That old blue car shell at 7:05 or so of your video is a '75 Chevrolet Vega. I live in the 'burbs west of Chicago, but in my teen years I ran my dirt bike thru the rurla woods and found places like this, exploring and sometimes collecting. A weird feeling to discover some houses seemingly just abandoned. But most had been looted or defaced and destroyed by hobos and other migrants.
Great video! Just be careful around those old homesteads, I heard that if the people who lived there were evil or died violently, their spirits will follow trespassers. Just remember if you have some bad luck come your way, lol.
I half expected some 85 year old fella with a long white beard, 4 teeth in his mouth (full of chewing tobacco) come storming out of the house with a shotgun yelling "Get off my land!" LOL
Brenton has also made scooter adventure vids from this trip: th-cam.com/video/QMpNj0k-kOg/w-d-xo.html

I tuned in for a scooter adventure and wound up in abandoned rural explorations. Very cool.

I have heard of that. This one didn't really have an evil vibe, just had a sad vibe.
bull
loved the video! The blue Chevy Vega had engine problems, they went thru OIL. Had a 73 Vega.
I had a 71, it burned ,more oil than gas
Very cool
Dude, you were not able to recognize a Chevy Vega? ...Cheerleaders can recognize that car.
Looks like a hoarders house
What top speed were you able to get out of that old Honda elite!?
I never really tried yet. Old tires and spuddery engine. I got it about 60 so far.
