Awesome, we had people asking what bike that was! We included a credit link in the description for viewers to subscribe to your channel. Excellent footage!
Rode the DeSoto National Forest Route on Sunday. Hwy 26 is in excellent condition between I-59 and Wiggins, MS. HWY 29 is in very good condition all the way to New Augusta, MS.
On a dual sport/adventure bike, riding under the hwy 26 Pascagoula River bridge is a beautiful adventure in cypress filled scenery with views of the river from it's banks. Nearby, just off Hwy 57, a short ride on a Forest Service road takes you to a short hike to the biggest magnolia in Mississippi.
I had to subscribe because as a lifelong motorcyclist now 73, I've ridden all over the Us and England and your advise is spot on! I was a National Forest volunteer in Desoto Ntl Forest for a couple of decades maintaining off road motorcycle trail. The forest contains some fun off road as well as dual sport and nice paved roads.
Stumbled on this one by accident...Very well done guys! I am a native Mississippian, from the Mississippi Delta, but transitioned to the west coast (and now the Pacific NW). I have travelled most of these roads by vehicle and a few by motorcycle. My favorites: The Natchez Trace Parkway and the roads around Port Gibson! Fun fact: Port Gibson was spared during the civil war by none other than Gen. Grant, during the Vicksburg Campaign...He said that it was too beautiful to destroy. If you look around town, there is an old church with a cannon ball still stuck in the wood siding! The Natchez Trace PKWY is a quiet, peaceful route; no commercial truck traffic allowed, with easy access to all of the local towns along the route. The low speed limits on the PKWY are enforced, so take your time and enjoy the serenity and the history. I really enjoyed this vid, as it hit close to home for me. Thanks for making this one!
I was surprised you did not include Scenic Route 333 around the Sardis Lake area. It's nice in the fall especially. I've been on a couple that's made your list, on the US90 coastal run, you ought include the Cruising the Coast festival every first two weeks of October. I took 587 and didn't even realize it, but there are many twisties n curves along hwy 43 n 44 in that same neighborhood. In the Jackson Brandon area ppl talk about Shiloh Road. It too connects to Hwy 43. I personally don't think much of the riding ventures in Mississippi when compared to Deals Gap in NC-TN and Twisted Sisters in Texas, but your day is what you make it wherever you're at.
Beautiful ! I just came across your channel and I'm happy to support you and other fellow motovloggers. Keep up the great work and ride safe out there ...
What about US Hwy 61? This is known as one of the most beautiful rides in the country. Also known as the Mississippi River Road and the Blues Highway itt is well known.
Recently I started at Hellfighters Motorcycle shop in Laurel, Ms, and took Hwy 15 South all the way to Biloxi. Great ride, a little longer, and Hellfighters Motorcycle shop is a great place to start. (grab a PDI hamburger before you start. You won't be disappointed)
If you go west on Hwy 90 from Bay St Louis it becomes a 2 lane before you get to La. It goes through wooded land and across bayous. Once in La it goes between Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Catherine all the way into New Orleans. Interesting ride

Awesome thanks for the comment!

Thank you for the feedback. My fiancee is from England, I want to do some riding up there and through Scotland for sure...on my bucket list!

Nice, thanks for the recommendations! We want to add a few more routes to our Mississippi page so we will check those out for sure

Thank you sir!
Hwy 587 aka Tail of the Possum (we don't have dragons in Mississippi). Stop in at Kats Grocery in Morgantown for some great food.
Thanks for the recommendation! We do have that route on our website

will have to check that route out, thanks!
What is the bike at 6:09?
That motorcycle is a 1946 Indian Chief!
That’s me riding my 1946 Indian. I live here on the Gulf Coast and ride Hwy 90 along with many of our great roads here in Mississippi.
@@garybarker9934 what a cool bike

Good info thanks for the comment!
Good shop, bought my 2nd bike there. And Hwy 15 south from Laurel is a really nice ride, especially since repaving it in sections.
The PDI number 5 cheeseburger is the best there is!
I rode 587 due to being lost,LOL. It is a nice secluded ride. Gas up 1st .
Great job on these videos, looking forward for upcoming state rides
We are working on more, thanks for the feedback!
Great website with information needed to select a route. I will use this site for all future rides across the US.
Thanks for the comment!
Love these vids!
Thanks for the comment!
no louisiana?
Hopefully a Louisiana video soon!
I did the MS gulf coast ride yesterday ! from bay st. louis just past pascagoula
Awesome, thanks for the comment!

@@rickhenderson13 that Louisiana section you're talking about is the Chef Mentuer portion. Let's not forget the Rigolets-Fort Pike area.
What's the point of driving a motorcycle at 100 kilometers per hour? We don't have limits in Europe.
