Take care
That's a HUGE step!
Bit jealous lol
Upward and Onward!! 😎🤘
Enjoyed watching the video and the house was very beautiful and the place where that house was 💕 Good night dear Take care of yourself.
Love your channel
Are you gonna do any freelance?????
Jess way to go. We all love the security of a 9-5 and knowing there’s a consistent check. But at the same time we have to live out our dreams and desires. I’m guilty myself of wanting to leave my corporate job but haven’t. Bravo to you Jess for taking that last of faith. You will most certainly be successful doing CZcams full time. Love your channel and will continue to support. Your one of the few who seems genuine and it shows. Continue success Jess. 🏍
The end of this video... Sitting there with a drink just listening to it rain while you're chilling in a cabin?! Heaven!
Rain really is magical to listen to. I've made a rainstorm video with gentle rain sounds czcams.com/video/Zy2mO2G6ybo/video.html. Would be glad if you checked it out.
Fantastic that you're doing what you love doing- Many people can learn from your example
First I went to Sturgis. I stayed at the Buffalo Chip. I had a wonderful time and went on many rides. To name a few. Badlands, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Devils Tower. You have been my inspiration. When you spoke about fears and the best way to overcome was to ride more was so right on. You keep on moving forward and I will enjoy watching your success
GAH AWESOME!!! I can not WAIT to explore that area on two wheels!!
@@HerTwoWheels its is awesome riding out there doesnt have to be during the sturgis rally to enjoy the views
@@johnphelps9290 Probably better when the rally isn't there.
What event you gong to next?
"I quit my job because I couldnt go to Sturgis" I love it - Life goals you go girl
I've heard worse reasons for quitting a job. Shit, I quit my job recently because I hated it. Quitting for Sturgis would have sounds better.
This is not a decision she will ever regret on her deathbed.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! I am so happy for your next chapter in life! Being your own boss is the best feeling ever!
I play in a band in N.E. Ohio, and every year since 1998 I’ve had a gig preventing me from going to Sturgis. I’m blocking off dates next year, and if they’re working, they can get a fill in guitar player. I’m 70 and don’t want to miss any more chances to do the things I want. Congratulations on your new life.
What part of NE are you? I’m in Youngstown
If there is one thing I've learned, even though I learned it too late, it's to enjoy your life. Don't get bogged down in the daily grind. Life is a mystery walk. Never fear what is around the next curve. Look forward to it no matter what it turns out to be. There is always something to be learned. Embrace it. I wish I had learned it sooner. Much love.
Wise words!
Enjoying life is very important for no man knows the number of his days but God the the creator of all things knows the number of our days.
I agree. After I sold my company for 4 million at age 40, I took off and finally got to see America by motorcycle. It’s a hoot to pull up to a $500 per night hotel on your bike looking like someone who couldn’t afford to stay there. The meals that I had at some of the finest restaurants serving the local game are memories I’ll cherish
It’s never too late
@@mannyzx1 unfortunately my friend sometimes the road runs out of bricks.
Love it! And love my Harley! As a combat wounded OEF (Afghanistan) Vet, riding has been my therapy. It has literally saved my life. I love riding even with a mostly artifical right leg.
I’m so so happy for you for following your heart! That’s when the real magic in life happens 🤗
That's so true.👍👍
Good for you, my wife quit her corporate job (in groveport) and started her own business. she's so much happier now.
Congrats Jess on this milestone of your youtube career. Keep being that awesome positive person!
I will certainly do my best! 🤗
You didn't quit your job, your simply decided it was time to live your life to the fullest, share your riding passion with all of us, inspire and motivate more people to get out there and enjoy what biking and freedom is all about, well done!! Safe rides and more amazing videos to come then!! 👍👍
The "unknown" is always alil scary,not having that "for sure" paycheck, but we all have to do things that make us unsure to get us to our happy place/life, congrats jess, u will do great in this next chapter and chapters ahead 👍👍👍👍
You'll be fine, Jess. You have plenty of talent, and success doesn't come from WHAT you know, but what you DO with what you know. Your drive and ambition will take you to wondrous heights. The journey begins right now. Enjoy the ride.
What an inspirational moment to share with all of your fans. thank you! you're doing great!
