As mentioned in this video, the technology is abundant and not going anywhere on these touring bikes. How do you feel about "Tech" on motorcycles?
I just traded my 2008 Softail Deluxe for a 2023 Street Glide because of the new tech. I’m getting older, and want the comfort and convenience more than my love of old school Harley’s. Keep healthy and know that even though the platforms you use are draining, the fans are always with you!
HD is finally in the 21st century!
I like the newer technology on the newer models. Bought new 2020 Tri-glide after my knee problems so I can keep riding. Still have my 1996 Road though.😊
I totally despise tech on motorcycles. I drive a semi truck and am inundated with technology everywhere. So I like just the bike and my brain working. I'm even looking at a new FJR1300 because it's so simple and effective at what I need.
Howdy
Hey Jess, the old man here. Jess, it sounds like your hobbie has turned into a job. That's why you're getting burnt out about it. You no longer have the freedoms you once had. And as far as your body changes. The older you get. The more your body changes, and your metabolism slows down. I'm on blood thinners for the rest of my life now. I get cold quite easy these days. And i truly know the feeling of riding a motorcycle when the weather changes overnight. I went for a ride to visit people i knew. The next day, i rode home. With only a thin jacket on. I sang religious songs to take my mind off the cold. By the time i walked into our house. I could no longer feel anything on my body. Thank God for a great mom. She got an electric blanket out for me. Turned it on high. Took about 30 minutes before i could feel the heat. Then i started shaking uncontrollably for close to an hour. Even with this in my past. I am still looking forward to buying another bike and riding again. I'll probably sell my Jeep soon so I'll have enough money for a bike. I'll keep you posted if you like Jess. Hope you and Jordan have many more safe and fun adventures together. Your friend always. Walter/ the old man.
Just about what I was going to say. It was fun until it became a job. Maybe change it up a bit. Take out a map and find routes you’ve never done. Then plan to do a few this season. But don’t lock yourself down to it. Then it becomes a “task”.
Gotta agree with this! Take it from an almost 59 year old, you're entering a new stage of life (the age doesn't matter) and you're questioning the status quo, and that's fine.
I agree. If it’s cold and or Raining. I’m not heading out in it. Getting stuck is different.
I am 62 years old and have been riding since I was 16 years old. In 2017 I was in an industrial accident. that destroyed both of my shoulders, and I am now fully disabled. I sold my motorcycle and stopped riding because of those injuries. I moved from Massachusetts to Florida last year and as Daytona bike week approached, I was really missing riding. I went and looked at the new Harleys and fell in love with the copperhead CVO road glide. After a test drive I figured I might not be able to ride all day, but I can ride and purchase it, I like all the new technology and out of all the bikes, I have owned this one seems to run and handle better than all of them. With that being said, some of the technology has me concerned. If the infotainment screen goes out, you have no speedometer, no gas gauge, no odometer.
Enjoy your new ride and don’t let TH-cam and making videos turn you off from enjoying riding.
I am with you on the tech failing. no roadside repairs can be done on these newer bikes.
You would think those screens are an expensive upgrade for harley but honestly these screens are cheaper than individual radio, gauges dummy lights etc.. They are mass produced screens and circuit boards that give us the illusion of expensive when in reality they are cheap.. No different than a 250.00 laptop that does it all. tech is cheap but sold off as expensive.. Sad but true,
Hang in there Jess! We all get in our funks and lose motivation at times. I feel when you are full time on TH-cam and other socials it is extra challenging. I always appreciate how raw and real you are with us. So many creators make life out to be so perfect all the time.
I completely understand about getting older and your body changing. I turned 60 in September and on one level I feel better than I have in years. On the other hand it scares the crap out of me there is more behind than in front of me. It may be why I decided screw it, I'm going to get a motorcycle and really learn how to ride. Now, I have no sense of balance anymore, so I ride a Freewheeler. My husband bought a TriGlide in July and I found out I could shift the gears without killing it. Bought mine in late November and loving every time I ride.
