Thanks mate 👍

Another great quality episode always enjoy your rides

[@MotoPassport]

Thanks mate really appreciate you watching my vids and taking the time to write

[@TwoWheelerSparky]

Looks like a great ride with some sneaky link roads thrown in 👌 I can appreciate it took a lot longer with all the camera angles!

[@MotoPassport]

@@TwoWheelerSparky I’ve been to Smiggins before and Link Rd was closed with a locked gate not this time though 😎 Yeh it’s an easy ride taking a few hrs to complete though add all the filming it took 2 days. I have never enjoyed filming a ride as much as this so you gotta love the process.

[@TwoWheelerSparky]

@@MotoPassport 2 Days! wow. It doesn't feel like work if you enjoy riding your bike and playing with cameras 👍

[@StephenDonnelly-e1r]

Great video work and great trip. Thanks

[@MotoPassport]

Thanks mate 👍

[@MurrayDavis-g9p]

Thanks for having us along for this ride…. A fantastic video & a great trip… huge effort in putting this together… I always enjoy your videos… until the next one … cheers

[@MotoPassport]

Cheers mate the ride was a heap of fun and I enjoyed the filming as well glad it all came to life in the vid, thanks heaps for always watching.

[@ADVBrett]

Mate what a trip!!! I've already started looking at the maps! Wow I was blown away by the snow too!! I haven't been to that region in 35+ years, your Perisher vision brought back some memories for sure! That's a MUST visit for me!

[@MotoPassport]

haha well I’m keen for another ride down to the Snowies anytime. It’s been a long time since you were there last so let’s make it happen same time next year hopefully with more snow.

[@ADVBrett]

@MotoPassport I think we'll make a plan for sure!

[@dooglesaerialphotography4118]

What a great video ,I’ve ridden the snake track many times ,my first job for a road crew was doing the snake track many times,I live in Bombala and know most of the roads as I ride them myself ,we live in an amazing part of the world 😊

[@MotoPassport]

Cheers man great to hear from a local rider. First up I’ve gotta say what a backyard you have, what an incredible place to ride. I’ve had the chance to ride a bit of Oz but I always come back to the Snowies. I’m from Syd so I hope I showed the magic of Monaro can’t wait to come back. Ride safe mate and appreciate you writing.

[@Nerb1]

Nice! Love the shot of snow flurries with a blue sky background! Ive been planning a trip which I will do this summer called over the great divide. Im going to be following the border from Mallacoota to Albury. Might be a little rough for the Caponard though... or will it?

[@MotoPassport]

Gday Nerb I was really lucky with the weather had a mix of all types fog, flurries etc so I’m lucky to capture it all on vid. Yeh your Great Divide trip and route sounds awesome riding right thru the middle and over the Snowies would love to watch that. Probs too technical for my Caponord unless it’s unsealed roads. Thanks for writing man appreciate it.

[@NakaNakaDerkaDerka]

Nice bike

[@MotoPassport]

Cheers man 👍 not bad for 10yrs old

[@mosa4688]

Big Jack Mountain road it has been closed for ages. Good to know it is open again and they haven't spoilt it by making it too smooth.. You missed a good alternate out of Cathcart, turn right onto Creewah Road and then New Line road are great.

[@MotoPassport]

@@mosa4688 I would have never thought Big Jack Mtn Rd was closed it was very well maintained and lots of fun. Thanks for the Cathcart tip def add this alternate route next time and thanks for writing 👍

[@MrEmrahkocaman]

Wow, feels like production quality just keeps going up. Thanks for all the effort mate. What a great ride ❤ I have a long leave coming in less than 6 weeks and adding this route to my list for sure.

[@MotoPassport]

@@MrEmrahkocaman Emrah thanks heaps for the kind words, bought new camera gear and a lot of effort went into to this vid. You will love the route it’s a great road trip thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish.

[@MrBeefa69]

Great video, thankyou! What a route and destination!

[@MotoPassport]

@@MrBeefa69 Thanks mate it def is an incredible destination with lots to see and enjoy on 2 wheels.

[@throttleridingadventures]

Kosta i can appreciate all the extra back tracking you say 300ks with the amount of going back getting camera more like 350ks the new camera is mint comes up nice on the big screen that snake track looked great awsome awsome good upload loved it

[@MotoPassport]

@@throttleridingadventures Cheers Mark I reckon you’re right probs worked out to be 350kms all up thou it’s a labour of love really enjoyed filming and editing this vid. I’m wrapped with the new camera too makes a big difference.

[@sausagesandwichSA]

Wow what a great ride..top job on the video 👍

[@MotoPassport]

Thanks mate for always checking out my vids glad you enjoyed this one, big effort and wrapped with the result.

[@MotoRidesAustralia]

This is an amazing video mate with some ripper shots. Looks like there is more snow there than there was during the season! 😜 I'm planning a somewhat similar ride for early next year, so this is great recon.

[@MotoPassport]

haha more snow now than during the season thats Brutal! 🤣 Well I'm not gonna lie I have used many of your vids for recon as well so cheers right back at ya. Thanks for the kind words took some effort this vid and come up pretty good.

[@demery01]

Another great video! Gee you put a lot of effort into the production - I always think how you get to a spot, decide to setup the camera, then do it again - then go back for the camera! Now I’m thinking you crossed on the Towamba River Bridge, shot some drone footage, then crossed back to Big jack mountain Rd? (RideDay)

[@MotoPassport]

Thanks David yeh it seems like a lot of work but I do love riding the Snowies and the filming side of it as well so I really wanted to put in a big effort for this one. I got to relive the trip when editing and I'm wrapped with the end result and as a added bonus the vid has been received well so was worth the effort.

