The two days documented in this video are two of the most amazing days that I have ever had. Reaching the end of the Trans-Taig road is my greatest motorcycle ride and achievement. This is my first 4k video, so it should even look good on your TV. Thanks for watching!
Thanks, brother! It must have been all of the vibration. No issues after that. Next time I go, I will add an extra day at each campsite so that I can go fishing and experience the isolation for longer. You should come with.
@@tigercowardHello. I've watched the videos on your channel. Your video is excellent, but it won't go viral. Have a look at your channel. But why? Think about it. Your channel won't go viral, and you won't gain many subscribers or views. The reason is: 1. Your video isn't being SEOed properly. SEO Score: 0 out of 100.2. Your video isn't reaching the right people. 3. Not using video hashtags properly 4. Not sharing the video on social media sites.5. There are not enough ranking tags.6. Video performance: 0 out of 50 ]7. Not a single tag, description, or title is optimized for search engine optimization. I have a lot planned for your channel. There are a few more reasons why your videos are limited to your channel
I rode the TT this summer Wet, wet, wet. Made it to Brisay. My buddy’s tent got tore up by a bear. We should have not camped there above the dam. When we arrived there was garbage strewn about as they used standard garbage cans. Grrr… As a result, we had to turn around. Hoping to post a video this winter. Thanks for sharing. Cheers ~GrizzLee
Wow, that must have been scary! We didn't see many bears on the Trans-Taiga but there was lots of bear poop on the North Road. Did you see the bear? It makes an exciting memory for you, but I am glad it wasn't me. Thanks for tuning in!
@@tigercowardyes, we were eating breakfast in the shelter and the bear came up within 15 feet of us and shredded the tent. He wasn’t afraid of us and came back 3 times. We ended you starting one of the bikes to keep it away. It was windy and rainy. Another bear we saw, approached me when I shut my bike down to video it. He came within a few feet and I hit my horn and started the bike up to scare it away. Those bears by brisay are habituated to humans. I blame the workers. They must be feeding them.
Yikes, you are probably right about the workers. When we were in Labrador, the paving crews were feeding the bears. We didn't camp because of how many there were and how comfortable they were around the bikes. Crazy eh!
Incredible video and ride. I truly enjoy your trips and editing. I can't decide on getting an ADV bike, but your videos are fueling the idea. Thanks, ride safe and keep making great content. Oh, have you taken off road riding classes? Why do you prefer hard bags over soft? Do you change tires based on your trips? Thanks (if you covered this in a previous vid, I haven't seen it yet. I will watch that and answer all my questions)
Thanks for watching! Let me answer as many questions as I can. Keep them coming if I miss any or if you have more. I have taken off-rod courses, and they were fun and improved my riding immensely. I also ride a dirtbike. I prefer the hard luggage for three reasons, none of them really compelling: 1. All 3 of my Tigers came with hard bags. 2. I like the way they look. 3. They are more secure than soft bags. I really don't do off-road riding on the Tiger. Dirt roads but not Enduro type riding where I am crashing all the time and worrying about getting my leg caught. There is lots of discussion out there of hard v soft luggage by people smarter than me. That being said, I like my current luggage. Tires are another thing that the ADV community gets excited about. I don't. I see that you have already watched my tire video, so I will not repeat it. Ultimately, I installed the Dunlop Trailmax Mission tires for this trip because it was going to be over 2,000 km of gravel, and I wanted better traction, harder side walls for dealing with the rocks and sometime less likely to puncture. They were great. Thanks again for watching, and please reach out if you have any other questions. Ps. I am an avid listener to the Adventure Rider Radio podcast. There is lots of great info from experienced riders on there.
So there's fuel available at the end now? I'm looking to do complete the southern branch as well when I go this summer. Being able to fuel up in Caniapiscau would alleviate some of the fuel anxiety.

666 kilometers!!!! 😮
Diabolical, eh!
The road engineer was either a cultist or a joker. Lol.
Nice spot for roadside bike maintenance! Glad it was caught before anything serious happened.
Thanks, brother!

Great views - c ount me in! Do they use the calcium chloride up there to keep the dust down (and make them slick as snot when wet)?
Nope.
It gets dusty as heck in the dry! But there is so little traffic they don't care.

Yes, there is fuel at the airfeild in Caniapiscau. It was $3.50/l but considering where it is, it felt like good value!
That is great news on the gas. Great video !
Thanks.