As far as tech on motorcycles, the previous owner of mine added a fairing with a radio and updated the exhaust. I am getting rid of the fairing and just going with a plain old large windshield. I have a Cardo that I can listen to music & chat with my husband. Have my phone mounted to the handlebars so I can navigate. Just really enjoying the idea of getting my trike back to its more original form. Now, if I were to go with the RG3 I would want the new updated screen and all the whistles & bells. I do not have I-Phone, so I don't know how well the tech works with Android. But I probably won't go for one because they haven't released a color I love like my Amber Whiskey.
I have the 23 CVO Road Glide. I get what you said about the bike shutting down to fuel up and it all disconnects. Here's the remedy that has worked for me to keep it all on when you fuel up: Keep it in first gear, put down the kick stand. Upon doing that, bike will shut just the engine down but electronically, it all stays on. Good Luck! Love you content! Take a break and enjoy your own life for a bit. Then come back rested up!
I so get understand how you are feeling. I have a couple of hobbies that I refused to spend more time with just because I don't want to fall out of love with them. Taking breaks is healthy and much needed when you need it. I so love you, your videos, and your honesty
As to your state of mind it happens to all of us. Winter doldrums. When the weather gets better and more stable you will get energized all over again. Thank you for sharing your experiences with all of us.
Same here Jess. Above 55 degrees and no rain here in upstate NY
Holding down the circle button that changes the trip A B display should turn on accessories mode
I know it does on my 2018 softail..wonder if it still works on these new touring models?
@@toddaod295 Pan America uses the hold circle button for accessory mode so new touring dash probably uses the similar software design
I understand your feelings on riding conditions. I actually enjoy riding when it sucks its I assume from 20years of misery in the Army it makes me at home.
Hey Jess, great video. I bought a white 24 RG in part based on seeing a video of yours. The tech is outstanding and Harley leaped ahead of the competition and it was an easy choice. At the same time, the suspension and other upgrades really helped make my decision. I traded in a BMW R18 TC which I loved. Now I am learning about upgrading my bike which was never a thought process with my beemer. I’m stoked. One thing Harley needs to do is get their dealers to offer FREE ECM updates for these bikes. The plug and play features need this. And, dealer updates are more reliable and it will help avoid software issues. Car companies do this under warranty but HDs want to charge shop time for it.
Jess!! I got the same situation happening here in Denver. I have an 08 sporty and a 05 Road King. When I have to go out in traffic for any reason, it's the Sportster. When I cross state lines or just wanna look badass, it's the King. I'm even considering getting a Himalayan. So I feel ya.
Great video, Jess. Hang in there. The riding weather is almost here. I got my Softail Slim out of storage at No Cages and have rode twice. I hope Farrow North has Hot Rods and Handlebars this year. I'd like to see you and Jordan.
Appreciate your content. Your channel is my favorite motovlog channel. The thing I appreciate about your content is how much of yourself you put into it. It doesn't feel like "a show" or an infomercial. You're just taking us all along on your journey with all of the ups and downs that go with it. There's a lot of honesty here. Thanks for all the effort you put into these. I look forward to whatever the next chapter of this story is!
Love your content. Take care of you. Ride on.
I know how you feel I live in michigan and only riding I have done in months was daytona this weather sucks can't wait for warmer weather so I can ride comfortably
I know what you mean about weight on a bike, My dream bike really was an 82 BMW RS, but those days are gone. why I liked it so much is that it truely was the ultimate touring bike. light and lots of room in the saddle plus large bags, full fairing that really worked, and mechanics were simple.now I have 2 bike in the garage one will be sold a Triumph Sprint 1050st. awesome fun bike one of the fastest tourers made, and siding on the sport side, but at my age i was starting to be a bit cramped up. so what did I do, I bought a 2004 Road king classic. a ouring bike that brings the smile back from my old BMW R100cs. solid yet not over powering, could use a 6th gear though.OH btw your channel helped me look at Harley. thank you for that. Happy travels my dear and maybe see you on the road one day. God Bless stay safe and keep up the great adventures for us all to see. If ever in Canada say hi ;)
Hi Jess, you make good choices! Very nice collection of rides, enjoy and be safe! 🤘🏍
I hear ya about just getting away on a ride.
