- In this video, I went on a solo motocamping trip through the Lassen Backcountry Discovery Trail (Not to be onfused with a BDR) and it was a ton of fun! I didn't finish the whole thing due to time constraints, but I covered over 130 miles of dirt, toured the National Park, and had an awesome night of camping. Overall I would say the trip was a huge success. Thanks for following along!
You have a Great Mother In Law!! I would definitely like to see more videos preparing those meals! Thank you for a great video!😊
Great video...just now getting back into adventure bike riding after several decades and a stroke recovery. It is the adventures we make out of life , that makes life memorable and gives us meaning.
I found your youtube channel by accident. Please make more motorcycle trips, i wish you good health. Greetings from Poland. You inspired me to ride a motorcycle ! Thanks !
Escaping the city, finding a nice camping spot, enjoying a beverage and meal out in the woods and some good back roads. Just don't get much better! Fantastic video man!! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the kind words man! And thanks for watching!
Best Motocamp video I have seen!! Awesome job.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, thank you!
The freeze dried food looks great, please make some videos on that and good food prep for outings.
Will do! Thanks for the feedback! I’ll try to get something out soon. Thanks for watching!
At the 17.45 mark you're on point regarding hard-packed dirt roads with loose gravel, and the need (regardless of tread) to be a bit extra mindful. I was recently in NW Arkansas' Boston Mountains near the White River (aka, the Ozarks, and they're breathtaking!!!) on my GS850 Adventure negotiating a short, blind right hander. Right at the apex it dropped in elevation AND (ugh) to a fairly strong off-camber. Was only doing 25 max, and it was an instant wash, ha. The protection bars did an awesome job! Totally surprised there wasn't a scratch on the bike, save the protection bar, and the right hand guard. Fun & rich times & memories. My Navy buddy was with me (I'm a Marine) and comes up behind me, stops, and is scrambling around... I ask him through our mics... what the heck are you doing? He goes: trying to grab my phone for a photo op. Jerk, LOL. Semper Fi
That’s what friends are for! Haha! Glad you were ok.
Semper Fi. He had your back!😁
Lassen has always been one of my favorite parks to ride a motorcycle in. Until I found your video, I had no clue there was a Backcountry route through the national forest. This route is getting added to my to do list!!!! Thanks for sharing this and helping me find out about this route!
That’s great! I’d like to do it again sometime as well. It’s a great route, and totally beginner friendly. Thanks for watching!
Good day to you!
I am a HONDA Cross Cub senior rider from Japan.
Enjoying camping and touring.
This is so nice adventure video!
Awesome!
I leave
Have a nice day my friend!
Thank you so much for watching! I’m thrilled you enjoyed it.
Absolutley YES on the homemade freeze dried meals! I know a year and a half later!
Great to see some northern California stuff. Such an awesome place to ride! Thanks for the video.
Yes please. Please share how to make freeze dried camp meals. Great video. I enjoyed your video and commentary.
Thanks for the kind comment! I’ll try to get the freeze dried video out soon.
Yes please 🙏 love to see how it's made !
Great video!!!
Thanks for sharing! Really enjoy your commentary and all the beautiful footage. You do a great job! I love doing these types of trips too. Usually bring a fly rod along and hit a few trout streams at the same time. Motorcycles, fly fishing and camping are the holy trinity for me! Cheers, from Edmonton, Alberta!
Thank you for the kind comment! Sounds like we are definitely of like mind. Thanks for watching!
highly envious of how fortunate you are to be able to do this. thanks
I am very fortunate indeed! Thanks for watching!
Awesome vid. Would like to see the freeze dry food process. Catch ya down the tail. -Mike
Really enjoyed this video. Awesome ride and campsite. Subscribed! Cheers from Lincoln, CA.
Very nice video! I'm jealous of you to live in such a great and beautiful country! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you! I am very blessed with lots of beautiful areas to explore. Thanks for watching!
Meu amigo , descobre o seu canal a pouco temo mas,já estou encantada ..com a suas aventuras
As imagens são lindas parabéns!
Sucesso e obrigada pelas lindas imagens ..
Abraço do Brasil 😊🇧🇷
That breakfast looked amazing.
Awesome video again my man! Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks for watching man!
Cool very nice video master 😉👍👍interesting moto camp , thank you for sharing and many KTM greetings from Germany!
A really nice video - thanks a lot!
Would sure love to see some of the freeze drying as well, that looks awesome!
G’day from Australia mate.
Just found your channel, excellent stuff, keep the clips coming.
Awesome! Thank you for watching!
Excellent idea with the chile
I can’t stand the crowds either, that’s why we go to the forest, right? Haha awesome video man! Enjoyed it thoroughly!
