- Roam New Zealand, following on from Australia I explore NZ on a solo motorbike camping adventure along dirt tracks, mountain passes, across properties/farms, back roads, the occasional HWY, camping beside lakes, on beaches, in the mountains and beside dirt tracks. Join me as I explore the beauty of this amazing country by motorcycle.
I didn’t find this work of art , it found me ❤ love and respect from India 🇮🇳
Thanks mate, it is great to hear you are enjoying the series. I hope you be riding in your mountains soon.
Nice intro. Really gets me hyped for the rest of the trip. Thanks Joe.
Thanks mate, the first episode is always a little slower as I am just trying to get to the good stuff 😂
Love from INDIA ❤🎉
Thanks mate, I hope you enjoy the series.
Hi from New York. I am so jealous! Thanks for the views.
Hi mate, it's great to hear you enjoyed the fist episode, New Zealand is an amazing place to explore.
Great intro Jo! Congratulations to Royal Enfield! 👏 Joe would do the new Himalayan 450 well! Wow! New Zealand, what a place you show us Viewers with your photographic skills! 👍😁
Thanks mate, great to hear you liked it. The 450 is not in NZ as yet, still a few more weeks away, they have started closing down the tracks for winter and it is getting to cold to camp. Spoiler alert, the Scam 411 does a great job.
Your journey is truly fascinating! I love how you explore by motorbike. The beautiful scenery and thrilling experiences have really made me want to explore more. Thank you for sharing!
thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed the first episode of the series. It is a lot of fun exploring a new country on a motorbike, roaming through the mountains and coast line.
Awesome bro! Based and Perth with a kiwi father. Starting my own vlog moto channel and this inspired me. Cheers and keep it up
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. Awesome that you're getting out there filming your stuff.
Great to have you back, Joe. And great to see Royal getting behind you because so they bloody well should. Looking forward to the new content. 👍
It's great to be back. Grateful for the loan of the bike. New Zealand is an epic place to ride, amazing trails and mind-blowing scenery.
I'm sitting here starting to plan a short camping trip in a few weeks' time and up pops a new series! YAAAAY!
Sounds like fun, nothing better than getting out there.
Awesome start. Can’t wait for the rest!!!!
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoy the first episode, many more to come.
Hi Joe - Welcome to NZ and specifically the South Island. A mate from Vic put me on to your work and I look forward to seeing how you capture the stunning scenery we call home. Safe riding mate.
Thanks mate, New Zealand is an epic place to explore, I could never do it justice, it a place you need to explore in person to really take in the mind-blowing scenery and the epic trails but I'll do my best.
When you get close to Queenstown and you need a bed, you’re very welcome. At the very least I’d be happy to buy you a beer and point out a couple of tracks to explore.
That intro had me drooling for an adventure. I'm definitely hyped for the rest of the series.

Cool, I've beeen looking forward to this trip.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed the first episode, about 16 more to come.
@10:42 a bit of trivia for you Joe. The building that is coming into the frame from the left is/was a rock crushing plant. The unusual triangular shape is because it is built using some of the recycled piers from the Otoko Viaduct. The viaduct was on the Moutohora Branch which was built with the intention of eventually meeting up with the East Coast Main Trunk that was terminated at Taneatua. The Moutohora Branch closed in 1953.
Good to see you in NZ, lots more of the scenery is familiar to me.
Anthony.
I did notice that building, oh i wish I had that bit of information before I edited haha. I love interesting facts about things and places.
Nice Start Joe. Looking forward to more episodes of NZ.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it.
Great to see you back on the road / track / trail again Joe, and in one the best countries in the world to boot..we have motorhomed the South Island and not once in three weeks had to stay in a commercial park, always managed to find a wild camping spot each night and usually next to a river, lake or the ocean .... cheers Joe, its going to be a great Kiwi journey ....
It's great to be back, New Zealand is an amazing place to explore, awesome trails, mind-blowing scenery and yes great camp sites.

Gosh I missed you 😊 you’re such an inspiration! I saw horses lol🐎
Great to see you back again Joe and I’ll be looking forward to seeing you roam in NZ this season on the Scram
Great to be back, New Zealand is an amazing place to explore, there should be around 16 episodes in this series.
Awesome, glad to have you back Joe. You have a place to stay in Daphne, Alabama (near Mobile) should you get down this way. Keep em coming...🏍
Great to be back, oh right along the 10, well I'll definitely take a not of that, thanks for the offer.
Duuuuuuuddddeee!! 😂❤ THAT intro of yours made me want to get up, pack up and leave asap, in the middle of the night. My brother's just been there to NZ and I've been contemplating, then this video pops up! Thanks, Mr. Joe.