Hey Jess. I appreciate your transparency towards the end of the video, I'm sure there are so many people who can relate with you on that. I wanted to recommend a book called "Atomic Habits" by James Clear. While I'm never one to push opinions or unsolicited advice on anyone (I HATE when people do it to me), and I know that what we see on TH-cam is only a snapshot into your personal life, I have been in a very similar space mentally to what you are talking about. That book has given me so many tools to evaluate my situation in a way that I have finally been able to implement meaningful and positive changes in SO many areas. Just wanted to pass that along. Love the new Road Glide, that white paint is GORGEOUS.
That is exactly what I always say, Jess! I rode for 6 yrs, no other options for transportation, so all seasons and all weather... now I'm a dedicated "fair weather" rider. Nothing to prove anymore, right? Last year I rode 600+ miles one way to Ocean City Bike week and loved it, got stuck in heavy rain on the way home for a couple hundred miles and it was no big deal but I'd never leave the house in even a light shower on a bike when I have a better option in the driveway. Like you said though, if I'm out and about and get stuck in whatever, meh... don't love the idea but no big deal, just not volunteering to go get wet!
I’m with you on fair weather riding. I have spent 15 years as a motor officer and still love riding just as much as the first day. But there’s a huge difference in riding for fun when the weather is nice versus riding in the rain and cold while getting paid for it.
Very refreshing, honest video. I think a lot of people completely understand where you're coming from.
I appreciate that!
awesome video Jess thanks a lot !
I agree, the reconnection with new bikes is annoying for phone or Cardo, I have it on my Pan Am, the connection to the HD app is just not reliable, have to keep reconnecting to get the units correct.
I agree with you on your '24 RG. It feels like the best bike I've ever ridden. Not getting rid of my '18 Street Glide. I'm old and I'll keep it till I die.
I agree with you on this fucking cold weather too. My wife passed away and my daughter's moved to Texas. I'm packing up my tools and bikes and moving to South Texas or Tampa area. I'm sick of this shit in CA
Hey Jess all I can tell you is to be thankful and great full for where you are in life. I am 65 years old I am retired I have a part-time lawn care business I work part time. Life was really good then my wife died a year ago so I am starting over and I am very grateful for where I am. I road a Harley for years and sold it in 2013 I'm thinking of getting a nother one but not sure. Live is good just have to make the best of it. Good luck.
Was able to get the Klockwerkz flare windshield for my ‘24RG. What a difference maker for a tall dude like me!
For ref, I’m 6’2”
So I haven't tried it yet because I don't have the bypass BUT in the bike settings you have the ability to have prompts and commands done through your headset so I would think theoretically even if your using the bypass you should be able to have your text messages read to you through your cardo and be able to respond through your cardo as well.
Wow, one thing amazes me. Me being close to twice your age (I'm 63) have the same thought process about weather.. I just can't get myself to start a ride when it is raining. If I get caught in rain when riding it's OK, just embrace the suck, you know... Last week we got 6" of snow here so I know exactly how you feel. Regards from Gothenburg - Sweden and big thanks for this video!!!
Nice vid kid!!! Keep it up cause You are awesome!!!😊❤👍👏🏻
In 2018 I got a Road Glide, I loved it. Lost it when I lost my job during covid. Shadetree got me into Hondas. Just got a 92' GW GL1500. I love it. Big touring bikes are fun, I want to ride them all. Also, I like your natural freckles and your husbands sportster. 💛Glad my life on two wheels brought me to Florida and to meet you at FA weirdo campout. 🍺
You can give me the old one, I would keep it on the road as I'm in Texas and can ride year round here.
