About The Route & Film:
The CABDR-North expedition film features members of the BDR team and special guests from both BMW Motorrad USA and Zero Motorcycles as they take a first run on the all-new route, immersing themselves in Northern California's captivating blend of landscapes, terrain and history.
Starting in Mammoth Lakes, CA atop Minaret Vista, the 940-mile route traverses the Great Sierra Nevada Range's conifer forests, mountain meadows, and gentle slopes, concluding in the high desert of the Modoc Plateau just north of Alturas, CA at the Oregon border. Riders enjoy blissful forested two-tracks, tackle rugged canyon and mountain roads, and ascend peaks to fire lookouts with unparalleled, 360-degree views.
Highlights of the route include quaint towns nestled in the High Sierra's folds, with their historic inns dating back to the 1880s. Beyond the thrill of the twisty roads and scenic vistas, riders can delve into California history, discover relics of mining towns, and witness geological wonders.

Nicely done. The BDR organization is a treasure. Thanks for continuing to put out amazing routes that benefit riders everywhere. We owe you! Hope to ride NorCal this year.
Thank you, we appreciate the kind words. We can hardly wait for you to ride the route...you're going to have a blast!
Come on up, bud. Got a spare room you can stage from before we roll out 🍻
This summer I’m going from AZ to Maine, then all the way across Canada, then down to connect the WA/OR/and CA BDRs back to AZ. 18,000 miles can’t wait! Thanks BDR for all you do. 👍🏼
Will you be documenting your adventure, or leaving breadcrumbs. It would be great to follow your adventure.
MX to CA would be freakin amazing. Thank you guys!!
So amazing! No one has nailed it like BDR 👏
So appreciative of your support!
I see some familiar places already. Can't wait to ride it. Thanks to those who support BDR and those who designed this route.
Looks incredible! Lived in Northern California for 17 years and was waiting for this route. I'll have to get back again to ride it.
Madjack rides Mexico-Canada 2024 🤔🤔
Awesome work BDR team! Looks like a killer experience🤟🏼
We'd love to see it, Jack!
That’s sick ! Downieville area has some of the best riding out there !
I lived in Downieville. The riding around that area is epic!
@@bigj2345 for sure 🤙🏻
As a novice rider who has taken my fair share of spills on trails, it's re-assuring to see more experienced riders do the same. All it takes is a split second for things to get out from under you, there's not even time to react. This journey looked epic!
Sweet! Was already planning the retirement ride from Banff to the Mexican border on the Great Divide Ride, now I'll work my way back into BC on the BDR's!!!!!
I just bought a 2018 DR650 so I can do some BDR rides. Thank you for all of your work scouting these routes.
When do you think it will be released on CZcams , as much as I'd like to view in person it's not possible.
After the dealer film tour ends. Sometime in the middle of May!
Amazing! Looks like so much fun! Great job on the trailer! Getting excited
Greatly anticipated news!!!
Can’t wait for the full movie.
Tacos Y Motos will absolutely be doing a SoCal & NorCal BDR adventure episode in the future for sure!
Looks like another outstanding route! Nice work everyone!
I’ve ridden a lot of offroad in California, but this looks like a great set of connected routes. June looks like a good time to go.
Amazing i was just on your website and thinking why the hell does NorCal not have a BDR. I'm stoked for this!
Woo-Hoo! Really looking forward to this! And this will be my first BDR, which it sounds like the route is made for! Can you tell us where it begins?
Video description says it's starting in Mammoth Lakes
Looking forward to it!
Can't wait to see it. Done a few of the areas. They only get better.
The fire lookout scene is awesome!
Some familiar landscapes. Looking forward to it.
Motolicious!
Wow!! looks incredible
This looks great. I just got the SoCal old school map - fun planning some rides! NorCal also looks quite varied of course! Love Sterling’s work and editing, some falls are part of it too ha.
This is on the shortlist for our summer trip!
This looks epic! I can't wait to see the film!
Looks RAD❤😊
Can't wait to do this route, hopefully next year
Looking forward to spring!
Can't wait to do it on my Super Tenere! Looks awesome.
Outstanding
Pretty Awesome....epic as usual...Can't wait to see the whole thing!!!!
We can hardly wait for you to see the film and ride the route!
I'm not finding the video or map details on your website. I'm assuming it's a delayed. Hope it comes along soon. I'm excited for this one!
Awesome, I'll add this to this summers ride list. Hopefully it's doable in June
Isn't this supposed to be one of the "easier" BDR's? That looked like some pretty technical stuff to me! Looking forward to the route!
I didn’t see anything that looked overly difficult.
The "main route" is big bike friendly for a moderately skilled rider, while the optional "hero" sections offer some really fun challenges. You're going to love NorCal!
The two "Hero" sections I saw are the Sierra Buttes Lookout ( the Fire lookout they are on a the end.) and Mt Patterson. Both are in and outs, not Big bike friendly but doeable if you want to exert that much effort. Ive done both on FE350S wIth no issues. I might try the Buttes with the T7 but Mt Patterson is a no go for the T7...just not worth the challenge for me. There's a line where you are concentrating so much on the task that you can't look around and enjoy the scenery. It's more fun for me to enjoy the scenery along the way than struggle through the task and enjoy the begining , mid point stops and end.
@@Jroblet Yeah, I broke my leg on one of the OR-bDR hero routes on my T7. Would rather not repeat. Thanks for the input, I'll have to see if I can find footage of the Sierra Buttes route.
Where does the NorCal bar start/finish from?
Looks like a good one! Hope to ride it this year.
Rick from Atlantic Canada and I'm jealous!!! Can't wait to see the full movie and maybe one day I'll get out there with my new ATAS. :)
I have been waiting for the NorCal BDR! Whoo Hoo 🏍️🤠
Very excited and could be exiting Mexico at a time to make it all the way home to Canada on a BDR. New feats!!
