- Join us on our atv adventure! We're riding to Silver City, Idaho. We rode about 60 miles total and hit some pretty tough, technical areas that pushed us to the limits of our capabilities. It was an adventure to remember!

Awesome Ride! Thanks For Sharing!
Those Cforce ATVs are incredible machines, especially for the money. Very underrated.
Absolutely!
That's the best riding - riding to a destination and having lunch; not within the confines of an ATV park.
Definitely! Although I’ve never been to an ATV park. Would be fun to at least try.
Ryan, Great job putting together the video. Looking forward to more great trails. Happy/Safe riding! from New Mexico!
I just discovered your channel and watched my first vidoe of yours. Great job. Enjoyed it very much. That trail you were on was amazing, it had a little bit of everything. Looking forward to catching up on the videos and following your adventure. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, beautiful area to ride in. Great video, I like how you stitched in the voiceovers giving a little more information on the area you're riding in.
Cheers from Manitoba Canada.
of the vids like this i have watched this is the best one ever. its got a proper amount of conversation and mostly the POV ride
Great video! Keep em coming and love hearing about your overland 1000. My next purchase for sure!
Thanks for the vid, throughly enjoyed it and your 'sketchy' moments! lol You've got yourself another sub.
Fantastic trail 👍🏻👍🏻
Great Content... love the trails, just subbed to your channel.
Cheers from Montana
when you mentioned the camp trailer I remembered seeing your vids awhile back I've since gotten into Dirt biking but still own my Can am enjoyed this one for sure.
What a beautiful ride! Looks like fun. 👍
It was a blast for sure!!
Beautiful dude. Ride safe. Reminds me of Reno.
This is why I bought my first atv to see amazing views like this ! Great video
I've never understood why people spend thousands jacking up a truck or jeep. While ATVs aren't as cheap today as when I bought my 1st 1 there still a better option in my opinion. Cuz my factory pick up gets 12 to 14 miles per gallon in town and 21 to 23 when the quad is loaded up an rolling down the highway. When there getting 4 in town and 7 or 8 if there lucky on the highway. Both can take you to amazing places so why pay a fortune to go to the grocery store.
Nice video. Cool thing is the varied terrain. Just bought a new to me A.C 700 an now a gopro. Gotta give this a go, if for no other reason then a good time. Awesome job..
This was a nice video to come across. A year and a half ago I had to leave Colorado, my Yamaha grizzly 700
and move to Northern California. Kind of made me feel like I was out riding on a Sunday afternoon. Thank you I truly miss being able to do that.
Man thats a bummer, but glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for commenting, definitely makes me want to make more videos.
Great watch guys, I was up there a couple weeks ago, but no snow
Nice video. Just subscribed, we ride like you do, we love doing the technical stuff on our 2up. Slow n steady. Looking forward to more videos
Thanks!
Very nice video. 👍
thanks for posting - enjoyed it- i know these vids are time consuming ;)
AWESOME country! I just love those hills and the high desert vegetation. So beautiful!
4:15 - I use a Garmin and a phone app also. The Garmin is almost indestructible, but hard to read & cumbersome to operate, so I started using BackCountry Navigator on an old Android phone. It's a GREAT app and so easy to use!
6:36 - A 2" lift will be good for clearance, but not good for stability. For the type of riding you do (same as what I do), I'd just buy a better skid plate and stay low to avoid rolling over on the tippy spots - lol
18:30 - NICE!!! I love finding old places like that. Imagine who all has been in there?
The snowy trail through the trees after the old cabin was mint buddy!! Well . . . until you hit that sketchy rock part - lol
That 360 cam is killer! Nice touch! Excellent job on the editing. I'm not a fan of music in ATV videos, but that's just a personal preference and you do a nice job of keeping it in the background. Not sure why I haven't come across your channel until now. I do a search on ATV videos quite often. Anyway, glad I found it. Keep'em comin'!
Thanks for all the positive comments, I appreciate it!
nice video. I'm planning a sxs trip from Murphy to Silver City. Looks like the town is closed now but I'm going to make the trip anyway.
man what a great ride thanks for taping it. i have ridden to silver city hundreds of time but never taken that route. i have ridden on the trail at the end when you came in from the backside but it was in summer. and yes there are some butt tightener's out there.
would love to tag along sometime haven't done any serious riding for a couple years. but my wife could not take this trail lol
Ha ha mine either!