I fully understand the creativity thing and trying to make YT videos every week. I have gone to doing a regular Live demo each week. That would be harder for you I know. Now I finally feel that I want to do a pre-recorded video during the week, but finding the time to get it together, recorded, edited, and posted is getting tough as well. So, yeah, I feel your pain. My suggestion is this, do what you enjoy. Feel free to do the personal things, like the changing habit stuff and the struggles there, but be sure to spotlight the riding, your true joy. I’m enjoying what you’re sharing and look forward to the adventures you and Monroe have ahead.
I've only watched a few of your videos over the past couple years but have been very impressed with your riding knowledge, technical and production skills in the IT/social media/biker world and more. You aren't the average young lady. Please don't make yourself sick trying to keep up with the rat race world we all live in, give yourself a break. You've earned it. If necessary you need to give yourself permission to be normal and walk and/or ride away from the pressure. 🙂
Not riding a motorcycle, but I am now driving a 2024 model Subaru, which has Apple Car Play plus of course the myriad of safety tech features etc. prior to to this the car I was driving was a 2000 model vehicle. So yeah it is quite a leap, but I must admit I like the navigation and obviously playing my tunes, which I must admit my tunes take up about half of the memory available on the phone.
I'm 59 and have been riding since I was 10. I always say I will ride in the rain, but I won't leave the house in the rain. I can still handle the cold fairly well with the exception of my feet. I like the styling changes of the new Harley, but I don't use any of the technology when I ride so that doesn't affect me at all. I don't know if I will ever get another new Harley though. My 18 Heritage is still doing all I need it to do.
Yup,when I hit thirty had to completely change the way I eat.Before could eat anything and not gain weight,now no fast food ,beer or soda or junk food.
cheer up girl, you are awesome!!!!!
Cruise control is nice, but, damn, we honestly dont need any more tech than that.
The new glide looks considerably lower.. I like it
wait till you turn 50 lol im loving it. you will be ok! Hang in there love your videos!!
I feel this video on so many levels. Thanks for being transparent and for being you. In the wise words of Dory from Finding Nemo, “Just keep swimming.”
There might be a solution to the issue you address regarding disconnection of bluetooth etc. when turning off the bike, e.g. for refueling. Saw a video on this where you hold down the trip button and turn off the bike at the same time. Then switch back in to Run position without starting the bike. I will get my 24 RG shortly and haven`t had the possibility to test this method myself.
We went from no snow to having a spring nor'easter, and after the snow stopped I had 21" of fresh wet heavy snow outside 😢
I wouldn’t worry about getting a bigger truck to pull the trailer yes it’s nice to drive fast
Egads, the motorcycles, amazing! Nice scoots, one for each mood. Screw Instagram, stay with what you enjoy.
You are awesome. Now some of us get the winter blues. Spring one day winter for weeks😂. Having 3 bikes and wanting to ride them all. But can not. Some times it is just my mind and being lazy. But we can 😅over come it. I am 73 but love life and riding. You are 30 and will be fine. I like ride to food always some where to eat😊. You also stop at nice places. Enjoy the small stuff. I enjoy your tuffness keep up what you do.🎅🏼🏍🇺🇸💖💖
I love riding and all kinds of motorcycles. Five and a half years ago all I wanted to do was ride. So I sold my nice car and bought two motorcycles. A touring bike and a Supersport. I live in Portland, OR and I commuted and took care of everything and rode everywhere only on my bikes. The touring bike had all the necessary bags I needed to go grocery shopping and several very long road trips all over with my teen son and what ever girlfriends that I had during those five years. The Supersport was for commuting and fun riding when I wanted to get on some twisties, which we have plenty of here in Oregon. I rode in all seasons and loved how everyone would tell me how tuff I am for it. When I turned 38 last August I guess I got burned out a little and could not see myself riding thru another winter, so I bought a car. And have been driving until now. My bikes just sitting waiting for warmer days and I don't feel as tuff anymore, maybe it's the age, or maybe it's just having to gear up before every ride that got to me. It adds to the "discomfort" of getting things done. I am still obsessed with road trips on my bikes, but now only waiting for warm sunny weather. Because God knows I've experienced being frozen to death way too many times. My bath tub will tell you, ha ha.
