Back in The Rocky Mountains.. I-70 Westbound and Down to Las Vegas Nevada.!!

[@briangraef8187]

I just wanted to say thanks for all the videos. I was a truck driver. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with heart condition and lost my CDL. I feel so grounded at home and miss seeing the country. So thanks for the video's. It's really been appreciated

[@jimsage1043]

I feel for ya bud. Started truckin back in the 70s. Got 35 years in before health reasons kicked me into the office. Thankfully I'm retired and able to drive wherever I want now.

[@toniallen8617]

I lived in Grand Junction, now in Las Vegas. Thanks for taking me alone. Great memories of Colorado’s beauty.

[@heyleba]

Keep em coming I’m really enjoying them , the country side is so super amazing

[@74bshs]

Mountain Man Mike, I so enjoy your videos! You take me to places to which I have never been (and I wish I were), and others that I have been to, and love to revisit via your truck-cam. I really like your voice, your attitude, and your commentary, it's all really good. This is one of those videos where I think you go through Glenwood Canyon, CO on I-70, what a magnificent stretch of the Interstate system! God Bless America, thank you for what you do for a living, but also thank you for these posts to share your view from the windshield with us. Peace! :) John in Montrose, PA

[@jackball4201]

Just love the clear air and bright sunshine and blue skies of Western Colorado. Winter or summer. Thanks for another relaxing ride. Here fishy, fishy. Oh well, better luck next time. Dang gnats!! Thanks for the ride.

[@jimbateman225]

Thanks Mike. Sharing this beautiful country with us while all of the crazies tear up their own lives is a welcome change for most of us. Keep on Truckin' as they say. Stay Safe. PEACE!

[@picosmama]

I enjoy riding along with you. I get to see sites i would not otherwise get to see. Beautiful country. Thank you for uploading your travels!!

[@pinkywilliams8063]

Colorado looking good in the Springtime...Thanks for sharing your breaktime with us....I love to fish....The whole time stationed in So. Cal I never caught one fish... They sent me to Austin Tx next and the first time we went fishing , we got a stringer full.....It's a great pass time...My first trip fishing was with my grandparents, I was 5 or 6....Love it...

[@brianfochler3677]

I am very much thankful to be riding Shotgun with you. Although we have some beautiful country north of the border in Beautiful British Columbia Canada, It is a pleasure to see some of the same only different down in your neck of the woods. The short time (7 years) I drove, hauling crude oil in Saskatchewan was a pleasure and I only whish I had started earlier in my life. I am now 69 and happily retired . I will have to drive those mountains and see them for my self. I the mean time I am happy to let you do the driving while I ride shotgun. May God ride with you always and keep you safe. CHEERS!!!!

[@maxplanck9055]

The scenery is spectacular in the Rockies. Easily worth a video, pleased to have seen it.👍♥️🇬🇧.

[@evie00sleep68]

ShotGun with Mountain man Mike: The duck just sitting while you fish. That was extreme beauty, a picture in the water called reflections. ❄🏞🏔. Cheers🥂. Thanks for the post

[@KatieReadsKoziesAndMore]

[@terrimichaels3018]

An excellent Sunday to everyone riding shotgun on a beautiful drive such as this ❤

[@DiReis]

had just watched a video from oct 2019 where you were going on that same route but it was night time and snowy.. what a difference watching it now by day time and sunny.. :)

[@jaybee608]

Good morning! With all that's going on in many states, I'd rather be riding with you this morning. Have a wonderful Day!

[@michaelshields5921]

Thank you for sharing and be safe out there.

[@weremodel]

Happy Fire Sunday to you, Mr. Pierce. Be safe and thanks .

[@dr.johnandyvonnewagner5067]

Aw bummer! I watched you going through the Rockies and thought you would go through Grand Junction, but you shut off your camera! Oh well... The scenery through the Rockies was awesome! I love that part of the country!!!

[@rosamondtillman6846]

Good mornin... Good mornin...... Music to the ears!! God Bless.

[@arunphillips6977]

This is fantastic, as are all your vids. Keep them coming dude!

[@madbunny101]

There's parking in Mesquite across from the casino next to the McDonalds, but I don't remember if it was free or not.

