    There are a lot of channels that offer great motorcycle content, but your videos are consistently awesome. The motorcycle riding footage and landscapes in your videos are always interesting, but what really separates your videos from the other videos are the introductions with the history and background of the subject you are going to cover in the video. I always feel like I learned something after watching your videos. Ride safely and keep producing these great videos.

    Dude! Longish term subscriber. I watch a lot of these types of channels. They all offer a unique point of difference. Yours stands out for overall quality. The cinematography, story telling, music and informative narration is second to none. For a kid that sells bikes for a living you could easily find a successful career in Hollywood. Keep going man. Love this channel.

    I live in the Black Hills. I have been enjoying this series. Belle Fourche is pronounced Belle Fooche.
    BTW...the geographic center of the US is in Belle Fourche, SD. IMHO...it is worth a stop.

    In a big picture sort of view, when you look at a map of the US and then zoom in on South Dakota and then zoom in again on the Black Hills region it's amazing just how small the area really is. When you consider how much natural beauty is packed into such a small space (relatively speaking) it's mid blowing. It's one of the most awe inspiring area's in the country.

  • @just_another_Joe

    Awesome video as always!
    My wife and I rode up to Devil’s Tower the Friday before Labor Day weekend last year (first time there for both of us) and went up to the upper parking lot in the late afternoon/early evening. Lots of space… wasn’t crowded. Then we went and got a motel room in Hulett. The next morning, we got up early and went back to the upper parking lot at Devil’s Tower before about 8:30 and again had no problem parking. We went for a hike up to the base… it was bigger than life. Definitely a bucket-list item. After hiking, we got back to the parking lot and - holy cow - it was jam-packed! We rode back down and lower down the road, the rangers were metering traffic through. The line behind there went on forever. Then we almost got to the exit and ran into a line to the exit that was several hundred yards long. They were collecting park fees upon exit instead of upon entrance. Fortunately, near where that line started, a ranger was directing traffic. I showed my military park pass and she directed me down the shoulder to pass the entire line. Good fortune indeed.
    The moral of the story is that if you visit a place like that during a summer weekend (particularly a holiday weekend), go as early as you can and beat the rush. The same thing applied to other places like that we’d ridden to. We rode to Mount Rushmore this past Labor Day and it was the exact same thing. Good thing we got there early. 👍🏻

    I haven't watched all of this video yet but had to stop when you were mapping out the ride toward the beginning; to my understanding Belle Fourche is pronounced Bell-Foosh. Well, at least by my parents. I was born in Spearfish but moved away at the age of five so am no local.

    If you want to see biker bars and beautiful twisty country roads all in one, come check out the driftless area of Wisconsin.
    Beautiful riding.
    I've traveled a fair share and Wisconsin has easily the most amount of bikes on the road daily from May to October. It always amazes me the lack of motorcycles I see when on vacation in areas that I could ride 90% of the year.....
    Safe travels