Speaking about riding lightweight motorcycles I sold my dual sport bike because I didn't enjoy riding on dirt as much as riding my Goldwing around town or on long road trips.
Great video thank you very well done thanks again cheers to ya.
I live in northern NY. Been going south alot and coming back to cold, and damp. We get old it totally sucks. Seasonal Depression. Which is why i need to go south. Bet alot of southerns don't understand it.
You seemed happier and more energetic in the older videos love your videos keep your head up
I used to live in Seattle, if you didn't ride in the rain, you didn't ride. I rode every day there wasn't ice on the road.
WoW THAT IS AMAZING AND THAT FOR NORTH ⬆️ I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO THAT 🤔🤔
I finally got to bring home my 2024 Road Glide home today Blue Burst on Black
I have constantly fought with Apple CarPlay to get it to work. I can get it to function about 50% of the time, even with the Sena connected.
I think you should at least look into Sinister Sounds. My local mechanic installs them and is at all the big rallies. Awesome sound.
Cheers Jess ! 😀
I still haven't been able to get to mine. Too damn cold and rainy! A newer bike would probably perk me up a bit. Hint, Hint. Take care of yourself first please. When you're feeling good it definitely shows in your videos. All my best. 😉
I'm from Ohio also, we are looking for homes there but weather is changing seems like. All my family down there are cold and I'm riding here. Not sure if in ten years it would be worth it. Great video 👍
Hey girl..... it sounds like your a little burned out. So since you are always out traveling, maybe you need a staycation =) You know nothing beats some chill time at home to reset. Wishing you the best!!
I'm over 55 and I just decided to do something on my bucket list. Listening to you, I feel a tho this might be a big mistake. Maybe that ship has passed and I need to do something else on my bucket list. I just don't know.
I don’t know if you will see this, but if you do, I have the same struggle with my health I have found the best way for me is to track my food and I mean every piece of food that goes into my mouth even down to the oils and butter, I was 330 pounds now I am 190. I don’t do any kind of fad diet that’s out there. The one thing I don’t do is I try to eat everything with no added sugars or natural or artificial flavors. I also do at least 10,000 steps per day and I go to the YMCA every day and try to do a one hour workout of some kind.
I totally forgot about the Beamer! You and Jordan should do a big ride this summer with the Road Glide and the BMW! Maybe hook up with Adam on a leg of his convoy to Sturgis. Maybe hit some rides in Montana. Great video, love your honesty.
Not sure i’ll be able to join the convoy, (i also have lots of travel and plans this summer) 😅 Europe is a BIG chunk of summer time travel plans
@@HerTwoWheels WHOA!!!!! Europe?!?! That will be amazing! Can't wait Jess!!!!
For now riding is my hobby and is my outlet. For me it’s fun until it’s not then it’s time to change it up. Now for the technology in the new bikes I love my old simple Harley and love my gauges. I’ll take an old solid state relay logic over the widgets any day
I know you had issues as has everyone else withe the new bike and the very poor audio. Jay with Volunteer audio is working on a plug and play hertz amp and speaker solution, but until the technology is tested and rolled out, he has come up with a Kenwood amp and speaker system the he goes into the amp and modifies to work with the Rockford amp. Everything including the wiring is plug and play with no cutting and no modifications, so it won't void any warranties
Wwwwwoooowwww Jess I hear you I've been following you regularly the past few months and personally iam 63 and retired,I remember when I was your age it was like living life in the fast lane with no time to slow down and rest..I think you just need a little break and relax and regroup with yourself..I know it's hard because of you live in OHIO and the seasons play a role in your riding and recording videos..Just remember have fun, enjoy life,stay healthy,maybe take a vacation you and your husband without motorcycles,camping,try something different!! LOV YOU VIDEOS,KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! PS..I live in south Florida since 1973..Hey try some R&R at Disney or Universal Studios,Sea World in your winter months here in Orlando Florida or our beautiful beaches too,but not in the summer months!!! LOL..LOL..😂😂😁😁🤔🤔😎😎
I think Hegshot and cycle fanatix had a thing in the cubby that allowed 2 connections.
