- I know a lot of you loved the views from this trip so here is another pass called the Susten Pass - now my favourite for a chilled ride and nothing but beauty here. Over the dark winter you guys can plan a trip here - if you live in the EU, its a must do.

You know a place is amazing when it makes you run out of adjectives. Scenery so good it turned you into Baron von Humble.
Absolutely Breathtaking, thank you for taking us along.😊
Beautiful roads - fantastic views - Mountains and Snow - so much different from West Oz. Bloody great mate.
The flat twin chuffing effortlessly...
through unmatched Alpine scenery. I very much enjoyed.
Thnx, SteveSoCal
You've completely sold the idea of going here to me - top of the bucket list now! Can't even begin to imagine what it's like to experience first hand.
BEAUTIFUL !! You really know how to enjoy the ride.A BIG SMILE on your face all the way.!
I laughed so hard for some reason when the riding buddy goes YEAH!!! When he asks "d'ya wanna carry on?"
Whether road or enduro it has got to be some of the best riding in the world.....I'm lucky enough to frequent the Italian alps alot and it never fails to blow me away... great vid Baron...Ride Safe
i love how i just watched a crazy vlog from do it with dan with racing and stuff and now im watching a calm cruising video from the baron it really works out quite nice

My new favourite video, simply stunning
nice vid,glad to hear someone else blown away by it,fantastic place -safe riding mate
Baron, in July my better half and I did pretty much same passes as you two now, just with a car (this time...)- even that was breathtaking... And now watching your videos all the memories are coming back- definitely will go back, hopefully by bike next time... Or the one after that... Highly recommended route for vacation to everybody...
Haha, such an enthused and genuine "YEAH!" at 6:39 . I have to make it to the alps soon!
Thank you for this wonderful series of Alps videos! I so want to go back after watching these vids! Keep up the good work!
I've done this lots of times now and I'm still blown away by it each time I go.
Thanks for every time that you share these wondeful journeys. The rides, unto themselves, are amazing, but when you throw in the BvG musings........jolly good stuff!
Yes very beautiful place in Switzerland and so awesome video Baron,
Simply brilliant. Those views would leave me speechless
Totally awesome scenery Baron! It is definitely on my Bucket List to ride over there after seeing your videos from there!
Wow. If it wasn't for cameras made to be fitted onto motorcycles I'd probably sleep when I come home from work but the passion is way to strong. Thank you for taking us on that little journey what a view
Just a beautiful view! Looking forward to get there myself.
Thx for sharing this.
Its not the air pressure keeping you from opening your panniers, its your feeble IT hands.

Loved the way you talked about just enjoying the ride. I like to ride fast doing some twistie roads but sometimes i get to some beautiful mountains and just go enjoying the view at slow pace.
The best lines in this vlog....
Barron: Should I carry on
Jo JO: YEAH (As loud as possible)......
I can see how words fail trying to describe a feeling for an experience like this, amazing Baron, I have to do this one day
I life about 1h away from this pass and this summer we went there to watch the sunrise!!! Please baron put this on your list. I'ts absolutly amazing ;)
Susten Pass immediately goes to top of Google searches! Wow bloody wowzers!
Nice ride Baron. This is also my favourite one. In the summer I try to go up there every day it's possible.
My best memory of my first trip to Switzerland in 2004 was the sustenpass I camped on it and spent a week on the stunning roads surrounding it :-) pure heaven
This video and what is seen is amazing, thanks for taking me with ya. Ride safe.
Love the channel content. We went up that when I was a kid, my dad was driving a Nissan Serena and a twin axle caravan. Was the best thing ever. There’s a road that goes out over the glacier and back in again. I’m going back one day and doing what you’re doing. Safe riding
Did this same journey about 10 years ago on the back of my dads R1150 GS when I was 12, such a beautiful place!
I remember loving this video the first time I saw it - now that I'm considering a 1200 gsa I felt I needed to leave a comment to entice you to relive this... that's my favorite part of filming rides... reliving the good ones... cheers!
