In 2019 my long time wife and best pal (same person) took up motorcycling and we have never looked back. The freedom it has unlocked and the new perspective it has given us on this beautiful land has inspired us to try to capture some of our adventures to share with friends and the people we've met along the way. We are new to all of this and just having some fun in an otherwise complicated world. Be awesome everyone! R

After a long trip out to B.C. and back I discovered the Indian Springfield is not the bike for me. I love to camp and the bike was just too heavy to navigate around the campsites. I love my new Indian Chief Bobber Darkhorse and, although it is lighter and smaller, it does not feel like a downgrade. #Indian Scout 60 #Indian Springfield Darkhorse #Indian Chief Bobber Darkhorse.

After almost 30 years, Fraser and I reunite to try something new to both of us. Riding off-road over 5 days and 900 miles, we sampled many beautiful roads, some bourbon and way too many Cheese-steaks along the way!

Motorcycle Camping in Algonquin Park on an Indian Scout
Nice! We didn't go to Glacier, but our rides through Yellowstone were great! I loves the Grand Tetons as much, if not more. Thanks for another wonderful video!
Enjoyed both videos! Your music was fantastic! I'm headed up to do the Lake Superior Circle in a few weeks!
I LOVED the Lake Superior tour. If you’re camping, Ney’s P.P. Is a must! Quiet and gorgeous!
What time of year did you start the trip? June?
We started mid July and returned mid August. Thanks for watching!
Very beautiful roads.
They were STUNNING!!
Great music and next level sights on this episode!
It's pronounced Dew-Boys
Doh, Barb and I just got back from a car trip out west. We stayed in Fairmont Hot Springs for 4 days. We wouldn't have missed each other by much. It was scorching hot and very smoky. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Ugh! We really need to start co-ordinating!!😂😂😂
@theroadknight2669 LOL. We were actually heading to Jasper first but had to reroute south. I didn't get hit by any trees though!
Poor Jasper! That’s tragic.
@@theroadknight2669 awful!
Just when I had given up hope, you have returned 😂
It’s good to be back. We were in Arizona for a good part of the winter when tragedy struck….I lost my GoPro with a good part of the footage of the trip. I may be able to cobble something together but it’s not a great story and we are on to better things. Thanks for watching!
I rode from Calgary to North Bay and back last summer. He last day, I just marathoner it from Portage LA Prairie to Calgary as riding across the prairies is a little mind numbing. I think I even fell asleep for a bit... looking forward to the next video.
Yikes that smoke! Scary? And you did NOT tell us about the near miss with the tree! All kinds of adventure…
Ya! The tree was wacky!! We were so lucky.
Yeah, those fires did horrible damage. So sad for the people in Jasper and surroundings. Man, your camping chairs look comfy!!! You guys were lucky not to have that tree fall on someone's head! Hope you had fun in Sturgis.
Great video. Good to see you back online
More to come!
Hi I'm Wayne! Love your video!!! I live in the Hedgesville WV area and am looking for a good friend or friends that like to ride motorcycles (especially ADV motorcycles), go fishing, camping, back road and trail riding, exploring, or just hanging out with like minded people! If you or anyone you know needs a good friend, like I do, and is interested in getting out of the house and going on some adventures please let me know!
Great video! Did ya ride the Tenere with the stock seat??
@@darrinbruns4029 I sure did! It’s not great but I stand up a lot and can easily manage a full day on the bike.
Earlier this year I dropped my bike backing it out the garage it wedged between the door ,my back was very sore for a week or two .😮
Oh my goodness!!!😟
Great inspiration. I was doing the Google trying to figure out how to do exactly what you are doing and your video popped up. Well I am excited to follow your journey and get some insight into what I am facing. Kinda excited and a little scared but I'm going to do it. Look forward to following your journey.
Thank you! Safe travels!
Wow! What a nice surprise to see my home town. Dark skies park is that Gordon's Park? I see the road in is about the same. Terry and Rita must me retired by now. Originally that was the mounted animal nature trail and there were wood displays of terry's taxidermy and nature displays along all the trails. My first job was with them in 1997 or 98. There was a huge joint scouting and guiding event there that was hit by a tornado in 95 or 96. Very nice to see this video. Great job!
I’m not sure if it’s part of Gordon’s park. It did have another area that allowed campfires and light which was equally as beautiful. The roads however are pretty dicey! Thanks for watching!
