Mind blowing Himalayan trails, valleys, gorges & passes on my motorbike adventure Episode 9 

Yes they were very interesting how they hand crafted things. I wish I had asked about what it was like in winter, if the whole town get blanketed in deep snow. Thanks for watching.

It's great to hear you are enjoying the series Neil. I find life is pretty damn good, I don't need to add drama to it. Also a place like this makes it exciting as you never know whats around the next bend of over the next pass. Thanks for the continued support.

I wrote this on another channel, in reply to someone saying he doesn't understand the obsession about Itchy Boots. ​@elwood62 I agree with you on itchy boots & I've watched around 30mins of her in total. She was the first vlogger & female doing the real long distance adventure stuff & because of that she was highly publicised around the world. From then on has become a worldwide name in adventure & motorbiking...just her name mentioned & newbies want to check in on her vlogs, be it for her, the bike she's riding or the adventure. She's not for me, because in my opinion her vlogs are poor, especially given the time she's been doing it. I see no attraction & I'm gobsmacked that millions do. Joe Ryan is doing the same as she does yet superior in my opinion, a likeable soft spoken guy, a photographer on an adventure bike showing us amazing sceneries & more... Yet because he's relatively new to it compared to I.B & a male, he's not grabbed the limelight/been given the exposure. If he was the first, there's no doubt he would have got huge publicity. He's the best at it, in my opinion & I love him taking us with him on his adventure travels.

It's great to hear you're enjoying more of the series, thanks for watching.

@@RanjanSkyline I agree!☝🏻

Yes definitely this one was different, when I was riding I was think how could I explain this, but there are just no words to capture the feeling of moving through these mountains on this day. It's always great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

So true. Just keeps getting better and better. Like fine wine

While riding that track I was think how on earth can I explain the feeling of riding through here and I just couldn't, there is no way to articulate it. So many different and unique landscape. It's great to hear you are still enjoying the series Cliff, as always thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, it's great to hear you're enjoying the series.

yes the bridges will come think and fast now. What out for a U-turn in the next episode, using the terrain to make it easier. As always thanks for watching.

haha. yes I was surprise the monk scrolling away. I hope you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching

@@freewayproject Loved it, also my dream to ride in that region

Exactly, I always see totally different things going back and well those Indian short cuts are a lot of fun to ride. It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, it's always great to hear you enjoyed the episode. Thanks for the continued support of watching.

haha I can hear Billy now. Thanks Pete, it's great to hear you enjoyed the episode and as always thanks for watching.

It is an incredible place and where ever you look there seems to be an incredible view. Thanks for watching

@@freewayproject $8 ...that's incredible!

C'est toujours agréable d'entendre que vous avez apprécié l'épisode, merci de l'avoir regardé

Yes it takes out all the jeopardy 😂, but did you notice, there was only a little light rain so I did need to put it on, it's always the way haha. I hope you enjoyed it , thanks for watching.

It's hard to get across the feeling riding through this section so I haven't tried, but it was pretty special. as always thanks for watching.

it does look like really hard slow work. If you noticed I rode past tents on the side of the road, that's where they sleep while doing that job.

It's great to hear you are enjoying the series, it is an amazing place to ride and explore. Yes to roam around is the best way to travel. I am doing a video at the end of the series which I'll go over what it's like traveling through the area for a first timer and what thinks I learnt and so information that might be helpful.

Thanks mate, it's great to hear you are enjoying the series, thanks for watching.

Not boring at all. Infact every corner throws up something different here.

I was going to try and explain what it was like riding along that track through those valleys and passes, but there is just no way to do explain it. Just one of those things that has to be experienced. Thanks for watching Geoff.

yes I'm always thinking what will I find around the next corner.

I think you're right, the mountain where it looked like it had exploded out of the ground was crazy looking. Thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, I try to do my best with the short amount of time I have to edit these. It's great to know you're enjoying the series, thanks for watching.

Yes there was a lot of stopping to take it all it. on one road so many incredible landscapes.

Yes it is definitely something you need to experience for yourself, standing amongst these giants. Thanks for watching.

@@freewayproject thanks for showing us. I'm trying to build my confidence for riding dirt tracks so watching you is helping me feel closer to riding them

It great to hear you enjoyed the episode, Yes Lamayurua was cool to see the moon landscape. Thanks for watching.

It definitely is an incredible place to ride and explore, the further I ride the mover amazing things I discover. Thanks for watching.

haha, oh I'll give you an bonus on top of that, for the part and labour it was $8 AUD. I think it has taken me longer in a drive through to get a burger haha. I hope you enjoyed it, thanks for watching.

haha, yes was not to baud. Oh so you're been to India judging from the paper work comment haha, they love a bit of paper work. It's always great to hear you enjoyed the episode Garth, thanks for watching.

I hope you enjoy the episode.

It is an incredible place to ride and explore, it great to hear you enjoyed the episode, I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, thanks for watching.

Oh i had no idea what the valley was like, I was as blown away as you. the planet is an amazing place as you say. Thanks as always for watching.

Yes when I think I have seen it all, I ride around another corner or into another valley and something new and unique blows me away. It's the trip that keeps on giving. As always thanks for watching.

