Dave ,Ellyse, Woody and the ladies, looks like such a good fun ride, hilarious, a fair dinkum adventure. Great job all involved, epic! Very enjoyable viewing that's for sure, I kinda wish I was there too 😂 👏👌🤪👍😎🇦🇺
This was my first paid week-long trip and I have to say it surpassed all my previous trips - partly for the Top End country but mostly for the Ellwood Team’s smooth ability to draw along a group of varying ability, risk tolerance and endurance. There’s something personal about the Ellwood Team - they’re not just running you through a sausage-mill tour. They actually lean in and get to know each rider - provide break-out riding so you’re always riding at the edge of your own envelope - and at the end of each day welcome you into good food, drinks and time round the fire. The result …. Repeat business and tours booked out well into the next year!
Absolutely Awesome U go Women, totally epic stuff, just love bikes and Australia 🇦🇺🏳️🌈😲were the bikes hired, being mostly Suzukis? Wish I was there!!!! I ride a Yamaha Dt 175.
Thanks for the time an effort that has gone into making this video and hopefully it inspires more women to take part in adventure riding! Did you miss or would have liked to be on your FE501 on this trip vs the drz400?
Thank you. I prefer the Suzuki in that stuff. And remember it's going to get tougher. They are bullet proof in those conditions. I'll keep my 501 for trips with less water.
So does Suzuki sponsor this or do most of them prefer the DRz400's & I guess that's a Rally 300L with them..... I couldn't ride that tract w/o help.... lol, or should I say I'd try it with THEIR Help ? Just kidding but that's an impressive ride. peace
It's certainly a challenge full of tough spots & they've chosen an old favorite in the DRz400's. Since I'm looking at dual sport bikes, I must have seen something on this channel that got my attention. thanks, peace
Hey guys, I wasn't asking if you have sponsors..... No, not at all. I'm impressed w/ the place these folks rode thru & their choice of bikes. I'm saving right now for a dual sport & the DRz400, the DR, KLR, Honda 650L, 450L, Rally300L are all bikes I'm looking deeply into possibly buying. So I must have "subb'd up" to you based on one of your videos w/ any of these bikes or a comparison of them. I was impressed enough to subb & bookmark so you're sharing content that makes a difference to me >> > thanks for that & I'll be looking at your older stuff as well. peace
Nope. I regret not narrating it, because those that weren't comfortable had go arounds. Those filmed are still raving about their experience. This group is very professional.
Though women!!! Unless it was absolutely essential to ride above 100kph for extended stretches of pavement then to me it seems that these bikes were geared wrong. I prefer to give up top speeds on pavement to have more grunt off-road on my 2004 DRZ400S.
I disagree. I've ridden to the Dr's a fair bit and two the Cape twice. I think the standard gearing is spot on. To get through that deep sand you don't need a slow speed 1st or second.