Some pretty straightforward talk there. Yup, it gets harder as you get older (I'm old enough to collect Social Security) and turning your hobby into your job doesn't make it easier - been there with both the motorcycle and firearms industries. These days, if the temp is below 40 or rain is likely, I don't ride either. Being paid to ride is one thing, going out in it for "fun" is something else. You can get past it, it takes some work and introspection to rediscover what you find exciting about motorcycling. Not so easy in the winter though... believe me, I know as we had a couple of sunny days at the start of this month followed by a surprise gift of snow from Mother Nature! Hang in there, while it may not seem like it Spring will arrive to let you get out, ride, do that introspection so you can create content. There's an old piece of advice about all of this: "This too shall pass" and it will.
Hey Jess…not gonna lie but I love Appa. But I’m not great with change lol. But my opinion doesn’t matter. Congrats on the new CVO. Enjoy your content!
Hey Jess, first off love how passionate you and your husband are about riding. Very jealous that you get to do it for a living, but can understand how it could be exhausting. I’m in my 30’s as well and can relate to what you’re saying. That being said, check out a gentleman by the name of Gary Brecka. His knowledge is wild, and he has changed my life for the better along with many others and some A list people you may have heard of. Apologies for the rant, but I hope you this and things start turning around for you.
Jess…..come over to the Can Am family.
I ride year round but I live in Arkansas. Not far from Pig Trail Harley. I ride a 2016 Road King
I kept moving up the ladder to bigger and more cumbersome bikes. Turns out it was the smaller bikes that were more enjoyable to me. I get more of a sense of freedom and excitement from a bike that's lighter and simple.
Would love to see a ride/comfort comparison between the new RG and the Beemer.
Stay tuned!
You could move to AZ. MIND/BODY/Health and RIDING ALWAYS!
My only fear is the electronics. Have they been proven enough. What is the cost of the electronics if something goes out after warranty? I love your videos and adventures as well. I view every video you have to see what is coming next. Glad you both made it home safe.
I feel ya girl!!!!
May I suggest running hot wires from your battery to your accessories you want left on while the bike is off🤷🏻♂️
As far as diet and feeling different, it’s an age thing and how your body reacts for the foods you eat. I am in my 50’s and actually went plant based for a couple of years, and have really felt my best during that time. I am now back to eating meat, have been for a while, and once again my body is giving me the same signals as before. So maybe going back to drastically reducing my meat and dairy consumption. Just my observation and experience I’ve had with what you had mentioned.
New bike faring looks like a storm trooper helmet
😂😂😂
🤔 I LIKE THAT 🤔🤔
I like the shape of the the 2024 fairing okay but I actually really prefer the older fairing. I also still prefer analog gauges and having an ignition switch. Just my opinion. I also don't listen to a radio when I'm riding even on long trips so I get it. I'm weird. Honestly I'd take either bike but in a perfect world I'd want Appa with the 2024's engine.
Hey Jess, question...did you in a video talk about the seat being to wide (near the tank) that kept you from putting your feet all the way down on the ground? am I remembering that correctly? I have an Indian Challenger...visited our local Harley shop because I thought the Road Glide was lower...turns out it's not...really...but the seat kinda felt the same...If this is the case maybe I should get a seat that's thinner on the front part (again near the tank) I hope this makes sense...I'm 5'7 and my feet just don't touch the ground...looking for a remedy. Thanks :) Love your vid's
I know with my Indian my phone is connected to bike and my cardo is connected to my phone. The sequence I have to go thru is cardo off so bike & phone connect then turn cardo on yes every time if I don’t turn cardo off it may not always connect. I don’t know if that helps.
