Goodbye NSW!! Moto Adventure on Barry Way & McKillops Bridge | #42 | Australia's Most Dangerous Rd?

- Today we rode the famous Barry Way and McKillops Road through the Australian Alps from New South Wales to Victoria. McKillops Road is known as one of Australia's most 'hazardous and dangerous drives'. It's a narrow dirt road with steep drop offs down to the Snowy River Valley below, it wasn't as dangerous as we were expecting based on the reputation but we were extra careful to stay away from the edges!
It was an amazing day of riding in hot weather with beautiful views all along Barry Way and McKillops Road. We stopped for a bite to eat at the camp ground next to the stunning McKillops Bridge. The only accident was Jason dropping his bike (twice!) while parking to get a photo in front of the bridge.
We finished the day in Orbost Victoria, completely buggered and very happy after a great day of adventure riding :)

I took that ride with you both. It was most entertaining and even included the local wildlife. Those views were amazing. Thank goodness the rain stayed away. Enjoy Victoria, and have a well-deserved rest. Stay safe and well 👍❤️🙂
Thanks mum! We love having you guys on the ride with us ❤️ And sorry for the occasional colourful language 😁
Great video Tina and Jason really Enjoyed it, your videos and sound just keep Getting Better and Better, The scenery Looks Great I will have Get down that way in the very near future Take care God Bless You Both 😊😊😊
Thanks Brian! You'll love it down there it's a beautiful part of the country, just be careful on that track! Cheers 😊
Well thats definitely another road I have to include on my completion of the trip....The weather was Kind to you both.....and nice gentle drop Jason, I did a few of those as well with no damage. Again great editing Tina and I love the commentary. Keepem coming you two 🙂
The gentle drops are sometimes the most stressful because you see it happening in slow motion but can't do anything about it 😳😂 We look forward to hearing more about the next adventure, I think you'll enjoy that track it's nice firm dirt road the whole way 👍 Cheers Mark! 🙂
I can’t believe I missed this road! Still loving every ep guys 🤙🏻
Cheers mate! You'll have to dust Karen off and come back up for a visit some time 😀
Gnarly bit of road going down aye, we were there last Sunday but coming up....
Yeah it sure is. Hope you enjoyed the ride :-)
I so love the NSW/Victorian high country and have ridden much of it, but not the Barry Way as yet. So good to see it here. Keep up the great story. Personally I'd prefer to have manoeuvreing space between luggage and self in case of tricky terrain.
Thanks Chris! It's a beautiful part of the country, we love the changing scenery in the mountains. Tina prefers the space too, I like the extra cushion to lean back on :)
Another great video! Really enjoyed the adventure you guys doing at the moment. Have you thought to do a run down on gears you bring along with you?
Thanks Zhu that's great to hear! Yes we've thought about it but haven't found the time to put a gear video together. We'll try to put a blog post on our website covering the gear soon. Cheers!
Wow! You got an easy ride through the Barry. The worst part of it, is the hoons in their 4WD" and the locals, coming towards you.. They make little allowance for other road users. I've ridden that road 3 times, all with very close excapes!
Ah that makes sense that's why it's one of Australia's most dangerous roads, because the road itself was quite good! Glad to know we caught it on a good day, maybe because it wasn't on a weekend, plus the border situation was still a bit iffy at the time. Cheers mate!
Agree, I've been up and down Barry Way a few times and it is the other road users that create the danger be they cars or 'adventure bikes'. Only recently found the channel, entertaining video, will watch others. Best wishes.
Great video guys ride safe
Thanks mate! I know you're familiar with that stretch of road 👍
Very nice balanced video. Glad to see I'm not the only one who have trouble getting the Himalayan up on the center stand. What drone are you flying now.
Haha you're definitely not alone there, it's great having the center stand but sometimes it's a two man job, especially when fully loaded. We've still got the same drone (he survived 🙂) it's a DJI Mavic Air 2. Cheers Michael!
12:00 Daaaamn boy, he's thick!
😂😂
Question how much did you pick the bikes up for ,these enfeilds just keep chugging along, jimmy WA
Hi Jimmy, we got them for $7500 each brand new back in 2020. Pretty good value if you ask me. And they’re still going strong 💪
Are you actually riding around Australia…? Or just random bits of it.?
All the way around, through lots of random places 🙂
Another great video but Dad said you have to stop playing dodgems i jope Todge wasnt damaged
4:53
Thanks mum ❤️ Roger was fine thankfully, and we're always extra careful that's why the bikes don't have a scratch on them! 😂
