Daniel Byers Cycle South
Brazil
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 16 ธ.ค. 2008
Here are some videos from my thirty plus month journey from Ohio to Ushuaia on my motorcycle. My blog on ADV Rider is called Cycle South!
I was stranded in Brazil during the COVID-19 pandemic for over eight months.
I’ve recently returned to the US and am staying in Denver, recovering from a crushed left leg that happened on my second day back in the US.
Updated! Am now back home in Ohio, trying to continue to learn to walk. Riding though is easier for me, so adventures with Sunny continue!
Also some older various videos, from old clips of my Son Spencer pitching when he was younger to flying my RC Airplanes and quadcopter, but most of all videos of assorted motorcycles rides and trips.
I love to travel on two wheels.

Cycle South presents: British Columbia is Beautiful !!

As I make my way towards Alaska, I have been stunned by the glacial beauty of British Columbia. From Revelstoke onwards, the country has amazing landscapes and great road quality! It has been a pleasure to ride through. I am now in upper BC at Fort Nelson, and the weather now has turned cold and grey. The snow-capped mountains covered by conifers are now replaced by more green mountainsides and...

Today after three straight days of downpours, it cleared enough to put the drone up and take a look around the cabin the Matt built that I’ve stayed at the last few days. Hope you enjoy! It’s beautiful here. Peace and Love

In 2019 I was riding my motorcycle through South America and was in Lima Peru. I found an excellent motorcycle shop there called Big Trail Peru, owned by my now-friend Renzo. While I was there using their shop to do needed maintenance on Sunny, Renzo threw a party in my honor and had a lot of friends stop by. During the party, a Canadian rider and his girlfriend were dropping off their rented H...

Yeah. This was in July! Can’t imagine riding those passes in the snow
Very cool bike!!!!!!!
@@hdevo80 thanks man! Just finished a three month journey to the Arctic Ocean, Tuktoyaktuk and Alaska! More videos coming
Fantastic
Thanks man! Party on
Awesome. That is a lot of snow still hanging around.
ohhhohhh you ain't messing with the red hair
Go Danimal....Ohioriders guy here..
Hey man! Sorry I didn’t see your comment right away!
Great video, Dan. Next you have to do Alberta. Equally stunning.
My favorite singer
There is so much majestic scenery. The music fits so well. Gotta keep some level of wind noise dialed in, it’s not a car ride. Rough edges or not, thanks for sharing the beauty.
Beautiful country! Miles of smiles to cover.
Absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for sharing this journey!
6:04 - YES!
Beautiful riding! If we only rode on sunny days, we wouldn't get to ride much. Great music choice too.
Beautiful ride! May I suggest as you learn more about making videos: We never like to hear wind noise so either get a wind suppressor or mute the volume on those clips where it is obvious. And work on volume balance between music, commentary, and road/engine sound. Mostly I noticed the music came on too loud when I have the volume set for everything else. I love your choice of music too. I'm not a creator of good video so I can't tell you how to do that, just that it will make your videos even better. I will always watch, and enjoy whatever video you make. Thanks for taking the hours it takes to edit so that we can ride along.
Thanks man for the help. I’m doing this on an iPad, which (to me) isn’t easy. Also, I’m not even sure yet that I like the distraction from riding that dealing with cameras causes. The jury is still out. And no one seems to enjoy these videos enough (based on analytics) to where they’d be missed if I stopped making them
@@DanielByersCycleSouth I've only made a few videos and I was shocked at how much time editing takes. It is a different mindset when recording to make video. To be interesting we really need multiple camera mount locations as well as different scenes. I went through 6 hours of video and ended up with a three minute video. I have the camera on all the time so I don't miss anything but I won't do that anymore because it takes too long to review each file. I am going to try to just record a couple minutes when the conditions or view changes and if I pass something special when the camera is off I will turn around and ride it again. I wanted to video my trip from California to Anchorage but there were constantly neat things to see around every corner and after the first day I realized that wasn't going to work so I just took pictures. But even then I only stopped once in a while or I never would get anywhere. Later I thought I should have set my video camera to take a picture every few minutes all day long and if there was something extra special I could pull over and wait the length of time to make sure the camera recorded it. But I didn't think of it then. I think your trip is worth recording for the future you as well as the rest of us to watch. It will bring back great memories. If you make it for you, you won't be disappointed in how much (or little) interest each video gets from others. Editing time I think needs to be ruthless starting with only a few files, then cut and paste the special clips and add voice-over and music if you can. Just some of my thoughts though, others who actually make great videos can give you a lot more insight.
Beautiful country out there Dan! Enjoy it.
Thanks. It really is
Beautiful!
Thanks man. I probably should have split it into 5 min videos.
Glad to see you active and posting and all of it again Dan. You're livin' it man. This is 8382 from ADV... Kindest regards, Blair.
Hey Blair! Yeah it’s great to be out and about traveling again

Sorry to hear about Sunny.. 2.0 should be exciting.. By chance were you on Route 11?
Hey Zoso! I’m staying at Donnys while I build the new bike. You should call. We’re on to some great spots. Route 11 where?
@@DanielByersCycleSouth Will do.. I got a ticket from the Metroparks today with the Deus.. Route 11 in Canada when Sunny broke down?
@@davehorlacher she died above 11 on 109. So you know how to contact me or Donny!
Dave. We are on incredible spots. You need to contact me ASAP. Messenger. Facebook. Important!
@@davehorlacher Dave. Get in touch ASAP!
Oh Damn Dan! That sucks - I was looking forward to seeing you and sunny at Overland Expo East next month - But now maybe I can look forward to see you and Sunny 2.0? Sonny🏍 served you well Sir!🏍
Izzy and I will be looking for you and Sunny on the road. Stay safe
Hard to give a like for Sunny's demise Dan, but that's how it goes sometimes. My like is for telling the story, I dislike that Sunny gave her all... Sunny's SPIRIT lives on. And so do you and your travels. Keep on keepin' on man.
Thanks man. It was hard to narrate. I almost got choked up just saying the words out loud.
Larga Vida a Sunny mi Amigo #Danimal
Gracias mi amigo. Largo vida Esteban
Motor locked up. Disassembled soon. Likely nut holding primary gear in came loose
I haven't followed the whole saga. What happened to Sunny? How much needs to be rebuilt? Is this a Ship of Theseus kind of situation?
Likely nut holding primary drive gear on came loose. Disassembly shortly. New DR already acquired for a rebuild
Hell of a run!
Years ago I rode across.. now it’s too far gone on this end to make me risk it!
Sunny ain't scared !!!
Yee 🤠 haw
Really sick build, but I don't think I would ride something like that that screams money around the world through lots of dodgy places.
22 countries and counting and never had a problem like that. Folks love her
@DanielByersCycleSouth Yeah for sure that's been my experience as well is that most people everywhere are friendly. But still there are lots of desperate poor people around the globe. That's why my travel bike looks like beat up pos with a crappy spray job and duffel bags for luggage.
@@Shrouded_reaper whatever floats your boat.
I'm back my man I'm 10 Dan I'm Blake you met me in South Dakota I sighned your bike hope you see this 😊