Great to hear you are liked the first episode, NZ is definitely worth exploring, I barely scratched the surface there is so much here.
Hi Joe, along with a lot of others I really enjoyed that introduction. Really cool. Congratulations on the loan bike from Royal Enfield !! Awesome campsites so far. Looks like a beautiful place. It’s on my bucket list.
Your ROAM poster looks great on my wall.
Enjoy NZ, I’m looking forward to the upcoming episodes. 👍🇦🇺
thanks Kent, great to hear you enjoyed the first episode. Yes very grateful for the loan of the motorbike, it wouldn't have been possible with out it.
New Zealand is an epic place to explore definitely do it.
Stoked you liked the poster.
Looking forward to the rest of this trip
Great to hear you are enjoying the new series, there will probably be around 16 episodes.
Really enjoyed that, looking forward to seeing more of your adventures around the beautiful South Island !
Great to hear you enjoyed the first episode, there are are probably anther 15 episodes to come.
So beautiful country. Jealous !!!
Yes it is, actually some of the places are mind-blowing, like a movie set.
Loving this Joe………N.Z is one of my favourite places
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. Yes it is an amazing place to explore.
@@freewayproject keep up the great work Joe. I see their have big Raps on the Enfield maybe you should him them up when you get back
Brilliant Joe. I’m loving this and will take notes as I’m planning my trip for next Feb. shipping my bike over and camping for 6 weeks.
Cheers. Annie
Definitely worth doing, trails are awesome, the scenery is mind-blowing and great places to camp. I think February is the best time. I was delayed a bit but still good weather.
Keep 'em coming...always enjoy your videos. I love my '21 Himalayan, but I often wonder about the 19 inch front, since most of my time is on pavement ...and I agree with the others below, love the intro.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed the episode. Yes the 19 is definitely better on road when in those fun winding roads
Oh that's some serious editing those first 2 mins! And a great video Joe, look forward to watching the series unfold. Thanks mate 👍👍
Thanks mate, I picked out just the best shots for that first part, it started at over 15mins 😳 so had to whittle it down to under 2min. But it will all appear in the up coming series. The place is epic to explore, so many cool tracks.
Awesome intro Jo.... Looking forward to seeing what else you get up to on the South Island. Cheers for sharing all your Adventures Mate.. 😀
Thanks mate, New Zealand is an awesome place to explore.
Welcome back mate. I've really missed your videos. The opening sequence has to be the best TH-cam edit I've ever seen. Cheers.
It's great to be back, this journey is a special one, I hope you enjoy the series.
cool. very nice scenery
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. Yes NZ is a stunning place and the scenery gets better and better the further into the series we get.
Looking forward to see NZ through your Camera!
enjoy!
Thanks mate, I hope you enjoy it.
So excited about this new season you’ve started, Joe! Question for you that I’ve been meaning to ask since the last season - how do you avoid dust with your camera gear (specifically with your SLR - does your backpack do a good job of keeping the dust out?)? Especially when riding gravel all day?
I am glad you are along for the ride.
Probably the main reason I avoid dust is I ride alone (most of the time), most dust normally comes from other vehicles. Also yes the backpack which is a Shimoda (shimodadesigns.com) is design for this type of thing, keeping snow (water) and dust out. So I have never really had an issue with dust. I also have sensor cleaners with me as I need to change the lens a far bit.
I went through Wānaka and there was a camera store charging sensor cleaning starting at $90, you can buy a sensor cleaning pack of 10 for $20 and it takes less than 2 mins, I've been doing it for years in the middle of nowhere and never had an issue cleaning it. The camera stores try to scare people off from doing it yourself so they can make easy money.
Beautiful video editing. And love the sincerity tone that you have set. Wish you safe travels and many more such adventures.
Thanks Narayan, it is great to hear you enjoyed the episode, I hope you like the rest of the series.
What a fantastic start to an amazing journey. Looking forward to the next instalment and to see your thoughts on the SCRAM vs the Himalayan.
New Zealand is an amazing place to explore. Yes I'll share my thoughts along the way the do a review of the Scram and how it compares the the Himalayan.
Welcome back Joe!
Thanks, it is great to be back and exploring again.
Hi there, glad to see you made it to NZ- was wondering when to see something from you next 😉. Looks amazing- great video and pics. Cheers from Lombok Eva
Stoked to be In NZ, it's an amazing place to explore, awesome trails and mind-blowing scenery.
I am lucky enough to live in Nelson ( Top of the Sth Island ) & can ride some pretty awesome trails right on my doorstep. 😊
You definitely are, so many amazing tracks everywhere it seems, I know I must be riding past so many I don't know are there, oh well i'll just have to come back a few more times 😂. I hope you're having fun out there.