[@brendahaltom6612]

Great video MMM!!😅No need to edit dude!😰All of us who can't see this area of the world love the scenery you show!! Your commentary is better than a lot of truckers!! You and Trucker Josh are the best in my opinion!💖As far as running chat goes anyhow!😜

[@happyhighway106]

Good morning, Mt. Mike. Don't you love Michigan, "Pure Michigan". Back in 1970, when I worked for the Ann Arbor Railroad Ferries. Frankfurt to Kewanee (wis.) run (60 miles). We loaded the ships with trucks at night for $35 one way. Very popular with Semi Truck Drivers---saved hundreds of miles driving around Lake Michigan.

[@johnarmstead1094]

That highway looking fabulous! 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

[@virginiaswafford7078]

Glad your not going to L.A. not a safe place to be now.love the ride along, beautiful country. Stay safe out there.until next time keep that truck rolling. Peace! !.

[@charleshanna3123]

Thanks Mike For Amazing Video As Always Good Luck Happy Trucking

[@athollmcnicoll256]

Cheers Mike certainly better than trying to get into a church that is closed due to this pandemic and the scenery is far better, especially when snow is visible.

[@LKemp-lr1ky]

Rookie? My 1st drive was a 1929 NASH! Al, itinerant farm worker, guitarist, left his wheels with us. Mom sent me to the store one-to-many times. I wired it (was 11) and she didn't do it again. 84 now, seems like yesterday.

[@anthonyanderson1954]

your videos make me want to do a road trip. absolutely beautiful .great scenes great camera! thanks

[@jimsage1043]

I pulled a tanker thru here several times when it was Rt 6. One time I forgot I had a flammable load and had to go over the Eisenhower Tunnel. Fun😐

[@paolozanconato3665]

Very beauty full video

[@buzzybee9997]

Beautiful drive thank you so much awesome views and scenery from your camera too stay safe Jim from new Zealand

[@robertemmons2260]

Thanks for the ride! It's been a few years since I've been up and over I-70. I miss the drive, but I dont.

[@PanamaRose]

Beautiful video, thanks for taking us along! Be safe!! Peace!

[@qwillaqwincy]

I noticed all those dead trees along the road, too. Mag C does seem to be the most likely cause. It will be interesting to find out if that is what killed them. They look too far off the road for any snow removal equipment to have damaged the trunks. Keep us posted if you hear more about it, please.

[@rabaisouhail7921]

So beautiful nature...

[@ojjenkins7110]

Thanks for the tunnel mike, Happy June.

[@NapierNimbus]

Lovely drive and scenery. Beautiful reflections in the water. Should get a small bottle of eye-wash and keep it in the cab. In UK the small Optrex bottles are supplied with an eyebath.

[@tazmod7272]

Howdy Mountain Man Trucker Mike. Looks like beautiful day. Great place to rid a motorcycle.

[@freeamericausa1]

Here again Oct 9, 2020 Mike. Another great ride. PEACE!

[@johnbanks26]

We like the sound of your truck horn honking inside tunnels.

[@sylviareynolds8463]

Beautiful pictures

[@marybelenitchv.118]

I DON'T NEED NAT GEO, OR MAGAZINE JUST WATCH YOUR VIDEOS..OMG THANKS VERY NICEEEEEE 👏😃

[@hudson8865]

I worked for c.d.o.t 97 to 04. As a field mechanic. I heard stories that Tom norten, director of cdot actually drank some magcloride at a press conference to show how safe it was. Then had to go to the hospital.

[@cruddybanz410]

Love that view 💯

[@aday1637]

It was those 2 Texas egg sandwiches you had for breakfast yesterday that set your weight off. Good to see my old stomping grounds on today's video. From where I live in yesterday's to where I used to live in today's.

[@derekhenshaweasyputter334]

Small sailboat trailers tend to suffer from overheated bearings because not everyone has Bearing Buddy grease caps to keep adequate grease in the bearings and dunking the trailer often happens with warm hubs into cold water that gets sucked through the seals when everything contracts as the metal quickly cools. If not caught soon enough it can cause bearing failure and sometimes fire.

[@terrygrady7683]

About time I saw a motorcycle! Nice trip.

[@tpphotogifts]

Be safe!! Just found your blog. I wanted to roadtrip with someone without leaving my house! Glad KZbin and your channel provided amusement and beautiful sights. Please talk about your trucking life or other interests. Your video is stale in some places and more exciting in others. Perhaps some trivia or fun facts about a city. I xoxo Colorado!! I'll stay in touch!

[@1SAM007]

Tara Phillips nothing stale in Mikes vids’💪🏼🤙🏻

[@karenecurran7895]

It was so good to be back in those mountains . TY MMM. Appreciate all you do during this crazy time of covid . God Bless You

[@SuperRobertwillis]

Beautiful places you go to I enjoy well jell 😂😂💕

[@susansarver4554]

Beautiful West.

[@morsalinmapandi3360]

Very relaxing video.

[@edwardmounsey9208]

Hello Mike: Good to be back in shotgun position. IH70 seemed to have held up fairly well during the winter? Saw some areas that were patched. Cold water like you were in the trout will be a little deeper, might try a wooly worm or some other bottom lure. We never saw you with your line wet. Hard to catch anything unless you have the line in the water. Thanks for the ride, be safe. Edward

[@debcarnes100]

Beautiful blue sky

[@joannford5860]

Thanks for the ride.

[@steveevans9382]

What a great ride.Thanku.

[@sandrabonanno5263]

Beautiful

[@oat138]

Uhaul only charges by the mile if you do a local rental, where you take the truck back to the same place you rented it from. On long haul, they give you a certain set of miles.

[@mikeservais888]

Thanks MMM good video be safe peace!!!

[@teresaryan2019]

Love your channel and enjoy watching, always happy to see you have posted a new one. But something disturbed me so much, news channels are saying the trucker going into the crowd on I35 in Minneapolis was trying to kill people. He honked his horn, and he stopped. If he wanted to hurt people, he could've killed hundreds. I think, he did a stupid thing, but I think he was frustrated with all the work all truckers have done to keep this country open and running, and have a major highway shut down. The independents, I understand, have been hurt the most with low rates and little appreciation for their hard work and risk to them and their families by being out during CoVid. They are letting one police officer and looters and rioters destroy our country!! In San Antonio and some other communities, people are taking back the right to protect themselves and their businesses, their communities and historical landmarks. I stand with the peaceful protestors, not with the destroyers!!

[@stevewintermute195]

Thanks for the scenic drive

[@greggslife3569]

Thanks for the ride mountain mike

[@DLSWV]

[@kelly-jolewis3902]

I wish you could give me a shout out when your headed to Aurora Co. My youngest son moved there 3 years ago. I would like to see what it looks like cause I want to go visit him. I live in the desert of calif.

[@heyleba]

I’m thinking you are very familiar with the roads and have been doing it for a while

[@Iqbal_sibia]

I wanted to go on a road trip so badly since june but feel so suffocated being stuck behind closed borders ☹

[@OldDunollieman]

It's as old as the hills too.

[@rickpowell4048]

When i last drove a Scania , splitter boxes where fairly new. Are they much the same today, obsolete, or far more refined?.

[@germanshepherd2579]

Funny you mentioned Mcdonalds.. When I lived there was the rumor it was the most expensive in the US..

[@jerilynwomack2012]

I have a question we’re you walking around with that fishing pole. I thought you were in a chair from accident.Sorry if that was personal.

[@mianusama611]

Very nice driving and scenic road but include front part of your truck engine in your videos

[@majorpayne4098]

Mike you ever stop in Rifle for breakfast?

[@cornelius43]

Question for Riding Shotgun or to somebody who knows: Why do I never see tanker trucks loaded with DME. (Demithylether) on the American highways?

[@evie00sleep68]

Oh my look at those White Caps. ❄🏔🏞. Florida chick. 👱‍♀️🎧🎼🎶🥂.

Thanks Mike...another great drive thru the Rockies..enjoyed all the views & comments...Take care...Peace!!..

[@slofiz5336]

Mike, how about selling some riding shotgun items. I personally would buy a coffee mug. red white blue mug with bald eagle at the bottom of the cup. Just a suggestion on how it would look.

[@PanamaRose]

We've made that suggestions to him a few months back and he sounded like it was a good idea. But I think with this virus thing going on and him working so much, it might have been overlooked for now. But yea, I'd love a mug!!

[@jimscott2998]

Minturn Country Club steak house in Minturn. One of the best on the west side of the hills of Colorado 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
