Unsupported Motorcycle Adventure Australia | 4500KM IN 8 DAYS

[@MidCoastAdventures]

My DRZ was watching this too, and said, "When are we going long-range exploring like that". One day, mate, one day... Terrific trip. Massive trip. And great inspiration for anyone with a sense of adventure 😎👍

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@MidCoastAdventures the DRZs love it as you already know. Your bike looks good to go I reckon.

[@braaaaaaaaaaap]

That guy is not wishing he's on a DRZ instead of his T7 :) You should do a video where you ride one (maybe unladen) and give your impressions. It's a beast of a bike. You seem to be doubting it because it's a bigger bike although it has 20 more HP and a lot more torque. The snake looks to be an Eastern Brown Snake. Deadly. Keep uploading! I hope to see your channel keep growing. Maybe reach out to other KZbinrs to assist helping your content be promoted by the algorithm. I like and watch every one and share it to my riding buddies.

[@chrisoliver8423]

Amazing video sir ! Hats off to you for putting in so many Kms on the Drz, and with a positive attitude the whole time ! I'm planning a 1800km round trip on my Drz400s with approx 1600kms offroad, this gives me Soooooooo much more confidence in my Drz !!! Thank you so much for this. I'm not even worried about my bike anymore 😅. Great stuff sir

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@chrisoliver8423 yeah they are a great bike. Just always keep an eye on your oil as they can chew a little at higher speeds. Nothing crazy but something to watch.

[@chrisoliver8423]

@The_Apprentice_Adventurer Much appreciated ! Looking forward to packing up and heading out. 👊🏼

[@daviousmaximus6446]

Nice work. Thanks for giving us a glimpse.

[@theobviouschicken]

Everytime you upload a video like this. I think I could do that. Then my back /knee /shoulder pipes up and says " that bloke is about 25 years younger than you and about 25 kg lighter and definitely 125% fitter go back to slumping on your harley on the tar ! ". So thanks for the videos inspiring stuff.

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@theobviouschicken hahaha I feel you mate as I say the same about the 20 year olds falling off all day with no injuries. It is hard work but so enjoyable that it takes away from the aches and pains.

[@lamos8691]

Over 900km in one day! This is epic. Gives me so much confidence to get out on the DRZ and rack up the kay's. Thanks so much for the upload

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@lamos8691 thanks mate. Just remember to check the oil after each long day as they can use oil after 100km speeds all day. I always carry a little bottle for the 5000km type trips.

[@nixxinn]

thank you so much wife of the apprentice ! :) you helped make my life better, from the other side of the world, I ride in black sand deserts and between glaciers on a DRZ aswell and these videos are very good motivation for my own adventures, thank you❤❤

Great work there young man! You're really coming on leaps and bounds. Great intro, you got me hook, line and sinker! 🤙

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@ozzybigbird thanks for the feedback mate. 👍legend.

[@MightyMooseMovies]

Enjoyed seein̈g that country again. My buddy (Stu, on Honda 300 Rallys) and I a did a similar trip in May this year. Went from Silverton through those gates but then went across to Tibooburra then to Camerons. Then went to Merty Merty and north on the old Strezlecki track to Inaminka, Birdsvile back to Arkaroola then straight south through Yunta to Morgan and home. Dosen't look like Riecks rd has improved since we were there. Thanks for showing me a couple of other tracks I will have to explore next time I'm up that way.

[@bobdrakeford5731]

Great watch as usual Lance. Congrats on the PB! Definitely in the Iron Butt Club! Hoping the knee is OK. Thanks for sharing your Motorcycle Adventures. 👏👏👏

[@ShonkyProductions]

Great video Lance. I'm currently in the planning stage for a similar ride in May next year. Can't wait to get back out there.

[@twouptravels2022]

Loved the video! You’ve given us some good info on a future trip too! I got a smile from the trip being “unsupported” when the first credits say “supported by” motorcycle tyre warehouse and exploroz 😀

I must get to the Flinders at some stage. You've inspired me to just go do it! Cheers.

@@MikMech awesome to hear. Wait till the next video. It’s all about the Flinders.

[@RealHooksy]

Epic adventure Lance, thanks for sharing it. I did that Eastern rd last year from Burra SA to Broken hill. Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to getting further east next time. I’m awaiting the flinders special with anticipation 😎🍻

[@michal7817]

Another awesome adventure! Lance, you're THE Legend!

Hi guys, just come across your video absolutely love it so far. My biggest ride on a bike is from Yamba to Canberra but I didn’t quite get there because of the clouds and absolutely pouring down rain but it was a good trip.

800km on tarmac is something, I'm gonna stop complaining with my 60-100km to get to gravel !