Excellent video! Your ride epitomizes that exact reason my wife and I bought our first ever ATV a week ago! A CF Moto 800 XC. We're from N.C. but have a little property in New Mexico. We want to do just the kind of trail riding and exploration that you enjoyed here. Not into mud slinging and racing and that kind of jazz. And I think it's great that you're not some kind of "expert", "avid" rider. It let's people know that they can enjoy their hobby just the way THEY like to. Good job! Cheers!
Thanks man! It is definitely a super fun hobby!
@@RyansOutdoorLife just found your channel, subscribed! I really like this type of atv riding as well. How has that 500 c force held up for your brother? The 800 and 1000 are too large for us. The 500 looks just right
@@thatoneguy2756 The 500 is great! It was actually mine before I upgraded to the 1000. I put about 1400 (pretty hard) miles on it (2017 through 2021) and didn't have any issues. I definitely recommend it! And if you're buying new, I'd highly recommend the 2022 model, they've updated and upgraded quite a few things on it.
@@RyansOutdoorLife the new 500 hasn't been delivered anywhere yet. They just added it to the website. I kinda like the 600 but the 500 seems more reliable from what I keep seeing. I have found several of the 21 model 500s though.
Check out uwharrie national forest. Or Carolina adventure world. Pretty cool places to ride
You guys ride about twice as fast as we do. Course I'm older than you guys but I've never been into the fast riding. You see more when you slow down and it'll make your atv last longer going slower. Sure, you won't cover as many miles but you;ll enjoy the scenery more. This area looks similar to areas we ride in in Montana.
We enjoy riding fast but we also slow down when it’s appropriate. Both are fun!
Saludos desde España buen video.💪
Thanks! And hello from America!
Nice, That is where I use to ride
Good job. Will look for the trail head on a map
That's a nice place
Mantap bang
I love it. Ryan states. It’s beautiful up here. And in the next breath. It sucks up here. I love the way Ben shakes his head in the background. The camera work was really nice. It made me feel like you were the only one in the whole world riding around the globe…very cool. It’s satisfying to me to know there’s guys all around the globe. With the same appetite. We may do things a bit different. But at the end of the day that bucket list of things to do. Was granted! 🤙
Looks like a killer ride, very scenic. Looks like a nice mix of high speed and technical too, thanks for awesome video. You mentioned a 2" lift in the future, is it necessary to buy longer axles? Cautious riding keeps you from breaking parts and getting stranded too, probably sucks to have to leave a machine out in the weeds with a break down. Looks like a nice area to camp if permitted? Standing while riding lets you see further up the trail too.
I won’t need longer axles. I kept the suspension fairly soft and that helps keep the axles from being at an extreme angle.
@@RyansOutdoorLife i got a 2 in lift stock axls n they are angled quite a bit, seemed ok, but just yesterday i saw grease on my rim, cv boot was looses, unsure if joint is bad, thought maybe frm the angle....?
Just bought the Overland. Great machine so far. Went on a 64 mile run today. Very comfortable. Plenty of power for what I’m using it for.
Nice video!
Where did you find that cross bar? Be nice to have extra space for accessories.
Got it on Amazon. I love my overland!
@@RyansOutdoorLife Thanks!
I would love to have areas like this in my area, but nothing like it exists
🇸🇰❤️🤝👏👍
I really hope your CFMoto continues to work for you. The reason I say that is because I went to a dealer 2 weeks ago with a set of calipers to do a bit of a build quality comparison between CFMoto, Polaris, Can-Am, and Honda. The first thing I measured was the size of the A-arm tube stock on a CF600 and compared it to the Can-Am 450 right next to it... The A-arm on the CF was at least 40% smaller than the Can-Am 450. Then I measured the frame on the CF600... then the Can-Am 450 right next to it... then the sportsman 570 a couple down from than. That's when I stopped measuring stuff and told myself I was never going to by anything from CFMoto. There's a reason they cost less. Don't believe me? Grab a set of calipers and head to a dealership!
