Your use of drone work, multiple camera angles and transitions between is flawless. Absolutely love it. Also, perfect way to summarise the feeling of an adventure ride like this. Awesome work!
Beautiful video! Incredible skills on those riding two-up! For the rest, I again thought, "Why aren't they standing for greatly improved control? " Then I remembered the best response I've heard for that question, "My dear friend, at my skill level, falling is inevitable. Why on earth would I want to double the distance?" Such a witty retort deserves to remain unanswered 😁
Wow, epic ride Brent, I've been looking at this one for a while to do on the Africa Twin in the coming weeks. Will avoid the muddy hill but the 20 Creeks looks stunning. Outstanding video once again mate, just love it!
Hey Brent just started watching your adventures and can't help but notice that on the Nundle run how many people were getting into trouble by not standing up in tricky situations. As a long time dirt rider I can assure you this makes a huge difference to bike control. Thanks for all the 701 info. Cheers Steve
Brent, I think this is one of your best! Great footage, great editing, beautiful color and your story telling really had me along for the ride. Well done, I know you put a great deal of time into these videos and it shows. Your contribution to the Adventure Rider World is greatly appreciated. It's quite something to think that you are in your summer so I'd hate to see some of those water crossings in the winter. Keep it brother! Big Thanks from Canada, now we just need to get rid of some of our snow.
Hi James, thanks for your comments... Yes, I think my videos are getting better and better.... I learn lots from each one. I'm glad you are enjoying them, and at least now the worst of Winter is behind you... hopefully your days are getting lighter and warmer... won't be long before you are out on the trails again.
Love your videos. I look forward to them, especially these longer adventure rides. It’s great that camaraderie from riding in a group of like minded friends.
Love the way you make us sit forward in the chair with the intro. Your video editing and story telling is so damn good. Holy hell I enjoyed this A LOT! 🇳🇴🎥 So much to learn from you mate. It is insane to see how slippery the hill was. If you have never ridden in such terrain it is hard to understand how it is possible to be so intense. Keep on adventuring mate, this was a breath of fresh air. Thank you. All the best from Norway 🍻
Thanks tshansen... glad you enjoyed watching it half as much as I enjoyed making it. Yeah Mud sure makes life interesting on a bike. Enjoy Norway... lovely country and people.
WOW….Such a brilliant video, well done. Takes me back to the ‘70’s. We used to call it Trail Riding. We used small capacity 125/175/250 Japanese Trail bikes, which were great fun and so easy to pick up and push if you had those inevitable ‘moments’. The Africa Twin looks like a good road bike 😉. Subscribed, keep ‘em coming !
One of 5he best video and commentary I have seen, well done, putting on my list to do and congrats to all rider particularly to the two up 10 out of 10
Another really great ride and story well told Brent, thanks! We were out west on a trip over the Christmas New Year period and most everywhere was lush and green. The rains have realy worked their magic!
Awesome video Brent! Watched it on the big screen and binged some other videos of yours I had been saving up. Great riding with you and your group on the second half. I didn't get to buy you that beer but hopefully see you out on the trails again. Cheers
Impeccably crafted work , Brent. You evoke the essence of adventure riding in all your videos (I’ve been bingeing on your collection over the last week), as well as the huge potential that your country offers in this respect... This from an old-school thumperite who has been exploring the backcountry desert and mountain scapes of Southern Africa over the last 50 years...
Thanks Ruffian for your note. You have some great riding in South Africa.... I've only done some 4wd touring through Namibia, but it is a beautiful continent you live in.
Wow! What a great video. I've done dirt, street and hard enduro. My next ride will be Adventure. You did a great job with narrating and all of the video. Thanks for posting.
Just found your channel, absolutely incredible riding country and brilliant videography and drone work… absolutely seamless!! Got my mind made up now on a 701 after owning a GS800 a couple of years ago, loved that bike but a bit of a handful on technical stuff. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks Peter You will love the 701. It is my Unicorn bike and suits me perfectly. There is quite a bit of content on my channel about the 701. If you haven't seen my Flinders Ranges series, that is a good one as it is the first really long distance trip I did on the 701 (solo camping). th-cam.com/play/PLT32jLKJaV8McL1KmkNZCG0brXFG3_L6Q.html
Brent, hello mate. Just watched Nundle & loved it. Lovely drone work & excellent footage with clear narrative.well done you & glad you all had a top time. Lol @ poor pillion in the drink. Tell her she's a legend !! Will watch episode a few times . Cheers Pete (63 yr old & still getting dirty).👌👌
Glad to hear that you are 63 and still getting dirty. I ran into a guy from Tasmania who was > 70 years old and still riding pretty tough terrain on his KTM690.
Waaaaaah thank you so much for taking me on an epic trip down memory lane! 😁🙏 I loved that 20 rivers ride from Nundle to Moonan Flat which for me, was a real challenge on my lil Honda CRF250L fully loaded up. I’ll never forget the rain, beautiful scenery & the challenge. Just EPIC! Thank you for sharing with the amazing cinematic editing that took me right back there again. Carry on! 😜👍🏁🏍💨
Thanks Roz... hey funnily enough I was just watching one of your old videos of the Flinders... I'm going to go there in April for a 9day trip. Any particular recommendations or "must do's" while in the Flinders?
@@brentbat oh you lucky bugger! 😂🙏 Absolutely loved Flinders & did it twice. Brachina Gorge Road, Bunyeroo Road, Glass Gorge Scenic Road, Chambers Gorge…all fantastic ‘must do’ dirt roads. I found a lot of ‘no access’ roads throughout Flinders but I’m sure you’ll find some off the beaten tracks! 😂👍 Though there were quite a few peeps in Wilpena Pound, I still loved it as I did a stack of walks including the thigh destroying Mount Ohlssen Bagge! 🥵😫😂👍 Willow Springs was a top spot to camp & they had their own trails/tour through their private property which I hear is awesome but I loved free ranging, so didn’t do it. Arkaroola was great food & drinks…quite flash considering…and then Mark & I left from there through Gammon Ranges up through Mount Hopeless to Strzelecki and into Cameron Corner via Merty Merty. Just loved every second of it and hanging to go back again! The most breathtaking spectacular view though was on Bunyeroo Road at the Razorback Lookout. Breathtaking & imprinted in my retinas & heart forever. I can’t wait to see your journey with your wicked editing & stunning drone views. I’m jealous & wish I could escape this Alcatraz state to get back on another huge adventure. Enjoy mate…carry on! 😁👍🏁🏍💨
Another AWESOME one Brent! Thank you. I'm looking out of my window here in the northeast USA at freezing rain/snow but your video brought a smile to my face.
Hey Henry, I used to live in Boston, so I totally get you. The Winters are tough... We are lucky here, we can ride all year around. Hopefully our adventures give you something to look forward to when things warm up. I'm riding Colorado BDR, Utah and Arizona this year... Can't wait.
Hi Brent, I came across your vid through my FB and thoroughly enjoyed the story telling. An amazing experience, with a great group of riders. Any adventure rider will absolutely understand your sentiments of feeling free and in the moment whilst driving through the Gloucester or such beautiful scenery. The cinematic capture of this trip is extraordinary as you get sucked into the experience. I truely enjoyed being taken along on this journey.
Great video. Loved the drone shots as wel. That drone follow tech seems to be working quite well. Can’t wait for winter to be over and start riding again. 👍🏻
I really enjoyed your riding videos of trips. I wish one day I will do a ride with you guys. Its a great honor to me. Bundle of thanks for sharing your experience with everyone.
Hi Brent, I really look forward to watching your videos and as usual this one did not disappoint. Your perspective, your narration and your different use of cameras on the bikes, person and in the air make you feel like your on the tourney with you and your fellow riders. I look forward to the next journey you share. Keep up the great inspiring, vision. Love it! I’d love to tag along one day. Cheers Pete
I had a lot of fun watching it. Just be careful, you're getting closer to a place where you can no longer get better :) I got to experience a bit of mud riding with the 701 and even though I didn't fall I hated every moment. I prefer water crossing at any given moment. great video! totally 10.