Another beautifully presented trailer. 👌
A real teaser, now I can’t wait until 17th February.
We are stoked for you to.ride this route!
September this year for my friends and I :)
Wow!!! I did not know NorCal had all this.
19th of february and the full video still isn't out. Hoping all goes somoothly. Really excited to see this one. Goes right around where I am from.
Nice!! Can’t wait!!!
I'm pumped!! As I so happen to live in Northern CA!
BCA!!
This looks gorgeous. I look forward to riding the Northern California BDR as soon as New California secedes from Sacramento, LA, and San Francisco.
Guess we won't see you out there
@@FathomThisab - You guys have a great time without me. I loved the Mojave high desert in the 80's, when Joshua Tree was a national monument. Great memories but I can't go back so I'll camp in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona.
A month to get ready. Que workout montage complete with Eye of the Tiger music.
💪💪💪
Cannot wait!!!
Can’t wait!!
alot of these trails i know like the back of my hand, years riding ATV & SXS there, im at an awe these guys rode up patterson etc in a GS. If i didnt care to much about crashing my GS id risk it but na. good job guys
I’m game!
Hot Damn, this look EPIC!
Looks epic 🤘
11th of March And The Full Video Isn't Out Yet! Still waiting patiently but really hoping it comes out soon!
Its May now and its still not out and nobody from RideBDR is responding to questions asking when it will be out. Come one guys....what's taking so long? Upload it already!
May 16th they now announced! Finally...
Looks like it'll be a fun route!
Excited for you to ride it!
Looks really good. Will add to the list to investigate. Is it 4x4 friendly or any super narrow sections? Will have to look into it after we go back and finish the cabdr south. Got blocked by snow last winter in Death Valley. Thanks for putting it together! 👍 🛻 🏍️
30th of April, full video still not out yet. Losing hope. Maybe someday soon.
awesome. When will you do a British Columbia BDR?!
my home.
I watch the full video at CalMoto in Livermore CA, when is the video coming to CZcams?
May 16
When can I watch the whole Northern CA BDR film on CZcams?
😍🙌
When are you going to release the full video on CZcams, it’s not possible for me to attend one of the in person presentations. Would be great to know the CZcams release date, thanks!!!
After the dealer film tour ends. Sometime in the middle of May!
Awesome! Thanks@@RideBDR
Still waiting on the release......
It’s feb 17 why isn’t the video out yet ?
When will you release the Full NorCal BDR film on CZcams?
After the dealer film tour ends. Sometime in the middle of May!
Interested in how that Zero is handling it
This trailer says coming out 2/17. When will you release it?
So you guys gonna post the video or?
Where can we watch the full film?
CZcams, May 16
I saw Zero in the list of sponsors, were electric bikes part of this? If so, how did they do?
Yes. The trailer shows them riding the Zero DSR/X, I believe. It's the first one seen riding across the river around 1:42
Yes, Zero is one of the sponsors on this project and two riders were on Zero DSR-Xs. They had a blast on the route, check out the film starting February 17th to see them in action!
@@RideBDR curious about the lack of charging infrastructure in remote areas and if that had to be considered when planning the route
They probably had someone in a truck with a generator. Range on electric bikes is terrible.
👍🏻👍🏻
Why so little footage of the Zeros?
❣❣❣
Looks great, what time of year could someone attempt this?
In a normal snow year starting the route mid June might find snow in a few higher elevations. FYI we had record snowfall in the Sierra's and portions of the route were still blocked by snow in Mid July. In a low snow year about the earliest would be Mid May. You could ride until the first significant snowfall which is typically late October, but there is a section with a hard closure Nov 1st.
What look out summit mountain was this?
We’re can I get the map
What fire lookout is @1:27
Sierra buttes
Not only for bikes right? 😁
For the uneducated - why would one prefer a large bike to do a trip like this as opposed to a 500 enduro/dual sport?
The bigger bikes are better on the highways when riding from and to locations. I wont trailer to a location nor do i have the team or time to move the truck and trailer to the end of the BDR
Agree completely with this comment. 👍
Same reason one would take an SUV off road. Cause you can 😂. Looks like part of this trip is on Hwy 88. Amazing ride on the GS.
Mostly all the marketing? :) .. Realistically though, BDRs can vary in difficulty and how much pavement there is, so in some cases an adv is more than capable enough and more comfortable for some, and all but the absolute hardest are pretty easy even on a bigger adv with enough experience. I'd personally prefer something like a 690 or dr650 because riding a GS offroad to me feels like overlanding an F-350, even if it's doable it's less fun.
Mostly comfort. The smaller bikes will make the tougher sections easier, but not as easy to travel on.
This trailer seems focused on really difficult riding. I thought this was meant to be the most beginner-friendly BDR?
What looked really difficult? It’s a bunch of dirt roads. If you show up decent tires and some intelligence you’ll be fine. Don’t show up on some 50/50 garbage, get something with some knobs
The "main route" is big bike friendly for a moderately skilled rider, while the optional "hero" sections offer some really fun challenges. You're going to love NorCal!
@RideBDR I already love norcal! Although I'm more of a western-side of norcal dude. I guess this will be my opportunity to see the other side.
Probably not the "most beginner-friendly" BDR but we did try and make the main route doable as someone's first BDR as long as they had dirt skills on a big bike. We had record snowfall in the Sierra's last winter and unfortunately some of the "easier" sections have short sections that got washed out making them a bit more difficult from when we first scouted them. Regarding the Trailer...... makes for more interesting video :) But, there are miles and miles of blissful two-track on this route.
Riding behind the leader in the dirt, not fun.