Well, based on my real world experience, they are absolute beasts. I put 1400 super tough miles on my CFmoto 500 (rolled it at least 5 separate times) and didn’t have one single issue with it. From my and others experience on all the groups I’m part of, they don’t seem any more prone to problems than any other brands and still cost significantly less. My experience after owning three cfmotos for 4+ years. And a total of more than 3000 miles between all of them.
Chinese crap......
If u do this on my country, u go directly to the jail.. 😢 nice video broh!
Awesome place!
How big tires do you guys have on your cfmoto's? I have 27" in my Cforce 520.
Yep, same, 27s on on the 500. In the video, I have 29s on the 1000, but now I have 30s.
Great video.. Been following your stuff now for the past 4 months.. Cool videos… I just bought a Cforce 1000.. Quick question?? What setup do you use for your gas can on your storage box?? Also what kind of helmet and goggles do you have? Thank
I use a rotopax gas can with a rotopax mount, mounted to the metal plate on top of the storage box. Thor helmet and 100% goggles.
Ryan this is a awesome trail! i ride up there alot but i havent been threw that trail. Where do you start??
You can get to it a lot of different ways. We started at Rabbit Creek.
Looks fun! What handguard/windshield combo are you using?
It comes stock on the cfmoto 1000 overland
You cracked me up with your riding & what you were saying. I’ve been riding for over 40 yrs & I guess pretty good , soo it’s hard to realize a beginner. Fun ride & cool trails & scenery for sure . No bagging on yah just funny !!
Oh I’m sure! I’ll be there one day!
sweet ride! def goin there ( if i can find a riding buddy) im far lol ur on a cfm? i was gonna get the garmin how is it for atv-ing? is onx good? which sub did u buy? hows it compared to lifetime maps? what mirrors r those, look nice and tough.
Don’t like the garmin at all. OnX is great.
Do more of these vlogs there interesting we don't have country side
Like you have it over there amazing
Do you ever do a quad camping trip
With a group of ya barbecue & dat
We haven’t done atv camping yet, but we plan to this summer!
I want to get a quad but I’m afraid I’ll roll it. Lol. Looks so sketchy when it’s leaning
how did the gas can work out mounted on top of the center storage of your 1000? I have one too and I'm trying to figure out a good place for a spare tank.
It’s fine but I don’t love it. It’s plenty strong but inconvenient for opening the box. I bought a bracket that mounts under the rear rack and will hold the can vertically behind the storage boxes. Not sure how difficult that will make it to open the box though. I haven’t mounted it yet.
What trail navigation do you use?
Great video, what camera set up do you use?
This was shot on gopro 10 and my iPhone.
What is that on the front of the king quad? Looks like a windshield type attachment ?
It’s a CFMoto 1000 overland. Comes with a handguard/windshield assembly
Great video, but you both had what u called “tippy” events. Please review you suspension settings and owners manuals. Both ATVs are set way to stiff. Ben’s driver front tire didn’t stuff into the finder as it should have to keep level. The lack of suspension travel creates tipping. It’s like driving a brick.
boy sure looks like Tiddy Springs trail is getting washed out at that split at the 3 min mark
Yeah it definitely is
Awesome ride! What camera are you using?
Thanks! GoPro 8 and my iPhone 13
What was the name of your trail app you were using for your GPS?
OnX off road. It’s been great so far!
I’m sure you told me what mirrors you are running. Also, what is the cross bar?
The mirrors were from a local dealership. I think the brand is Moose or something like that. The bar is from Amazon. Search for motorcycle balance bar.
Great video thanks. Can’t believe all the negative comments, perhaps they should buy a machine, buy a quality camera and put in the time to produce what they consider a better video. Never been to Idaho but it looks fantastic. Is that the Polaris ride command on your phone?
Thanks! Honestly, even the negative comments are good, help boost the video. 😂 I use OnX off road on my phone.
should have taken to right at the 4:45 mark that is a fun climb
Good to know! I’ve been by there a few times and have never ridden up that trail.
