East coast of Australia five day adventure ride︱Cross Training Adventure

Warning: this is now an old vid with relatively crappy resolution... but still fun! Five bikes, five days and as much dirt as possible from Brisbane to Nymboida National Park in NSW and back. DR650, two DRZ400s, a KTM 690R and a TE610. Awesome route, would highly recommend if you like some bush bashing with your adventure riding! This is a very old video now from back when we were just filming our dirt rides - eventually we created a separate enduro channel and this became our adventure riding channel! ︱

My wife and I just put a deposit down on a new baby dual purpose bike each. Now we have 2.5 months of watching your videos before we go out and enjoy them on the many trails NSW has to offer. Longest wait ever but when it happens... I love your videos. So real.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

You should be well placed, I reckon NSW would be the second best state at least for lots of great adv riding....

[@iant5909]

Made it look easy when so much obviously went into making it happen. Planning, scenery, mateship, adventure, had the lot. Brilliant!!!

[@downunderjuice]

What a cracking group of nerdowells and no hopers. The genuine mate ship and bottom of the belly laughter shines right through. Fantastic video, again.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

All are confirmed miscreants, reprobates and descendants of convicts, Jeff!

[@downunderjuice]

@@crosstrainingadventure This video also confirms that more than a couple have a learning disability and very poor hygiene habits.

[@charger2595]

Yep something about this video, I still find myself watching it even after the first time many years ago, been adventuring around this area a few times now and never gets old. Love it

[@crosstrainingadventure]

Thanks for the reminder, I've been planning to rewatcht it myself lately.

[@alren8477]

Awesome, bloody amazing how beautiful our country is. You've captured what its all about. Adventure riding with mates doesn't get much better than this !!

[@crosstrainingadventure]

I'm really hoping I get to do this again some time in the next year but film it really well... and with a drone too perhaps. The lucky country for sure.

[@cakeshoe]

Came back to watch this video again. I love watching the fun you guys had.

[@gospelhabitus]

as someone new getting into riding... videos like this show me i'm in for a life of awesome fun!

[@tommeytommey2742]

He's a lumberjack and he's okay 👍... cracked me up! Looks like a great time out with your mates enjoying an adventure together. Those are some nice trails and primitive roads. Nice not to see strip mall everywhere like here. Looks like a great time! Thanks for sharing...

[@MrRus67]

What a awesome trip, with the best group of people. Loved every minute of it. Just found you and a fan of your pure useful fact presentation. 🤙🏽

[@crosstrainingadventure]

Thanks Russel! This is a very old video now but I'm hoping to start doing similar trips and film them properly with a drone and other cameras too. There is some exceptional riding on the east coast of Australia.

[@GabrielQShanahan]

Absolutely love this guys! Planning on buying the dr650

[@PDXMILO]

Thanks for the entertaining video! You've sold me on the DR650 for sure!

[@Johnny-rn7pq]

Looks like heaps of fun fellas, can't wait to finish this build and hopefully join you on a couple ride's.

[@johnnyturbo8460]

Love it! Looks like such a good time with beautiful scenery

[@gordonmckinney6952]

"Where the fuck are we....this can't be a track"! Hilarious, love it.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+Gordon McKinney our fault for just trusting the maps lol

[@MrRohBert]

old but gold... i still love your videos ^^ ... and searching for a good dr 650 tooo thanks men, greatings from germany

[@ronniebumgarner5727]

Very well done, the love and friendship is everything. The ride Priceless

[@W4iP3]

6:42, Power Napping. On extended rides, the rider should take every chance he gets to restore energy, even better if it's done after jumping a log.

[@kenwolfe5697]

really enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing.

[@jerrycrum6404]

Great video you guys captured what dualsport is all about in every detail

[@gospelhabitus]

what more could you want??? love it!

[@megaidiot]

Thanks for sharing this (and for all the stuff on this and other channels).

