The official start of your journey begins just a few miles from the resort town of Mammoth Lakes atop Minaret Vista. Take in the incredible views and crisp mountain air, then choose your own adventure as the route splits. The first optional advanced section follows OHV trails through the largest Jeffrey Pine Forest in the world, which can be sandy with hidden roots underneath. Admire the scenic wonders of Mono Lake with its unique Tufa Spires. The northern portion meanders through the hills above Bodie, and if you like old mining towns, Bodie State Historic Park is worth exploring. Continuing toward the town of Bridgeport, the section ends with an epic two-track with views of Nevada and the Sweetwater Range.
Hello!
I'm Brady, AKA Mountainman, I've been a soldier, ski bum, police officer, government worker, photographer, and all around nomad. Now I travel on my motorcycle, make videos, and share them with the world. Along the way I do dumb stuff off road, camp, fly drones, take pictures, learn about culture and history and do my best to take you with me.
In early 2022 I set off on my motorcycle Yennefer (2021 Tenere 700) for an adventure with no set destination or timeline. Come along with me and let’s see what will happen as I try to ride until I can't.

I agree that the BDR film doesn’t seem representative of the Route experience one should expect. Nice to have your ride perspective. Looks beautiful.

Your comment concerning a BDR-X in Colorado is an interesting one. I'm in Reno and I can invision several BDR-X's spinning off the NorCal BDR, linking to the main route or not. I imagine things will evolve that way over time. THe Lost Coast in NorCal is a great candidate for an X. I looked at the NV BDR and realized they entirenly missed the Ruby Mountains, that's a fantastic candidate for a X. Maybe using the BDR main route the planners can go back and create several X routes all over the western states. Maybe the Ohwyee River is another great candidate, perhaps linking thru Hells Canyon. I'm thinking something like 1 or 2 day routes not unlike the Butler ADV maps, more of a contained route. You got me thinking. Great videos, appreciate your solo adventures, details and descriptions. I'm 72, new to ADV bikes but ridden mostly dirt all my life, did some desert racing 500 2tsin my 40's, and am seriously considering some solo moto camping rides, starting with X style loops through NorCal and northern Nevada. Keep up the good work.

I really enjoy your videos and I thank you for all your efforts. That said….If I had one wish, it would be for an option on RU-vid to mute background music 😉. Stay safe out there🤞

Man I was hoping to see you do the 2nd expert section around obsidian dome, the whoops are gigantic. Brother-in-law and I did the bdr from mammoth to Lee vining as a day trip. That was the best section.

@tbone11x wasn't worth the risk solo. Mt Patterson would have been fun to try too.
