Sedona on a Harley-Davidson │Down the Hwy 89A 

I really like this documentary style video instead of a “classic” motovlog....... thanks for sharing Matt , cheers from Mexico to all the cool guys at Laidlaw’s

It never amazes me after watching you on RU-vid or a podcast production I want to go ride and get that therapy. I’m late to the game but because of you and your crew last November I bought my first bagger at 50 years young . one of my goals is to come out to the west coast and meet all of you one day bucket list.

Im from Australia. In 2004 i did 89A from Prescott to Flagstaff. I remember it being an amazing journey for a 22 year old but i never appreciated how special this area truely is. As a 42 year old now i really want to go back and take this all in with older eyes. Thank you Matt for sharing this and bring back those wonderful memories

Lived in Arizona for 28 years, 21 in Prescott. Hit all 4 corners of Arizona, but the switchbacks around Prescott, ghost towns like Jerome, and the beautiful red rock of Sedona, taking Oak Creek Canyon to Flagstaff has got to be in the top rides ever! Btw, living there made Jerome a weekend favorite 😎

Bro, love that you included the history. It made the video feel more important

what a views ans what a brilliant roads up there. Fantastic video

Greetings from northern California good video Sedona is on my bucket list for sure.

Just upgraded from a 2000 road king to a 2015 ultra limited, we have a trip up through Scotland planned in a few weeks and I can't wait to feel the new bike on the long trips. Thanks Matt for all the info on Electra's etc and the Rushmore stuff, you're selling bikes to people 5000 miles away ha.

I'm up in Williams. Just ran 89 through Prescott

Excellent video, nothing like riding with mates..👍👍👍🇦🇺🍺🍻🍺

Another great video. Your videos make my long Canadian winter almost bearable. Thanks

I went to collage in Prescott and my classmates and I were ripping up those roads in ninjas and Interceptors back in the 80s…Now that we are all in our 60s, your video has inspired us to have a reunion ride on Harleys …Thanks!,,

After watching this video, I have a trip planned at the end of April, and I added 89A into the road trip plans. Thanks for continuing to raise awareness on how important it is to get out and see the world through the lenses of a motorcycle journey! ~ Ride Safe

So good! I enjoyed every minute. I’ll ride this over the upcoming summer. Thank you for taking the time to make and share this beautiful footage

It's now the Bullhead River Run. Last week of April if you guys aren't busy.

Sedona is a great place to visit, would love to live there! I have been there, twice, and my son is named Jerome after the nearby ghost town and former Arizona capitol of Jerome. Visiting those places again on my Harley is a dream that I hope will come true some day. Thanks for this great Video! Greez from Germany.

I rode through there last summer. Beautiful. I need to go actually spend time there some day

Great video, give that man an Oscar

Rode 89a in 2021 from Sedona to Flagstaff. Staying at Williams. Liked it so much went back the next day with my helmet cam and rode it again. The first day my gf was with me and I bought her a necklace from one of the native American vendors at that scenic stop. Great road!

Welcome to Arizona.

I agree the best to date. It was like watching a short film festival clip. Really enjoyed. Need to figure out how to go.

It's always great to be on Harley Davidson. It looks more awesome in group. Thanks and enjoy.

After living in AZ for 20 years, I am finally going to do that ride next month with my buddy from San DIego. We will start off in Lake Havasu City and ride to Topoc. From there we will take 66 as much as possible to Williams for the night. The next day we will ride to the Grand Canyon then work our way down 89 through Cameron into Flagstaff. From there 89a to Sedona and Jerome stopping in Prescott for the night. Day three we will ride to Quartzsite. We will split off in Quartzsite; he will ride back to San Diego and I'll ride to home in Havasu.

Best ride vids hands down. I like that you show each bikes details that are on the ride along with the personalities of rider and awesome cinematic shots of the ride itself. Well done my friend.

Your best road video to date. Really great content you’re creating Matt! Keep it up! I love your creative choices. Question for you, you’re tall but doesn’t look like you struggle with wind buffeting. You have no lowers or fork fangs. What shield do you use?

Thanks Matt ... Great video, shots, and script

When I came home from Iraq me young son Nate and I went out there. It was one of the most memorable of all our rides. The pine forests in Arizona are more precious than gold, and every memory of that is too. The 89 is a remnant of the old Pony Express trail. Arizona is incredible. It is as close to California as I have ever been too, one of the road signs indicated the Los Angeles exit… …I took a picture of it, probably not, but, maybe, someday.

This Laughlin Sedona Prescott and Flagstaff area is my stomping grounds. Great video. Wait till you go through Zion and explorer the north rim. It will also be epic.

Excellent. Worth your hard work. The casino stop was hilarious for us oldsters as we would have hit the pillows immediately. 89A is now a top priority for us. Just have to figure out the best routing from the Bay Area.