Thanks! Great to see you back on the road. Looks like a great adventure ahead . Safe travels
It's great to be back Larry, thank you as always for the support. New Zealand is an amazing place to explore, the roads are great the tracks are amazing, good spots to camp and the scenery is mind-blowing, lots of episodes to come.
@@freewayproject It will be interesting to see how the Scram performs vs the Himalayan
@@larrykaminski3269 yes, it will be interesting, I'll do a review once the trip is done.
Awesome brother!
NZ absolutely fantastic place, especially with the freedom of the moto
Thanks mate, yes the place is mind-blowing to explore.
really great video man, keep it up
Thanks mate, I hope you enjoy the series.
Great to see you back on the road Joe
You were saying you changed your normal jacket for a warmer one for NZ
Gotta tell ya, I'm lovin my "Merlin" summer jacket that you recommended
Looking forward to seeing your South Island adventure
Great to be back. Yes there has been no need for a summer jacket here haha. yes that Merlin one is great.
The south island is an amazing place to explore, awesome trails, great camp spots and mind-blowing scenery.
Looking forward to seeing your NZ adventure. Your stills will be epic I’m sure.
I hope you enjoy it.
Fantastic Joe. Been wondering where you had gone and hoping to see something soon. Pumped for this series.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. Yes took me a bit to get it sorted, I think the episodes (tacks and scenery) should get better the further into the series we get.
Beautiful as always! We were wondering where you were, now we know. So nice of RE NZ to lend you a Scram. I thought the Scram had a USB port under the left switch pod like the Himalayan, it's odd how RE changes things up. I had a similar idea about how to get the Rinowalk bags through an airline. I was just going to strap the bags together and try not to worry, your way is better. Rinowalk does make a universal heat shield that clamps on to the muffler, but I think you could fashion similar out of a bit of tin and some large hose clamps.
Yes very grateful that they lent me the bike. Apparently some version did have a USB port but not this one. Yes I have been in a lot of airports and have actually heard checking staff say to people you have strapped 2 bags together so it's classed as 2 bags. So I got the bag that goes over my 70L hiking backpack (the bag is light and tough an used for when putting the back pack on the plane so all the straps and buckets don't get destroyed by baggage handlers). I got the 2 side panniers my 40L top bag, my tank bag and my helmet in there, all that under 23kg.
Hi Joe nice to see you back on the road love the intro looks a stunning place to ride and glad to see you finally getting some well earned recognition from RE looking forward to the rest of the series all the best mate from a wet n windy UK.
It is great to be back, NZ is epic, good road, great track, awesome camp site and mind-blowing scenery. Yes very grateful for the loan of the bike otherwise I would not be able to do it.
@@freewayproject thanks for the reply Joe 👍enjoy
Stoked to see u back brother and In Nz this is going to be awesome
Good to be back, New Zealand is an awesome mind-blowing place to explore.
The bike was a score
@@stevematalone2512 yes it was, I am vet grateful
Wow it looks like Oregon
Yes there are some similarities, once I head up the west coast of the south Island it really seems similar to the Pacific North West. I hope you enjoy the series.
Hey Joe, you are back already! Impressive. And what a great intro!
Look forward to discovering the South Island with you!
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. NZ is an epic place to explore.
Great to see you back on the channel 😉. Enzed, what a great choice and judging by the roads so far you are going to have a hoot of a time while we watch and suffer with FOMO. Nice of RE to offer you a ride, well deserved.
Great to be back, yes New Zealand is an amazing place to explore and yes very grateful for the loan of the bike.
Finally back!!
Yes took me a bit to get the whole thing sorted, but finally got there.
My brother in law went to NZ and said it was mind blowing . He would love to ride a motor bike there . When he returned back home , he said that I would never would want to travel NSW again , once I have seen NZ . I will one day visit NZ when the time is right . The scenery is epic in NZ and I can’t wait to go . Having said that I still love our national parks in Australia .your video is very nice thank you !
Yes mind-blowing does sum it up, it is definitely worth going and exploring there.
NSW has some incredible places to explore I see it as just different than NZ no worse no better, unique in it's own way. For example the first episode of the A rough idea series going out to the "Walls of China" in Mungo National park was mind-blowing on sunset.
@@freewayproject I love to see that too ! I can’t wait to watch more of your videos !
Just by seeing intro i knew its going to be a master piece you gained another subscriber mate.
Thanks mate, I hope you enjoyed this New Zealand series, there are a few other on the channel if they interest you.
I just loved that journey. Brings back memories of where I was born. Can't wait to see more. Just a word of Warning my friend---It gets really cold in N.Z. Take care.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. Yes it gotten down to 1 degree a little chilly.
Awesome stuff mate, your previous series inspired me to ride Tasmania early this year and will do the high country next year. Highly motivational. Keep them coming.
