- Adam Riemann test rides the new 2024 KTM 500EXC from Port Douglas to Cape York with 16 other riders. Starting out through epic enduro trails in The Daintree Rainforest, the boys progress to sand tracks and dunes out to Cape Flattery. By day three, they are hammering bulldust ruts and sweeping tracks in remote scrub country, all the while crossing croc infested rivers. Just press play ...

I am currently unable to ride for a while, but watching these 45 minutes feels like its allowing me access to part of your thrill...
Feel for you tini, same situation...no worries will be back on the horse in no time...good luck with your recovery 💣
Hey lads I lost both legs in a work accident, I was back riding 3 months later i was barely out of hospital. Don’t let anything stop ya…
@@nothinyaseehere9449I lost my head a couple years back and still riding.
As an Indian, I can't help but be happy to see that in the West even people doing work like farming, plumbing, mechanics can afford to follow their passion of motorcycles. Unfortunately people doing these jobs here in India don't earn enough to follow their passion.
Great work as always. You and MAD Tv are two of my favourite motorcycle related channels.
I think brother, so far we did not have that culture of traveling far and exploring places. My own father throughout his 70 years of life did not travel beyond Maharashtra and Goa. But the current generation is awakening and the internet is giving exposure. I have seen people tour on Hero Splendors and power to them!
For everybody outside of India, Hero Splendor is Honda SuperCub based 100cc bike that Hero manufactured for Honda till few years back via their joint venture. After their split, now Hero has retained the Splendor brand.
India is one of the most magical, mysterious and adventurous countries on earth. I travelled 4500km on the Hero impulse 150cc from Dehli to Leh to Kashmir back around to Varanasi.
It does not matter what your motorcycle is, two-wheels is all you need and the ride I completed with my father through the Himalayas is one of the greatest Adventures of my life.
I love India.
Fully Inspirational content right here 💯
The crazy thing is in Europe you can't buy a bike like the Hero. You have to pay at least three times more. So yes, some people (not everyone) make quite a bit of money, but everything is very expensive and that includes motorcycle insurance, maintenance, spare parts, tires, fuel...
I totally understand what you are saying. I'm from Philippines and I cannot afford KTM bike. I have Yamaha XTZ 125cc but don't let a lower cc bike discourage you from going far places. I know I won't go out of country but my motorbike can take me far from my place. I hope you'll be able to tour in your own country. More power to you and your fellow motorcycle riders. Ride safe brother!
I'm amazed you had this ready to go straight after the warhorse series. Amazing work Adam, thank you mate
It never stops 🇦🇺✊️
Those boys 60 years plus truly inspirational all riders look highly competent brilliant…!!!
We were so inspired by these boys, we hope we are still going that strong on a bike over 60! Absolute legends.
You are truly one of the most inspiring people I have ever seen in my life. “all u need is a pair of wheels to start ur adventure” this resonates in my head every time I go for a ride
Wow the diversity of Australia is incredible. That white sand is stunning, the camera really shows how it could get you into trouble if you're not careful.
Yes, before Adam, I only thought of desert and the Uluru!
You did it again @Ariemann1!!! Managed to get a smile stuck on my face!
The Australian country is the ultimate playground, no wonder you have such great athletes and the views are amazing!
Looking forward to the 2nd part of the journey and I hope to be able to ride that country some day...
Keep up the Motology!
Mate, the best yet. 61 yrs old, sold my KDX 200 five years ago. Going to get another one. This inspired me. Many thanks, Kiwi Pete
Good to see older retired riders taking part in their dream rides...and the young ones to help us out if needed.
Just another stunning video Adam. Perfectly summing what life is all about. Passion, fun, adventure. Inspirational stuff.
I've watched and re watched enough of your videos now, where your voice narrates my day to day activities..
Love the way you narrate and describe your adventures.
Hi Adam,
As someone who is almost in their sixties (within 2 months), it still gives me hope to make the switch to enduro/off-road riding, when I see these 50s and 60s going crazy here. My compliments and respect. I have ridden guided light off-road / gravel roads with a KTM 890 Adventure 2022. And I really enjoyed it. As a small, self-employed roofer, I am always a bit wary of the possible consequences of a fall, because I like to accelerate ;-)
I envy you all because of these wonderful off-road possibilities. For us, Australia looks like one big playground for tough dads 💪
I love all your vids, awesome 👌🏻👍 Keep on riding 🤞Best Regards from Zuid-Limburg (Netherlands) 🙋♂️
Are you kidding me? You are one of the greatest storytellers I’ve ever heard please continue. there is so much of your life that I went through the same thing divorced parents partying, drinking and motorcycles and the one thing is definitely come out of. It is the motorcycles. I still love them today at 47.
your are a natural....both riding and video shooting and finish product....top of my list for watching. Thanks
Been watching your vids for years mate. The off-road/enduro scene is full of good, like minded people 👍
Absolutely.
