A few of my buddies are going to do NEBDR in mid June. We did MADBR last year because we watched your MABDR videos. Glad to hear plans for 2022. Looking forward for some great videos.
So incredible. That makes me feel really awesome. Thank you so much for the feedback and I am looking forward to those great videos myself...now I just have to shoot the damn things. ;-)
Don't apologize - do what you can, when you can - you've inspired many including myself because, "the adventure starts with you(us)"! Thank you for what you do!
Holy crap Wayne…that was awesome. Thank you very much for the kind words. My goals for this year are extensive and it is nice to see folks like you enjoying the work. I appreciate it and hope to do well this year for all the BGFG supporters.
@@BeGoneForGood I follow your channel since you bought the Africa Twin DCT. After a few months I bought the ATAS 2018 30th Aniversary DCT. A lot of fun till now. All the best. Greetings from Madeira Island - Portugal. Happy New Year.
I am new to the Channel but really enjoy the way you present topics and such. I want to be an adventure rider, but as you life gets in the way. As I don’t fully understand the CZcams world, I do understand some of your feelings. Projects or trips or something else hijacks the momentum and sometimes it takes a lot to get back on track. I see others persevere better, some worse. Okay……you said it, and I am not a professional weather forecaster or adventure rider. But given just the past 7 days, Colorado high country will not be passible until lat July next year. I live 30 minutes west of Colorado Springs, but been in the CS area for 20 years now. Although the high country started extremely dry and slow, they just made up for it. You can track the ski areas and see how much snow they are receiving as a gauge. Most of the areas just received 3-4 feet, and it is still snowing. Wolf Creek pass is on the verge of getting 8 feet in the past week with snow still falling. All of the sudden, the high country is on the verge of getting back to “normal” snowpack in a hurry. Bummer for us that want to recreate by riding the back country passes. Again, this is worth what you paid for it. Best wishes, you got this, and thanks for what you do!! Please check out the group Adventure Riders of Colorado on Facebook. There are members across the country sharing their adventure rides and such. Just a lot of like minded folks, like yourself.
Colorado BDR is great, New Mexico also, I live along the upper half and have done it several times nothing very crazy there (not like Utah), have not made the southern part but hopefully will.
Thanks for mentioning the FTA channel. I had never heard of him before. Awesome videos, really enjoying discovering other motorcycle creators. I greatly appreciate your honesty. Yours is one of my favorites and I look forward to what is next!
Oh man...Tim is one of the best. There is an honesty and stripped down element of his channel that is just perfection. He has incredible candor about how his trips affect him and it is just the sort of thing that really resonates with me, at least. Thank you so much for your feedback and I hope to keep you entertained in the new year. Cheers.
Looking forward to more of your videos, they're always well made and entertaining. At one point I thought you were maybe gone for good. Glad you're not! Bring on 2022!
Oh no...checking the obits for me were you? That is no good and I will have to make sure to be extra present this year so no one catches any more worry than they deserve. ;-) Thanks for the feedback and looking forward to 22.
Keep it up, unfortunately life gets in the way of the things we really want to do. I'm thinking of doing the Wyoming BDR this summer too. I lived in Laramie, WY for about three years and am super excited about the BDR.
Oh, that is awesome. Keep in touch as we put out updates and maybe we can do a meetup or something. Or maybe you can give us some intel about the route. ;-)
Welcome back, glad you are OK. Looking forward to 2022 and seeing what it brings. In response to one of your reasons for falling off on production for the channel, family might “get in the way” but it should always be a priority as it appears to be for you. If your family is behind you the rest will be OK.
Indeed. Sometimes it is hard to remember but I remind myself often that the tradeoff is 100% worth it. The time for MY plans will come but in the meantime, keeping up with the fam is a full time job. Thanks for the check in and hopefully we can finally get something worthwhile planned for next year. ;-)
I'm looking forward to seeing more videos from channel as I am brand new to adventure bike riding and moto camping . Also I'm getting a second motorcycle in 2022 my first adventure motorcycle. I have been riding now for 6 years but only on the street. I currently have a Yamaha fjr1300es now. I'm going to purchase a 2022 Kawasaki klr 650 .
Such a fun place for you right now and you find all the great new adventures out there. I was where you are just a short time ago so if you need anything at all, feel free to reach out. I don't have much to offer other than bad ideas and painful experiences but you are welcome to any of it. The KLR is a beast and you will be able to go ANYWHERE. Good luck.
AW! Thanks man!
I'm glad you're continuing to grow, that's awesome and well deserved!
Looking forward to seeing what 2022 brings for you! :)
We are discussing the possibility of tackling the WYBDR in mid to late July…you interested in joining us?

Sometimes life gets in the way. Is all good, a big 2022 planned! Happy New Year from NZ ( it’s already 2022 here ).
NZ, how's the new year shaping up so far? Anything you want to warn us about, stocks we should look for?
Thank you so much NZ. I can't wait to join you in 22. Thank you so much for the feedback and I look forward to a BIG year.
Always excited to see what you have to share. Be well.
Thanks 👍. Cannot wait to see how it comes out.
Hope to see more of you in 2022...Narrow your plans down and just do it:)
Focus focus focus...that has always been my issue.
Wait, 2021 is over?! Duuuuude where have I been? 😜happy new year bud can’t wait to see what you’ve got in store. Be well.
It did seem to go really fast didn't it? Maybe a little more time smelling roses (or freshly baked confections) would do me well for 22. ;-)
Congratulations on the growth of the channel. My numbers are not near yours... Lol.
All the best. Hope to see more videos on your channel on 2022.
It will come. This YT channel stuff is a GRIND for sure. I enjoy it but the results trail the work by a massive amount. Keep it up.

Until you discover crack and meth. Then you start to live your best life.
