I thought I might try posting my old vids from a trip I took on the 700.

The route took me to Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado from NC.

There are 9 videos, this is #1. The into is too long and corny, but these were my first attempts.

My favorite part of the first couple of days was the encounter with the train.

 
This is number 2

 
Nice vids, very enjoyable. The scenery in 2 was great. Sometimes I miss riding out west.
 
Huh. I wonder what's wrong. I can't see anything but the plain text in your posts.
 
Enjoyed that one too. Brave, or adventurous man to travel that far solo. Impressive.

I've ridden to all 48 states 2 provinces of Canada and 5 countries in Europe but have always traveled with either my brother, a buddy or my wife except for my first trip after retirement when I rode from Cincinnati up to Loon Lake Mn to visit a buddy then across the U.P. and back down thru Michigan back to Ohio. Riding solo is somehow much different than when riding with another person.
 
Number 4


Zion, Grand Canyon
 
Thank you for posting your videos, I enjoyed them very much. Have any more that you'd like to share?

Ok...I've got 9 on this trip.

I certainly don't feel brave...I was more cautious b/c I didn't have someone to help me pick it up if I dropped it. I actually like traveling alone, no one to answer to, however, no one to help make difficult decisions.
 
#4 was good too. Zion is my wife's favorite National Park of the 40 or so we have visited.
 

Number 5. Bryce Canyon, Capital Reef
 
Still can't see anything but blank space. Have a URL with some spaces in it or something, so the board doesn't try to pre-load anything?

other folks are seeing the links/videos. I'm not tech savvy enough to understand the problem.
can you see this? It the link to the original ride report on the ADV forum with links to the videos.
 
I can tell it's just me. Don't know why, but yes, I can see that link.
Thanks!
 
#5 was great too. Been to all those places. My wife and I had to go back to Bryce in a car after she had her hips replaced so she could hike the hoodoo's so she could know her hips worked lol. I watched from above.

Looking forward to Arches and Canyonlands #6?