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+megaidiot no probs megaidiot, we'll keep pumping them out as long as we are having fun with them :D

[@billrowse2266]

absolutely love this video

[@karlschweizer2554]

[@tazyt3388]

Such a great vid mate old school like it should be loved it

[@whatever5818]

Couldn't help but laugh when ur guy did a wheelie and went into the trees lol great videos u look as if u had a great time :)

[@Hanibaltherogue]

Maann, the friendship, the country, the adventure... so jelous. Hope some day i will be able to see your beautifull country, and go on a trip with friends like you did. My respect to all of you. greetings from turkey.

[@Braapncamp]

Just watched your video again, great video and fun advriding. Australia looks perfect for this.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

Mattias Eriksson it's not bad riding, generally all the dirt roads start about 40 mins out from the city and just go forever if you link them up correctly. :-)

[@jacatijagago1233]

Mate you have the best dirt bike channel on KZbin! Very educational and all inspiring, I'm selling my bike and getting a KTM 690.

[@ants158]

Getting jealous, awesome nature, great views, nice bikes superb video!

[@davidpearson3390]

Ive been riding this part of the world for over 30 years and am still discovering new roads and tracks,its the best country on earth,from its rivers and scenic mountains,why would you want to go anywhere else.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

David Pearson we are definitely spoilt for choice here!

[@Walrus60]

Absolutely fantastic video and what a great mob of blokes.

[@ericbyers9554]

Just shows you do not need big expensive bikes to hav fun

[@mrcina8621]

Picking up my beast in two days can't wait, good work mate enjoying your videos 👍

[@dragomirionut5992]

Great video, beautiful adventure. Want some...😎😂

[@sinnsmd]

Awesome video, looks like an awesome trip, very jealous!! :)

[@graygone2627]

Mate that was a great vid. I watched it all the way through..looks like a great tiem.

[@Wolfdog370]

Awsome stuff .. about to do a similar one in September .. Beaudesert to Taylor's arm for an overnighter and back

[@levisalvini4110]

Nice Adventure guys!!!

[@mcschneiveoutdoors3681]

Great video!! Love the commentary supplied.

[@BigBikeAdventures]

Another great video, looks like some great tracks.

[@rockyraccoon4]

A great watch... Thanks for sharing..!!!

[@elij.s.7580]

I wish I lived in Australia and had friends who did this

[@terrywest5735]

I saw that you encountered the native American tribe going into the first single track section of your ride. I didn't know the Fu Ka We tribe had relatives in Australia! Good stuff mate!

[@crosstrainingadventure]

😂

[@MrStreetwise]

I'm in Brissy and am keen to give this a go....

[@pebimandog1]

Looks like a great trip boys

[@TheMaddybaddy]

That is just fantastic!

[@2CabrasLocas]

1:38 that KTM is the real Bush Pig! LOL!!!

[@alexmorton8659]

Awesome video guys, keep it up! Perhaps come visit down in Tassie and do another, I may join?

[@crosstrainingadventure]

thanks alex! i've been to tassie a few times, there are heaps of vids over on the cross training enduro channel. unfortunately it's at the invitation of a group down there, so invite only. :(

[@AndreaswwwF-GSde]

Great job, great team and a great trip Most important to me had been yr individual explanations about the meaning of advriding...yepp, that it is take care guys and many many further miles for all of you ! with kind regards frm the other side of mother earth Andreas

[@crosstrainingadventure]

Andreas@ www.F-GS.de Dank Andreas, es ist ein toller Sport , wenn mit guten Freunden geteilt!

[@AndreaswwwF-GSde]

secretgardenproject ...100% agree :) !

[@osimnod]

Was this before or after the DR 650 FFRC make-over series? Am guessing you rode a stock bike here. Impressive variety of tracks, stream crossings and maintained roads.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

way way before, osimnod. but many of the same mods done!

[@peterlamb4730]

Great vid guys!