Congrats on your step to a full time CZcamsr, it's something that all content creators want to acomplish. I've been following you for a little over a year now and I have to say that I like your style and the way you speak to the camera, it makes me feel like we are having a one on one chat. Also your video production has also been improved, congrats on that too. You are in the road on becoming an icon in no time. Happy riding, stay safe and ride the life.
Always do what makes you happy! You only have one life so live it to the fullest. Congratulations on your next journey in life! Excited to see what comes next.
Thank you!! First week as a “free woman” is already SO FULL of travel plans and events! 🥰
🥂😁😁😁😁😁
You have to do what you think is best for you. No matter what that may be, just know that your true fan base will be here to support you in any way we can. I can tell in your voice and in your eyes, you have had a heavy weight lifted from you and your seem to be a shinning light as you were from the first video I saw you in. Best of luck to future endeavors. We will be here to support you.
Congrats Jess, hope it all go's great for you on this youtube trip.
Thank you!!
Nothing can beat a solo trip only you and your Harley on the open road. 🏍️
Congrats Jess, very happy for you... the start of an amazing journey, sometimes you have to close doors behind you to allow new ones to open.
💕🌸
First off,I am also from Ohio, South of Cleveland. But I wanted to wish you a bodaciously blessed new year. Follow your dreams, make wonderful memories of every day. I have been riding all my life. Over 60 yrs, you can never give it up. It never gets old. Also I would have parked it under the cabin. Had all kinds of room. Happy trails,Chuck
Congrats Jess! That’s so amazing. You’re a beast and this is so well deserved. Let’s ride sometime soon.
I grew up in Ky. Spent a lot of time in the gorge, rode that chair lift! I’ve been in Florida now for 13 years. Thanks for this trip. Brings me back home.
Congrats Jess! Been subscribed to the channel for over a year. It's helped me define some of what I want to get out of my own riding. Anxious to see the adventures you go on with this next stage!
Gotta love Red River Gorge or "The Gorge" as it's said by many. There's great hiking, camping, cave spelunking, rock climbing, repelling, just chillin and enjoying the view, and and of course great roads to ride
So excited for you and your adventures! ❤️
😭😭😭 me toooooo!!!
I hear ya on the job issue,I'm a new road glide owner myself...Can't wait for the weather to get better...good for you and enjoy every minute of it
Congrats on doubling down on your YT Career!! I know that had to be a big decision for you and Jordan. Excited to see where this path leads you.
Congrats Jess, welcome to your new life of actual real tangible freedom!!! Just don't let your CZcams career grind you down, make sure to enjoy the ride and stop to smell the roses from time to time.
Yea I wouldn’t leave my bike up there. Just ease her down there and take your time. You can do it 😎👍😎😎
Ya! im with you i agree i wouldn't ether ,i wouldn't have been able to relax and enjoy myself as i would be thinking about my bike sitting out there uncovered and unattended.
Congratulations. You should definitely come up to Michigan now and ride through the tunnel of trees and check out some breweries in the Grand traverse county this fall.
Congrats young lady! You had a dream and you worked until you achieved it! Cant wait to see what is next! My wife and daughter (as well as I) love your videos. Have fun and be safe!
Wow, awesome place, that's a cute cabin. Thanks for taking me along Jess.
“That’s a giant hole” “It’s so wet in here” Jess quotes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for this video. We just had to cancel our summer holiday stay due to my mother-in-law fell on her artificial hip and broke it and her hipbone (very, very bad, she hardly can help herself now - artificial joint cannot be replaced. So a ton to organize). So your video was absolutely lovely to see, what a cute, cosy cabin. Appa really seems to enjoy himself, even in rain. I can understand you very well, I did something similar years ago (had a very safe job, but it affected my mental health really badly).
It must be a millennial thing? I don't know if you've noticed but there's a lot of turmoil going on right now in the United States. ( I hope I don't get a lot of hate for this comment) You're a lot braver than I am girl.
Do you mean to say that millennials are more likely to quit a corporate job in the midst of turmoil? Not sure if it's so cut and dry.
@@general_future Depends on what the job pays the benefits I've had a lot of Blue collar jobs I'd quit and just went to the next one you know what I mean. Debt is a chain hold you down.
I agree brother, can't see giving up a weekly pay check and insurance unless the significant other is well off or has a better job to support the whole family. I'm kinda old fashioned in the sense that I like my bills paid and on time.