And the “D” in DIPA stands for Double!
Thanks for the info! I’m a dummy lol, I should have know it stood for double lol.
Wow, this video was just perfect. I watched it in it's entirety. You have a absolutely gorgeous 1290! I just stumbled across your channel and wow i'm glad I did. Excited to see your other rides on the channel. Subscribed! Side note, love your Mosko Moto sticker on your helmet.. how did you get that one?
Great ride. I visited the Park in mid July 2023, on my 3mths touring trip. Not so crowded but pity many side roads and camps were still closed then.
Skål from Sweden. 🍻
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Loved it. I love your chill. Yes, I would like to learn more about making your own freeze-dried foods. Also, I am interested in how you deal with hygiene in a location like that after all day riding.
I’d love to see the freeze dried meal prep. Awesome video
Hey there, new fan out from Israel.
got a 2018 1290R, love the video, watched it all from start to finish! Amazing views and looks like a killer ride.
Makes me wanna go camping solo out here in the desert.
Awesome!
Man I really appreciate it! Good choice of bike, I LOVE my ktm. It’s a wonderful machine. Thanks for watching!
Hi Yonathan, it is my dream to do a large trip from the Netherlands to Israel. Staying there for 2 weeks and exploring your country. This year i only have 10 weeks free time. Not enough. It could be done but then i would not have the relaxing fun i need to have. And the safety also is a bit of my concern i think.
Getting to Israel has its riscs. What do you think about riding solo for two weeks in Israel ? Would you recommend that or is your advice to not do that ?
Greetings from the Netherlands,
Great video ❤
Cool video, looks like you found a nice spot to camp too. I subscribed and looking forward to more Moto camping videos in the future 👍
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Never had any luck with my beer. They always exploded while bumping around.
Nice vid you made. Last year sold my 1190R. Been traveling with it for more 150000 km'ters. It became to heavy for me to lift it up after twice or three times crashing in a short time. But i miss 'em dearly. Now i own a Husq 901. Not even done 600 km'ters in 4 months. But it is winter in the Netherlands and all the roads are full of salt. Maybe somewhere around March again.
But i do not complain. Have to do some changes on the bike. Make it ready for 12 weeks Turkey and Iran. Not 100 percent sure about Iran. When it is not possible i will be heading into Armenia. Also beautifull nature with a lot of old churches that are ruins now.
You have a nice softbag setup. Put already the luggageracks on mine for the H&B Explorer cases i had laying around over 5 years.
The 1190 came with Touratech cases. Awfull stuf btw.
Still not decided what to do. The alu cases or going for the Kriega OS system. But probably i will be ordering those Kriega's.
What brand are those bags you have ? It looks like a very sturdy tankbag. With enough space. The tankbag is still something i have not worked out. Not so many options for the Norden 901 because of the shape. But i need a spacy tankbag. For me that always has been a must when going on a 10000 km trip or more.
Btw, on the left side of my bike at the inside of the pannierrack i created a mountingplace for a one gallon Ortlieb cannister. Had two laying around for 20 years. That spare fuell saved my ass so many times. I really could recommend you to do somethink like that. One gallon can save you a walk of 50 km'ters. And you do not have it filled up all the time. Back home i put some special 4T gasoline in it. That is for the lawnmower. Cause that gasoline never goes bad. And i also use that for the gasoline burner when the bottle gets empty. That fuell burns with less toxic stuff.
I really envy your beautifull bike. I miss the brute power of it but i had to go a step down in favor for some weightloss. Want to go into terrain where the weight of such a machine can be the difference between getting badly hurt or just able to make it. I only had two choices. The 890R or the Norden 901. And the Norden for me almost ticked all the right boxes. The low center of gravity is heaven. When i think about it i can not hardly wait to get out and bring the hammock along. I will be spending 2 weeks in the backcountry of Turkey. Starting 3 May. While hoping for low temps once i get there.
Thanks for your video. I hope you will make many more and also stay safe when being outthere. 👍👍💪💪
Greetings from the Netherlands,
37:53 that is some proper ååååhhh 😂🔥👏🏻 great mate
Brand new sub,great video loved it. My preference is moto camping but a close second is truck camping. Thank so much!
nice video. thank you for sharing us a nice place.
Thank you!
good video . 🎉
Great vid!
Thank you! And thanks for watching.
Makes me want to get another bike! Been eying a couple now that I’m done with buying a house. Oh, keep doing both style videos with the bike and truck…great pairing
Thanks for the feedback! I definitely enjoy both types of camping, but moto camping always feels a bit more raw if that makes sense. Less extra gear, more hard work. Thanks for watching!
