RIDING THE TETONS - and a Party at the MOA Rally -

[@johnmendez9592]

Thank you so much, I found myself laughing and enjoying your trip with you😁👍✌❤🙏

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome thanks John.

[@twowheeledgator1364]

So proud of my wife. She may or may not be of a “certain age” (wink wink). She learned to ride a year ago. We have had some great trips in the past year but this past summer was the best. We rode southern Colorado and northern New Mexico for two weeks. We covered about 1900 miles of sandstorms, rain, fog, mud and rock slides, Pikes Peak, hotels and tenting. One of the best vacations we have ever had. I am so proud of her. She rode like a pro and took every challenge with grit, determination and a smile . You guys are great ambassadors for our hobby - for the men and the ladies. Keep up the good work.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

That’s a great story. Thanks. We will do our best. Cheers.

[@chrisknowles]

That takes "Box Lunch" to a whole new level! I'm dying!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Ha. Cheers

[@michaeladams3829]

BEAUTIFUL!! Thank you so much for the video. More entertaining than 98.8% of anything else on tv!!😁😁

[@terrywerm1]

Great video! You two were so lucky to visit Grand Teton NP when you did. Just a few days later the forest fire smoke from California was so bad that you could barely see the Tetons from any of the roads. Keep up the great work, I really enjoy your videos!

[@craiggoodwin9704]

My Wife has promised to take me to the Tetons. She's been there but I have not. I love the serenity of the place you showed us. I'm sure you met lots of people and enjoyed the Rally buy after a few days there I'd be heading back to the Tetons just to recover from the hustle and bustle of the event. Always a pleasure. Ride Safe! Thanks for sharing.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Yes we did get to the Big Horn mtns after Sturgis

[@lynnpearlman4748]

Have been watching for two days now. I have Dystonia which needed my motorcycle days. So I am living vicariously through y’all. You might have lived in Texas but your accent says otherwise.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Yes we were from TX we lived there 12 years. But Chris is from Michigan and I’m from Arizona

[@kacythomas7436]

Thank you for taking me along on your adventures. When I was a girl of 13 or 14 years, I dreamed of doing what you are doing that was 64 years ago.

[@crazycakemomma]

That’s us with you guys in the first picture of people you met! 23:23. Loved meeting you!!

[@bigjoe4020]

I think Richard really likes those long hikes / walks. Chris, you should schedule more 9 mile hikes in the future :)

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

I do thanks

[@grahamcairn8379]

In New Zealand we are in total lockdown and it's so good to see you both traveling around your country...sharing your adventures....love to both and enjoy....thank you.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank You

Coffee and the Tetons. Look at those majestic mountains. I loved that ride.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Bill. Cheers

I'm really happy to get this view of the complete ride. thank you both.🏍🏍🏍

[@arthurtoney7804]

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Superb video! I missed the Great Falls/MOA rally but, thanks to you, I was able to vicariously attend. Ride well, my friends!

[@neallawrence822]

Just wanna take a minute to tell you both how much I enjoy your channel, and content.

[@jimwortham8634]

Thanks so much for posting from South Florida my cousin Bob and I did that trip Tetons Silverton ouray many years ago long time before GPS but sure was beautiful remember forever thank you guys good luck

[@davidevans7350]

Hi Chris and Rich, One of the highlites of the rally was meeting you two. I was struck how you guys are just like the people we see in your videos. Best wishes and ride safely. Dave from St. Louis

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Our pleasure! Thank You David it was great meeting you also. We had a blast.

[@barbapke766]

Beautiful pictures! Pigs in the blankets look good.

[@williamstewart2586]

Great pictures of the Tetons. That guy that deer flat out lucky I hit one in 2000 on a Valkyrie and was in a wheelchair for 6 months.

[@davidnovogratz4844]

Great video! I love it when you guys talk to the folks you meet on the way. Thanks.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

We love meeting everyone. It’s really cool to hear their stories

[@Donfleebie1]

I can almost smell the mountain air as I watch your video. I love that area. It’s been 30 years since I rode my motorcycle around there.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks.

[@MIkeAldea]

In 1990 I made a bucket list trip from New Jersey to see the Tetons as well as attend a rally in Colorado Springs. The Tetons were everything I hoped. I'm not a morning person, but I got up before dawn so I could join all the serious photographers who photograph the Tetons in the golden light hours of the morning. You could actually do that for a week and still not manage to photograph every desirable spot in the golden light. New bucket list item is to revisit the Tetons.

[@erikclausen4780]

Fantastic show I liked the action getting the lunch bag out of the trash can LOL And the great BMW rally's always enjoyed them lots of fun. Great show !! and nice work!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Erik

[@yosam5184]

My goodness had not been that way since 1998. Enjoyed riding along with you guys and your explorations.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

[@johnnysechrist6313]

Beautiful place in the summer. Buy those good deal tires and take them with you.