@@knightshift7296 I think you'd find that there are lots of millennials that agree with you. Which is why Jerry's comment confuses me. How/why is Jess' personal decision somehow reflective of her age/generation? I guess jumping to conclusions is a gen x/boomer thing 🤷
I lived at the southern edge of the Daniel Boone National forest for more than half my life and this vid really makes me homesick. Hope you got some good riding in on the scenic roads.
You are a clearly an inspiration. My enthusiasm for motorcycle traveling has been boosted.
This was such a majestic ride through the hills and all the woods, and that sky bridge was so " cool " lol thanks for taking us with you. Keep the vids coming please.
I live in Mexico City and just bought a 2003 100 year anniversary Electra Glide Ultra Classic CVO 103 engine from Texas and had it imported. I am in the the midst of a minor restoration (Major Clean up and detailing). Then start touring in combination with my photography and drone photography. Have fun on your new life adventure, there is nothing better than feeling free. Happy Travels.
I'm so glad I don't need to carry rain gear in SoCal. I mean I'd still ride I'm sure and get used to it but here I get to have a lot more space for other stuff in the bags cause it rains very little hear. That cabin is soooo cool. The outside reminds me of summer camp when I was a teenager.
So brave girl....Everyday is Saturday.
Best of the best wishes to you new journeys...
Been to Sturgis many times. You didn’t miss anything. Drunks, drunks on two wheels, drunks, and more drunks. I get more out of riding on my own now than in any ride or get together. Have a great day!
Beautiful part o the country there! Enjoy it! I used to go with a group of about 30 friends every year to Cumberland. We’d rent 3 giant houseboats and chill on the water for a week of outrageous fun and a little bit of heaven on Earth. Best vacations of my life! Thank you for sharing - really glad you’re getting to enjoy “there.”
abything that brings you "JOY" should not be denied (providing your joy isnt hurting others or TOO fattening)!
I have honestly never thought of putting a string on my puck! That is genius! Work smarter not harder!! Thanks! 🙌
Congratulations young lady. Live your dream....and don't second guess yourself at all. Take care, Tri-Glide Ed
Way to go! I quit driving truck after 13 years,because I hated it,and now my 6th career at 62 is a diesel technician.
Whilst it might be scary to give up your job, you did it for the right reason and sometimes you need to take a risk to try something different. I wish you ever success and happiness in what yoiu do, Well done for having the courage.
Aww wow, that was COOL ride, luved it, my kinda roads.
And your cabin is outa this world.
Enjoy your new life, you so deserve success and you will have it. thanx for letting me ride with you.
Take care and ride safe.
Cheers
Neil
Sturgis is a must for any motorcycle rider. Seriously, the Black Hills are beautiful and the roads just got repaved and are more awesome than ever! My very first year of riding, getting my license and road Iron Mountain! Not our first Sturgis, but my first actually riding all the beautiful roads. Never regret Sturgis! I also just bought my second bike at Black Hills Harley Davidson…a 2013 Heritage Softail! WTH were we thinking? Now we got to trailer it back to Kentucky, LOL!
Tip for rain gear…place plastic grocery bags over boots before you put them on…helps slide pants over boots much easier
Wow congratulations. You are living a motorcyclist dream right now. Keep the great contact coming
That’s kind of how I feel at the moment stuck in a lousy job. Congratulations on your endeavors going forward.
From Australia, Love the sound of rain on the roof especially when we've been through years of drought.
Congrats, Jess! Not only do you live in my state, my city, but you are traveling the same roads I do every day!
Wow!! Jess. Hats off to you for making such a bold move. I hope all your dreams come true & I wish you the best of luck in your new life.
Enjoy your away adventure and thank you for taking us along for the ride.
That landscape looks so "COOL" lol, and the views from your trip to and from the Sky Bridge look stunning. I can also imagine rev bombing all the way through that tunnel. What a awesome sound that would be.😀.
Looking forward to your next chapter, so for now. Ride safe and have heaps of fun. 🏍💨👌💕
Tip to easy get into the raingear: put a plasicbag on each foot before you pull up the trousers. They slide on much easier, guaranteed! 😊🏍
Congratulations! The Red River Scramble is going to be in that area late September. Some people stick to the pavement riding and camping. Caitlyn would be your buddy for the street during the day if you went. I don't think she's about to take her cruiser off-roading!