Just breathtaking views... non-stop! I'm super envious of you, Mr. Grumble. :)
Baron, I get the same reaction you do whenever I'm in the mountains.... an 'ooooh' or an 'ahhhh' round every corner as the views get better and better!
Been there. Watching this from about 2 hours away, with summer breaking in and about to pick up my next bike. So excited.
I have seen many of yor trips to the alps, thank you for sharing with us 😃🤘🤘🤘
Ah another one of my favourite local passes. Glad you enjoyed it :)
My Mrs and I did a similar trip this July. Susten pass deffo a highlight. Go to Switzerland, enjoy the roads and the scenery..... then carry on into Austria if you don't want your pants pulled down for decent accommodation and food. Check out the Hantenjoch and the Grossglockner passes. Then take the Black Forest highway (b500) on your way back to Blighty (if you absolutely have to come back). Great video BvG!
Looks fabulous in many respects, definitely a place you can enjoy without having to ride hard. Good video!
Such amazing natural light - WOW.
Don't worry about that "lack of talking", Baron: that fact by itself speaks volumes. Just taking in the scenery and listening to the engine noise makes me all dreamy 😀
All is I can say is thank you for sharing this with us.
That is....OUTSTANDING!!!
I did a tour through these passes a few weeks before you guys did. Best experience of my entire life! These videos make me relive every moment, thanks for that. I get that dumbstruck feeling, every stop I could only say "Wow".
On the other side, Baron's got a JoJo sticker on his bike, I think things are getting pretty serious then ;)
Bloody phenomenal views! Looks like you had an insane trip!
Yes this was a beautiful ride through some stunning scenery. Sometimes it's hard to find the right superlative to describe the scene and that's alright which is exactly why you didn't need to entertain us with description at every turn. Good job and nice video.
Thanks to this video, we rode this pass on Monday 29th July 2019
What a road
Thank you for the inspiration
The Alps really are stunning during the sunny months. Lovely during winter too but that fresh mountain air during summer, just.. wow.
I rode a Honda CBX500 in Lanzarote last year and it completely changed my perception of riding. Hoping to trade in my sport bike next year for something like a GS or Tiger. So much more chilled out to ride, lovely position to sit in and ya don't feel pressured to get knee down on every corner. Had an absolute blast just cruising round the beautiful scenery.
These were my exact thoughts riding through the mountains in Scotland a few months ago, I actually slowed down to just cruise through them instead of nailing it through the corners
Gorgeous. I'll have to come by some of this on my way back from Italy.
The Susten is also my fav. Such a nice flow on both sides.
Who could dislike this video? Someone with the fear of beauty?

Incredible simply incredible, one day I must try this
I can smell the fresh air just by watching this.
Stunning views!
Beautiful scenery amazing roads .... Paradise
Wow that was just amazing. keep up the good work.
Fantastic sceneries!! I like that..
Really enjoyed watching this, must've been pretty epic
Mate - That. Was. EPIC!!! So fricken jealous you have that sort of stuff at your doorstep (well, so to speak). I have to fly half way around the world just to get there.. but one day.. I'm gonna do that.. Cheers!!
I must now make a Europe trip to do this. If you ever come state side There are a few stretches like that in Appalachians. I haven't been out to Rockies yet but you bet there are some out there too.
You have the same joy in your voice that I did when I did Skyline Dr.
i could watch stuff like this for hours goddamn
I really need to visit the Alps. Mountain riding is the best. Amazing scenery.
THANKS, MATE, VERY BEAUTIFUL, I CAN ONLY DREAM OF RIDING THERE.
Omg JoJo B, speechless , I asked a month ago when would you be meeting this amazing lady.. and bam! here she is with you in Swiss heaven. lol.
Hadn't checked in on you for a while, Just bought a GS.
Now I've got somewhere to go.