Burn out is bad & sounds like you got a little of that. Maybe living in the toy hauler is stressful. Go see you GP get some blood tests and see if you’ve maybe a bit run down & a little deficient body balance wise. And give yourself some love and don’t be so tough on yourself. Sometimes our own self talk can be our worst enemy. Think about yourself differently at times & give yourself some love to nourish your soul.
Honest answer? I've disabled my IG for the past few months or so...there was a little FOMO and it was weird at first-but really I feel like I can breathe easier now. My head isn't spinning as much with "should I post this? Is this good enough? Is this even relevant?" Etc etc. Anytime I think about going back, I don't want to anymore. I've been more present, I have time to do more of what I enjoy, I have a LOT more peace...I know it's not the same for everyone, but I'm glad to be away from IG. I'm still able to keep up with my favorite content creators-even the ones that post maybe once every 3 weeks feels like a great catch up session.
I recognize the amount of hard work you've put into ALL areas of your channel, it's far from easy and you've done an amazing job. I hope you're able to look back on all you've accomplished and give yourself some credit...but remember, you can't fill from an empty cup.
Whether you post 3x a week or once every 3 weeks, I'll be around. Take care of yourself Jess!🤘🏻💗
You're the best Reese!! And I love hearing that life has been a bit less hectic without Instagram.
Do you have to have an Apple phone to sync with your bike, or can Android phones work with your new Road Glide?
Talk to John over at cycle fanatics about the bypass
It still doesn’t solve my issues
THAT IS GOOD ADVICE SHE APPARENTLY DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT 👍👍♥️👍👍
For the end of you video, I am 50, I had lost 60 pounds during Covid just by changing my mind set and restaurants being closed. In your position traveling and making these videos it is near impossible to eat healthy and be healthy. Any food ordered off a menu is either loaded with salt, butter, or portions are entirely too big..Add to that the "pressure" or influence to have to drink or eat just because others are doing it is real and hard to overcome. As soon as the world opened up I felt myself falling into the old habits and sure enough it crept back on, was an eye opener for me. Yes some can eat whatever they want and stay apparently healthy, while others can't cheat at all. genetics. Fight the fight, eat small portions, take home leftovers or leave them behind once comfortable, share meals with your significant other and stand up to pressure and you will feel better, it may not show on the scale but it will make you feel better. I always thought making these videos would be a grind as eventually you sorta run out of stuff to talk about or do. Projects seem to be what the super tubers have going to keep channels interesting, old bike builds, repairs, endless reviews.. But Keep it up we obviously enjoy your content!!
My apple carplay and the entire indian ride command system stay on after killing the engine on my challenger at the gas pump. No disconnect issues. (Also way more horsepower for way less money :D)
Jess, it is hard to get into a good frame of mind when its cold, windy, rainy/snowy, gloomy out a lot of the time. Move out to Arizona where Mr. Sunshine comes to visit most every day its hard to get down. Now, we do have excessive heat to contend with from time to time. We moved here about 12 years ago and never regretted it or missed the cold and snow. See ya soon.
Do the trips Jess, screw the vlogs....slowdown life, thats what riding is all about...hang in there...😀
Now this is the type of video I originally subscribed for.
The human aspect of "it is what it is" for lack of better words, is a great captivator and there's a lot more to that conversation but it's a rabbit hole it's a rabbit hole that involves beers😂
On a side note education is your ally when it comes to North American food sources and what makes you feel the way you are. There again that's a rabbit hole conversation that automatically makes me think of true organic fair trade food for supper tonight with a use Samuel Smith's organic chocolate stout. Mmmm beer.
I feel ya on lack of motivation. Winter sucks literally.
Jess, I think I would take off for 2-3 weeks. Focus on yourself, take a bike trip somewhere warmer, take your camping gear with no video as much as we would love to be there. This is for you. Thanks for sharing
Vacation hangover is a real thing 😢
it will be fine😀
Audio requirements is stupid for Carplay... its also very ableist of Apple. I need visual apps on my phone/screen, but they make me buy some audio device to hook up to use it when I can't even hear...
What about the weight issue you started talking about?
New ones are just significantly lighter and better balanced.