That is epic so soon from your War Horse adventure
Impressed with everyone’s riding skills, drinking skills and most of all your overtaking skills on tight tracks
Well presented Adam and thanks again for your time and effort to bring this to our living rooms
Thanks
Dave
Production skills here are absolutely second to none!!!!
Love your channel Adam! Thanks for taking us along your journey!
Great video! I'm 55 and traded my 2012 350exc a couple years ago for a Duke 790 to give my body a rest.lol I did a lot of enduros and dual sports back in the 2000s in NJ and NY state on my 2004 450 exc. I love seeing the older guys ride, lots of respect for them. I also was a blue collar worker( road construction). Thanks for bringing back some wonderful memories. God bless you 🙏
What a ride, what a nature!!! Once everything is over I'm definitely will come from Ukraine to ride with Topenduro guys!
I just booked out the entire tour for June 5 2026 because of this video. Thanks for the intro Adam. Looking forward to it.
Those lads are so lucky to have this documentary of their trip.
It was a great watch.
Thanks
Having watched this video a few months ago, I immediately booked my tour with Top End Moto. The earliest available booking was for mid-2025 but, travelling alone, I was able to move up to May 2024 when a vacancy came up. It was an amazing experience akin to a Six Day Enduro! I made it to the tip of Cape York but my 65-year-old body took a battering.
what a feeling when you buy a couple bottles of beer after a hard working day and go home to watch another brand new Adam's video on a big screen )) especially when you at different continent in a winter time. thank you mate .. thank you!!!
Adam, the storyteller shines again. ❤ Love the great videography.
Cool i love your video’s special in Winter. Greetings from Holland/Germany
Me too !! groete uit Nederland😂😂😂
Watching this from South wales UK.. I thought we had some epic places to ride but this place is another level.. another brilliant video
Adam, as usual creating another phenomenal & riveting video for us to enjoy. Thanks for always putting in effort of fantastic videos & sharing all your experiences for us to enjoy.
You the Man Rieman. Great riding and great camera work. A very special place.
Epic landscapes and trails documented perfectly 🤘Curious how the newer 500’s are compared to the 2017’s you rode in South America. I almost bought one a few years back. Amazing work on the throttle & cameras, cheers!
Hi Adam, fantastic video. What an epic trip. “Ol mate has a bit of a situation “ in the sand cracked me up. 👍🇦🇺
Another superlative video Mr Riemann. A mate that I ride with did the same top end ride All the way back when the bikes they were using were XR400s. He now rides a KTM 500exc. They really are a do anything, go anywhere, all round weapon of a bike. I reckon I would have to become seriously bike fit to even attempt a monumental ride like this one. You guys are all legends and there's just something about the way you document your adventures which let's the viewer feel like we're right there experiencing it with you. Bloody love it. Keep em coming. Can't wait for part 2!
One word, epic. It doesn’t get any better than this. It can be different, but not better. You’re putting out some crazy stuff lately, what a change up from the war horse, I mean, wow.
Epic riding through an amazing landscape. What a place! Couldn't imagine a better bike to do it on either
Absolutely. The 500EXC just gave the journey a whole different vibe. So awesome.
Usually workout is about no pain no gain but you guys found a fun way of doing it. Proper fun to even just watch.
CREB, Flattery, Starke and thru Lakefield into Musgrave. Some of the coolest riding on the planet I reckon. Love that ant hill plain in the park. Blasted through there on my twin 2 weeks ago on the way back from a quick hit to the cape (4days up and back). Was a toasty 36 degrees. Awesome video as always.
Amazing video, really makes me want to go ride in Australia some day! Your editing is top notch, I didn't even realize it was 45 minutes long and was disappointed when it ended! 😂 Can't wait for the next episode 😉
another amazing content! thanks for your great work Adam!!
Epic ride and camaraderie! Amazed at the diverse terrain you have to tackle down under.
Breath taking 🙌🏾 … more content please …absolutely phenomenal
Love it, we're in the first day of winter in Canada and it sucks, cold windy and snow on the ground everywhere. I miss so MUCH riding my bike right now. Thank you for the vids to keep me sane !!!
Bucket list stuff! Forever the racer, always the competitor. It’s in your blood mate.
im in awe, Can wait till me and mates do something like this, those scenes never get old, from north to south, east to west, we are lucky,
Love your work. Reignited the passion for adventure and dirt bikes I had as a kid. I know it's a long shot, but I'd love to see you tour Sri Lanka. Possibly loads you can show of the country that locals will rarely see or appreciate. Either way, all the power to you to keep doing this to your heart's extent. Ride Safe!!
I've got the same bike here at home and I couldn't be happier for a dual sport and BDR weapon. Love seeing this type of terrain, epic riding indeed. It looks like I might have to book a trip to Australia to ride with Top End Moto Tours after I do the Ride With Locals in Iceland.