Great vid Son, plus your new bird is a bit of alright too 👊
oh europe... you don't get everything right... but videos like this are UNREAL. very, very nice
spaf- tacular and weeping from the eye... never gets old🤣
I love Switzerland and I love the Susten pass. I've been there 4 times now and actually visited again three weeks ago. it's such a beautiful country. I've ridden a big chunk of Europe now but I always seem to want to pass Switzerland. just last week I went on a second trip I went to the south of France, north of Spain, Andorra, Maritime Alps and back through Switzerland again (!) to go to the black Forrest in Germany. I recommend the swiss alps to everyone. car or bike, it doesn't matter. Go!
awesome! I've done the grimsel, and youre right the susten looks to be that much better. Who doesnt get that feeling of awe and amazement when surrounded with such beauty? It is emotional, if you feel nothing there seems to be something wrong with you.
It's funny how I live in Switzerland but only videos like this make me remind I actually live in a nice country.
Super! If you want to see rough mountains, go visit the Dolomites. And mount your camera on the left side. That's better when you drive on the right side of the road. Anyway, great movie!
I've literally just been up and down the Susten Pass earlier today, first solo tour on a bike and honestly wouldn't have even known this was here without this video so to cut the inspiration and all that soppy crap short... cheers! Also I still can't feel my arse from the ride down here! (Honda Fireblade by the way, I now understand why you are on a GS...)
Wow. On my bucket list for sure. Stunning
Barron if you ever read this, why don’t you take your GS down that green road you tried on the gixer a few years ago. I’ve watched and laughed at that video a few times. I know, revelling in your misery and all but damp that was a great video. Would be fun to see where it goes.
Cheers
I was down that way about a month ago, it's other worldly .... I need to be back there asap! Also did a two week trip to Norway in June which was awesome too , highly recommended ... All 5 of us on GS's naturally 😜
You should definitely take a look at the Gross Glockner in Austria. Went there this August. Loved it. We drove and stayed in the Carnic Alps for 3 Days. To be honest, I did not want to drive home.
I enjoy some twisty, hilly roads here in Australia, but Switzerland looks fabulous! Maybe one day.....
thanks to Baron for showing me such a beautiful part of the world. one which ill never be able to afford to go to lol but absolutley gorgeous
Going to research this one for next year, thanks for posting this, kind regards.
Just watching that made me feel relaxed!
Yes! My mum moved to Switzerland middle of this year. Turns out she is just an hours drive from this road. :D trip on the cards.
Beautiful scenery!
When feeling a little pissed off with living in England, I just pop this on for a bit, then pop on redtube for a bit, and alls ok with the world... for a bit.
What a stunning place
Awesome footage!
Looking good baron 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I just recently moved to Germany, Bavaria. Have lived in England for 10 years(and loved it) and before the big move(driving here via hired van) sold my bike.......let me tell you- i cannot wait for my new bike before next summer to go on the Alpine adventures( i can see some of the Bavarian and some of the Austrian Alps from my Balcony!!!!) ... just 5 more month of saving, just 5 more month O_O
This looks amazing. Looks like the perfect roads for my Indian Chief!
wow so epic. bucket list road for sure
I do want to thank you for stopping and sharing the views. I never seem to want to stop the flow of the road and the bike. Until I need fuel.
Only one thing.....WOW!!!
Hi from Italy :)
Going there. Next year. Really don't have any excuses anymore now. If not now, when? Thanks for showing me the light.
I'll be doing this trip next year, can't wait
Thanks for this, Baron; as someone who is not even remotely close to Switzerland (American) this is a real treat, and I agree with you; you could be on a scooter (gross) and still enjoy the roads there.
Also, I don't mean to be rude, but this is the first time I've seen "your woman" and well......hot damn you lucky bastard. I mean that in the nicest way possible, of course. A girl who likes to ride is just the dream!
Awesome. Might do this next year.
The first line you said just earned you a sub.
Amazing stuff!
So. Awesome. Yes. Must. Thank you.