It is an incredible place to ride and explore, it's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

Yes there was a moment when riding through there that I can not actually explain the feeling but it sounds like you know it too. thanks for watching

It is a stunning area to ride through and explore Colin, I was going to try and explain the feeling but I just couldn't put it into words, the footage is all I can do and even then it still feels it doesn't capture the experience. It 's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

It was an incredible ride along that track, so many different incredible things to see. As always Dave, thanks for watching

It was an incredible track to ride along, the mountains, the valleys everything was just other worldly. it's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

Oh I was surprise about that track too, I thought it was going to be sealed the whole way and a cool looking valley at the end, but it was so much more. I was going to try and explain what it felt like riding through there but there just aren't the words, it one of those things you have to experience. It great to hear you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, it's great to know you're enjoying the series.

@freewayproject Always Joe 👍 You're living my kinda life

Yes I didn't realise how many I took and I left a lot out of the end of this episode. Thos track had so many of the most incredible scenery I have ever seen. As always thanks for watching.

Thanks for the support mate, It's great to hear you have been enjoying the series. Thanks for watching

Thank you again for the support mate as always it is greatly appreciated. It was an incredible track to ride and explore on. it's great that things are opening up again, well if not the bike then the kayak sounds good, just being in the great outside in New Zealand is amazing.

I hope you enjoy this episode. thanks for the continued support.

It just gets better and better hear.

Yes so many different formations on the same track, it's an incredible place to explore. Thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, it's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, thanks for watching

oh new bike that's awesome, time to ride. Yes the guys at RE & UMI are great. It was an amazing track to ride through so many valleys and mountain passes. Thanks for watching.

Thanks as always mate. When I think I have seen everything I come around another corner or over the top of a pass and there is something stunningly unique to see, it is an amazing place. I am having an epic time exploring this incredible region.

Thanks mate, a big screen may help give a better perspective of how big the mountains are. It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

yes the water always seem to be running quite fast. Yes the last shot looks worse than it was, it to do with the lens on that camera being so wide. It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

Thanks Sean, it's always great to hear you enjoyed the episode and yes i think this one take the cake for best landscapes and fun Indian short cuts. thats for watching.

Well I am here to explore and take in the places people scenery, so going slower means the more I can take in. Also I have a dirt bike at home to go fast in the dirt when I want to do that kind of riding. It's great to hear you are enjoying the series, thanks for watching.

Thanks, it's always great to hear you enjoyed the episode. Yes the one thing that is hard to capture is the scale of everything here. Thanks for watching.

It was an incredible track to ride on so many unique stunning landscapes to ride through. It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching

Yes it is, I gather they would have started a just trails you navigated by foot, and may have used horses to carry supplies. Then someone has come along and said yep I think we can get a road in there, where everybody else probably looked at them with the expression "are you nuts" haha Thanks for watching.

Yes, imagine seeing that narrow gorge the first time and going, yer we can make that work. And yes such a short time to get the work done, you have to wait for winter then come back an repair any damage the winter had caused the continue on. As always thanks for watching Neil.

Yes it is stunning, like the vastness of the outback of Australia the barrenest has its own beauty. And just some of the formations of the rocks in the mountains is mind blowing. But next trip I'll look for somewhere with a rainforest 😁

@@freewayproject oh awesome! I cant wait for rainforest series lol

Thanks Mel, It was an incredible track to ride along so many unique landscapes. Thanks for watching.

It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

I am happy it got you out of a bad mood and in a good one. Being outside does that for me too. It's great to hear you enjoyed it, thanks for watching

well in my humble opinion that's a big YES, it is an incredible place to ride and explore. Thanks for watching

@@freewayproject Quick Q: Is this better than The Outback you have in Oz? Just asking..

@@ash9x9 I wouldn't say either was better, thy are totally different and unique, one give you a feeling of grandeur the other of vastness.

The Himalayas sure does keep delivering. Thanks for watching.

yes that definitely are mesmerising, the grandeur of the how place is incredible. I hope you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching.

@@freewayproject waiting for next and also do episode on himalyan 450 bike riding review. Ride Safe and enjoy.

haha, yer nothing here is near death, I mean maybe 30, 40 year ago it would have been a lot sketchier and a real adventure, now we are more just traveling through and exploring these incredibly beautiful places. Thanks for watching.

Thanks mate, it's great to hear you enjoyed the episode. I went through in August, apparently where I got to the guys there said it had been blocked for a week. My timing was just a bit off, but it was an incredible road to ride, as you know so many unique stunning landscapes along that route. Thanks for watching.

It's great to hear you enjoyed it Ralf, it was a bit longer but so much happened, so many interesting places and encounters. As always thanks for watching

Thanks mate, it's great to hear you are enjoying a few more of the episodes.

Thanks mate, there are a lot of restriction of drones in the area, there were no military in this section and long period between people so I thought it was safe to use. The drone is the only thing that kind of give a bit of sale to the place. As always thanks for watching.

Yes I never got that, sure show it once but after that it does not change so no need to show it or what you're riding. I am like you and want to see where people are riding and the scenery. Thanks for watching

That's great to hear, I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, thanks for watching.

well with no one around (I wouldn't be bother anyone) I thought I'd try a couple of things. It would be hard not to come away with a few good shots in that landscape.

@@freewayproject The effort you make to get these shots isn't lost on me either. Nice work.

it's hard to describe riding through that valley so I won't ever try, one of the best. It's great to hear you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching
