[@Ridingdakotas701]

Every bike trip i go on i have big plans to Camp and always end up at a Hilton. I admire your sense of adventure

[@ridetofood]

I mean the Hilton sounds warm and like a solid option 😂🙌 thanks for watching!!

[@GrislyEvan3]

Colorado kid here, counting the days till i can go on mountain rides again!

[@MotoBaumVirginia]

Completely living the dream right there man that looks beautiful.

[@Eds_PanAm]

yeah, those views were great, but damn those tots looked amazing LOL. you still some of the best drone shots!

[@ridetofood]

haha thank you!

[@jlw4048]

I hope that you and Amanda do another riding adventure together again. You ladies make awesome inspiring videos!! Love CO my favorite place to ride my bike.

[@ridetofood]

We definitely want to!!

[@YTisDumb]

Thank you for packing out your trash! I'm getting tired of cleaning up trashed campsites in my beautiful CO. Great vid!

[@ridetofood]

Always gotta clean up after yourself! Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@janmerchan5809]

Can’t wait to go moto camping again, thank you.

[@ridetofood]

Same! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nomoreblahblah]

A Well put together video with excellent scenery, Editing must have been cumbersome, but well worth it on our side of the internet. 🤓 I almost can't wait for the weather to warm. Enough with the snow and cold. I need to ride "🎶🎶on the road again" Outwest is on the ride and camp plan for this year. So For me, this was a very interesting video and I enjoyed seeing all the interesting places. That restaurant seems like a "must-do". Excellent cool😎

[@JustRide1568]

Been going to Colorado all my life and only just recently traveled from Georgetown over the pass and to Grant. We were on our big Harley's and couldn't adventure out. Man what a beautiful ride it is. I do have a 2017 Yamaha Super Tenere ES (which also has been to Colorado) and so very ready to get the Adventure bike there!! And that looks like a great time of year to be there with the Aspen colors. As always, great video and safe travels.

[@RidingInSearchofEnlightenment]

I love your videos. They have very specific vibe and positivity about them, and they feel very authentic. Keep creating magic.

[@ridetofood]

Thank you :)

[@Viewson2s]

Very smooth videos

[@brucegerken1063]

Great video thank you very well done. Lunch looked great thanks for taking us along.

[@hiltonray4461]

That brewery looks great ! I believe we're going through there in August on our way to ride the million dollar hwy, i'll definitely add it to the list !

[@timjohnson5163]

Another great piece! That shot from camp, at night, with the underlit bike and the massive starry sky was money. That food looked enticing as well.

[@Viewson2s]

That was a great view

[@rehsa-zc6zq]

You do such incredible videos. I feel like I'm watching the travel channel or something. A trip like this is a dream, thanks for always sharing. Beautiful scenery.

[@ridetofood]

Thank you!

[@PaddyC77]

Fricken amazing stuff. Required watching for anyone wanting to get in to motorcycle camping and just an awesome overview of the area. Thanks!

[@Viewson2s]

Agreed

[@jannerfox9292]

Thank you for such a beautiful video, love bikes and camping myself, only sheep, foxes, rats and citizens to worry about in Ireland. Love your channel.

[@Viewson2s]

🤔rats?

[@pamartin]

That night sky was just "WOW"!

[@karlbishop7481]

When I lived near Denver Guanella Pass was one of my favorite rides on my R75/5. I usually rode from Denver to Georgetown on the pavement and dirt to Georgetown, had something to eat and rode home on I70. I never camped, just a day ride. I live in Cali now so I miss Colo riding but we have great riding here too.

[@ericpolach8507]

Gorgeous sceneries

[@Balvanie09]

My goodness that night shot of your camp was amazing! I paused the video for about 10 min just looking at it!

[@jonathanhall9393]

Nice video. Been there many times, the either way is always great.

[@waynesiminski8268]

I think I have pretty much been watching your videos from day one, and the level your work is at now is excellent to say the least. Your video and commentary is as good as any on KZbin. Thanks Staci for keeping us entertained and educated. 👍🏻😁

[@ridetofood]

Thank you Wayne!!!!

