Scooter Tramp Scotty and Cimino's Cycles meet again!

[@darkhelmetsplane]

"Material stuff doesn't last..." Scotty is a spiritual freedom seeker which is extremely rare in today's society. Most people are searching for the kind of freedom Scotty has. He does his own thing in his own time... nothing else matters. Scotty has found something priceless in life that most people miss. Great interview.

[@ciminoscycles]

Thank you sir it’s very much appreciated.

[@SSV-i-c-e]

Earlier in the year i lost most of my life’s possessions in a flood .the day before I had watched the video of Scotty’s life and i thought man this guys got it right watching it really gave me comfort in the time since and i really see the positives in not having all the stuff anymore that equals more freedom .so thanks and hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿

[@ciminoscycles]

Sorry for the loss of your stuff, but I’m happy you found solace in the fact you are more free best wishes to you my Kiwi brother!

[@playbluesman1]

Scotty is a legend and everyone can learn a bunch listening to him talk about a variety of subjects.

[@woodly1069]

Wow man Scotty is just more and more legend as time goes forward! What a cool cat!

[@emeryhvac1023]

I really enjoyed this video. I hope to one day travel with Scotty and Joe as well. There's a wealth of knowledge there.

[@bigmurr725]

Great video John ! Scotty has some valuable wisdom .

[@LonesomeNomad137]

Scotty always gives me great advice. Mentor, Teacher, trend setter. At least for me. Well done guys.

[@bigbossman3806]

That was priceless, thanks for the video. Ride safe boy's.

[@JoneszsRides]

Really cool video, I love hearing Scotty’s stories. I’m with him on the freedom that we are losing here in the USA. I hope some day to meet him and just pick his brain, he is very knowledgeable on how he lives and what he does has always been very interesting to me. 👍🏻🇺🇸

[@bryanmitchell5790]

Out of a lack of better ways to explain it, I like how you said, they have the freedom that we were supposed to have, I don’t like that we have less freedom, but I do appreciate they have more freedom than we do, and we are supposed to be the free country, travel well, Scotty Godspeed

I did the blue ridge parkway in a hire car...im from the UK...it was a trip ill never forget...😊👍

Thank you!

[@bryanmitchell5790]

Scotty, you are a wealth of knowledge, and you have a way of thinking out of the box, you just look at things and think about them differently than most people do, we’ve talked a couple times over the phone, which I enjoyed immensely, as always, I wish you the very best, I was almost gonna hit you up once to come to Mexico with you, but then you hooked up with that chick in the truck, I didn’t want to be the third wheel, that was when you were visiting your father down in Southern California, and I was in Northern California, and I figured it would be a good opportunity, but then you met her, so I never did ask you if I could come, as always, I wish you well as you travel Godspeed

[@M1dnightblazer]

The greatest feeling I got from Scotty is to know I'm not alone in wanting to be free. Wanting to escape this slavery society has created for us. Scotty let me see that I have options!

[@jacksonpauljackson2557]

Lovin the channel scooty😂

[@danielcarroccia1042]

Cheers to the legend Big Scotty. Big ups kid

[@everettcalhoun8197]

My buddy and I in the 70's were in the four corners area early one morning, fog hadn't lifted and literally ran into a herd of cattle in the roadway. Saw his brake lights and weaved through the cattle.

[@ciminoscycles]

I was due west of 4 corners when the horse thing happened. Clear day and all the sudden they were everywhere

[@geoffrey5493]

Really great vid,, new subscriber here. 74,, still riding. Love to catch Scotty in Asheville if possible, met him once there. I know where he'll be. just waiting on his return message. I think living with nature, outside ie. connects us with spirit of the universe, just saying.

[@ciminoscycles]

I think you’re right

[@taffdavies35]

British military here, I watch scotty.

[@ciminoscycles]

Right on!

[@paulmszyco970]

Scotty has influenced my life in ways I would've never imagined. I don't live a traveller's life, but I have eliminated my mortgage, I live way more comfortably with less, way less stress, much more enjoyable lifestyle.

[@ciminoscycles]

Amen brother!

[@southside1975]

I'm doing the same thing just not living off my bike wish I could.

[@jakejames1977]

I stumbled across your channel John. I met you last year in stugis, we rode from camp with scotty to the church for breakfast . You were telling me about your time in the military and about sinking a tank in the river at breakfast. If your heading to stugis and coming up through illinois I would ride with you out there . Not sure the roads your taking. I'm leaving August 1st from northern Illinois.

[@ciminoscycles]

I should be in Council Bluffs Iowa by August 1st

[@ciminoscycles]

Dude I actually do remember that trip. I actually filmed that day. Remember Scotty doing the trick riding in the parking lot of the church!

[@jakejames1977]

@@ciminoscycles I will be in Sioux falls S.D. sometime in the evening on the 1st. Just north of you . I would recommend taking hwy 44 across S.D. I'm gonna try and stay off the interstate ,take all back roads out there. I might leave the 29th if I can get my crap together and weather's good.

[@ciminoscycles]

@@jakejames1977 I’m on a bit of a tighter timeline on this one and I travel mostly at night. We’ll see what I do.

[@IMMYSYAYO]

Hello good evening I am listening to you and Scotty’s travels . You just spoke of wild horses. Trying not to let them run you over. I had a brother that hit a horse broadside. The horse died !! My brother did not. I just wanted to thank you for remembering my brother!! I know it was not your intention but I remember a great man!! So thank you again

[@ciminoscycles]

Im glad the video impacted you in such a way. Thank you for watching the entire thing!

[@IMMYSYAYO]

I really like your interest in a lifestyle that is slowly fading away. To a young man take a interest in a lifestyle and it is a lifestyle do not let anyone tell you different. What I just saw of you. If you take that on as your life style you will lead by example. That is a quote from another brother that was a great man. Thank you for your content!! Thank you for your response

[@tommylitchfield3450]

New subscriber here. I just stopped the video to comment about Scottie 's comment about him not really getting what people look to get from him in regards to his lifestyle. I think I get what he's missing... Those people are seeking the peace that Scottie has acquired through trial and error that he explained very well when he was talking about a person's spirit. Too many people are too cynical about spiritual things to truly accept that concept. To me, those people treat serenity just like they have been taught to treat everything else, as something that they can actively acquire, if only they can find the right guru, or the right path, or the right this or that. Peace comes from within and knowing that there is something bigger than you and your little existence. Hanging around somebody won't give you that, no matter how together they have their own shit. It doesn't rub off on you. That's how I see it, anyway.

[@tonyrhoton6613]

Very true seems everyone trying get a better toy than there friend and dont care how they owe so long as they can get credit trapping them 2 work 4 the man.

[@ciminoscycles]

Yeah man I’ve always been content with the junk I had even before meeting all these people who began to change my perspective on life

[@jimw7916]

what you said about the Mexican culture is spot-on. Im now living in The Philippines and as you may know, their culture was born by mixing Malay culture with the Mexican culture, and a splash of Polynesian (The philippines was governed from Acapulco for about 350 years) Ive always called it "Mexico in Asia" The Philippines' first Governor was a Mexican and the main language is 27% Spanish.

[@ciminoscycles]

That’s pretty cool!

[@bobhenry4351]

Before you go to Sturgis. I’m. 1 hour & 15 minutes from Asheville. I would love to just sit and BS .I have watched just about every one of your videos. Too old for your life. Just keep up the great work

[@markbohn6534]

I want to let you all know something about Mexico... Scotty has been lucky... I did heavy haul trucking for many years... I quit loading my own trucks in Mexico many years ago,,, I let them take my trailer and load them and bring it back... I have had lots of bad things happen in Mexico... 6 months ago my friend Jimmy aka pitbull crossed at San Luis in the evening.. I hate that crossing its just creepy.. He should have never been by himself... He's been missing for 6 months now... So he's gone.. He didn't have his motorcycle or any fancy car... But I'm sure his is dead... It's dangerous there people... You don't let your guard down... I've crossed over by Yuma for over 15 years now... You better be smart hanging out in any broader towns... Scotty has just been lucky... Or they thought he was just a poor boy... But he has been lucky..

[@ciminoscycles]

After having lived in El Paso for years before moving back to Georgia I can confirm that it isn’t as easy as some act like it is. Juarez is dangerous as hell. Scotty was always real smart in the idea he’d push way down past the border on the first day, but even he’s been robbed several times. If the risk is worth the reward take the adventure but always understand there are risks

[@markbohn6534]

@@ciminoscycles I've crossed at all the border crossings.. Juarez I only crossed once during the daylight.. Won't being doing that again either.. At Brownsville I use to pickup acid for the gold mines in Nevada... I can't tell you how many times i had to pay the police off there... If you don't you are not coming back... Mexico like China we should not be doing any business with... No one should be crossing into the U.S that we don't know who they are... I've even seen them run guns into Mexico from the U.S side.. Right past there Police there.. They don't try to hard to catch them either.. They have never found my friends Jimmy's car yet.. So Unless someone comes forward they are not going to find him... And about those crossing the border into the U.S..? I've had 7 friends and neighbors kill by these people in my lifetime.. and many more have been badly hurt by them... These Government Actors we have are a total joke.. I have no respect anymore for this sham of a Government.. They care nothing about ANY Americans and the People better wake up... Most in Government have no idea at all,,, of what law is or isn not... Most what you think is law is just all SMU.. I know because I do know the real law.. What it is and what its not... People just be careful going south it's really never been safe..

Same freedom Scotty finds in Mexico is same as where Im at in Vietnam. The USA has lost a lot of freedom. Im sad about that.

Would scotty ever add a small utility trailer behind his bike ?

[@duckman2667]

I really enjoy your channel. I’ve been following since very close to the beginning. I found you through Joe and Scotty. Someday I hope to be able to travel like y’all do.

[@ciminoscycles]

@@duckman2667 i want to preface this because this is a widespread misconception with my channel. I do work, and live in a house, but i work a weird schedule and have a ton of time off. Scotty, Joe, Aaron, chip and the other drifters are great friends I have met in my travels. All credit goes to them, but I do get to lay down some miles. And I hope that this channel helps people in some way.

[@duckman2667]

Oh know, I’m not wanting to make a life of the open road. I actually am wanting to do it like you. Just have the courage to ride for all those miles, see all of the areas I’ve never seen. My children are grown, so for me it’s about the courage and confidence to ride one of my Harleys on an extended ride. I ride around 1000 miles a month on my 3 Harleys and should have the confidence. That’s what I hope to gain from channels like y’all put together.

[@ciminoscycles]

@@duckman2667 my dad taught me long ago that if you’re willing to do something then also be willing to fail. So what if you don’t make it to everything, make it to what ya can. Now I rode that idea to the extreme sometimes, but I reaped a big sense of fulfillment from it.

How often do you have to change your drive belt and do you do it in a shop or on the road? Thanks Scottie!

Scotty needs to partner up with a professional biographer to piece together a book. Chronicles of a truly free Motorcycle vagabond. It could sell big time. I read the book Ghost Rider by Neil Peart and it was fascinating.