Looked like a great camp. My 1090 is waiting on valve cover gaskets after the 18K adjustment. Can't wait to get back out.
I’m getting close to my valve adjustment as well! Thinking I’ll tackle it myself and make a video on it. Love me some Motocamping!
Hell Yeah on the "adventure meal prep"
Good to hear! Hopefully I’ll be able to get something out on that soon.
That breakfast looked interesting
New filipino subscriber brader man!
Great Video brother. God bless...❤ From Cenrral Europe.... I do this as much as I can. Wing Man of the Road Tent....is my tip....40 trips or more I will never use anouther motorcycle tent....look them up....❤❤
Next time try Echo Lake. It’s just near by Lake Almanor. It’s very primitive, but has 6 or 7 campsites. The lake is about the size of an inside baseball diamond. Have caught a few trout. It’s bumped up right against Lassen Park.
Yes, I would like directions on how that dried chili was made... also 'd' = double IPA. You didn't film having that Torpedo. If you are used to Coors that would have been a shock. That stuff is SOOOO hoppy it gives me a belly ache. 😣 Great vid - watched first 2 IDBDR's - are more out?
the chilly looked good. ya some cooking stuff would be good I think.
I like this you video
awesome ride, loved the video, you gained a sub! Would love to see how you do freeze dried meals, i've heard of dehyradated but nto freeze dried.
Beautyfull
Beautiful - and very well edited. Can you send me some of you MIL's chili, please? Excellent video - wish I could join you!
I’d like to see the meal preparation you folks do.
Be sure to show the dehydrator you use and where to buy one please.
You might consider a portable electric bear fence when predators abound. A compact 2.4 lbs for huge peace of mind.
Thanks for the suggestion. I generally keep some form of bear deterrent near/on me at all times. Thanks for watching!
Great vid! What boots are you rocking? Looks like Alpinestars. Would you recommend them?
Cool video I tried to go to the park in late May and early June on my trip fm Florida park was closed to remove fire aftermath.
Yeah the fire was pretty extensive in the park. That’s a long way from Florida, sounds like a fun trip! Thanks for watching
Hey man, loved the video, hard to make a long format video that isn't just boring and hard to watch. You absolutely kill the long videos! Gladly watch every minute. Just curious what the brand/model of that little black camp table you use is?
Man that’s a huge compliment! I really appreciate the kind words. The table is a “Rock Cloud Beach Table” from Amazon. Thanks for watching!
Great video! I’d love the recipe for that chilli. It made my mouth water. Haha!
Thanks! I’ll be making a video soon with the dehydrated meals and recipes. Thanks for watching!
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad excellent! Look forward to seeing that. Cheers and thanks again
I just installed my M Moto Woodland 35L today, with 4 pockets. I have a top box and also the 40L duffle. Im thinking about the tank bag like you'rs...but not sure it holds that much but the bigger issue, not sure about the straps aspect to that tank bag. Hmm. I need a moto camping tent and know others that have that Mamut tent like yours. I'm using GoPros but mostly now the Insta360 X3. So easy, so much coverage and way way more dependable ..way easier to edit and make videos...like night and day compared to GoPros. A drone down the road would be cool too! Do you use a Power Distribution Unit/module on your bike? I got the Thunderbox and installing soon. Great vids. Thx
Great video! And for such a long one it didn’t seem like it! Keep the motorcycle videos coming, however my opinion may be biased towards 2 wheels lol
Thanks for the feedback! I love both forms of camping, but the next few videos will probably be all motocamping trips. Headed out on the Idaho BDR in a few weeks.
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad only a couple weeks until a couple bug trips myself. I may attempt to film them lol looking forward to watching yours!
would enjoy to see more on the dehydrated meal prep. Thanks
Copy that! I’ll try and get something out soon.
@@EpicAdventuresOffroadsoon??
That was great, I got to go camping in an hour and I didn't even get dirty.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
I see you got the Dango Wallet!
Absolutely! Great wallet!
EAO was watching a bike video and your channel was setting looking at me so I went along for the ride. I enjoyed it! Subed... Il be back to see what your up too ! Be safe in them Backroads alone.. Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels
Thanks for the sub! Appreciate you!
I think I might need that chili recipe from the mother in law!
I’ll try to get something together to share with everyone.
Enjoyed your video, I have been on a few roads on your route, I am pretty new to the area and live in Chico , ride 2022 BMW R1250 gs. Looking to meet people for riding BDT,BDR for dirt and camping. Let me know if interested again well done on the video and route.
