When I was six, my father died in a motorcycle accident. My mother objected to getting a motorcycle license. However, I couldn't give up, and when I became an adult, I got my long-cherished motorcycle license, and I'm still a biker for more than 40 years. My dream was to cross the United States with my wife, but my wife passed away and I got cancer and it became an unfulfilled dream. But I will ride my favorite bike until I die. From different countries, I support young people's dreams and adventures.

A year ago, at 35 years old, I was diagnosed with a degenerative bone disease in my right ankle. I had to give up on all of my outdoor hobbies, as they were far too brutal on my ankle bone. While recalibrating my life, I remembered a guy on a bike I spoke with ten years ago who had the same disease I have, but his had advanced to amputation. I had never ridden a motorcycle, but I realized that was the perfect redirect for jujitsu, skating, snowboarding, running, and racquetball. I bought a Ninja 650 before I even learned to ride it. But learn I did, and within six months of getting my motorcycle license I went on a 3000 mile ride through Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, and Wyoming. It was a depression miracle cure. My only regret is not getting a bike 15 years ago. If any of you are thinking "i want to do this, but I don't have the X (money, time, knowledge, etc), just do it. Buy an older japanese bike, take an MSF class, buy beginner gear, (it'll be about 500 bucks total), and go places.

I'm from Argentina. In 1979 I went to Chicago to visit my uncles and cousins. I bought there a Suzuki GS 425N and made two trips. One to the west, Colorado, and the other to the east, New Hampshire near the Canadian border. Including turnarounds the total mileage was over 6500. Jake, your videos make me remember those wonderful times I spent in the U.S. We both share that feeling of riding alone into and endless horizon.

I'm an Englishman and in a much smaller way I was doing this back in the 90's going around England, Wales and Scotland. Unfortunately then we didn't have GoPro, satnav or mobile phones, just the bike, a tent, a sleeping bag and a map. Watching these has bought it all flooding back and I feel like i really need/want another road trip! Anxiety of the unknown held me back for so long but once under way I found it very easy to do, just did week-long trips and made it up as I went along. Although the UK is much smaller than USA I saw sights of my own country I will never forget, I learned I could rely on myself and I cherish the memories so much, I feel they truly helped shape who I am now. Do it! Try it! We only get one go around so why not make it count? Depending on where you are , start small, it doesn't HAVE to be an epic trip like this but a small start will tell you much about yourself and prepare you for the longer trips if you ever want to do them. Good luck! ;-)

In 2017 I did a solo motorcycle trip from my home in Alberta down to LA and back in a big loop. So watching this has been amazing since I wasn't able to capture these roads in this way. I completely understand the joy of meeting strangers and the hope of a gas station. I went during a heatwave so riding through Arizona and the other desert states was insane for this Canadian girl. Great videos, thanks for taking the time to document and share! Love the soundtrack too.

As in Episode 1, great to be along on the ride from your point of view. I really think Triumph needs to buy these vids from you and show them on their site, and at their corporate meetings. What you are doing IS the dream of most riders, and you're doing it on their bike. Sadly much of the ride in this video is charred and smoky landscape now. You are so lucky you did this when you did.

Coast in on fumes to find a closed sign and no card readers on non-lit pumps at night time. I ended up sleeping in the rain, in what I was fairly sure was someone's yard. So suffice it to say...no fire that night. Great video!

In 2000, I made a life changing decision and hopped on a bicycle and rode from Seattle to Washington, DC. There are not enough words to describe the feelings and thoughts one has during a trek like ones we've had. Thank you for such great editing and musical choices.

This little moto film has a wonderful feeling to it. I've been a long-distance solo motorcyclist for 25 years so I can totally relate. When you ride you have a feeling of being totally alive in the moment. And yep, it can be zen-like at times. But a moto trip is just like life, it has its high points and its low points. And it can be damn tough and tiring at times, and this when you have to slow down or you'll burn out. When you finally roll back into your hometown, there's a real feeling of accomplishment and memories made. We all know this is a somewhat risky endeavor, so learn to ride well and spend some bucks on good protective clothing/gear (make sure it's not too hot either!). Also, situational awareness needs to become a natural response as soon you mount a bike. Something that combat vets understand better than me. I know its saved my life on two occasions. I approach motorcycling like I do scuba diving or downhill mountain biking, as in full-on focus. Avoid city traffic as much as possible and you substantially reduce your risks. I never ride in my hometown of Denver, just too chaotic. Long-distance riding is a significant part of my life that makes me grateful to be alive. I can hear the road calling me now. Cheers.

Wow, thank you for sharing your journey with us. At 73, I haven't ridden much since selling my '08 HD Fatboy in 2014. It was set up for touring and motocamping. Prior to that I found an '81 Yamaha 850 Midnight Special in nice condition at a garage sale for $1000 and all that was needed were new tires and a brake job. Nelson Riggs bags including a tank bag similar to yours (magnetic) completed the bike for touring. Your journey reminded me of mine as I toured and camped from Phoenix, to the Grand Canyon, to Moab, to Durango, through New Mexico and back home, some 4000+ miles later. I overland camp in my Jeep but as one of the commenters wrote, "Four wheels move the body. Two wheels move the soul."

Congrats man! I'm from Pakistan and I really liked your passion and courage to travel such a long distance on your own. It really takes the courage of a lion to accomplish such achievement. 👏

In 2015 I sold my bike and moved to WA. I had a quadruple bypass in January and in April I bought a KLR 650 ADV. I want to do the same trip as you next year. Thank you for the inspirational video, you did an amazing job!

Loved it. In 2008 I did Newfoundland to LA and back Recognized sights from Crater Lake to the Redwoods in reverse.. I did the same road but going the other way. Planning on getting back and having more time to enjoy the PCH in 2023.

Just found your channel and subscribed! I love your choices of music, really fits the subject well. I started riding about 40+ years ago and haven't stopped yet! I will be 62 this year here in Aberdeen, Washington and weather permitting will continue to ride my trusty R1200RT👍😀🇺🇸🔥

Hey Jake, great video just got back from a tour in the european alps(germany, austria, switzerland and Italy)- watching your viedeo makes me wanna pack my stuff an hop on the bike. Forget about rain, longing for the next gas station etc. ,enjoy what makes the trip special and learn your lessons in order to have an even better trip next time . We can't travel all the roads but we should try anyways... Keep on riding! Chris from germany
