Journey's End - Solo motorcycle camping adventure on a Royal Enfield Himalayan.

[@twinphill900]

That trip is among the best I've seen on KZbin. Excellent camera work and commentary. You definitely have amazing skills. 👍x10

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the series, there fun to makes so about to head off on the next one, the more I do hopefully the better I'll get at making them.

[@twinphill900]

@freewayproject I think you're pretty good now, mate. More power to ya.

[@marcbastien6054]

There are two youtube channels that have helped me define my own adventure perspectives. Yours, of course, where photography Jon's the motorcycle adventure in simplicity and good taste and "Le nez dans le moteur" a French "senior" film maker that's shows us how beautiful our countries are. Both of you, as I now, ride an himalayan. At 67 years of age, you inspire me to keep living the adventure of life lived to it's fullest. "Optimus temporibus" : the best of times! Thank you for being who you are!

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate, really glad you are enjoying the series, and yes it all about finding your adventure. I check out Le nez dans le moteur and his latest episode he rides over Le Mont Ventoux which is funny, I used to be a professional athlete based in Saint Paul Trois Chateaux in France near there and riding to the top was a weekly training ride (on a bicycle no engine back in the day).

[@neilmackinnon3371]

I've enjoyed every single video in this series, travelling vicariously while sitting in my office in the South West of England. Thank you for taking me along, it's been great.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks for the support Neil, glad you enjoyed the ride. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west..... that's all I have planned, I'll wing the rest. I hope the summer is kind over there this year so you can get out and ride.

[@gregdavis1341]

Enjoyed your videos mate Where next ?🙏

[@joebuck3397]

Wow. This is incredibly well done. One of the better moto-camping/Trip mini documentaries/films I've seen. Excellent work.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Joe, it's great to hear you enjoyed the series, there are are a few more series on the channel, one overt to the west coast of Australia and back, also one where I travel around New Zealand, and in a couple of weeks I'll be starting another series in some very tall mountains.

[@Pau1Paul]

Brilliant series, really enjoyed it. You deserve way more subs. Looking forward to whatever you show us next. Thank you

Thanks for the support Paul, glad you enjoyed the series, thinking of heading west on the next one....... that's as far as the planning has got 😂 but that's all ill need

[@happysnappylaura]

How lovely of that other rider to come along! What an adventure! Thank you for making such beautiful videos, it really feels like we’re on the road with you.

[@freewayproject]

Yes, it was awesome to have the guidance of the local. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the series.

[@antonoat]

Mate you really are a glutton for punishment, lol. Your film making is fantastic by the way! I really like the way the Himalayan is so old school, it really helps when things go tits up! It's a real treat for me being in the UK to see trips like this in real wilderness, it must take a certain amount of courage. Your films do have a feel good factor which just adds to the adventure! Cheers🍺👏😀👍

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it. Yes having a tried and true design, keeping it basic helps with reliability and easier to fix if things do go wrong. Someone once told me the bike looks like it just came out of an Indiana Joes movie haha

[@jamie.miller.inspiring]

Mate what an adventure, the funny thing is someone will read this comment some time in the future when you have 1m+ subs and without me mentioning you only had just under 8k when I wrote this, they will be stunned that they didnt find your amazing channel until they did. Sometimes we dont know what we are missing out on in life until we find them, you are one of them! Thank you for allowing me to live vicariously thru you, until i get my bike and start my own journey on two wheels because Im itching to ride, its funny with what ive spent on good quality riding gear i could have already bought a really cheap bike with that money haha but many good things come with patience :)

[@freewayproject]

I am glad you enjoyed the first series. You'll love it once you're out there exploring, there are so many places to explore. The bike, the gear, what exactly it is doesn't matter, just as long as you are out there using it.

[@nicolasghislain2332]

I just finished watching the show from the beginning. I had so much fun watching it that I wanted to thank you for your work. The adventure, the shots, the humor and the photos are the aspects that I liked the most. This is my first comment on YT so you understand that for me it means a lot. I will follow the rest with great pleasure. Good road. Nicolas.

[@freewayproject]

Thank you Nicolas, I am happy you have enjoyed the first series, they're a lot of fun to make so great to know when someone is really enjoying them. Hopefully the second series will be even better.

