Hey mang, I heard you're unemployed.
You should give this guy your resume.
You already have plenty of experience, dodging grizzly bear cubs on your fazer.
BTW, he has the f650gs thumper, like you.....

That blew me away dude. Good God. Living that life would be like 100 dreams coming true all at once haha.
 
Haha nah. He's doing what I want to do. Adventure....but with a purpose....and in the most remote/amazing places. After I get life sorted and am comfortable, I've had a plan to do some kind of a long range charity ride of some sort. Because at least that way it's not just aimless drifting.

You had an adventure with a purpose. I read the ride report. You were going to California, purpose: to meet some friends; and you went via the most outrageous, out of the wayiest, never gonna make it on a Fizzeriest way you could find!

You just want a video this time... :D
 
hahah, alright alright.

But I mean take 3-4 months and venture out in "pursuit" of something. No idea what but something meaningful so that when it all does come together it becomes something truly life affirming.

Motorcycle adventure is to us today what being a lone horsemen was to people a thousand years ago. The same spirit that drove people to expand and push their boundaries can be enjoyed today still. That spirit is what brought our species together and has moved us forwards. Reclaiming that now can continue that same forward progress. That's not to say it wouldn't happen anyway, but there is something truly remarkable about going about it in the relatively primitive way of land-based motorized bicycle travel. We are in no way different than those that came before us.

Big motorbike trips are like taking your finger and making a stroke along a globe on a desk. The world is such a massive place yet simultaneously so very small. Just a rock hurtling through space with some dirt and rock on it.....might as well reach out and explore our backyard here. We are all we have. The sooner we realize that the sooner we understand how fundamental our similarities are and how monumentally retarded our differences are. Really grinds my gears sometimes. People on one side of this rock going on about other people on "their" rock.

haha, anyway:

I totally agree with you, Gurpee.

I need to get a more off road bike and it is ON! I am considering riding to New Foundland if I can this year. Wanna go?

This year I can't unfortunately. I'm only able to do 2-3 day trips into the mountains here.

Come out as far as the Rocky mountains up here and you're on!

New Foundland is quite nice though. Get that Super Ten you've been frothing at the mouth for and next year anything goes.
 
LOL! I love it.

Get a registered charity going.

"Support single mothers across America! Ride for mom!"

Leave the "strip club" info in the small print on the third page of the brochure haha.

Lone, I hear exactly what you're saying. My favorite movie is 'Long way around' followed closely by 'Long way down'. Epic movies, and had me drooling for a BMW Adventure bike.

The closest thing I've done to being 'Epic' was a 3 week white water canoe trip down the Nahanni River in the NWT. Lots of rapids, camping, and amazing hikes into the mountains. All of it in relatively untouched wilderness. It was awesome. But to do the same type of thing on a bike... :drool::drool:

Believe me... I hear ya :thumbup:
