    Rte 66 is on my Bucket List. Did Sturgis in 2023.. and that was awesome. Curious what part of VT you're from.. I spent a lot time in East Corinth as a kid, and played a lot gigs as a musician in and around VT, and my daughter is currently attending Bennington College. I'm in the Boston area. Great video...

      I’m close to the Northeast Kingdom area up north. Lots of beautiful riding up here, but also what feels like 9 month of winter every year 😂
      I can’t recommend Route 66 enough. You could spend well over a month going end to end if you wanted to stop at every little attraction and roadside marker on the way. So much to see.
      I’ve got full maps on my site to help along the way 👇🏻 No gps will keep you on the route - you really got to pay attention or you’ll be off 66 and onto some new road. These maps help outline the path for you. I hope you get to do it one day!

    Awesome video, loved the way you told your story on the Mother Road. Loved the drone footage, something I need to learn how to do…
    Loved your shot outside the Indian Trading Post at the continental divide - I have the exact same shot with my 2019 Chieftain Darkhorse in 2022 😊

      Thank you man! Glad you loved the video so much. I can’t wait to share the next part with you guys - Monument Valley, Horseshoe Bend, and the Grand Canyon. The part after that was probably my favorite of the whole trip- Zion and Bryce. I want to go back to Zion and spend a week. It was spectacular.

      Already got you covered! Check the video description above, I have links to all my recording equipment right there for you. You're looking for 'Mic' & 'Mic Adapter' click on those links and that's all you need! Now that's for GoPro Hero 9 through 12 (I also have a video on my channel showing how to setup my Ruroc helmet for motovlogging, but the process is the same for whatever helmet you have. That's my current setup. I am upgrading however, to the new DJI Action 5 with the DJI mic 2, because then the microphone connection is wireless. More useful for me when filming in other situations outside my helmet, but it's a pricey setup and it may not be what you need for all the additional money.
