+Joe Wehmeyer thanks Joe!! Appreciate the support and glad you enjoyed!! Stay tuned for the rest of the series :)

[@TheTravelingTogetherJournal]

really great

[@aravindkrishnan7498]

I agree... But the colour grading is a bit extreme, in my opinion. I think, with your editing style, a truer colour tone will be better.

[@oceandrew]

+Aravind the colours are totally true during daylight hours. So they push it a tad during the golden hour or in the evening but it sure beats grainy noisy plugged up shadows and overexposed highlights. I have to disagree with you, they are doing a great job with the cinematography.

[@RevZilla]

We too enjoy our _motorbicycles_ haha. Looks like your journey is off to a great start! -DrewZilla

[@vagabrothers]

+RevZilla cheers guys! Big fans on your site, got lots of parts and supplies from it. Stay tuned for the rest of the series 🤙🏽🏍

[@RevZilla]

Aw shucks. Thanks! -DrewZilla

[@mvc582]

Cold Springs Tavern is the best, such a nice little hidden gem up in the mountains. I always love seeing you guys travel through the central coast and letting everyone see its beauty that we get to enjoy every day! Great video!!

[@vagabrothers]

+mvc582 Central Coast is the best part of California. It's so gorgeous :)

[@satya4uall]

California rocks..I was there in USA this January and visited Sandiego, santamonica and Los angeles..and not to miss Mt Baldy snow mountains..keep adventuring!!

[@nirusinghr]

It's been a while since I have watched your videos. Glad I am back for this! Enjoy the trip guys !

[@vagabrothers]

+Nirupam Singh good to have you back. You've missed a lot! Gotta catch up :)

[@nirusinghr]

Hahah yes, one video at a time!

[@davidholt1250]

Hard to beat California really. I lived there for years and it always amazed me how beautiful it is. Too bad it's also over crowded, expensive and congested with traffic. Thirty or forty years ago it must have been close to paradise.

[@Mark-yn5lt]

It was. Hard to believe how wide open it was. Now it's a mess.

[@withlovekarley1885]

Guys this is giving me all kinds of feels. I grew up on the California coast and riding the PCH up north is just so special. Thanks for the great content, super inspiring.

[@nirish25]

You lads have some serious filming , editing skills.

[@vagabrothers]

+Niall T thank you Niall :) stay tuned for the rest of the series 🙌🏼

[@Kaasbaas1234]

What is the triumph bike called?

[@epas1tibetan16]

+Mollie tol bonneville

[@Kaasbaas1234]

Oh wow i dont know how i couldn't have seen that lol

[@2cwn2]

My fiancé wants a motorcycle and I lost track of how many times he said, "that's sweet!" during this video! Excited for the Big Sur video!!

[@Eli-tq8fj]

I got goosebumps in your previous videos when you guys mentionned that senegal is top destination. Im from there and we are the country of hospitality!! Thk u for going!!

[@MeatandMotorcycles]

I ride and vlog in NYC but am originally from Southern California. Great series! Really brings it all back. g

[@vagabrothers]

+Meat and Motorcycles cheers! Ride safe :)

[@kennyblankenship2020]

My wife and I have driven this route in a Camaro ragtop. I still rave about it and especially the Cold Springs Tavern. The Gainey Winery in the Saint Ynez mountains was awesome. Love your stuff. Keep it coming!

[@SameerDharmasastha]

One of the finest Travelogue I have even seen on YT. I will watch the whole series . All the best...

[@vagabrothers]

+Sameer Dharmasāstha many thanks :)

[@vagabrothers]

+Spencer Turnbull Yew! Three more Videos coming soon!

[@mikemalone2834]

I enjoyed this video, the Paso Robles to the coast via Nascimento Ferguson was my favorite since I lived in Paso for 21 years and drove that road hundreds of times in a 1960 VW bus to Big Sur. I lived in Big Sur for 5 years, it brought me back to some of the best summers in my life.

[@lindsaymccormick9607]

Getting my motorcycle license next week and this gets me soooo pumped!

[@brookepileggi6645]

My heart and soul misses the central coast. Thank you for taking me along for the ride.

[@nikoochuu]

[@jessicarossman2966]

Yes! SB! I love seeing how you guys captured it. I can't count how many times I have camped off of Paradise and gone to the Cold Springs. You did a great job showing off the central coast.

[@jcbaily5559]

Fantastic....I am ready to get in my little Ford Fiesta and follow your footsteps...thanks for the encouragement.

Oh my gosh guys! Just when I thought your videos couldn't get any better, there you go and raise the bar! This is so good! For what it's worth, I believe every journey should be blessed so as I watched this I wished you both a very safe and satisfying journey. Love and light to you both and everyone you encounter along the way.

