    "...as the tides go in and out, the table is set for numerous shore birds feeding along the sandy beaches and rocky shorelines..." might be the best line from an nature video I've heard.
    Well done!!

    OMG Amanda, I didn't realize how much I missed your rain fly dance. I had tears. Miss your content. You are probably my favorite TH-cam artist.

    You are such a talent!! Your videos are so well done. Also I really respect that you’re not a show-off, and you NEVER make fun of other people. You’re a real one. Such a refreshing break from some of the toxicity coming from certain social media personalities. The biking world, and the world in general needs more women like you 🙏🏽

    I love moto camping. And my favorite part is dining after a long day of riding. Your knife skills are impressive, and your attention to detail while cooking is outstanding. Dinner is a big thing for me. Both preparing it, and eating it. I got nothing against the minimalists, but I like to treat myself. Nice job.

    The world-famous PCH. It's our back and we never get tired of it. We are currently in New Orleans while on our Roaming The USA Bikecation, and didn't realize how much we miss the west coast until watching this. LOVE this video.

    I love Avenue of the Giants. It reminds me of the forest chase scenes in Empire Strikes Back, only it's beautiful and peaceful. 😃 Trees are pretty cool.
    You probably didn't have the time, but I bet you would have enjoyed a ride out to the Lost Coast, even if you stuck to the "pavement." Anyone that's ridden Mattole Rd knows why I put pavement in quotes there.

    The woods are lovely dark and deep, but I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep

    You look absolutely radiant. Seriously. I know your camera gear is solid and that your editing is on point but you just have a glow about you. It’s probably the sea air, stunning scenery and the fact you’re on another ride. Right? Don’t we all feel wonderful on a ride?
    Thank you for taking us on another fun ride.

    Excellent episode. California coastline never gets boring. I hope I can take a trip soon up the coast from Orange County, to Crescent city and back. ✌️🇺🇸

      I grew up in the Huntington Beach area. My dad planned a bike trip the summer before the left doe USN Basic Training. We ride CA, NV, OR, and WA. Best ride next to my year pilgrimage to Rocky Mountain Roll.

    Amanda, I love your content. Can't wait to see you in August. It is my highlight of the year. Great job as always. Let us all Thank Honda for your Africa Twin. Seriously, put his video on when you are at work to bump up the views and thank Honda.

  • @BaxterTheBiker
    @BaxterTheBiker ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Been following this series closely because a friend from the UK wants to fly over and we'll ride it together! Much appreciated. Also, I could easily spend a week in the redwoods without having any further plans or additional activities.
    Keep up the good work!

  • @aimeemotorides8454
    @aimeemotorides8454 ปีที่แล้ว

    The music was very relaxing and therapeutic, along with your images. I love Amy's soup! Ha, nice choice. Thanks again for another great video. Keep up the lovely work.

  • @PaulsMotoZen

    Roads through mountains, and around lakes are always the best rides.

    • @monunyabidness5949
      @monunyabidness5949 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The roads at the bottom of the valleys in Coolorado, with rivers running adjacent to them, were among the best roads I have EVER ridden/ driven, for scenic views. Putting even Highway 1, vaunted though it may be, to shame.
      I did Highway 1 a couple of years ago, and it was amazing. But the valley roads in Coolorado were life affirming.

  • @The333

    Your editing and background/mood music are great. Really nicely done (as usual). Safe travels.

  • @michaelskinner896

    So nicely done. The music with the redwoods and wide-angle shots was transportive! Just sublime!

  • @azdesertdog
    @azdesertdog ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh wow. This is the ride that keeps getting pushed to the back burner. It's my before I'm 60 ride. I love the redwoods. A two hour visit to John Muir woods turned into all day for me. As always a an excellent video an trip.

  • @OldGuyonaBike
    @OldGuyonaBike ปีที่แล้ว

    Trees are pretty cool. Loved going thru the redwoods in 2008 and looking forward to that again in Sept.. You haven't gone soft but you do need to get Doodle camping. She doesn't know what she's missing. Really enjoyed this one.

  • @KeViNMCMXXCIX
    @KeViNMCMXXCIX ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Oh my gosh, i'm still in awe by The Grandfather Tree and the Redwood National Park in general (at least this bit of what i've seen so far). Seems so mythical and/or mystical even.
    Astonishing! Trees are pretty cool! The music choice may have enforced that a bit as well. But very well chosen! Looking forward seeing more! It does seems like a nice trip to do!

  • @JCrozier1
    @JCrozier1 ปีที่แล้ว

    I feel like i haven't seen you run around with a rainfly on for so long. It made me smile.

      trees really are pretty cool. Esp where you were.

  • @johnburgess2084
    @johnburgess2084 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for another great tour! I'm watching these in random order, having seen the Oregon ride yesterday and this Northern California ride today. So reminiscent of my past 2 rides along the Oregon Coast to the Redwoods Forest / Avenue Of The Giants in recent years. Call me a bit slow in recognizing patterns, but I'm getting to love your traditional Rain Fly Dance. At first I thought that was part of your intro, but I'm seeing that it's a regular part of all your campground visits. Keep riding and being safe. P.S., "TREES ARE PRETTY COOL."

  • @jasonshortphd
    @jasonshortphd ปีที่แล้ว

    I have gone through the Redwoods on my bike twice now. NEVER disappointed with that whole area. I was going to go that route about the same time you were there, but detoured to much further inland. I got snow instead.

  • @oulupulu
    @oulupulu ปีที่แล้ว

    Hot darn! Those snow and sand anchors are exactly what I need for our camping trips!! Thanks Amanda 😊

  • @hakonsatvedt2146
    @hakonsatvedt2146 ปีที่แล้ว

    Majestic trees. Best enjoyed by motorcycle I think. Can smell the trees as well. Never get tired of that Africa Twin as a back drop. One day I'll have one 😁

    • @monunyabidness5949

      I love mine so much I bought it 3X. (my brother crashed my first one, I was rear ended on my 2nd one, and i'm currently at 48k miles on my 3rd one.) All DCTs. All incredible machines.

    I must be really fat. I sleep in a 15F Diamond Park bag (top used as a quilt) with a Hammock Gear under-quilt. I sleep in shorts and a tee (rarely in a long sleeved tee) in 30-40F nights and I get hot. Great video! Cans of soup are totally acceptable. Trees are pretty cool!

    In the part of the video where take your #parkinglotbreak.
    I rolled up in probably a work pick up. But I asked you "How do you like the Africa Twin?" And we proceeded to have a short conversation about different adventure bikes. I still haven't bought one but I will be soon. I valued your opinion on the matter. Thank you for the short conversation we had. I appreciate it. And the footage of the coast was great!

    Okay so based on our mutual love of Chinese food, I'm now making it my mission to find something good in my area before you make it over here in the fall, haha. This series is SO fun, makes me sad that getting all the way over to CA is such an undertaking for me! I'll get out there eventually. Loved watching you ride through the tree ahaha. Good to know about the snow and sand anchors! Definitely have had that problem a few times haha

    I absolutely adore the PCH, we used to drive on it all the time when I was a kid in San Diego. Haven't been up that far, I want to make a ride from SD up to about San Jose/south San Fran and cut over to Tahoe, ride down to Vegas then back down to SD camping out in the desert somewhere. Would be a hell of a trip! You're killin it, love watching your adventures Amanda
