Videos

Here are a sample of videos taken from my helmet cam while riding and a few selected, interesting videos from other people about riding.

Riding the Tiger 800XC on my Favorite Road: Long Draw in the Hawks Valley area near the Steens Mountain in Oregon’s southeast.  There is a lot of “why I ride” on this video.  This is simply my best scenario, types of roads. And this bike, well, it simply surprised me with how easily it took the challenge of dirt and gravel roads, how solid and committed to my lines it was. And not afraid of speed either.  I guess if the bike could talk it was telling me: is that all you can give me?

 

Riding the WR250R on my Favorite Road: Long Draw in the Hawks Valley area near the Steens Mountain in Oregon’s southeast.  Same road as above, but riding the small WR250R.  This bike is fast and easy to ride. It is deceptively fast! It was a blast riding this little bike on my favorite road.  And almost as much fun as riding the Tiger 800XC.

 

Why we Ride Part I (by Secret Garden Project):  Nice compilation of footage and quotes explaining “why we ride.”  It matches almost on a 1 to 1 my list of reasons why I ride. Like if we needed to explain… 🙂 

 

Why we Ride Part II (by Secret Garden Project):  More video footage and great commentary. It simply gets better.

 

Riding the Triumph Tiger 800 XC: Riding the Tiger in the Oregon Coastal Range.

 

Riding the Tiger 800XC on slick two-track roads: Following my friend Doug on his KTM 950, both of us on road tires…

 

Riding the BMW F650GS:  Riding the BMW on two-track wet roads in the Oregon Coastal Range.  This bike, when pushed, it delivered.

 

Riding the BMW on the Oregon Coastal Range.  Riding along the Siuslaw River on the Old Stagecoach Rd.  It can be fun out there.

 

Riding the BMW on the Oregon Coastal Range:  More footage around the coast range in Oregon.

 

Riding the Yamaha Wr250R. Riding the WR250R over puddles in the Steens Mountain area.  Just for the sake of it.  And for fun of course.

 

Riding the WR250R on the famous Lippincott Rd., in the Death Valley.  This is quite the road. I miss riding in the Death Valley.

 

WR250R descending the South Loop of the Steens Mountain.