[@edobi1000]

Great!! video i really enjoyed it a lot. man i wish i could do something like that. i will one day soon once i get my a new Suzuki Dr650. videos like this always inspire me and my dream. thank you so much for this video. =)

[@tgmotz]

What a blast!

[@JacobHayden]

Another Great Adventure ride guys awesome I wish I was on it with y'all I just traded my street bike for a brand new 2013 dual sport last week

[@StuHNomadBiker]

Awesome video guys!! you must have thousands of square kilometres out there to ride dirt bikes, here in the UK theres hardly anywhere, 5 day adventure...we'd be lucky to have 5 hours the way all the rules and laws are going..

[@xontheweb2376]

Love the UK but boy, what I'd give to join a wild bunch like you and head off the paths out there. I don't know if you were very well prepared with topography et al, or if you got lucky at times and improvised a path. Great times, thanks for sharing.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

had the gps with topo maps so we weren't badly lost at any point. plus we deliberately look for snotty terrain if we get bored with the dirt roads and mountain views. :-)

[@albijohnson]

Here I am doing it a little tough at the moment, then come across this again and suddenly the world's a better place 😀 When's the next DR650 upgrade movie set for release? I'm living those too. Thanks so much for everything

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+albijohnson just about do the first suspension episode on the DR albi :)

[@thnderdownunder9514]

I live in Coffs Harbour, if you ever come down here again you should ask around the locals anyone who rides knows of an awesome little place called the quarry. One of the best places!

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+Jerry._.Bruh will do jerry, planning on the occasional longer adv ride but one day i wouldn't mind buying a van then go exploring the east coast with the dirt bike too :)

Heyo, I'm from Mullaway. Are you talking about the quarry right near Woolgoolga?

[@thnderdownunder9514]

Yeah, I live in Arrawarra haha and ride through the trails all the time, heaps of fun.

[@StoopidSmith323]

awesome ride

[@faraingwarai536]

what i would do to have such an adventure... Biking for days, forging rivers and campsite sunsets....il drop everything for a trip... take me with u Man..

[@rex4x4]

How the hell are your views not through the roof ?? These videos are epic ... Great editing and content ... WOW ... Are u not using proper tags ??? I just don't get it ?? Great vids guys

[@dexterquincy1]

THANKS, this was great.

[@nunoalmeida5736]

love it guys, whish i was there to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@itsRDtime]

Nice vid man :-) looks like fun

[@mikediscombe1132]

Bloody oath!! loven it

[@webmasterguru7799]

Great vid guys

[@crosstrainingadventure]

thanks, it's a very old one now so i'd love to start redoing these trips but film them with our much better camera gear. i'm saving up for a DR650 now...

[@lyellbro1]

Nice job 👍👍👍

[@BrapBang]

I really enjoy your videos. We do the same riding up here in Washington State. I make videos like you do, not for views but for buddies. Well done!

[@Rangerglx]

I'm like dang.....get on the right side of the road around those corners.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+Mike Pinnell and technically we are riding upside down too mike :)

[@cheapvodka9942]

now i want to move there talk about back country could use a little of that in my life

[@justicenotobedience4176]

Ass grabin at the ltex servo. nice. ( boys will be boys song cums to mind) that kind of ride interest me, and getting some what enthused. I will check out more of your videos, lets see what happens, the love the bush pig.65 thanks boys excellent work.

[@charlesissleepy]

suzuki and ktm should be paying you to advertise their bikes

[@fedswithful]

I miss this content..

[@yuvalluski]

Great video.

[@CK310SO]

Really nice!

[@bradsanders6954]

The Husky big singles are great wheelie/broadslide bikes.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

thanks rex. just doing the vids for the guys on the ride and post them on a forum or two, not really doing much to actually promote them. and probably do have the wrong tags... :-)

[@banditderek]

Wow, top trails! i wanna go!!

