    Tom is probably the kindest person Ive ever seen to animals, you could hear the pain in his voice when he said he didn’t want to see this 😢

    I confirm the 200km "enduro" track we did was brutal. Let alone with a Joey in your backpack.
    Tom is a Legend for doing this !

    This episode had everything! Cool offroading, Tom's animal rescue, insistence that the WR is the best bike for the job, and Tom's face?! Only thing missing: Tinnies.
    Greatest episode ever, and I have seen them all.

    looks like great fun tom. what sort of usb port is on your bikes. i have one on my new kato 500 that has a led light that is always on and flattens the battery unless i disconnect the terminals. i want one that charges my hema, 2+ amps and no led light unless the motor is running. wish i could join u on some adventures but i want someone to carry my gear!! cheers jimmi

    Very commendable saving the Joey but if your mate hadn’t been riding so fast perhaps he could have avoided killing it’s Mother? I can only imagine the fear and stress the Mother must have been experiencing thinking what will happen to my baby, will they find my baby, will it survive? Slow down on the trails and preserve the wildlife. 👍

  • @smittyk7810
    @smittyk7810 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hey Tom, your compassion was great to see for Joey Joe Joe. I would like for you to consider not chasing the wildlife in drought and desert country because the animals need all of the energy they have for survival, and they only run in fear, not to play with you. Your admirable actions in this video suggested to me that it was the right time to share this perspective with you. Also, maybe you could organise something for you guys and followers to sponsor Joey Joe Joe or raise money for the lady to continue her work.

    • @smittyk7810
      @smittyk7810 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lacking empathy in your comment and sounds harsh because it is. Humans have taken enough of nature for their own so it does not hurt to give back. Typical cowboy truckie comment and part of the reason why we are in the sixth extinction. I'm a country man and a hunter and I still evolved to have empathy. Attitudes like yours can develop into narcissism and if let go far enough develops into a sociopath. Accidents can be forgiven but attitudes like yours need to be called out. Shame on you. How would you feel if aliens flew around at ground level mowing down humans indiscriminately or do you have no feelings at all, no empathy and no moral character? Time for you to grow up and evolve past a caveman is my opinion. Maybe it is good that humanity is heading for a population implosion (opposite to an explosion).
