Oregon Desert on the Trans America Trail Motorcycle Adventure ep. 22

[@surfman1968]

Another great video. Really shows just what you can expect out that way.

Looks beautiful and interesting despite the arid climate!

Loved the scenic long shots. I have read and seen where many of the Oregon farmers have lost their water rights. Shutting down the small farms. Looking forward to the green of western Oregon.

Makes me want to load up..

It's great that the TAT trip is still generating this awesome content as you feel like editing it. Many people want to post the best of the best, or their fabulous lunches and the quaint small towns, and that's fine, but I like these relaxed riding videos that give me a more representative feel for riding the TAT. It's like you're taking us along on the adventure. Richard is contributing to my desire to add a KLX300 to my stable of steel horses.

Look for a KLX video soon - more of an impression than a review, just watching the ease of others riding them.

Bro, you missed the perfect opportunity in your intro to say “Before I was so rudely interrupted!” 🤣🤣🤣

[@MotoGiant]

I could not come up with a decent idea?

[@EvanEdwards]

Great video, as always. How many more do you think you're going to get in this series from this trip?

[@MotoGiant]

For the TAT 5-8 maybe? I have a few more videos on the way back that are interesting, but not much struggling in that :)

[@EvanEdwards]

@@MotoGiant I find myself either loving these videos and watching them in detail, or not wanting to watch them so I can discover the TAT on my own. I'm more of a cruiser guy, poking at small towns and back roads alongside paved America and well maintained country dirt roads. But I'm in transition, having recently returned to riding after my wife unexpectedly passed away. So I don't know what the future holds. Nobody does.

Beautiful country, but I have heard flys are super bad in Oregon, ?

[@MotoGiant]

not a lot of them but they hurt like hell!

[@chonkyb3134]

@@MotoGiant , how do you keep them off of you ?

[@BlueBug-s9l]

How did y'all determine who rode point and when? Did you choose by miles or days or something different?

[@MotoGiant]

Good question, and I have talked about it in previous videos - it mostly worked it's way out, as I have asthma, I must ride really close behind or far away from dust. Since Richard did not mind dust, for the most part, he followed 70-80% of the ride. Sometimes he rode closer than others, but we are both horrible navigators, so who was leading rarely came up.
