Beautiful video production. Lovely country. Ducati commercial. I understand....... but I maintain that Itchy Boots would have made it in 30 minutes after you. On her Honda CRF 350 with full gear. Eagerly looking around for a place to sleep and something to eat with a big dusty smile. Like it was nothing.
great short film, really well done, reminded me of a baja rally movie i watched years back, if i had a Ducati dealer closer to me i would have brought one 6 months ago.
Well done that was a awesome ride, ive never seen anyone ride down then turn strsight around and head back, with out a fuel stop haha. Awesome... i just brough a T7 . Maybe should have looked at the desert X . Unreal for a stock bike 😛 🏁
What a mammoth effort. Can't believe a Ducati achieved this, regardless of the skill & preparation of the rider. Utmost respect for your dedication & riding skills. I learned so much from you & always grateful
Having test ridden one on road for a couple of hundred kms, I love it. As an adventure tourer, if I was good enough to do serious dirt, this would be the bike to do it on. It was probably as comfortable as my stock Multistrada.
“Except for the helicopter film crew, the ground film crew, the drone operator, the chase truck and my personal physician, I’m going to be all alone” 😂 Epic video though. Well done. What a machine.
All that fit into 20mins, spaghetti 🍝 western and tribal beats, what more could you ask for, maybe a 1hr less paced feature would be in order for us vlogger addicts, great moovie mate, well done..
So ‘the racer in you wants more’ I’d say that’s a hint there are more awesome videos coming can’t wait! Well done to all involved Nick, the team, Ducati and the camera crew, just Fantastic!
Huge respect Nick. HUGE!! And why did it take so many years for you to get a camera crew to film you showing us mere mortals how good you really are on a bike? Or did you hide it from us on purpose?
excellent film Ducati! Just wish that air filter was a touch easier to access ;) This make me thing of a prior idea round the fact that why we don' t have a "big ADV" category for these long races. We all know the big bikes (1+ liter) could use a little race DNA to lighten things up for us weekend warriors that spend $$$ because we love ADV bikes. magnificent!
Awesome achievement mate! 👍 I have my 2023 DesertX fitted out the same way, but without the rear tank and Rally seat. It's been rock solid reliable for 4.2k miles in 4 months. This has been with summer temps in Texas exceeding 100 deg F. 🥵 My max time on the bike has been over six hours with a 20 minute break. Over half that ride was spent on the pegs. The DesertX is bonkers good when it comes to covering long miles on less then ideal surfaces. If the DesertX was around when I stopped riding back in the 90s, I wouldn't have stopped riding. Mine regularly gets run 15 MILES after the '0' pops up on the TFT. Haven't heard it miss once.
Very well done Nick, Alana and Jordi, what an incredible adventure. Well ridden, well captured and very well organised. Makes me want to get back out there…. Loved it👍👍
Well done, geez its not a flat track is it ,, iv got a Multistrada 950 enduro, im super keen to go into the desert next winter, im thinking of getting an x now..