[@Bugonabike314]

A great Series Joe well done and thank you for your time and effort to film and photograph wonderful places and bring them to our lounge rooms What a magic trip Thanks Dave

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Dave, glad you enjoyed the first series. I am nearly finished the second series probably 3 more episodes to go in that one.

[@shawngreenwood7288]

Epic trip as I have been inspired. Winter is coming here in Northern Ontario Canada but your videos inspire me to plan for my own trip this spring 2025. So addictive. Making me want more. I think it is your style of story telling and of course your video photography is the best. Thank you.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Shawn, it great to hear you enjoyed that series, I can't wait to head back to Canada to explore, I have done a little bit of BC on an enduro bike through the forest and mountains which was amazing. There is also the New Zealand series that I have recently finished and on Friday the new series starts, there are a couple mountains in this one too.

[@martythompson6509]

I came for the motorcycle and the travel. Stayed for the stunning photography, lack of in video promotion and the dry sense of humour. 👍

Great journey! Hello and Thanks from Japan. Australia is the first country I visited. I fell in love with this country in two days. And, so, I bought a bike, Kawasaki (not Royal Enfield..).

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Joe, It's great to hear you enjoyed the series. Any bike that can take you to explore a places it the perfect bike. I hope to be able to explore Japan on a motorbike in the future. I have been many time but never ridden a motorbike there.

[@anthonya7066]

Great series Joe, looking forward to starting season 2! Appreciate the time and effort you put into it.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Anthony, I am happy you have enjoyed the first series. You'll have to let me know if I improve from the start of series one to the end of series 2 in front of the camera, to me it still feel awkward.

[@bradleyhicks4539]

This is a gorgeous documentary of the landscape and also of an epic road trip. Thank you!

Hey Joe, just watched the whole season in a few days. Stumbled onto it as a fellow Himalayan buddy. Fantastic stuff! Great filming, great scenery. Love your storytelling! I thought Australia was warm/hot! :D Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Cheers from NL.

[@freewayproject]

thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the first series. In the second series it gets more like you probably expect once I go north. Oh and the 3rd series that I just started begins in a heatwave 😂. More exploring to come.

Thanks Syumassh, glad you enjoyed the series. I am heading off in a few weeks on another ride, so there will be some new episodes coming. I hope your hands health quickly and you can get back out there, so much to explore.

[@cubgsan]

Good day to you! I am a grandpa rider on HONDA motorcycle from Japan. Enjoying camping ,touring and upload video. Your Camping video is so nice! Awesome! Full supported ! Have a nice day my friend!

[@freewayproject]

ありがとう、動画をお楽しみいただけて嬉しいです I have been to Japan many time, I really like. I got to Nozawaonsen near Nagano, snowboard for 5 season. I like exploring Tokyo too. I did a road trip from Osaka to Tokyo along the coast some much fun exploring your amazing country.

[@WadeMade]

I think the thing I love the most about this series is the fact your using a Himalayan. It's just proof you don't need the best or most expensive equipment to have an amazing experience. Plus, I might be biased because I own one.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate, yes it about getting out there with what ever you have, I couldn't afford a new Himalayan so bought mine second hand to start exploring sooner. The second series I push the bike a lot further, spoiler alert, it handed everything and just keep tractoring along.

[@WadeMade]

@@freewayproject That's awesome, I picked mine up second hand as well. Mine came with the panniers and I couldn't believe I never owned a bike with them before this. They are a game changer.

Hey Joe, new sub'er starting from the beginning. Excellent trip & filming. Can't believe Plummer Rd?! A lot different from surfing trips thru there in the 70s. Ouch. Himy looks like a goer, her poor clutch 😊

[@freewayproject]

I can only imagine how much the road has changed since then, it had changed a lot since I was there regular 20 years ago. Clutch survived and is still going strong after another 30,000km on it and traveling around Australia in the next series. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy the others.

Good on ya Mate! Inspiring film! I'm a Yank that left the US in 2021, and went to Mexico planning to buy a Himalayan and tour. But, on arrival, I found out I could not purchase and plate in in my own name. I suffered the rest of 21 without wheels, then went to Thailand to ride in the spring of 22, purchased a 22 350 Classic, and rode for six months. Back in Mexico now, but picking up a 23 Himalayan in the US soon, and back at it.