Thanks mate, that is awesome to hear, I hope Tasmania was fun, the high country is awesome to explore too.
Into series 3 and the idea of getting on my first motorbike is starting to stick… I can only explore by foot so fast and so far 😂 looking forward to following on 🤩 congrats on the new series!!
Well there is always the options of riding to remote trail heads on the bike then hiking on foot.
Great to see you back so soon Joe. NZ is unreal for a motorcycle trip NZ is my second home and lucky enough to have done a few trips around the place as I have a bike stored there with family. South Island especially is a treat! Looking forward to the series.
BTW I have the 450 on order. Cant wait to collect from the dealership soon. After riding a mates 411 and watching your series convinced me to pick one up. As you have said in one of your vidoes it's perfect exploring bike which is my wheelhouse now I'm in my early 40's and take it a little slower.
Good to be back. New Zealand is epic to explore, awesome trails and mind-blowing scenery.
Apparently the 450 is a good step above the 411 so it should be a lot of fun.
Ride off to an awesome start. Really looking forward to this as I want to do a trip like this in the not too distant future. It was a bit of luck to get the bike as one of the frustrating things is that it is pretty cheap to rent a car in NZ but bloody expensive to rent bikes.
Thanks mate, it is an epic place to explore so definitely do it. Yes I am very grateful for the loan of the bike.
Scramblers are so cool.
It is definitely getting the job done on this journey, doing surprisingly well off road, and it is great on road.
Presumably you survived East Cape.
Tiger country , gangs galore.
South Island is the adventure capital for riding.
yes I made it onto the South Island, yes it has great roads amazing trails, good camp site and mind-blowing scenery
Another adventure. How good is that.
Yes stoke to be on another one, New Zealand is an epic place to explore.
Watched some other motorcycle travel videos and none have the fantastic production yours have. You may have done this before. It looks like another great series, thank you.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. (I do have a back ground in making documentaries).
@@freewayproject I think I might have seen some of the ones you talked about in previous videos. You do have a real talent, your photography is brilliant.
Brilliant mate, NZ's a great place for bikes. You came right past my house! (at 15:46)
It is a mind-blowing place to explore, so good. Haha that's insane, or all the road to go down, then for me to actually be recoding at that time and then for me to actually include it in the episode HA.
Good stuff, land of my birth. moved to au from Tauranga. Camped and dived lottin point a few time when younger, my sister in law still camps there every year with her friends. Gisborne's one of the few place I personally haven't been to. Citizen Au back in 2008 so can't see my ever moving back there now. Looking forward to the rest of your journey, esp on the mainland (SI)
Thanks mate, that was an awesome surprise riding down that dirt track through the trees and seeing that stunning empty bay. Lots of episodes to come.
Great work if R.E
give you a bike its a big nod to your content
Thanks mate, yes very grateful for the loan of the bike, I wouldn't be able to explore NZ without it.
That looks like an amazing journey. Looking forward to your future travels. If you're heading back up to the North Island and you need a place to stay, we're only 30 mins from the ferry.
Welcome to stay.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed the first episode. It is an amazing place to explore the trails are epic and the scenery is mind-blowing. Thanks for the offer.
@@freewayproject Thanks for your reply. By the way, I meant we're 30 mins from the Picton ferry.
Good luck
Thanks, I hope you enjoyed it.
G'day Joe.
I have been frothing to see your NZ series begin as I've been to the South many times and absolutely love the South. Haven't done it by motorbike but is definitely on my to do list.
I now own a 2021 Himmy so I'm about to start hitting the dirt and relearning how to dirt ride.
Can't wait to watch your next episode.
Enjoy. 😁
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed the first episode anther 16 to come. NZ is an epic place to explore, trails are so much fun and the scenery is mind-blowing.
Waiting to see what's gonna happen next!
Great to hear you are enjoying the series, episode 4 will go live today (Friday).
Hi Joe. Nice to see you back on the road again. Place looks good very nice camping spot by the water. Cant wait for the next video. Cheers John from gold coast.
It is good to be back, NZ is an epic place to explore, great trails and mind-blowing scenery and yes great camping spots.
Love it Joe - can’t wait to see your Te WaiPounamu coverage. Wish RE had provided you with a 450, but reckon you were probably too early. They wont quite be in the country yet! Regardless, the scram should do the job.
Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it. The Te WaiPounamu is mind-blowing, other worldly. Yes the 450 isn't there for a bit longer and the track will start to close by then and it will be a lot colder, the Sram is doing the job.
Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
Have a good Journey Mr Ryan
Olá, obrigado, a Nova Zelândia é um lugar incrível para explorar, espero que você esteja se divertindo no seu RE Himalyan