Shouldn't have watched this .... something just got added to my bucket list. Well done!

You missed your calling. What a wonderfully edited video of that majestic ride. Thanks for this.

Sedona , Jerome and the surrounding area is one of my favorite places i've been . 1st time i was there was 1966 , Sedona was just the main street with a dozen or so shops and a few houses on side streets . most recent time was 4 years ago , oh boy what a change ! still the most gorgeous scenery , spent three days there hiking the hills and shopping for Navajo jewelery . even ate at that pizza place ! and Jerome is interesting for sure . sadly i've never been there on a motorcycle . it's on the bucket list for sure . great trip , great video .

Another one for the big screen when I get home tonight. Thx Matt!

I lived in Sedona near bell rock for 2 years, sadly I didn’t get a motorcycle until I moved back to my home state of Wisconsin! I wish I could have rode oak creek canyon and Sedona on my bike now! Cheers

That was a great ride, video. Really enjoyed it. Next best thing to being there. Pan America would be my bike of choice in the blue with those paniers.

Another good adventure for the Laidlaw Crew.. I am headed for Laughlin next week going to hit part of old Route 66 through Oatman, Kingman and up to Seligman. Great area for riding.

Hi Matt from Kiewa, north east Victoria Australia. Just another fantastic video and one of the few places I've actually been to in the States. I was lucky enough to accompany my wife in August 2017 to a seminar in Phoenix and as she had to do all the work, I borrowed a Road King from Buddy Stubbs for 5 days and went out every day and explored. Now we know all about heat in Oz but nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing prepares you for the heat in AZ!!!!!! Travelled up the 17 from the city and the temp dropped to a much more reasonable 35 centigrade by the time I got to Lake Montezuma. Stunning scenery and friendly people (you try getting directions when you're lost in Phoenix - no one wanted to know till I got help from two lady police officers parked in their squad car) and a very laid-back experience. Brilliant !

What terrific video. If that doesn't make you want to ride, well it's obvious, you don't ride. Very cool video Matt.

As a creator of anything you want to know people enjoy what you’ve created. This is the 3rd time I’m watching this episode Matt. So well done. Love your camera view choices. Love your audio choices.

Love watching vids from other countries ,I’m out of action at present (fractured ankle)but looking forward as Spring has sprung here in Scotland ,Ps Laidlaw is a good Scottish name .Thanks Matt and Staff.

Love the 89A/89 ride. I will never tire of it.

What I like about your videos is that they look like something that would be on the discovery Channel or national geographic.

Rode 89A several times, great ride.

I lived in the Phoenix valley (Scottsdale and Fountain Hills) for over 15 years. We loved every minute of it. The motorcycling is epic. Be sure to make the run from Morenci to Alpine on US 191 in the eastern part of the state. Think 90 miles of Tail of the Dragon at 8000-9000 feet elevation with 100 mile vistas across the valley to the west.

What a great crew to ride with

89A is on my list. I love Arizona. I lived and road out west for 17 years. I should have spent some time in Sedona. I live in Florida so I will have to ride cross country.

That was awesome. Thank you for sharing this trip with us. Looking forward to your next adventure. Ride on!

I've ridden all that area a few times. You always see something new you didn't see on the previous run. The colors of the mountains is just breathtaking. Sunset is my favorite time to ride there.

Oak Creek Canyon 😎I’ve ridin all those roads, great riding

FREEDOM!!!!..........

My wife and I did the same route but the opposite way, left from Yuma Az up. Beautiful ride on a bike to-bad mine was in the garage back in Florida as we where in a rental. Best part of the trip was hands down the South Rim of the Grand Cannon. Thanks for the memories Matt.

Thanks Matt as always, for bringing us along on the ride. 89A is indeed one of the great motorcycle rides in the southwest. Much appreciated and keep up the great work.

Yep….I took that trip a few weeks ago as part of my AZ Bike Week and Lynard Skynard concert trip. I’m working on my videos as we speak but it will be nothing compared to yours. We went northbound on 89A from Scottsdale up to Flag then eventually home to Albuquerque

Excellent production as usual.

Great video, Matt, and thanks for coming out to AZ to film! There's some other awesome rides to the Canyon and down in Tuscon to the top of Mt. Lemmon and the Saguaro National Forest is an unbelievable ride as well.

On holiday from Scotland 10 years ago and I remember driving this road from Flagstaff to Sedona. Always thought it would be awesome to do on a bike.

Great video! Something special when you ride through Sedona. The closest to heaven, I am going to get!😂

Matt, glad you guys got to come and visit my new hometown. I moved from San Diego to Prescott a few years ago because the riding here is amazing. No matter which direction you choose, you're going to have a scenic adventure. What you guys missed on 89A are the incredible OHV trails. You can take your Pan Am from Jerome to Route 66 in Williams on OHV roads. Get the book "Ride the Arizona Backroads".