[@BoringFisherman]

Great! Now i have to visit Colorado again. Thanks for this.

[@silveriojohan]

Adventure bike is back, scramble eggs looks yummy while camping, going to try it next time, thank youuu❤❤❤

Yas!!! I’ll always be sprinkling some ADV content in here and there for the rest of forever 🤘

Your content, editing, filming skills and music is absolutely second to none. I'm very impressed... Hm, one more thing... You are also a stunning woman biker. Big thanks Staci!!!

Thank you 😁

[@cthom5uy]

My husband and I just discovered your channel and we love it! We used to live in Denver and rode quite a bit out there, but we never combined it with camping (mostly bc we bring our dog). You make it look so amazing, I think we’re gonna have to try here on the East coast 😁

[@ridetofood]

love it!!

[@Robotfood605]

I love love love this channel so much! Great video as always!

[@chorseundgrd]

I am a pavement prince but I love your videos. The places you go are so beautiful and your vlog style makes me feel like I'm right there camping with you. I don't know if I have the courage to moto-camp but you definitely give me the inspiration to maybe try it one day! I look forward to each one of your videos, they're always epic. That food in the miner town looked amazing as well!

[@ridetofood]

You should have more followers!! I hope you get more traction soon, your videos rock and inspire just not myself but I’m sure many others to get out there and enjoy the ride.. cheers from your pal in Houston.

[@ridetofood]

Thank you! If you ever feel inclined to share a video on your facebook feed or elsewhere, I'd appreciate ya! :)

[@kstuber564]

Another fine video. I was surprised to see your new soft tail bike is not an adventure bike. I thought you had your eye on a Super Ténére.

[@ridetofood]

I still plan to get an ADV! I talked about that decision a bit in my Daughters of the Road podcast. You can find it on their KZbin channel 😊

[@Jaake0324]

I always take a bottle of Benadryl with me. I take 3 pills around 9pm. That way it doesn’t matter if I can’t get quite that comfortable in my tent. I eventually black out and wake up around 5am. A hot cup of coffee in the morning to shake off the Benadryl fog and I’m good to go.

Made the mistake of riding Guanella pass on the peak peeping weekend this year. Crazy bumper to bumper traffic virtually all the way with the parking areas full.

[@ridetofood]

Haha yeah, biiiiiig mistake!

[@back_yard_bill]

Great camp out with the Pan America. Yet another destination to be added to my bucket list of rides. Are the tires on your PA, 60/40? They don't look like the 80/20 Scorchers that normally come with the bike. Another month to go & I'll be back on road.

[@ridetofood]

I think they're the Michelin Anakee Wilds! I never owned this bike so HD was responsible for the tire install. But I think those are the recommended off-road tires for the PanAm "by the book."

[@back_yard_bill]

I zoomed in closer and YES they're the 50/50 Anakee Wilds. Thanks.

How do you avoid the scorpions, and rattlers camping?

[@ridetofood]

Is this a serious question? 🤣

[@DanielDunn]

Great vid. Is Guanella paved the entire way?

[@ridetofood]

Yep!

[@donniemullins2719]

Crazy question, so why don’t you leave egg shells and coffee grounds since biodegradable? In military we would always hump out our trash except perishable stuff we buried?

[@ridetofood]

because it attracts wildlife and can create problematic animals that feed off human food. if bears get used to eating people's food and start to become "problem bears" that aren't scared of humans in order to get food scraps, most states will euthanize them.

[@donniemullins2719]

@@ridetofood thank you for the reply, thinking it through a little scraps here and there add up to a huge problem. Thank you again for quick response, I asked you a year or two ago about how many miles you have rode and you were nice enough to respond. Glad to see you’re still the same! Love the channel

liking your videos and the fact that you give loads of info and always ride safe with proper gear and a genuine concern for leaving sites better than you found them. You should check out knuckleheadadventures. Our friend Patch and his dog ride a pan american, (he traded in his SC) they go all over the place. I am too old to take on these kind of adventures now but would have in my younger single days lol.