[@jeffkeni]

A most entertaining video! Outstanding!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Jeff

[@HoustonMtn]

I did that same hike around Jenny Lake and it ain't no joke. Good job Richard!

[@jaco_oosthuizen]

You guys inspire me to do more camping trips.

[@Jerry-pk8gc]

Was watching along enjoying the beautiful mountains. then you said you needed a new front tire at 8500 miles. not sure how your back tire is still so good but 8k is pretty good on a front. I ride a sport tour and am happy to get 6k from it. keep on riding, love watching your vids.

[@JCunningham21]

my late grandfather had a 65 BMW r60. my uncle has it now. runs great

[@underthetornado]

I love your videos. Thankyou so much for sharing. I'm gonna suggest to u what I've been sharing with my other utuber campers. Pack "prid" in your first aid kit. People are getting tick and spider bites and no one is packing drawing salve. It's a lifesaver for bad bites!!! Especially in desert. Much love.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks for the tip!

[@kevinroberts361]

Great Stuff TWBL !! This might be your best episode yet ! I really enjoyed, very beautiful, my gosh, i gotta go. Be safe

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Kevin

[@terrencemclaren3028]

Can’t beat the views of the Tetons. Love that area. The views of the Tetons from the Idaho side are spectacular as well. Safe travels.

[@charlesterrell2507]

I like it Richard squirrel she was a beauty it’s wonderful that Chris can laugh with that I love you guys

[@CrystalClearNM]

very cool timelapse starting at 13m18s with the added audio!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks G

[@dougm5231]

I did the same route as you all for the Tetons, but the first time it was POURING rain (thunderstorms). The next year I went back and did it again and this time it worked out. Yea I've heard people only getting 8-10k out their ADV tires and I'm like that will bankrupt me. Almost forgot. I got my last Sunday from my 6428.2 mile trip out to Idaho. I rode Lolo Pass and it was awesome, 200 miles of curves from Lolo, MT to Lewiston, ID. I'd do it again.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome that’s a great road. Glad you made it back to the Tetons.

[@jhernellmusic]

Just beautiful footage of the Tetons, huh? Those MOAs are certainly much different from the other rallies like Sturgis, Lone Star, Daytona, and the ROT aren't they? I am a Beemer bum, had an HD RK once but love the Beemer a bit more! Lone Star is coming up in Galveston. Hit me up if you need anything - I live in League City! Thank you for sharing - I smiled, laughed, and enjoyed your vlog!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Josh. The MOA rally’s are definitely different than this party fest of Sturgis

[@markhunter954]

🇬🇧great vid Montana is Awesome been there many times👍✌️

[@indianbell5211]

❤ Beautiful! ❤Thank you Chris & Rich for sharing!! Made my day! Miss the Tetons, was there in 2011 with a buddy definitely counter clockwise to get great views. Highly recommend vacation destination to all viewers * pictures & videos don't do quite justice when you are in God Majestic Country!Miss some of the adventure/area you both got to see due to traffic, so I understand "traffic" (parked on a very narrow edge 😖 with my bike once but all worked out). The rally looked awesome (love my Dunlop Elite 4, I ride an Indian Chieftain *18,231 miles on rear👍). Shame it took so long to get your tires, Chris. Kim is sure a blessing to see, as I am female also *54 & been riding 28+ yrs, wishing her yrs of enjoyment and adventure. Can't wait to see your next vlog.👍🏍🏍 Blessings to you both.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome thanks and Yes is a sweetheart.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Glad you’re okay.

[@stevepolk1039]

It’s crazy isn’t it? I still don’t know how I didn’t wipe out. I think it was a combination of things. Fully loaded bike, going fast, hit dead on, no time to swerve or hit brakes. I just remember thinking “lean into it, ride through it”. Glad you made it too.

[@keithqueen3554]

Obviously it is not safe to tell strangers on the internet where you are, where you are going and when you will be there. Also, you have internet and can use observational skills to see what is right in front of you and do your own research.

Thanks. That’s great to hear about those tires. Chris loves those tire BTW.

[@TheFalcro1234]

I loved seeing your experience at your first rally event. I am glad you persevered and got in to get your new tires. that front was definitely looking a bit haggard.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

It was really bad for only 6000 miles.

[@TheFalcro1234]

@@TwoWheelsBigLife yes I would be disappointed if my tires only lasted 6k when considering that you two toured 70 to 80% of the time on slabs. Maybe the front was made a little too soft. I love the look of those Dunlop 50/50 tires. Hmmm, maybe I will put some on my new to me, 1993 GoldWing I am trading my 2005 S50 for this coming Tuesday!!
