Veterans Ride Along the Idaho BDR (Episode 1)

[@damienkeygan1735]

As an Australian navy veteran currently going through the medical discharge process I really enjoyed watching this series( like the other clips you do). Great to see the vet communities in all countries coming together to help each other. Looking forward to the next release 🏍️👍

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Thanks for watching. I served with some Australian Military when deployed to Iraq back in 04 and 05. Great guys to work with. If you ever come to the states. let me know

[@AdventureGlide]

What awesome riding there in Northern Idaho. Looks great thanks for taking us along.

[@SlowGoat54]

Thank you from a fellow veteran! I’d like to link up next time you’re in the Flathead area or collaborate with Flathead outdoors again! 😃

[@markw999]

Cool ride. I've seen lots of it in pieces and spent quite a bit of time at Rocky Ridge. Used to hunt up that way. Never been to Yellow Pine though. Avery's looking nice. Have to take a trip up there again - it's been 30 years or so. Last time I was there it was known as a good place to get into a fight. LOL. Pierce looks the same of course. Weippe's not likely to change much either. If I ever get downtown I'll stop in and see you guys. I usually avoid downtown like the plague, but I find my way down there once a year or so.

[@ownyourworld]

This is so good. One day I’ll visit America with my gs and do these trails

[@marcoluoma3770]

Welcome back! Anything that benefits vets is #1 in my book. Well done.

[@paulocarreiro5855]

I really like it when you include bits of history from the places you're going by. Thanks for sharing!

[@tonysilva5558]

Great to see fellow Vets out enjoying our great country on the back of motorcycles. Myself and fellow Paratrooper who live on opposite sides of our great nation (me in Florida and him in Washington State), hope to get together this summer in Moab on our T7's.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Right on! Do it 👍🏻

[@StreetbeatDesigns67]

Been waiting to see some more of your content for a while! good to see you back

[@backcountryadvmoto]

More to come!

[@shabingly]

I really enjoyed watching this, thank you. However, I am intrigued by the big "LEEDS!" In black marker on that cabin door. First thought that went through my mind was "typical, someone from round my way goes there and the most original thing they can think to write is that" 😂 then I remembered seeing something carved in a wooden window sill in a castle in Scotland "Cpl Yorkshire (can't remember the actual name, but it was so Yorkshire it made me laugh) , Bradford, 17something-or-other" and thought; one man's graffiti is another's archeological delight.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

So funny. I didn’t even catch that before so I went back and watched it. 😂. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching

[@WriterDude67]

Love that exhaust on your bike, especially knowing you let me ride it. The ride looked epic too. Good to see you again.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Right on!

[@gi-nox3150]

Since France near Lyon. A good pleasure to watch again your travel. Think you (Sorry for my english ) Beautifull country ride on your bike. assured escape.

[@0HARE]

I sure enjoyed your adventure here. You did a great job filming it all. Looking forward to getting out there myself soon. Happy Trails

[@reddawn300blk]

Great to see new content from you. By far my fav channel. Been learning a lot from you as I am new at ADV riding. Thanks to all of you for your service.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Much appreciated!

[@tivedenadv4674]

Finally! New uploads on your channel. I just have to say I really like the content of your videos. It makes me want to go out and drive myself. But the MC is set aside, as winter is now approaching in Sweden. For next season I might upgrade, and sell my F800GS -2016 and buy a Honda CRF1000 Africa Twin -2019 instead.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Same here. We have snow on the ground and all of the trails up high are covered in snow. Glad you like the video. More coming soon.

[@PeterVred]

Great video! Good to see you again, and that you are still riding the (2016?) Matte black Africa Twin!

[@michaelhall6930]

Great vid! Love that sound. Did IDBDR this summer and it was epic. No surprise to see Jim went down on the logging road marbles. It only takes a split second. Interesting how hard it is for the camera to capture what the trail surface is like whether the marbles, or the rutted south approach to Blue Cabin. Keep up the good work! BTW I'm going to go try to figure out if Blue Cabin is purely private (sign the logbook only and move on, which I've read somewhere), or if it's open for stays "first come". It's a neat place but I wouldn't want to assume. Maybe you know what's right...?