[@ashleymoore8]

Hey Joe. Stunning 😉 I thoroughly enjoyed your series - a real cracker. At last there's someone who can ride a bike, tell us a story AND use a camera (and post) to give us a top quality result. I watch a lot of moto vloggers (some with 1M+ subs) and I think you're one of the few who can nail all 3 - a triple threat as they say. I really enjoy that you research the places you're going to and you give us a bit of the history behind each place; and its not just here's a road, here's some corners, here's a town, this is what I ate from breakfast and that's where I slept. There's no BS in your vids - no stunts, no gimmicks, no 'lets do something stupid' for click bait. My only minor suggestion would be to feature some of the locals a little more - not much - just a smidge more. There are other moto vloggers who swing too far in that direction and spend 80% of our time talking with the locals, and we only get to see a few mins of riding and the scenery. I do enjoy hearing from the locals and their stories - it adds the richness of the story - but it can be overdone. Anyhow keep it up. Keep travelling, keep filming, keep giving us a history lesson, and keep enjoying yourself and taking us along with you. I wish you the all best and hope you gain a strong following. I hope you get to ride in NZ one day - I can't wait to see NZ through your lens if you do - you'll have find another word to use tho since stunning is reserved for Tas 🙂

[@freewayproject]

Thanks for the support William, glad you enjoyed there series. thanks for the suggestions, I didn't really have a plan on how I was going to film the journey so it was really like a test run. I'll hopefully refine it in the next one and take your suggestions onboard. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west…..that's all I have planned, so the rest will just be winging it. But the next trip after that I am planning on heading to NZ. I have heard around February March April is a good time. I'll have to do a lot more research for that one. I am gathering there are a thousand place to see. It would be good to get on dirt roads and tracks for most of it. Are you allow to free camp over there?

[@ashleymoore8]

@@freewayproject I like that you’re a bit lose with your plans and you don’t overplan it 👍 Re NZ. I don’t think you’re allowed to free camp over there you must camp in a designated camping spot with facilities from memory. I went in Sept. Don’t go in Sept - it pretty much rained the whole time. Research on Feb - from memory they had a lot of rain in Feb this year. I reckon Oct might be ok to capture spring colours or Mar / Apr to capture the Autumn colours. I guess it depends on whether you’re going to the NI or SI. So many great roads there even if you stay on the tar. Off road would be next level

I absolutely loved watching your journey. you have a great personality and i find your content refreshing and quite serene. I can tell you spend a lot of time and effort on the production of your videos. So, thank you for making such wonderful videos for us to watch and for taking us along on your adventures and i look forward to seeing more of them mate.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the series. I am about to head off again in a week or 2, this time heading west.

[@jasontaylor8412]

Thanks for the journey joe thoroughly enjoyed the series, cant wait for the next adventure you take us on, seeing those cane fields made me wonder if your north of the gold coast we are probably neighbors. Once again thanks mate and ride safe.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks for the support Jason, glad you enjoyed the series, I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west..... that's all I have planned, I'll wing the rest. I am on near the NSW / QLD border those cane fields are near Murwillumbah, I just have to find somewhere where I can ride my dirt bike in sand to skill up, then ride the Himalayan in it, the only real issue I have had is when I get to deep sand 😂 but there's another really close, how well it will be paddling through the sand for a bit longer.

[@resin8n]

Thanks heaps, love the photography, I too love photography and riding. Mainly road riding, though you've inspired me to consider the Himalayan for a trip. Cheers!!

[@freewayproject]

Thank Bill, glad you enjoyed the series. I am on the next trip and well I tried to test the limits of the Himi but couldn't reach it, I was handing on for dear life and it just kept going through some serious terrain. That will be in the first few episode when I get a chance to edit and upload.

[@seandutoit9537]

What a summary , just stunning Joe

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Sean, glad you enjoyed it.

[@MrRabbitthumper]

Hey Joe. Thanks for this amazing series. Really enjoyed every one of your videos (and ALL your pics!). Also, thanks for helping me decide to get a Himalayan!! I'm picking it up next Wednesday! Cheers mate!

[@freewayproject]

Really happy you enjoyed the series Roger. Stoked you're getting a new bike, it will be a lot of fun.

[@MrRabbitthumper]

@Joe Ryan looking forward to having my experiences with it. I'm planning a moto-camping 3-nighter mino-vacay at the beginning of August. This is going to be SO DIFFERENT from the Africa Twin I expect. Stay safe, and looking forward to your next vidéos. Cheers!