I love that ride

seems that good times were had by all, thanks for sharing! 👍

I miss Arizona so much

Yet another solid video Matt. Thanks for taking time out to capture it and sharing it with us all. 👍🏻🇦🇺

Hands down some of the best videos you will see on touring the country on 2 wheels! Some Awesome Riding! Enjoy the mixture of the bikes included in the video! Thanks for sharing And always safe travels👊🏼🤙🏼😎

The production quality of these videos is top notch, love the storytelling. Thanks for this!

Classic ride..less gambling more riding Matt lol..great content 👌

My work is close by to this road. I'll ride it after work sometimes. It's cool to see other people ride it for the first time. It's one of my favorite rides.

This really helped my winter Nyc blues. Thank you.

Love the transparency. John a true professional. Bless you mate for promoting great work and greater technicians and staff. 😳👍🏽

Great episode. My family and I drove that exact route in 2019 and coming from Australia, we were totally blown away!! Love your work Matt and Laidlaws crew!!!!

Dude you nailed 👌 great video 👉👍👈🖖

What a great video 👍 From Germany that are very far places, but absolutely worth to keep as a goal for the future. And great music on this video 😃👍

That was a GREAT RIDE !!! Awesome country for sure !!! THANKS FOR SHARING !!

Another Epic video Matt.Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful video as always these drone shots are truly amazing. I really enjoyed a bit of history you included in the video.

Loved when you said, to for fill lifetime goals in life..so, I gathered the #Laidlaw crew and headed east! shout out to all of the creW for Philadelphia, Pa for rocking out with Harley -Davidson's Mr.M@ #Laidlaw.. awesome video..inspired me to visit the west but on a new Harley-Davidson jiji yes! thx.ya'll...Ya'll killed it once aGain..

Fantastic video of an excellent ride. Great mix of bikes and scenery. Thanks for taking us along.

I grew up in Colorado. I've been to many of the places that you ride to. I love Sedona so much!!

Thanks again Matt and crew! Awesome video and 89A is now on the agenda for a future adventure.

I'm glad you guys made the trip when you did on the 40. That highway has been pothole Hell since January 2023. Borderline hazardous. Living in the Prescott area, I know it well. Stoked to see your trip through my backyard. Truly a beautiful area.

Soooo good. I’m more towards the east coast and haven’t ever went past Colorado. I’m looking forward this summer to riding through AZ/NM/NV etc etc. great video, keep two wheels down.

Excellent video as always Matt your choice of music is spot on it reminds me of the movie good the bad and the ugly with the whistling thanks for doing this

Great vid. Love the social part of it

Great job Matt! Thanks for taking us along.

Great video! Thanks for sharing the experience.

Thanks for sharing the beauty of my home State. Excellent production as always!

I live in AZ and the ride between Flagstaff and Prescott via Jerome is my favorite all day run. There are other awesome rides, but you chose well. I like to go through Sedona early in the morning to avoid the traffic and crowds.

🛑🛑 Great Video Matt. 😀👍 I wish I could have gone with you guys. Unfortunately here in Pennsylvania, Winter just won’t let go 🥶. We got 5 inches of snow just today, and more is anticipated tomorrow ❄️⛄️. Great to see you guys enjoy “the miles” as much as you guys enjoy “the destinations”. 👍

Another awesome vid. You need to nickname the guy who stuck his hand on the exhaust to get the vape battery "Asbestos Fingers."

This is the best video I have seen about road trips. The camera work was spectacular. I really need to plan a trip like this.

Another great ride video! Thank you for posting these, the frozen people up north like me are still dealing with freezing weather and snow storms on April 19th up here in Northern Minnesota. These videos giving me some hope for when i retire in 9.5 years and can move out of this area. God willing.

Sweet bikes!💯🦾🏍 Fun ride👍🏽 Love that Street Glide🔥 Thanks for sharing🇺🇸

Matt, you’ve made some really good videos, but this is next level stuff. I absolutely loved this video. It didn’t hurt that this route is one of my all time favorites. Excellent work man! Bravo!

One of the best videos yet! Looking forwards to getting out there one day

Another great video, thank you for sharing!

Awesome video Matt. Thanks.

I have said this in every video of yours, and it is always worth repeating: you guys have the best of all in the US (roads, scenery, nature, weather, etc.) to do rides like this. Can’t be beaten hands down. Therefore, nice video again. Really enjoyed watching it, just like all the other tour ones. Great choice of music also.

Matt, Love the content. Completely agree.

It’s always about the road that gets you there!

Great narration Matt, it was also nice to meet you a couple weeks ago at your dealership as we had a conversation by the CVO road glide

Hell yeah, Biking and brotherhood! Love it!!!!