[@alexandretalbert]

Nice video guys! I am from Brazil and going with family to California in July! Keep posting.

[@SimplyShannonK]

This is such a fabulous video. I just took this road up to SF with my brother and although it was very cloudy when I drove up past Malibu it was still a great time.

[@thejasvinbm3342]

[@kegsemptygarage6788]

Thanks for the video. Came across it looking for more info. Did this trip 2 years ago with my Ural sidecar and my wife. Going again next week with my dad starting in Santa Barbra Can’t wait. Thanks again for new spots to hit

[@NoleDoc954]

Love the video. My family and I trekked up the PCH in a mini van. I would love to try this on a motorcycle thought. Definitely a cooler more thrilling experience.

Living the dream bro! 34 years old. Been wanting to get out there for years! Visited a few times. But didn’t move. Was just about to but I didn’t have the guts cause a lot happened. I’m always so happy out there tho. Sleep great with the ocean

[@AgneseCA]

I'm not keen on motorcycles but these are veery nice places! Thank you for sharing and showing around your homeland 😃

[@sashalino1574]

Amazing video!! Beautiful views!!!

[@gizzmo2z]

Stepping it up on all fronts! Loved it. We still have the El Camino Real up here in the Bay Area - it goes all the way up the Peninsula.

[@kristenhavlik8592]

Alex! I'm moving to LA soon and I keep hearing having a motorcycle is essential in crazy traffic. Could you do a series on your channel about how to get into motorcycles for beginners?!

[@tunnodule5166]

Good to be the Vagabrothers!!

[@emilynaylor7782]

Awesome video, amazing editing!! What software do you use? Thanks

[@huyked]

Nice!!! 💖 I'll be there soon💖 Great video! 💖

[@gsoffice6402]

What everyone else has said! 12 minute vid of beautiful fun, thank you! We figure we subbed well over year ago, someone watching one of FunforLouis or Sawyer's videos and saw thumbnail on Basque Country; I remember next day seeing several Post-it notes on monitors saying "check out Vagabrothers on KZbin" and everyone talking about the bros Basque bloopers. LOL

[@sofiafuentes6633]

ROCINANTE *-* Really? OMG I loooved the name ! great video guys

[@alepalacios850]

Awesome video guys. Now I want to go to Cali so bad 😬😢🦄

[@debramoss4089]

Thanks for all the information as well

[@slitluti]

Me encanta su edición! 👌

[@goat3214]

Hey vagabrothers, I'm relatively new to your channel just found it a couple weeks ago and I love it! I'm going to be a senior in high school and was wondering if you had any advice on what to do after high school if I love traveling. I've been thinking about taking a year off before college and traveling to different places around the world, Is this a good idea, would it be better to wait a little, what do you think?

[@briancortez2300]

Yeww! A fellow gaucho, I just discovered cold spring tavern about a month ago hidden jem for sure!

[@vagabrothers]

+brian cortez the best!! Ole ole ole

[@andreleclere9129]

Nice video, thanks for the sharing!!!

[@IronMauOficial]

Como siempre un gran trabajo y si es relacionado con motos mucho mejor, me gusta la corrección de color que utilizan bajando la saturación

[@vagabrothers]

+Mauricio Treviño gracias Mauricio! Mas videos vienen!

[@jamiecee4960]

Beautiful Drive.

[@davidfernandez9114]

Hands up for Rocinante! Genialidad!

[@vagabrothers]

+David Fernández 🙌🏼

[@hemachandra8352]

Enjoyed watching. Just curious, Which softwares do you use to edit these amazing videos? And do you use drones too?

[@thecleaningteacher638]

I think we need a behind the scenes for this trip. How are y'all getting all your sweet aerial shots? I'm very curious about the planning and editing process for this series. Spectacular footage!

[@mihir8701]

Best road trip video on the internet!!

[@vagabrothers]

+Mihir Kambli just wait for the rest of the series!!!

[@mihir8701]

how about uploading a editing tutorial??

[@deepashrirane5473]

you guys are inspiration....your videos have given me some serious wanderlust! hope I would be doing this someday! loads of love from India! do visit India! ❤️😊

[@NYanks278]

You guys have to check out San Luis Obispo and Avila Beach along the way also stop at Chacho's in Oceano

[@kyotokat8543]

You guys are on fire! 🔥

[@TheTravelingTogetherJournal]

Along with everyone else I'm enjoying this one. Maybe it's because we are Overlanders. Driving that much and filming that much is hard work isn't it? I'm planning a bike the coast trip with my sister for once we get back to the states.

[@platanopapi]

I knew Marko's would be Rocinante before he said it. Lit nerds for the win. That was also the name of Steinbeck's camper he took across the US.

[@ItaRoby]

I don't know how to ride, but I'm a great passanger! Dream trip for real