Hey Dror, thanks for your comment. I can always improve and get better :-), Yeah riding mud is kinda crazy... often it is not much fun at the time, but put's a smile on your face as you recount it afterwards with your friends. Water crossings are fun as long as you don't drown your bike (I've drowned mine once).... If you are doing water crossings, make sure you buy the special spark plug removal tool and keep it on your bike... otherwise there is no way to get the spark plugs out and de-drown it.
Wonderful ride , been planning same route for ages but doing it in the next couple of months time . Great cinematography and drone footage you must be happy with the way it turned out 👍
As a newbie to adventure motorbike ridding this area I'd love to see one day when I have some skills what better and more beautiful place is there to explore.
Great work as usual. I did this route years ago on the APC tour but unfortunately have lost it since. You wouldnt have the coordinates for the gate at the start of the shitty hill by any chance. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Hands down, considering your resources, that would be one of the best put together vids I've seen. That was a class act Brent. I guessed you were using a Skydio for I know of no other drone small enough capable. Man how it changes the dynamics of your video. I wonder how much combined effort your fellow riders gave you so you didn't fall behind while operating gopro's and changing batterises etc. I could see you busily checking your controller, you did well. Obviously it was to their benefits to cooperate with you and be part of the end result. I have been communicating with Sphere in Sydney re how to obtain a +2 Skydio and talks are ongoing. Would love to know how you acquired it. Have you made other videos? Subscribed
Hey Kiwi Adventurer. First of all, I purchased the drone in Texas (where I spend half my time for business). Yes, I've been using the Skydio for quite some time now and you'll see it playing a part in many of my adventure videos. There is no other drone that comes close for capturing adventure bike riding. When I'm riding with buddies, I am careful not to disrupt the ride too much. On this ride I think I stopped 3 times over the two days to fly the drone. Once it is up, I usually just let it follow us for about 20min and get tons of footage with each flight. I can launch and retrieve it pretty quickly now. Same with the GoPro, I usually cycle batteries whenever we stop so that I have fresh batteries in the gopro all the time. BP
Great video, fantastic camera work. It is probably too good to be inspiring 🤣 l will be riding for a month in Iceland, from middle of July to middle of August. l am ready with my GoPro and my little drone, and l can hardly wait 🙂
Wow, you will have a great adventure. I've driven around Iceland on a photography trip, but would love to do an adventure bike ride there. Enjoy the shoot... I enjoy capturing and producing the videos, and it lets me relive them after the ride is over. BP
I did this part of this ride at Christmas time this year and came off on one of the causeways ended up with a broken leg heading to moononflats I don’t regret it because the rest of the ride would have been awesome.
Sorry to hear about your broken leg. yeah, those causeways can be real slippery, I treat them with a lot of respect and generally take it real easy through them.
the causeway just south of Glen Rock station is deadly slippery if water is running over it, apparently the rescue chopper has been there a few times, just in the last 5 years.
The bike you choose very much depends on what you like to ride and where you like to ride. For this trip you can ride most bikes as it is not overly technical. For more technical riding you want lighter bikes.

Spoken by someone that knows editing👍
@@kiwiadventurer I wish I was committed enough to do this sort of thing! Takes skill and time!
HUGE respect for the 2 up couple. I might ride this alone before suggesting to my wife. She would be up for it im more worried about me.
Yes, they were very good riders. They have my respect.
Beautiful video! Incredible skills on those riding two-up! For the rest, I again thought, "Why aren't they standing for greatly improved control?

Brent - your videos are spectacular and inspire me to ride more dirt. Please keep up the good work!
Just now discovered this and subscribed because you do what you do so darn well 👍
Thanks Jai... Glad you like it. It is a labour of love.
Thanks for sharing the GPX file. An opportunity just knocked for me to pick up a bike in Sydney in March, so will be keen to ride this loop!
What beautiful riding countryside, much like ours in South Africa. Your brilliant videos are a great advert for riding off road Down Under. Well done
On a rainy Saturday afternoon I’m watching all your videos - great filming and riding.

The bike you choose very much depends on what you like to ride and where you like to ride. For this trip you can ride most bikes as it is not overly technical. For more technical riding you want lighter bikes.