[@AT2021Rocker]

Good to see you back! Rode the BDR north to south this past summer, so much fun, such an awesome route! WABDR next august with same group of riders.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Sounds great! Thats a great one as well. Some really good lookouts on that one. I'm not suggesting anyone do it, but the WABDR can be done in 24hrs if a guy was told he couldn't and proved them wrong....just sayin...That might have happened 😂

[@DispatchMoto]

Absolutely beautful scenery. Love the tracking graphic shots.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Thanks! I played with several new edit styles on this one.

[@rlpatton1970]

watching this i was thinking Damn this guy is fast and i would never come in to that turn that fast.. guess not lol

[@sapperranger04]

Wish i lived closer. Im a DV and would live to have a place like that to ride

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Planning on doing these trips just about every year so keep an eye out and maybe one day it’ll work out or you can come along.

[@dredger9mm]

Awesome. I can almost smell the exhaust and the dust.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Thanks for riding along. Glad you liked it

[@davidmohr4004]

Really enjoying your vids...

[@Hammarlund_Moto]

Looks great 🙌

[@jdflhr]

Great video and content well done!

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Much appreciated! Glad you like it

[@DiegoAstorga]

That Fieldcraft cap rocks‼️👍

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Love those guys over at Fieldcraft Survival. Been working with those guys for a few months now and some really awesome stuff coming down the pike.

[@DiegoAstorga]

@@backcountryadvmoto I used to watch Mike's channel, until it got too political for my taste. Anyways, he and his team are pros at their business, I can't deny it. I think a survival mindset is vital in adv riding. I'm always learning from survivalist channels about tips and gear I can use in my everyday moto life. Of course, I will be waiting those vids.

[@DiegoAstorga]

@@backcountryadvmoto Hey, you still owe me a Klims AR tshirt‼️🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭

[@backcountryadvmoto]

+Diego Astorga bro I know! I literally think about that every time I put it on. They just aren’t going to bring it back. They discontinued it because of the political backlash they received from it. Complete crap. You got my word though if I happen to come across one somewhere, I’ve got you.

[@SheWillRide]

YEAH!!!!!!!! I love your videos and I love what you are doing for fellow vets!! I loved hearing the rider's stories and this outlet for vets is amazing. I would love to participate in this program but I"m on the East Coast. Thank you for another great video. Please keep them coming they are some of the best!!!! Hoo Ya to all the guys in the video, thank you for your service!!!

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Glad you like them! Thanks so much!

[@lcrawford5635]

You going to do this again? I got a group if vets starting to ride like this and would love to jump in.

[@Robert-qp1ut]

I just found y’all and love what you’re doing! Are you planning on doing another Vet ride and if so how do I sign up?

[@backcountryadvmoto]

I do plan on doing at lease one a year. With or without the support of VB40. I really enjoyed taking guys our and with all the great feedback, ill for sure be doing more. If you havent yet, subscribe and follow on instagram or watch for info on the backcountryadvmoto website. Thats the best way to stay up to date. Ill be posting more info there in the future.

[@dirtcopdualsport]

Hey thats my hometown!

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Wallace? If so im just down the road

[@dirtcopdualsport]

@@backcountryadvmoto yup! I know my family and I swing by best life this summer!

[@backcountryadvmoto]

@@dirtcopdualsport was I there? Did we chat?

[@dirtcopdualsport]

@@backcountryadvmoto no a younger gal was working if I remember correctly. I picked up a shirt and I think my wife got a sign. Great store! Kids loved the fort.

[@PeterParker-ot8pl]

How? Just how did buddy go down?...

[@backcountryadvmoto]

He was hot and tired and a fairly new rider. Just went down on the marble gravel in the corner 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@TLE1977A]

What are you using for your GPS?

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Garmin Zumo XT. Heres a video on it.kzbin.info/www/bejne/naGyiX-EZpaJeJY

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

03:07 GPS 😂 Sorry I'm immature...

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Hahahaha I know! That makes me giggle every time I’m in that area. It leads to “big Dick point” no joke 😂