[@ricmoffet6843]

Really enjoyed it Joe, hope you have a few more in the future. Those bikes just keep going and going.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Ric, glad you enjoyed there series. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west…..that's all I have planned, so the rest will just be winging it.

[@Flamamacue]

What a beautiful trip mate, and incredible storytelling/filming. You've convinced me there's absolutely no better way to explore this country. As a Port local that's finally got the Himalayan I ordered a few months ago I appreciate seeing firsthand the condition of that Crescent Head track! I did it in 2020 in RAV4 that got stuck and even then it wasn't that bad. Because you mentioned the tracks inland from Coffs - if you haven't been through Dorrigo, Bellingen etc, definitely add those to the list. Never Never Creek is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to and the swimming is phenomenal, the countryside around is spectacular and Dorrigo mountain has some great twisties for the bike. Dangar falls nearby also. It's also a great road through the New England National park to Point Lookout which has incredible views, one of the highest points in the region and you can see all the way down to Port. Whatever the next adventure is cant wait to tune in!

[@freewayproject]

Thanks for the support Chris, glad you enjoyed the series. Yes that road is getting rough around the edges. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west but I may have to come a bit south first haha.

[@scottmckinnon3475]

Loved your series, the best motorcycle journey I've seen, so inspirational has made me get out and explore our glorious country, can't wait to see your next trip

[@freewayproject]

Thanks for the support Scott, glad you enjoyed the series. Hopefully I can get better at telling the stories in the next series. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west…..that's all I have planned, so the rest will just be winging it.

Loved watching your series here from Canada. I love your bike I ride a DR650 here in Canada.

[@freewayproject]

thanks David, ah the tank of bike, the DR will go over anything and just keep going 👌🏻. I am a big fan of Canada, I have spent a lot of time in BC, and a lot of that in Squamish and on Vancouver island explore there.

[@davidramsay7803]

Oil change & maybe some clutch plates an you're good to go. Rode that Port track last year, hasn't improved😂 Thanks for a fabulous series on this month long ride that I suspect took 3 😁. Look forward to the next one. Cheers

[@freewayproject]

yes the beast (Himalayan) can take some punishment from me, makes up fro my lack of ability, apparently I did burn the clutch plates right out but we are looking out it now to see if I should put some fresh ones in. Thanks for the support David, glad you enjoyed the series. I am thinking of heading west on the next one....... that's as far as the planning has got 😂 but that's all I'll need to start. The ride took just ver a month, the editing took me about 3, trying to fit it in between other projects.

[@beretgascon]

Absolutely excellent series - thoroughly enjoyed every minute. easily rivals Itchy Boots and YOU didn't switch from a Royal Enfield to a Honda!! Good on yer, mate!! Hello, from a fellow Himalayan addict, from 🇫🇷 to 🇦🇺 !

[@freewayproject]

Glad you enjoyed the series François, yes the rHimalayan is getting the job done, getting me everywhere I want to go. I head off soon on the next long ride.

[@shaned187]

Thank you Joe! I really enjoyed this series. I came here initially to research the Himalayan as I'm up for a new bike soon and stuck around for the amazing story telling, I'm inspired to plan a Tassie trip for later this year and finally tick it off the list. Your camera work, commentary and editing really sets you apart from most on here. I'm looking forward to seeing your success on here in the future and will follow you along the way.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks Shane, I am heading off this week so as soon as I can start editing I'll start uploading the next journey.

[@brownneedles6968]

How did I not get before that you are a filmmaker? Just happened to read your bio before this one where you tell more of the story. This is just for fun. I relish getting to experience your journey. Wonderful storytelling, friend!

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate, yes I have been doing the film thing for a while, this stuff feels very slapped together and rushed compared to what I normally do, but I am still enjoying it.

[@thelostphotographer1438]

Love your work Joe awesome to see your work first class.

[@freewayproject]

Thanks mate. glad you enjoyed some of the first series. I'm about to head off again, this time west..... that's all I have planned 🤣🤣

[@jdplatt7120]

Great work Joe. Thanks alot for the inspiration, I just bought a Himalayan myself. Time to explore!!

[@freewayproject]

Thanks J D, glad you enjoyed the series. Yes get out there and explore, ride down any track the Himi's are build to explore. I am going to head off on the next adventure soon, I think I'll head west…..that's all I have planned, so the rest will just be winging it.