[@nickkaratatis3780]

Hi mate. Just found your channel and loved this video. Thank you for mentioning all the roads, towns and areas you were. It helps for planning my own trip. Can I ask what tyres you are running? Thanks again, I’ll be subscribing today!

[@MotoPassport]

@@nickkaratatis3780 Thanks for writing Nick glad you loved the vid. I’m running Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR front and rear. I’ve been using them for yrs and also on a big trip across Oz and they were Awesome. Thanks for the sub

[@nickkaratatis3780]

@@MotoPassport thanks mate. Up to episode 5 on the across aus series. Loving it.

[@MotoPassport]

Awesome hope you enjoy the whole series 👍

[@photomoto5228]

Great video Kosta. The route looks fantastic, hopefully I will get a chance to try it one day.

[@MotoPassport]

@@photomoto5228 Pete it’s an incredibly spectacular and very enjoyable ride def one to add to the list.

[@stephencox4224]

North Island New Zealand south of Rotarua where you can go water skiing and snow skiing within an hours drive of each other also amazing

[@leondown6869]

Come to Oz. We get to ski on snow, ice, rocks, water and grass in the one run.

[@MotoPassport]

Man I love NZ had the best ride around the South Island almost crashed cus I was so distracted by the magnificent views. I read somewhere the furthest point from the ocean is only 100kms or something. Awesome stuff.

[@billweegink27]

I'm so blown away by your post as I'm going to Eden with some mates Next weekend & are breaking away from them taking the same route eg snake track & big jack mountain,jincumbilly then making my way to Albury & along the Murry. I'll be making a few changes thanks to your video.Thanks for showing & explaining your route. It has given me piece of mind for a great ride through that area. 😉👍. PS I'm interested in what tires your running on that bike Pirelli Scorpions? , would you recommend them ?

[@MotoPassport]

Far out that’s great timing then. Yup it’s all easy and really fun riding the whole way highly recommend it all. As you can see I’m on road bike with 17inch alloy rims so it’s not hard or technical at all. Yes I’m running Pirelli Scorpion STR and have been using them for years. I rate them as have abused them on my big across Australia trip without an any faults or punctures. They do the job very well it’s my skills that stop before the tyres do. Enjoy your trip man you’ll love it.

[@billweegink27]

@MotoPassport Thanks for taking the time to respond. Great video too by the way.😉👍

[@jimmy300x]

Excellent vid Costa, can I ask which quad chairlift you parked up under and is that still Link Rd? Cheers Jim

[@MotoPassport]

Hi Jim, follow Link Rd until you see the first chairlift then turn left onto the small side road that takes you to that chair lift it’s called Ridge Quad Chair. If you miss the turn off and keep following Link Rd you join Guthega Rd. It’s all easy when you’re down there. Hope that helps.

[@MotoRidesAustralia]

I thought you were at Freedom chair at the start, assuming you went around the back of Guthega.

[@MotoPassport]

Spewing I didn't ride all the way to Guthega as the snow fall was heavier out the back there. It's a poor excuse but I needed to be back in Sydney later that same evening so next time.

[@WayneHiggins-qi2qm]

Hey great video what tyres are you using they look good

[@MotoPassport]

Thanks mate, I’m running Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres been using them for years great tyres never had any issues or punctures.

[@ChrismediaVideos]

Great video, great locations. Can I ask what tyres you are running and your thoughts on them, also the tom tom navigation, how good is it in those areas? Very enjoyable video, I don't know what your day job is but you make a good production.

[@MotoPassport]

Hi Xristo thanks for watching and writing. I’m running Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres and can’t fault them been using them for yrs. I rode across Australia and abused them and they didn’t falter, no damage or punctures. Great tyres. My nav is a Tom Tom 450 about 10yrs old. It’s a good device but obviously not the latest and greatest does the job. Thanks Kosta

[@jcov182_88]

Don't see many Caponords about ❤️

The most underrated bike ever. I’ll never sell her she has taken me far and wide ❤️

@MotoPassport I've just got one a few months back and looking at doing the same, all the best in best 👍🏻

[@MotoPassport]

@@jcov182_88 Happy riding and enjoy your Capo 👍

[@2dogsstottie]

My intension was to do some of these roads myself on a 21 day 8500klm ride down from Queensland until I fell over in Canberra an had to end my trip there and return home on the 21st of October just gone. I was very interested in Snake Track and then Link Rd. Many thanks. I must ask though... What was the date that you did this ride?

[@MotoPassport]

Bugger! that’s only a couple of weeks ago and sounds like a crackn trip. I really enjoyed all the wildlife on the Snake track and Link Rd was a highlight especially getting off the main rd, being out there all alone and of course the snow fall. I was there 8th Oct. Hope that helps and you get out there in no time.

[@2dogsstottie]

@@MotoPassport Im going to attempt this again leaving Brizzy about the 13th of October 2025 and should be at Jindabyne about the 16th. But my torn Left shoulder AC needs to heal first. I tripped over in the carpark under parliament house 🤪🤪 LOL

[@MotoPassport]

@ yeh give yourself time to heal and give it another go next year. Oct is a great time and hopefully should still have snow about. Just unlucky bout tripping over these things happen I did my shoulder just picking up my eldest who woulda thought.
