Motorcycling to the Olympic Peninsula

[@harleydave01]

It’s like a breath of fresh air seeing normal everyday people such as you riding and enjoying life. I know these are older videos but I hope to see some more up to date in the future.

[@christophepoteaux3932]

So happy to have you back! And we brought back our family tradition to watch the new episode of Chris & Rich with kids on Sunday night. Yay!!

[@johnsikes5404]

Nice to see you're back. You've been traveling together on two wheels for a long time.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

More to come!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Sorry for the delay Just finding out that I can filter members only now. Thanks for being with Us

[@oldtimerlee8820]

What a pleasant surprise to be able to spends some time with you on a Sunday afternoon. I've truly missed following you on your Two Wheel Adventures. Hope this means that you'll be doing more of this in 2024. Happy New Year!

[@andrewewan624]

Good to see you back again Take care ...safe riding

[@marilyn2]

After 42 years in the PNW, I moved south to sunshine. I enjoyed this video so much, seeing familiar places. I drove back up a few months ago and my daughter and I toured the Peninsula (by car) and camped in a few different state parks. What a wonderful time we had! My all-time favorite campground is in Deception Pass State Park on north Whidbey Island where lots of family memories were made. A life of exploration and adventure is a life well-lived. Thanks for taking me along for the ride.

[@lindaswett1278]

Great to see you!!!!! And in my state!

[@woodsontr]

I'm surprised we didn't run into you guys this summer. Me , my wife and the dogs camped and toured that Area this past summer, 2023. We camped in the Dungeness State park for 6 days. Beautiful part of the country.

[@MsLin-u5v]

Welcome back and happy new year!!🎊🎆🎉🎈💕🤭

[@stevecrawley5450]

Welcome back. Nice to see this video after a miserable winter day

[@aceleaf]

So happy to see you on the road again. Thanks

[@KevinRoeber-c6n]

Your videos of your travels with the history background of the area really adds to it.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank You

[@jameslovelace8958]

Oh WOW! Y’all are riding the path that my son and I are planning for this summer. We are leaving Sterling Colorado to Reno as an Iron Butt ride. Two days there in Reno to rest after that 1,000 mile ride. Then over to the Golden Gate north on the 101 to the Columbia River Gorge. Then back east to Sturgis for the 5th time. Maybe two weeks ride and maybe my last long ride. Between age and health maybe it’s time to just go fishing.

[@tmgreenawalt9554]

Yay, so happy to see you both. I love how you explain and give history of the places you visit. Stay safe..enjoy!

[@patriciap9162]

I am so happy to see y'all...I've miss seeing all your wonderful videos!!!

[@kerkleblanc7690]

Yea, you're back!!

[@keithqueen3554]

Great to see more from you two. You encouraged my long distance riding and stopping to smell the roses years ago. 👍

[@MatthewStottVisuals]

Thank you for your work creating and sharing your adventures! My wife and I love watching and we get so much information and inspiration from watching your videos!

[@benbirkigt493]

So happy to see you guys back on the road even if it's just for short trip stay safe and enjoy the ride.

[@jameslovelace8958]

I’m so happy that y’all are back! I have missed y’all greatly. I still think of meeting yall on the Blue Ridge a year or so ago. It was pure joy to find y’all that day.

[@BarryKellysinger]

Welcome back from the UK we've all missed you folks .

[@BootsandJeansRiders]

Hey Rich & Chris. It was nice of them to put up a memorial wall for the riders. Chuckanut Drive...We had the pleasure of riding it on our 4 corner tour. Shhh...Moto Travels told us about it. Loading that bike on the trailer brings back memories lol. Love the wooded campground, very nice.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks you guys. Be sure stop by again

[@jonathonscott7776]

Howdy to the both of you! I trust this series will lead up to your decision to temporarily? end life on the road and return to "sticks and bricks" life. I have thoroughly enjoyed your journey from the very beginning. I am curious, though....which mode of travel was the best....all things considered. You started out with a cargo trailer, then moved to Ruby (tent camper), then a flatbed truck pulling a camper, and finally as minimalistic as possible with a return to tenting. I have just retired and am seriously considering hitting the road full-time as every day is now Saturday. I realize I need more creature comforts than in my younger days and would like to have your rear-view mirror look on the pros and cons of each mode of living day-to-day. Maybe just some highlights comparing each year? I'm old enough to know better, but young enough to learn from other's mistakes. I was truly saddened to see your journey interrupted, but happy to see that you're doing well. Thanks for everything....and Shiny Side Up!!!

[@ttjbiggunner2025]

@jonathonscott7776 That's some great questions and I would be interested in hearing what they have to say about those things myself I hope they see your message and make a video about it

[@manujosiah8088]

I'm a new subscriber and so glad I found your blog. I sold my FLH years ago because I did not feel safe on the roads. You are convincing me to rethink my decision. Your videos of the areas you visit are spectacular. Thanks for sharing.

[@robing4712]

I’ve missed you. What a treat to enjoy your adventure in the dead of winter when the next riding season seems so far away. Thank you so much for putting this together for us!

[@motoweasel6633]

I love that you and Rich are posting videos again, it makes my Sunday night excellent.

