What a hard core day. My motto has always been that it’s not an adventure unless is starts or ends in the dark. You did both so that makes for an epic adventure! You showed some serious persistence to ride almost 24 hours and deal with all that you were dealt.

Am I the only one waiting for the grizzly bear to appear? LOL. Cool video. Looking forward to watching the series.

Its the mountain lions that im concerned with.

Awesome job I live in Pocatello I ride those trails weekly and for you to travel 170ish miles then conquer robbers is an impressive feat.

I'm in for the series ! Nice work on the riding, video editing and commentary.

I’m about 3/4 the way through day one, and I’ll watch them all. I didn’t know this was a thing. I started off thinking you were nuts starting at mid-night, and that this looked like a lot of fun. As your day went on and your 18 hours in with 5 hours to go, I’m thinking damn, good thing you did start at midnight, and this doesn’t look fun anymore. I can see how only a few people have completed it. I don’t think I’d have made it past day one. Enjoying watching you go

Great song list, well done...

1: watching and rooting for you big time all the way from little old England: YOU ARE A DAMN TROOPER sir, so are all who try this. 2: I cannot put into words how hard this must be mentally. 3: you are so lucky to have such a vast landscape to ride which leads me onto 4. 4: If i said i could imagine or comprehend how this must feel i would be lying, i have done long trips here on our island and we can get bad weather (most of the time hahahaa) and exposed terrain but the sheer area you are in is just unimaginable to people like me here. 5: what a shame they have stopped the event, what a shame. I know this is in the past but i am going to watch each episode and i truly hope you make it, i really do.

I can’t tell you how many times I was barfing in my mouth bro! Gnarly, epic, you’re a beast!

Love Idaho, I need to get back out there

Appreciate you taking the time to make these videos. We ride a lot of the area up through Day 7. Martin just added to damn many miles of trails in the last 5 years...

I was a little surprised to see you back. You must be a gluten for punishment, lol. As always, very entertaining and impressed with your personal fortitude. I was telling Shonky Productions about you carrying a chain saw and gave him a link to your set up in v1 of last year.

This is just amazing Brian. What an epic journey and this is so well done I am just blown away brother. RESPECT

Epic effort! just finished watching first day and looking forward to watching others.

What a day!!!!! Congratulations. Nice riding, nice editing and storytelling. Enjoyed watching this very much.

So pumped for this series! Great surprise to wake up to today!

I'm so glad you're back for a 2023 trip! I loved your 2022 videos, they're so inspiring, one day soon I'll start chipping away at the tour. Does anyone make roadbooks for these trails yet?

Hi, no roadbooks available.

Brian, you are a true adventurer! Thank you for bringing us along with you! I’m bummer we didn’t make it to the end, but I never regret trying.

I loved your series last year in your attempt. It was a bummer it got cut short. Really excited to watch this years attempt.

😁looks most challenging and yet such great scenery.

Husky bike but not a husky chainsaw? Blasphemy. Seriously hardcore adventure dude thanks for sharing this!

Damn Brian, you're an animal! looking forward to catching up on the rest of the series.

Awesome job editing these! I’m still trying to put together our footage from 2023, but I don’t have your video skills… You were just ahead of us last year, team “That’s what she said”. I loved your ‘22 videos and I’m loving this one so far! Such an epic adventure, and as a Soloist you have my utmost respect, finishing or not!

Great video, one of the best I’ve seen. Great music as well. I think of the TOI most days. #80 Team Coleman Stove

Good on ya for givin the tour another go.. I watched your last videos and felt bad for you having to pull out.. I'm rooting for you to complete it this time.. Good luck.. I'm super bummed to hear that the tour is over.. I've dreamed about riding that one!!

Great editing, although I am not the least bit interested in doing anything like this, your hard work is appreciated….

Awesome series. I’m looking for alternative lighting to use when running my saw rack, what are you using ? Thanks

The lights are Diode Dynamics SSc1 Pro pods. with the "flood" lenses. extremely happy with these lights. they have worked flawless for 2 years now. On day 5 I go over them a little.

Hard core. Love it !

is it really non stop music and almost zero braaap ? there is a million ways to listen to music ...

There are a billion "braaap" videos out there.. this is not one one of them. sorry..

What a great video man. Congratulations on day 1, what a ball buster. I have so many questions but I’ll keep it to a minimum. 1) what kind of bike? 2) what kind of tank bag? 3) tires?

Thank you.. It is a 2017 FE350. I do a walk around in day five. I custom made the tank bag. Shinko 216 fat on the front. Tusk Recon hybrid 120 on the rear. Motoz, UHD natural rubber tubes.

Same bike I have. Now at least I know the bike is capable. Just need to work on my skills a little more. Wow, tubes huh?! I figured bibs for something this difficult. You are an inspiration sir. Because of you I want to attempt this challenge. Not solo (at least not at first). About to watch your second installment. Great editing by the way.

I'm downloading the whole series! I really enjoyed the last attempt docuseries! Are you on a 350?

I already owned the bike. But the 350 is a great combination of weight and power.

What tank bag are you using? Great video! Why is this the last official TOI?

@briangoss

That's a custom tank bag I made myself. The organizer of the event decided 20 years was enough and wanted to focus on other ventures.

Whats the dual Nav setup?

That looks terrible!