As the owner of a 16 Springfield dark horse I love the bike, enjoy the ride, to me it's the riding bike I ever owned
Agreed! Beautiful bike and so comfortable on those long rides!
Ok, finished all 9 parts. I'm tired but it's a good kind of tired. Thanks for putting this together.
You're very welcome! Thank you so much for your support!
When you spot your hangout in a travel video, Hockley General Store......
And from there to Forks of the Credit for butter tarts at the coffee shop!
@@theroadknight2669 Been going to Belfountain for decades, meet up, hangout, group ride on to either Belwood or Hockley. Glad I found your channel, good vibes, good music, good views......will binge watch until end of July when I can start riding again. Currently recovering from quadruple by-pass heart surgery. I blame the butter tarts🙃
Those damn butter tarts! Heal fast!
Love that motorcycle
Great video and love the music! I live in the Arctic and am planning a six week road trip on the bike in August and September. Watching biking videos will have to get me by until then. You’re quite an interesting woman!
Thank you so much! I hope you will hit the interior B.C.! Amazing riding. Enjoy!
Well done. You captured the experience very well.
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊
Wise move to cool it overnight in anticipation of the heat.
It was nasty!
what is the name of the camp site with the bus ??
That campsite is called Rider’s Retreat. They cater to motorcyclists. Check it out!
great videos on this trip. very well done.
I’m so glad you enjoyed them!
Really enjoyed this episode thanks for sharing 🇦🇺👍😁
Our pleasure!
Back it in so can drive it out. The bike looks great
Another outstanding video with excellent background music. Ride safe.
Thanks, will do!
Great series! Any chance you’ll get episode 6 back up?
I’m hoping to. I will have to rework it for a violation. 🫣
I used to live in Gravenhurst in the late 90's. I built a 1971 Triumph Tiger 650, and had the best time ever on all those roads. had a family cottage on Raven Lake as well. (Back bay) by the damn. thanks for the memories! Great vid.
It’s a beautiful area!
I hope to be visiting your beautiful country in August 2024. I want to visit some cities but also want some off the beaten path camping on my ADV. I hope to travel all the way up through Nova Scotia and Newflundland and probably come back through New England. I am actually studying French for the trip even though I know it isn't necessary. Thank you for taking us along on your ride. I enjoyed the music and the film effects.
That will be a beautiful trip and a great way to practice your French!
Good swap 👍🏽 congrats, enjoy 😀
Great video! I bought a Scout last Fall and am planning on getting into moto camping this Summer. Great inspiration, thank you
Awesome! Thank you!
Couldn’t have picked a better “steed” for the trip👍
It was awesome on those long riding days!
I have a ‘17 Roadmaster, with 71 thousand on it. It’s been reliable as my ‘06 Goldwing!
Who no sound of the sweet 116? You're missing out the best part sister👍
😂
Did you go to Phoenix and get some riding in?
We did! Stay tuned for the videos!
Always fun to change it up. Looking forward to your adventures on the Indian Chief Darkhorse. 😎
You and me both!
Great camping trip. Being from the UK I have no idea what a bear box does? Do you get in there in case one comes along? I doubt it but what else could it do? Thanks
Great question! You put in your food and any toiletries like toothpaste or deodorant that have a scent. Bears will break into a car for a stick of gum! You do not want that stuff where you’re sleeping.
@@theroadknight2669 Of course makes sense. Thanks
Do you recommend strapping down your bike for the ferry crossing? I remember doing it a couple of years ago when I took a ferry to Newfoundland.
It depends on the ferry. Some do not require it but the Chi Cheemaun does. They do supply tie downs if you do not have your own. There were some shorter crossings when I got to B.C. that did not require it. Shorter, calmer crossing I suppose.
Great video, we( my wife n I) just bought a bike plan to do some trips.
Great video. i need to get your music play list.
This music was from Artlist.
Planning a trip from NB to Dawson City in July. I am spending the winter season to research camp grounds and places to stop along the way ( and building my play list ). Love the channel. Keep it going! @@theroadknight2669
That sounds amazing! I hope you share it!
Where do you find the BDR course downloads? Great trip.
You’ll find all the GPX files at ‘RideBDR.com’. Good luck!
@@theroadknight2669 thank you so very much 🙏
Great adventure, keep going.😍
Just WOW. That's a trip of a lifetime. Great video.
Yes it was!
Thanks for sharing your adventure! Such amazing wildlife!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks again....Great memories!