Nice camping site in the middle of the forest, how do you prepare in the event you run in to a mountain lion or a bear?
@Epic Adventures Offroad Hey dude, what front fender and high crash bars are you using? I Have the Tusk high front fender kit and im looking to buy upper crash bars that wont interfere with the high front fender.
What make are your hand guards? And also what year is your bike? I have a 2023 KTM super adventure. Just wondering if the would fit on her. Cheers
You moved out of the Bay Area? Can’t blame you. I’ll watch your Truck excursions but I’m in it for the Adventure Bike vids as that’s what I just started doing.
We did, tired of the nonsense out there. Glad you’re enjoying the motocamping content. I’ll be getting a lot more of that content throughout the summer months, then when it gets cold again, I’ll probably start doing more truck camping. We’ll see how it all works out. Thanks again for watching!
What an amazing place! By the way which riding pants are those? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching. I think they are the Klim Switchback? I’d have to look it up, but I think that’s correct.
Get in touch if you want to ride in Colorado! I like Coors too! KTM 890 Adventure R!
Great Video. I live just out of Sacramento and would like to do this run. Do you consider this an entry level or beginer trail for someone with a lightweight ADV bike?
Absolutely beginner friendly! Easy route that has a bunch of fun scenery. Highly recommended! Thanks for watching!
Great video man! thanks! Hey what drone are you using?
Thanks! It’s a DJI Air 2s. Thanks for watching!
Let's see preparing a dehydrated meal video
What is your bike and what brand and model are the panniers?
Yes show us how to make chili
Nice Deer @36:50
Good eye! She didn’t seem to care that was there. Drove right by her on the way in.
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad Ain't that what is all about Brother! nothing but pictures and footprints!
@@jameswinchester1179 absolutely!
Good eye!
I would very much like to see how it's done
What foldable table is that?
What side bags are you running? Would you recommend them? They look nice. I have the stock hard panniers on my '16 1190 and am interested in the soft bags like yours...
I’m running the Mosko Moto Backcountry Panniers. They’re awesome. You can find a video of the whole setup in my KTM 1290 playlist on here. I did a review of the luggage a while back. The bags are pretty pricey, but I highly recommend them. Amazing build quality.
Is that an antenna on the right side of the handlebars?
how many go-pro batteries do you carry, and is it possible to recharge them while you're out there?
Beautiful area to explore.
Looks ok Ike a camera of some sort on the right side
It’s a Insta360 Camera. Unfortunately due to a faulty SD card reader, I lost all of the footage from that camera. Huge bummer, but the trip still worked out ok with just the go pro and my Sony. I have 6 batteries that I keep in rotation for my trips. I have a 4 bank charger in the tank bag that I rotate batteries in/out of to keep them all charged. Works pretty good, but I still have issues with not knowing when the battery has died on the camera. I need a better system for that. Thanks for watching!
Sir, July 4th is better known as our Independence Day
What exactly makes you think I don’t know that? lol
I’ve got the same panniers, same sleeping bag, 1P bike packing tent, same pillow, regular pad but there is no way in hell I can get all my camp gear into it?
Yes show us the meals
What kind of pants are you’re wearing and yes I’d like to some meal prep.
"It takes a lot of work to get it in there. That's what she said" 36:01 🤣🤣 ...Giggidy.
Glad someone appreciates my childish humor! 😂 thanks for watching!
Hey man, ever travel north and go through the Idaho BDR?
Not yet! That’s on the list for later this month though! 🤙
I love the stove - what is it?
Its just a regular Jet Boil. Nothing super special, but it works well for me!
So no plan for fuel, or a place to stay in California on Fourth of July weekend???
So you skipped through the video and didn’t watch everything I take it?
Wow, I m in India, I like your video, the reason is , your r not eat non veg in camping.
What drone do you use? I really need to get something small I can pack in my 1290
Also I’d be interested in the adventure meal prep video. Sounds pretty neat
I’m using the Air D2s. It’s honestly worked out really good for motocamping. Super compact, and awesome range. Thanks for watching! And thanks for the feedback on the adventure meals.
Yeah I agree. I want to know how to make some dehydrated chili!
💕❣️💖♥️😇✨💗❤️⭐
Which sleeping bag and pad did you say you have??
It’s a Nemo forte 20 degree bag.
What brand boots are you wearing?
Those are alpinestars tech 10s
I’m in the North Bay - if you ever pull other a subscriber ride, love to join
What kind of pants are those? Thanks!
Those are the Klim Switchback pants. I really like them.
What app use to navigate/gps?
Gaia GPS, and OnX Off-road.
What tent is that?
It’s the marmot catalyst 2 person tent.