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

What a lovely Sunday surprise hope you guy's are having a great new year so far

[@holisecleveland2859]

I just realized why I enjoy following the two of you. You are very much like another couple that I follow in England. Bryan and Caroline known as Bunny King Hogs. They go all over England and Europe and Caroline gives interesting info about the areas that they ride through along with detailed historic bits of info. They are temporarily in South Africa right now.

[@eddcurry501]

Great to see posts from y’all again.

[@darrinrobinson1661]

Love to see you both back

[@LloydMayes]

Glad y’all back ❤

[@kacythomas7436]

Very glad to see the two of you again hope that you had very peaceful and enjoyable holidays. Happy new year.

[@richardvalitalo3670]

What a joy to retrace trips from years ago. I remember picking blackberries along the coast south of there.

[@craigpate4140]

Great to see you guys. I pray all is well and you are both healthy. I miss your videos.

[@tjs201971]

Wow I am excited to see ya on a wonderful new journey!! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@karenallen5208]

Wow! I love these videos so much. It appears Washington has a lot to offer. I am enjoying the beauty.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@HarleysDinersRides]

It's always nice to have someone else lead the ride and show you new places. cheers Dave

[@jimweagant8920]

Thanks for the video 👍👍

[@billstapleton8833]

U 2 r my favorites Travelers, greetings from Emma,Ky...😊

[@lorilake7613]

Your riding thru my backyard! I live near Port Angeles and love the entire area. I m enjoying seeing it through your eyes.

[@klb3400]

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks for watching!

[@danm2265]

Nice to see you guys again . we need to go to the Olympic peninsula.nice bike chris. 😁

[@gsrider569]

I follow quite a few moto vloggers, Love to see the travels and adventure of others and take their experieces and plan my own. TWBL was one of our first channels we subscribed to. Just the flow of your content, laid back feel and the history and anecdotes of the places you guys visit kept my wife and I glued to your channel. When the videos stopped, we were sad but know full well how life goes and things we must do. This morning, I happend to notice your 2 uploaded videos. Made my day!!! So great to see you guys, feels like home. Cheers

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank You

[@cathyn1033]

That was a great video. It is so pretty in the PNW. We are about to have our first winter storm here on Tuesday and then it continues for the next several days with more snow and cold temps. We have been lucky so far this winter but that is about to change here in the Midwest. Thanks for taking us along.😊

[@PaulMerrick-vs7hw]

I miss you guys i'm glad you come up and start making videos again

[@jcrocks5183]

Richard and Chris so glad to see your videos again! Love watching you guys make your way acroos the United States. Stuck in the bad weather here in Chicago just waiting to get back on two wheels. Keep the shinny side up, be safe out there guys.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@debbiejohnson1441]

So glad you guys are back. I've missed watching you. Plus your videos are so informative and interesting. Glad your back. Be waiting for your next one. Be safe! Enjoy life!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank you so much!

[@bandknanacortes1858]

Chuckanut Drive is such a popular ride, lots of 2 wheelers, powered and pedal. Lots to great places to grab lunch in Bellingham. The Deception Pass Bridges are another tourist spot as you discovered and on either side there are places a mile or so short of the bridge that you can get access to the beaches via parks. The Coupeville to Port Townsend Ferry and the road to Forks and around the Olympic Peninsula is another great ride and it’s easy and accessible for a weekend ride. Thanks for the “new” videos, I hope all is going well with your new home and the land you bought a while back. Looking forward to seeing more. Best wishes for 2024.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank You slow moving on the property, but we'll get it together some day

[@captainjim605]

Chuckanut is a great ride! When we were living/working on San Juan Island, we'd put the scoots on the ferry and "go to America", ride Chuckanut, swing by the bookstore, have lunch, do a little grocery shopping (without the island prices), then head back to the ferry. Thanks for posting videos again!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Very cool!

[@jamesp1045]

So glad to see you two out on the open road again. Please keep them coming. Stunning area. Absolutely marvelous motorcycle country. See you again I hope.

[@TerryC56Deluxe]

Nice to see you back. Ride safe

[@joewells7360]

Always love the history lessons thanks

[@julieideus1515]

I’m curious as to what camping equipment y’all are using now? I see the Harley is back in service. I think inquiring minds would like to know and see how you’ve restarted. I personally loved the pop up tent thing but sure understand and agree the changes you made. Great to see you both back on the tube.

[@twowheeledgator1364]

It’s Sunday again. Thanks

[@TheGrandShamrockTour]

Hello TWBL from John and Caroline!! We have missed you and are like everyone else... glad to see you back! We spent so many Sunday nights looking forward to your video. We have enjoyed meeting you out on the road and will watch to see what you two are up to in 2024. Safe travels! J&C 🍀The GST

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks GST love you guys

[@FREE_PUREBLOOD333]

Well hello there strangers!!! Hope you are both doing ok.. I noticed you limping bad on another vid I watched recently when you helped them out trailering their gold wing. Good on you both for helping out . Look forward to seeing more of your vids this year 2024. Love and best wishes from England UK. 🇬🇧🙏👍

[@tomfillmore9710]

[@Pw.papa.7]

Good to see you guys back out on two wheels😎🙏

[@amasdaha9734]

Through the years watching you have been inspirational - helped me decide to commit last year ride to the Arctic Ocean, so I did, and thought of you often! 🤗

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

That’s awesome. Love stories like this

[@rickgregg554]

So happy to see the two of you back.. hope to see more of you guys ! Sure do is the weekly videos ❤. Happy new year 🎆

Thank You

[@gregstrebig2385]

Welcome back! You’ve been missed ❤

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

You're the best!

