A Ride to Catawba Falls Trailhead and Updates 

Don't forget to go to ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n5h-A2Tw1sM.html and click on the notification bell so we can watch the Premiere of the next series together. Sunday March 19 at noon EST. You can talk shit about me in real time right to my face!

I have a v85tt and really like it. I have have not done any off road only mild gravel and hard pack dirt roads and it does very well. Im not ready for anything tougher yet, it is a little on the heavy side. Maybe as i get more experience on it i will try, but its a great comfortable bike.

Tally-nooooo!

Would like to see the v85 when you ride it. The specs are awesome and a great looking bike. 360 in some areas is good.

Always great when a new SGR video pops up. A fun 30 minutes. 360 video? (Moderately and judiciously used)...it's a plus. Keep using it. 👍🏻

Ang- Tally-hooo! Is that annoying you yet? My wife from two rooms away- Yes.

The 360 camera stuff is great. I don't think I'd enjoy an entire hour + episode solely in that mode... But it's a positive addition to your multi-angle video style. Thanks for sharing!

To quote William Munny ...... "We all have it coming , kid." 🤔

Tally yes. Weed out the weak ones. Had a millitary friend I was in with had the same humor that you do. He ended up being the best friend I’ve ever had. He’s gone now. Not a battle thing but after he got out. Small part of why I watch your videos. Very small part but makes me laugh the way you see things. Tally ho will weed out the haters. I don’t care for it and that’s why you should keep it up? Idk. Either way let er eat. My himi got a new fuel pump early on and that’s it. Runs great. Starts in cold weather and idles. Maybe they just need a break in period. I’ve got over 2g on mine. Changed the back tire to a Dunlap trailmax mission. I like it so far.

Insta is so much better than GoPro. Nothing is perfect but I’ve never had an Insta simply shut off because it feels like it. The average lifespan in the US is 77 years. That would mean 10 more years for me. Why does the town of Old Fort have a giant butt plug as you enter the town? Catchphrase?😆 Tally who? Tally no.

In Canadia, health care system shoots you full of hemorrhoids for free, eh. You can ride up here and see for yourself when the snow goes away in June, eh.

Well..... this is the internet so...... I thought the 360 camera made the ride look like a late 90's video game 😀 .....and a buddy of mine has the V85TT and loves it!!! I think I'd rather have the Mandello.......

Like the 360 view, would be cool for when you say "look at that view", you could pan around and show it better. Freaky how that thing works. 7 years?...c'mon man, might be good to live like that but lets hope for more.

I like the 360 stuff, in moderation, and like you said, it can be overdone. Catching a subject, and following it, like a roadside attraction as you ride by, looks very cool on video. I don’t think I’ll get one, I hear about the added editing, not sure I’m up for that on a cheap computer.

Talley…NOOOO!

Hey some guy,,,tally hoooo is a big NO! You've got better. Do your homework on the v85tt. I was also in love until I started finding evidence that Moto Guzzi factory is really messed up and dealers won't tell dirty secrets! Have enjoyed your humor and honest rambling...never sure if you're crazy or really having a good time. Cool stuff regardless.

A (very) little 360 goes a long way. You're the filmmaker, but I guess I'd just ask, "What is this shot doing for my story?"

You're a weird internally conflicted dude and it cracks me up. I'd like to kick it with some bourbon and a smoke and share life philosophy with you.

360 is a yes, limited careful use, such as you have done in this video. It does add, when used judicially. Also, as a Raleigh resident, I am very jealous of the scenery so easily available in a quick ride.I rode yesterday and while enjoyable, not nearly as nice as western NC. You definitely can take a bigger bike on those routes. Just a different balance style. Can't wait to see the 5 day adventure for the test ride!

360 is good.

360 looks like a cartoon or video game not impressed

You talk too much

"Surgery" makes me think of the fourth Star Trek Movie...the crew goes back in time to 1984 where a crewmember gets hit by a car and taken to the hospital. Dr. Bones becomes hysterical and says to Captain Kirk, "Twentieth Century butchers!! Do you know what they'll do to him?? We've got to get him out of there!!"

I rather enjoy the conversations with ass. Um... I do believe I'd lose the tally hooooo! 360 is nice as a deviation, just don't over use it.

The 360 video is a tool. Use it when it makes sense.

LEEROY JENKINS!!! nah, it gets old in a hurry. 360 would be cool on the trail. Different camera angles keeps the entire yt vid interesting to me. I don't think you will find a perfect motorcycle. That is why we all own more than we should. I would just hate to wrestle with that much weight on trails and small roads. I had a HD that weighed in around 600 lbs. and it even got old just on street driving - trying to hold the thing up at stops, etc...just too much weight to wrestle and it will drain your energy. I would gladly give up some top end speed for something lighter and easier to muscle around when needed.

Wow, could share multiple thoughts here.. Many years after a shoulder injury in Army jump school, I finally went to a sports medicine orthopedic Dr. . Previous doctors all called it wrong.. I went from the steroid shots, to its in my head to I have a misrouted tendon.. Simple x ray showed I had a calcified bone like a sharks tooth stabbing into the joint.. Surgery removed about 1/2” of my collar bone and problem solved.., If you do have a surgery I would suggest a sports medicine Dr.. Now Moto Guzzi… I have a 1986 Daytona Lemans 1000 that I absolutely love.. Lots of power and was first bike with ABS.. I love the looks of their V twin but that makes it a bit quirky. On hard acceleration you will feel the bike torquing clockwise.. It is unique.. The engine longevity is amazing with a record of about 300,000 miles on one.. I would love to have the bike you are dreaming about as I am captivated by its design. But, I am 74 now and going the other direction in thinking about buying a Honda ADV 150..

Hey Angelo, the 360 View Camera adds some depth, I'd keep using it. Dude, Tally Ho from anyone else would be so obnoxious. I doubt you'll keep using it, but I swear it got funnier each time you did it. As usual, loved your philosophy, I only hope you have more than 7 years left! You've got me listening to Treadmill Trackstar, thank you for the collection. Richard

Hey Angelo... the audio on the 360 makes your Himi sound like a CT125. I liked the periodic view to the 360 and it is definitely a great addition if you're riding with other riders. I was impressed with the speed at which you went from "Tally Ho" to "Tally NO" in well under a second... incredible!:) Enjoyed the ride... I was Jonesing for more Ang. Gord

Just don't get a rider facing camera. There's nothing more annoying than the moto-vloggers who are constantly flipping back and forth between front facing and rider facing cameras.

Lol. Loved your reasoning on death being how the shoulder problem will go away. About the moto Guzzi... for big decisions I now ask myself: will I regret doing / not doing XYZ when I am very old, one day? That usually settles the score.
