  • Riding Solo is a video series about motorcycling alone in the USA backcountry on a BMW 1200 GS motorcycle. The videos were filmed during a 6,000 mile/30-day solo ride in the summer of 2020 in locations including Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico. Each episode focuses on great motorcycling roads (paved and dirt), camping, cooking and relaxing in scenic and remote locations. The purpose of the series is to show viewers how easy it is to ride solo on a motorcycle adventure in the USA backcountry.

    Makes me happy every time I get to stop what I'm doing and watch another episode of this series. I so love your style of travel, Sterling, and your aesthetic rendering of the Beartooth Pass is the best I've seen. The sequence of drone footage on the hairpins is a visual work of art that feels something like abstract impressionism. Awesome work!

    Wife and I + kids stayed in Red Lodge back in 2004. Rode our bike and kids drove the car so we could all have one experience. Being from N. Calif it was a fantastic route and great place
    to stay. Especially enjoyed the fact that Red Lodge does not allow fast food like McD or Taco smell. Road Beartooth Pass and enjoyed one of the best rides in my 60 years!

  • @bradleyriles3889

    My best friend moved from Florida to Wyoming a few years back. He asked me several times when I was coming out to visit. Last year he said "I've got both bikes running" and I was on a plane two weeks later. We rode his 96' road king and 98' springer from his place in Sheridan over the Big Horns, across the desert and over Bear Tooth.
    I've ridden everywhere in the East US, parts of Europe, Colorado and Arizona. Wyoming/Montana was possibly the best ride of my life. Didn't think I'd like the Springer but found it to be a good ride that performed admirably. No matter what you ride just get out and ride.

  • @beamdoctor5637
    @beamdoctor5637 Před 3 lety

    I have ridden Beartooth Pass 4 times over the past 10 years. The 3rd time I rode it they were still doing snow removal. Since it was Sunday the snow crew had a day off. The gate was closed the first week of June. But since my friend had came from Texas to ride the pass we decided to go around the gate. We were not the only ones to do this. Coming from the west headed east we made it past the lake. We wore able to take photos with our adventure bikes with the snow banks about 10 -15 feet tall. My friend has never got to come down the east side due to the snow. A great reason for me to plan Trip 5.

    My brother in law is an avid dual sport rider, and he shared one of your videos from this epic trip! It’s very enjoyable watching your excellent videography, story telling and overview of the places you’re visiting. I was so stoked to see your footage of the Beartooth Hiway, as it’s something that’s been in mind to do for a LONG time. This seals the deal. As soon as I can get it all together, I’ll make this trip.

I will also look in Canada (dual citizenship) if necessary. I’m so glad I found you and thanks - from Hells Canyon.

Only been riding two years and learning as I go, I’ve gone on three long distance trips with friends but my favorite riding is solo this past June from Texas to Montana and back with stops thru New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming.

    The one thing that keeps me from "camping" in MT or WY is the fact that it's Grizzly Country. I've been through there twice and each time stayed in Cooke City, then road Bear Tooth and into Red Lodge. Locals in Cooke City warned me about the bears and referenced a mauling, 3-4 years ago now, where a woman was mauled, in her tent, in a well known camp ground. No Thank you. Not without an appropriate firearm and light sleeping dog. I stayed at the Motel 8. Nice place and safe. But I envy you guys that can do this with no concern.

It is my favorite drive in all of America, so it most definitely needs to be done on the motorcycle! Great content, Sterling! I'm very much enjoying this series and it's neat to live vicariously though you since I only just started riding dual sport this August. Thankfully, I live in an amazing place (Southern Utah), but the I'll have to scratch the itch of venturing out much further at some point in the near future.

I think the first time of riding there was 1982, and some of my best riding memories are right where you are standing. I`m envious!