[@Wrguitar941]

Nice id love trails like that here honda250l enduro is mine

[@michalistripsgr]

Next time give us some rivers and creek crossings :) Amazing vid !! well done and thanks for sharing !

[@IRQ1Conflict]

Amazing!

[@rustycage6993]

Great vids thanks for sharing as always.Toying with the idea of getting a drz 650 (never thought I would say that) and customizing for adventure riding... seems to be a good and economical option v the $24K for the kato 1190. Have seen you mods vids for the dr.... thanks

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+Rusty Cage they are a good old fashioned bike, rusty cage. mind you, if you are in the US then the XR650L could be a good option too... they haven't been sold here for years though. :(

[@rustycage6993]

+ADVENTURE OZ thanks Yes i know the XR great old bike. I had a XR400 moons ago and it was the most reliable bike I've owned. Ride a KTM 530 now with fellow gumby enduro crew. Think the DR would be a good on /off get away bike if your not expecting a bike that does either very well. I'm in Victoria and get a good laugh at your Vids

[@nicktrucktor497]

Would you be able to share your route. My mate and I want to start adventure riding and this seems like a great beginning. Thanks.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

Nick Trucktor i've posted most of stuff on trans australia tracks in the qld and nsw sections, just google for the site.

[@amndaxav4089]

Good song God bike dr650 I'm going to boy one

[@JorgeGonzalez-ei6ft]

Any of you boys going to the Alice Springs rally in Augast, and possibly riding there and back?

[@crosstrainingadventure]

having been adventure riding at all the past two years jorge :(

[@JorgeGonzalez-ei6ft]

ADVENTURE OZ bummer man. Really wanted to ride on those tracks you used to go south at some point with you guys.lol ohh well. If you plan to pick it up again let me know. A question if i may. Is the snail trail group still operating?

[@pfilipt]

Hey guys! Love the video, but what are the saddlebags that you are using on the KTM?

[@sleekitwan]

Almost makes me use the word 'awesome', but let's stick with the banal observation that it is a great-looking trip in a special part of the world. Well put-together and rounded documentary conveys it better than most, that's for sure. Now, can I a) get knobbly tyres for my Diversion 600/Seca II and b) find a road not on the map?! I live in the UK, are you kidding me? If my face gains a new wrinkle, the thing gets satellite-imaged in HD resolution and grows a set of GPS coordinates. If you live in London, the same thing is true, but of your bum as well.

[@crosstrainingadventure]

+sleekitwan Diversion 600/Seca? i had to google that one then just realised it's an XJ at heart. is that a UK version of the beast, sleekitwan?

[@cheaterninja]

looks epic

[@74KU]

8:35 so that is where this clip is from! All over the place that little 8 second snip..

[@paulmclean9192]

Have you removed some of your old adventure videos?

[@crosstrainingadventure]

yeah i've made a few of them unlisted paul, for various reasons.

[@MrBlunders70]

beef with tortellini the great feed of all ANZAC's

[@holeephuk]

Awesome

[@macsiggi]

love this. can somebody tell me what the music is called? can't find it

[@crosstrainingadventure]

***** two of us are musos so some of the tracks are ones we composed ourselves, others are just free non-copyright loops from the flash tool kit website.

[@macsiggi]

aaah ok thanks. still a pitty though, doesn't sound like i can just buy them on itunes or sth similar :P

[@PRTEVYBMW]

RIDE ON BROTHERS:) CHEERS;)

[@banditderek]

Nice camera work, lots of different angles

[@junun007]

Great vid, makes me want to trade in my CBR

[@brianc.843]

Where are the Crocodiles mate? Awesome ride!

[@crosstrainingadventure]

a few thousand km to the north thankfully :D

[@zukablyat]

nice !!!!!

[@twohands_can]

"where the fuck are we" hahahahah

[@theniceguy27]

when your out there, how do you know if your on private property or not...not keen on angry farmers with guns