You are living your life, so enjoy & don't worry about anything.
I know how you feel when you say “Get yourself back together”: I’m 61 and getting on my bike puts me into the same feeling. I started riding again 3 years ago.
Congrats on putting your happiness first ma'am. I look forward to seeing your adventures.
did the same after I got out the Army 1978, left Connecticut, found a wrecked 1968 FLH off the Original Owner in Illinois, took a couple years getting her on the road but never forget the first time I crossed the Rockies on her going into SLC, she sits in my living room now. America is My Home.
only time I ever wore rain gear except for what my mom made us where as a child was living in the mud out in the field in the Army, kinda refreshing riding in the rain, you should try it.
You finally got the glide out and did a tour on it, it's about time, lol. Keep on riding it. I'm looking forward to the next tour on the glide.
ive been riding for 15 years. recently found your channel shadetree surgeon. you and biker babe beth both inspired my wife to try riding. looking forward to see her join me this fall looking the foliage!
So awesome!!!
Keep a plastic bag or two with your rain gear. The plastic "single use" bags they use at Total Wine work exceptionally well (they are thicker than most). Put your boot in the bag and the rain pants will go on MUCH easier. Using the slick plastic-bag as an over-boot / bootie allows the rain pants to just glide on effortlessly. Once you've got the pants on, pull the bag off your boot.
Hi HTW, I love your content, but you know you don’t need to thank us all time. You can own your success, it’s yours. We don’t stay because you’re thankful, we love your personality. 🙏
Not familiar with the Stanton area, but south eastern Kentucky never disappoints for quality motorcycle rides!
Two Wheels, try mounting your bike when it's on the stand from the right side when you have your bike loaded with gear. Just steady yourself with your right hand on the throttle, step up on the floor board and step over the seat. Don't worry your stand will hold you up. Good luck with your choice on leaving your job. I know that can be stressful, but life is short take the chance while you can. There are plenty of jobs out there, you have to do what makes you happy. Happy is most important!
Loop the string for the kickstand plate on your handlebar and you can just reel it in while you’re sitting on the bike!
Congratulation Jess. I recently quit my job too but it wasn't anything great and the circumstances were more dire. Still. I've been slowly recharging and looking very much forward to the next chapter. Best wishes to you and for the new things to come your way.
Congrats on taking the plunge! Cruising down 23 heading to your little escape! Same roads I ride. My wife and I just sold our house in Groveport and are moving to Florida. Scary with no job or place to live. Air B&B rented for 30 days till we find a place and jobs! Best of luck to you! Ohio will always be home!
This reminds me the Itchy boots path! Glad for you! You are brave woman. Greetings from Bulgaria
Pack two plastic bags with your raingear. First slip your boots into the bags, then they glide much more easily through the legs and keep the inside of the rainpants clean. And it is always nice to have extra bags.
Well done leaving your job 👍 I've done that a few times in my life. A roadtrip sounds fun 🏍️😀 Cool jeans & boots. Bummer it rained. Yeah I hate putting on rain gear too. Nice little stop with the food truck on the water 💦. Yep nothing like riding to get experience. Cool bike views along the way & great riding through the trees 🌲. Nice cabin on the water. The gondola ride is cool and the skybridge is great too. Luv the tunnel. Rain is nice for sleeping 💤
You are the reason I called Farrow Harley North. So sick of getting jacked around by my dealer an hour and a half north of there. Super people I talked to on the phone and I told them that you led me there. 9 weeks and my 2021 Ultra still isn't fixed after I crashed it. Glad I have 2 others to ride.
sorry to hear that you quit your job. But I wish you well on your new Journey. Beautiful scenery awesome video
Jess, @4:50 in the vid. "all the oils come out" -- the Oils are already there on the roadways (leaking from everyone's vehicles) -- whenever rain 1st starts failing it becomes the slickest like a slip-n-slide til it rains enough that the oil gets washed away or diluted.
**. its always best to Not ride in the center of the lane where all the oil drippings are on roadways anyway & especially when its raining - Oily Wet Rubber may sound fun but in the case of motorbike tires is No Bueno~
Congrats!!! I left my white collar job back in Feb 2019! It gave me so much more time to spend with my son and help my daughter navigate her first semester in college...keep it up!