Riemann I’ve been waiting for another 500 video for what feels like an eternity and I’m glad to say that this was well worth the wait. I race and do big distance rides on the 500 here in South Africa, honestly mate I would kill to do a trip like this with you it’s so far up my alley it’s frightening and the fomo I’m feeling right now is inexplicable! I’ve been a massive fan of yours since 2013 and all I want to say is thanks for sharing the passion that we share so poetically with videography that’s nothing shy of extraordinary!! 🙌🏻🍻😎
Awesome story and one hell of an epic trip from the looks of it, awesome work putting this edit together.
man this looked so fun! Thanks for bringing us along
Great adventure, top memories , great organisation….not envious at all here, winter, Blighty thx all for the entertainment 💪🤜👌
What a trip! Can definitely see myself and some of the boys signing up for this adventure!
same here!
What a trip!! That looked a right, proper hoot! Coming over from Scotland next year for the British Lions Rugby Tour, Now hoping I can squeeze that in to the schedule...Truly epic. Thanks for taking us along of the ride Adam. Cheers and Beers, Michael.
Three days in and one minute of video left and I thought, Alright, were going to have a part two. Then I thought, Crap, I have to wait for part two. Really enjoy these Motology Films. Thanks.
Just awesome filming editing and voice over. Just love Adams whole Outlook and humour. And of course the man is a beast.
Wow!!! Amazing riding, video and story telling.
This was very-very enjoyable and amazingly satisfying to watch from start to finish. More of these kind of inspiring content please.

Another excellent production! Thanks for the motivation.
A true talent for making these films! Brilliant work👌👍
Just love your storytelling. What an epic tour.
Awesome, captured the essence of Cape York!
Yet more brilliant content! 👍 I’ve been lucky enough to fly over the Daintree Forest and those Silica dunes/mine on route out to Lizard Island on the Barrier Reef and that is some serious terrain to enjoy. What a fantastic trip to do, thanks for taking us along…
Just want to say, @ARiemann1 you are my inspiration and I love your story telling. Every time you post something like that, I grab a beer and watch a documentary. I love it and I love what you do for moto community. This is masterpiece, truly from my heart. Thanks mate. Much love from Georgia (country). Visit us, perfect place to explore on motorcycle
Awesome video again! Thank you!
Awesome video! Amazing scenery. Best!
I like your style. Seem like a real genuine bloke and good to be around. Keep posting the awesome videos mate
Thanks for the ride along.
Really enjoying your videos. 👍 looking forward to watching the next one.
"Ego remains intact".....lol. Love it! This trip looks amazing. As always, stellar production. Can't wait till you come to USA someday......I could keep ya busy on trails in Arizona. Keep up the good work.
Another epic session. Thank you
Absolutely Brilliant! Great commentary throughout, great skills from all riders , what an epic experience. 🇬🇧👍
Awesome mate. Wish I lived in Oz....👌
cleaning up the field from behind introducing the riders by name, are you kidding me, how epic
‘…ego remains in tact’ Haha love it mate love the authenticity 👌🏼
Well done, Adam, impressive and inspirational as always! Very much enjoy the content you put out!
What an adventure! Nicely done.
Another epic video, cheers mate!
I love the phonk, and all the other intense music you smashed it fantastic edit🦾🔥
This is the type of video that made me fall in love with your channel
Damo goes pretty well. Really lets the bike do the work.
great vid: i love love loooooooove my 500 exc, a true bikers bike
Awesome Adam love it looking forward to the next one 🙂🤙
Wow of all the tour companies I’ve seen doing cape trips this looks the the best. No accountants riding drz400 tractors and never standing up. Great trails, a snappy bike and a great group of seasoned riders.
But we have to look at the comparison between the 500 and the war horse. Half the weight, a smaller less comfortable seat but so agile. I hope it’s answered by the end of the trip, but when you sit down and plan a trip like this yourself, year you can do it cheaper, ride solo and eat 2 minute noodles each night. But paying the extra and not be on your own bike, have a support crew and have a great feed at the end of the day, the large price of these group rides seems a lot more reasonable then first thought
What a country you have! Another top film,cheers pal.
Another stellar video bud thanks for sharing
Was celebrating your successful hill climb with enthusiasm at the TV. ✊️✊️✊️
AMAZING Video, love it
wait, no Bob and Marj on the roads.....CRIKEY !!
Great vid. Beautiful lost world scenery. Lost on the white sands. Good looking native meal. Next time, stay safe have a blast
Thanks for the vid, looks like a blast
amazing scenery! great stuff! drones are so great.
That looks like an awesome riding experience. Not had any as tough as that but not far off in 🇿🇦. We have the croc’s in some of our rivers and fighting with monkeys for fruit in the trees as sustenance on a long ride.
Stoked to see the next instalment.
This looks soooo good , def on the bucket list now
Ahh Friday night sipping a wine of 2 watching yet another epically edited and narrated ARiemann1 video. Inspirational stuff!
Excellant production. thank you.
"When it hits the ground its on..." ...half way down the people send it! 🤣
Totally. Those who want the win are just ruthless ... haha