@@RyansOutdoorLife once you hit the ridge line head south and it will put you back near that really nice vista view you hit with the big rock outcrops. The video was cool that tail you took off war eagle into silver city is the only one I have yet to take, Been on all the others. Now I need to get back out that way this summer
That trail was great! I had never been on that one before.
Were did you get those mirrors??
Local dealer.
video would be so much better without the background music other wise awesome trails ride safe
Where did this trail start? I'd love to ride it.
We started at Rabbit Creek near Murphy.
Hi Ryan, Where in ID, NW, NE, SW, or SW? Near ? Keep Your Powder Dry Ken
SW Idaho
Have to ask …since I bought one ….How’s the Overland holding up? Any issues I should know about? So far, I have 130 miles …. BTW …I’m skittish about getting tippy. I’ve had one on top of me …suffered broken ribs etc.,…not good for on an old 66 year old dude. Enjoy your atv vids. (No obnoxious music …)
It’s been amazing! No issues at all, over 2,000 miles. Couldn’t be happier with it!
I'd love to come over and ride this route. Do you have a map you could share?
I actually do have our route saved on my onX app. But I have no idea how to share it.
Don’t know why it took so long to find ya , I have channel kind of the same
That new CFMoto is a really blatant Outlander rip off. I just cant trust any product thats over 50% cheaper than anything comparable on the market. Other than that, great video. Ill have to check this trail out and make a trip of it. I also dont think you need to use the low range and 4x4 as much as you do, not that it really matters. But sometimes you forget to take it out and it can be hard on the machine.
I’m from the area this video was made. I’ve been on all the trails shown here. It is a super fun ride but everyone needs to understand, stay out when it’s muddy. It is clay soil out in the Owyhee mountains and it ruins the trails when people ride when it is muddy. There are ares out there where people have gone off trail and ruined the area because they went to early in the season trying to avoid snow drifts , or after rain storms. If that continues the BLM is going to start closing trails because people are being irresponsible. Please respect the land and trails and don’t ride at inappropriate time and ruin it for everyone else! Side note: I’ll let it slide that these guys are riding on Can-AMs. Polaris or nothing! LOL
Probably wouldn't hurt to let some air out of your tires
For sure. We’ve also softened up the suspension on both machines since then, they were way too stiff.
Or maybe it’s not a king quad?
Bad camera angle when riding. More of the foreground ahead, less of the deck of your bike.
Would of been a really excellent video Without the music!!
Overdubbed music ruins videos, stopped watching. The machines make their own music.
Generic western music sucks
Yes. Muzak usage is a slippery slope
Oh darn.
Boo hoo
I agree, i hate those royalty free tracks so much. Everyone uses the same 10 songs too.
Nice vid man..but the musik. Hell no broh
Beautiful area. Enjoyed the video as long as I could until the horrible music forced me to stop. Couldn't take it any more. No music is always better.
Everybody has different opinions, impossible to please everyone. Personally, I like the music that’s why I put it in.
Less music pls
Súper Awesome video outstanding But the music is so annoying. Something 🎼 more mellow so annoying music from a 70’s porn movie
Lol, noted 😂
@@RyansOutdoorLife but your video is super awesome absolutely awesome I really enjoy it I watched twice and I share it to my two friends who rides with me in Utah. The music is only annoying at the beginning of the video than you put better more enjoyable music that we can hear the engines and talking and so relax music that goes with the beautiful Ecenary
Thanks, I appreciate it! I've gotten a lot of feedback about the music. Next big ride we do, I'm gonna go with minimal music, or none at all.
@@RyansOutdoorLife most people that we watch this videos we are kind of old and like to relax enjoying the scenery and the conversation the mellow music is awesome to joy the video . There is lots of videos of TH-camrs about side x sides and motorcycles cars many things and think that haven’t the loudest annoying music like we all are 17 . I just skipped or mute the video. Your videos are absolutely awesome
I would subscribe if you get rid of the stupid background music, destroys the videos, had to stop watching.
These guys are complete goobers
🤔
I subscribed to your channel because I love off roading and Idaho, but you’re on probation. The camera work is passable but you need to quit being such sissies. If you don’t man up I’ll have to insist that you shave off the beards.🤷🏻♂️