Living in Central Ohio if you ever get the chance on the third weekend in July there is an antique motorcycle show and races in Wauseon. A great time with great people! 100+ year old motorcycles with no clutch and no brakes running around the track. There is also a woman's chapter of the AMCA which always meets there. It started there a few years ago.
Congrats. That Sky Bridge was COOL 😎 I'll have to checkout about cabins next time. You was all was just west of Eye of the Dragon and NADA tunnel in the Red River Gorge beautiful ride.
Should of park it under the cabin out of the weather but I know ya said you wasn't sure about the hill and gravel. Keep Gliding girl, the more you do the more you become one with the machine.
Congrats. Follow your dream and success will follow because you will be engaged and passionate about it. Good luck. I’m looking forward to following along!
You are an inspiration to all of us on two wheels. Keep on rollin’.
Thank you! Will do!
I'm so very proud to say I'm from the great state of Kentucky. Come back anytime, congrats on retirement , so to speak !
Hi, it’s Jen :) I usually have to watch with subtitles while Sebastian is napping and one of the times you said, “I hate rain gear”, the caption said “I hate reindeer” 😆 That sky bridge was scary! I would have army crawled across it 😱
Congrats on your new life. You've worked hard to get where you are. Now it's your turn to be who you want to be.
You and your Mom, or Husband, or both, might enjoy an evening dinner cruise on the Ohio River. Most of the time the food is very good and, the bonus is, you get live riverboat music. Lots of fun.
Jess, you got me on this one. I grew up about an hour/hour and a half east of there. Nothing in this world tugs at my heart more than those old mountains. Home...
I'm betting I'm not the only one who saw this coming. Have no doubt, you will much doubt. But, you've taken a brave step, I'm certain you've considered the options, measured the financial risks and how you and JR can make this all balance out. Here's the thing, if it works out, you'll be so pleased with that sense of independence and success. You'll feel fully in control of your destiny. And being fair and balanced here, if it doesn't work out, well you did something that few ever do... You've taken a chance in believing in yourself and that is something very few ever do. In short, I don't see a down side in your decision. If you succeed, great. If someday you need to go back "corporate", you'll do so with a sense of confidence and achievement. Good on you, Jess. Good on you. and Good luck.
Tip for rain gear, keep your waterproof pants in a plastic carrier bag (not the really think kind though), when it rains put the bag over your boot and you should be able to pull the leg over the boot without it getting caught up.
I did too.. grew up on a farm in Doylestown being the oldest then 4 sisters who hated farming like my mother. At 14 I had a special driver's license. I showed promise in baseball football so they sold the farm. Bought what I thought was the smallest house they could find. Found later notnso around here along the shores of the Ohio Erie Canal. Canal Fulton was the place to be... I koved to Texas raised a family them moved back. Back is the place to be.... riding a Harley along the shores is the best to be... I ride out the
drive and farms I see fresh air the hall of fame there all still not for me.
Someday I'm gonna ride to Florida as St Cloud is where I'd like to be sunshine and rain to keep my little Harley clean
Ride safe
Remember Ohio is the place your heart should be ❤💙💜
Congratulations! Decisions like that are tough! I left my job at the brewery back in May to do my music full time…terrifying, but totally worth it! Good luck moving forward! Ya killin’ it!
Phil from SC
AHHHHH CONGRATULATIONS!! So happy we caught you in April!
@@HerTwoWheels oh, I’m still around! Playing 4-5 nights a week around town. HMU next time you’re here!
I know that feeling of total freedom that you are experiencing. Nothing can compare! Ride safe young lady.
Well done chica. Do what you love and don’t let anyone or anything get in the way of that. Life is too short to be hindered down. Keep it up.
First time I've seen your new bike and I'm jealous! It's absolutely beautiful! Almost as beautiful as You!!!! Be careful and congratulations! Good luck with your new journey.
The Red is an iconic destination for any purpose. I have spent a tremendous amount of time there rock climbing. Off road trails and Miguel’s Pizza are a must to get the true vibe of Red River Gorge. The roads are made for two wheels and be sure to go through Nada Tunnel in Slade, KY.
So brave... My wife and I did something similar last year... to embrace our 6 months cross-country trip.. best decision ever! Funny fact, now we are both working at the same position we had before quitting... WHAAAAT! LOL... by the way, I believe the tunnel is the "nada tunnel", we rode it during our adventure...
Congrats becoming a full time CZcamsr!!!
