  • In this video I take an awesome day ride through the Eastern Missouri Ozarks on my 2024 Kawasaki KLX 300 and find myself along the Current River and on a hidden remote lake deep in the Government Woods...

    What a great video! Looks like so much fun! I’ll throw in another vote for Quadlock. I destroyed three iPhone cameras using the Xgrip mount. Just too much vibration and the phone can work its way out of the holder. This was awesome, thanks for sharing!

    Great ride. I just lost my phone using the same holder. Only no idea exactly where, gave up looking after going back several miles. Going to get a quad lock.

    Another great video, Jon! With the days getting shorter and cooler, I'll have to cut you some slack on trailering the bike. Don't blame you there. Always a good meal to be found in Eminence, too! Looking forward to the next one, keep up the good work!

    Thank you again, makes me homesick (Rolla). Can't find little back roads like that in "rural" New York. Often canoed the Current out of Eminence.

    Greetings John, Nice ADV gear set up. You ought to install a lanyard to your phone so that it don't fall all the way to the ground. It can save some $. Nice adventure trail and drone shots👍. You got me hungry mentioning those fast food restaurant menu at the end. Thanks for sharing and taking me along. BTW, ONLY Harley rider trailer their bike🙂

    That was a nice ride. Beautiful day. Kayaking on the river looked pretty good too. I like that KLX 300; You have it decked out nice, and it's so quiet. Your new helmet looks good. If you still have your previous cell phone, you can put it in the X-clamp and tether it to your good phone in your chest pocket. (I saw a rider in Europe doing that.) Keep the good cell phone on you and use it as a hotspot for the other one to provide the map.

    Had the same trouble with the x grip myself. Went to the claw mount, much happier with it for the rougher stuff. And wow, you found some dandy roads this day. I'm really enjoying your channel and makes me wish I didn't live on the northern end. Lol

    Watching from California. I also have a KLX300d as well as a Husky FE501s. I do a lot of what you do, explore. With all of the fires our local mountains are going to be off limits for the next year. Luckily, I have the desert. Would love to come ride the Ozarks some time with someone who knows those areas. I always enjoy your videos.