[@bigjoe4020]

Love that flashback pic of the 2 of you in 1989 on what looks like identical bikes. What bikes were they ?

[@letitrest4662]

It's been at least a year since I've watched any videos from you two. I thought you were set on settling back down into a house ? We have a coincidence we share. I live in the Atlanta area, and last August I took a motorcycle trip to Seattle to visit my son. While there, and while he worked one day, he suggested I ride up to, guess where, Chukanut Drive. The area is so beautiful, and of course the same day I had to ride over to Deception Pass State Park.... Of course I picked the worst time to travel out west from Atlanta. It was over one hundred degrees going through Kansas, as well as Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington. So by the time I got to Everett, Washington where my son lives and it was 91 degrees, it felt comfortable. Coming back I took Route 2 out of Everett going east and stayed on it all the way till I got to Montana.

[@GingerGypsyAdventures1]

I miss this, what a great catch up with you two!😊

[@Mike_129]

So happy you are back!!!!!

[@JMAC360]

You’re in my neck of the woods. Love your videos. If you’re ever in Silverdale, Wa, let me buy you guys lunch. Also, in Forks is a cool little campground called Cycle Camp. The owner is really nice and really caters to motorcyclists.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

We travels there 30+ years ago also. Got lucky no rain both time in the area.

[@Buck1954]

"Keep it between the Mustard and Mayonnaise"; never heard that term before. I like it!

[@Titan500J]

I’ve said it before so I’ll say it again, the best thing you have going for you is each other!

[@craighepburn9332]

I'm happy to see that you two are back and traveling. I'm looking forward to your next video and Meaney more. I see that you are tent camping and not with a trailer, so does that mean that you will only be traveling for a couple of month at a time? cheers from NZ.

[@lubo-vt2dm]

Welcome back. You’ve been missed.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank You

[@jrkat]

Love this. I’ve enjoyed the drive on all my motorcycles and even in my 87 Ford PU thanks😎

[@chestypuller4591]

Nice to see you two back! Thought you had fallen off the side of the earth!

[@ACE-or8bo]

Happy New Year.

[@kathymurphy7217]

Another top video!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Glad you like them!

[@davescrazy-trailer6542]

Been 👀 for your new videos 2024 🎉

[@jdweld44]

Lorena Bobbitt lived on Chuckanut drive. Great road and close to some oyster farm shacks you can eat at!

[@bigjoe4020]

@10:00 Richard says can't find it on the GPS ! I get that a lot and instead of finding an address and typing that in painfully on my Garmin I simply bring up the map and pin it. It will ask you if you want to nav there and boom your done, much quicker. Also happy to see another, rare these days, video from you guys. rsm8

[@boscodog4358]

Welcome Back. Did you guys start out from AR Rich what did you do to Miss Alice?

[@scottdeeslcutusa8117]

It is great to see this

[@larry68hd11]

Enjoyed. Happy new year.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Happy new year!

[@LivingOnCash]

I haven't really spent any time in the PNW since 1978 when I was stationed at Ft Lewis. I'm taking a trip up there this summer and will make sure I bring a bag of nuts with me so I have something to chuck! 😂

[@tomamos5771]

I just enjoy the ride

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

We will. Thanks Sounds like a Grateful Dead song.

[@douglasworkman2788]

Hey guys glad to see you back, a quick question, what is that music that is playing in background, after you guys leave to go up that 7 mils mountain, love that music

[@Buck1954]

When I see warning signs aimed at motorcycles, it usually means the surface is not good for traction. In Texas right now, the roads are being rebuilt all over the place, right in the middle of riding season.

[@texaslonestarrider]

Nice Ride!

[@kathymurphy7217]

Chris what bike do you ride now?

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Chris rides a 2021 Triumph Tiger GT

[@eddcurry501]

Next video, catch us up on what’s going on now?

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

Hi kids 👍🏍️🏍️🎄😁

[@dormanpeterson1139]

Hello I'm Dorman and I'm wondering what kind of trailer do you have it looks really big

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

The trailer is a Bushtec +turbo 2, a 2002 model

[@czxm94]

Hi guys. Ive been subscribed and watching forever… i must have missed something tho. what happened to the truck and camper? now youre back in a house and really no explanation. i feel like the end of the “LOST” or “SOPRANOS”series where they left us kinda like…. “uh what happened?” can you either point me to the video i missed or have a sit down video updating us all, or at least me. lol.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Ha we may have been sorry for that. But we did do a couple of Live videos that explained what was happening. I’m doing my best now to drop a video every 2 weeks and then we will share what happening at our property on Arkansas. Thanks for watching.
