Once upon a time, dirt roads were the only roads. In Wyoming there are more dirt roads than almost anywhere else, so Ari and Zack decided to step back in time. They found two vintage dual-sports, a 1975 Honda XL350 and a 1969 Yamaha DT-1, and tried to ride all the way from the eastern border Nebraska to the western border with Utah, without their tires touching pavement. The boys faced snow, wind, and mud for days, and at the end they came home with another epic Common Tread XP adventure.

    I have literally never seen a dirt road in my country or around the EU where you could drive on with a motorcycle. It's always rangers only, or on foot, or maaaaybe horse. That's it. Never a motorcycle. Reason i bought a street bike. Because the cheap dirt bike to practice on, would not be able to be used around here.Unless of you pay for a slot on a dirt rally parcour. So i would say, dirt roads to ride on are already extinct in some countries :( Sad, cuz you guys make it seem fun to do as a trip with buddies :p

    I love American idiocy Back in 1977, the 6th-best vehicle in the very first Dakar Rally (and 3rd in motorbikes) was some complete amateur using a Honda XL 250S with a custom bigger fuel tank and radiator but you think that spending a weekend to do 500 miles in Wyoming on a 350cc is a challenge. Some of the stages in that Dakar Rally included 2-day efforts of over 1400 miles.

    There are a lot of big-network “reality” shows that could learn a thing or two from CTXP. No hokey, contrived plot devices; no moronic, manufactured “drama” - just genuine, highly entertaining, beautifully shot, intelligent content. Zack and Ari get a lot of the credit, of course, but Director Spenser Robert and the rest of the production crew should be equally proud. Your stuff is a master class.

    That brought back some memories from the early 1970s. I was in the U.S. Air Force when I bought my NEW Honda XL350 which looked the same, except for a blue and silver tank; and another airman I was friends with bought a new Yamaha DT-1 250cc just like in the video. We were stationed at a base in Georgia, and we would love woods riding and fire road racing on the red clay dirt. The sound track of the 4 stroke Honda with the 2 stroke Yamaha was very familiar. I eventually built my XL350 to be a clone of the XL350 motor in the XL350 that won the 'Baja 1000' that year. The winning XL350 was built by Bill Bell at American Honda Racing. Bored and stroked to 449cc, 12:1 compression, needle bearing cam, and much more. It was a beast after the upgrades.

    I watched this for a second time (11 months later) and even watched the rebuild of that DT-1 several months after the trip. My 1st "real" bike was that same model DT-1 on the back trails thru the woods and power lines of Alabama. I can attest 1st hand to its legendary durability. This video brought back a lot of memories/nostalgia..... and made me very proud of the bikes, and you guys for doing such a crazy ride. Made me feel 14 again! LOL. Good on you guys! Thanks for the flash-back.

    My first bike was a XL350 inherited from Dad. It was billiant old chook chaser and I rode it all over the bottom half of South Australia. You had to take the back roads 'cause it wouldn't do highway speeds even laying on the tank. That view of a dirt road over the bars with the skinny little tank is pure nostalgia.

I can't remember what year it was, but it was identical to the one in this film. What a great bike except for the Autolube system. Pulled that crap and mixed my own gas, it was a runner after that.

    I was born and raised in Wyoming and experienced all of the fun stuff you guys went through on this adventure. It’s always something in Wyoming, if not the mud you experienced, it’s relentless wind, or extreme cold and snow. There’s like a week or two during the summer where conditions are perfect for an adventure like this, usually. Now I live in Washington.

    I had one that was red and black also. I still love the black and red colors on a motorcycle because of my girl. I grew up in eastern South Dakota and rode many times with my dad and family to the Black Hill and beyond. When my girl finally gave up the ghost she had 37,000 miles on her and she was completely used up. My heart actually hurt for the past and that motorcycle. After the XL I got an XL350R that only lasted 24,000 miles.

The alaska episode was spectacular in the same regard that this was; i really like this series of adventures on vintage bikes. The chemistry between you two is so so so good.

It always starts in a few kicks. My kids will probably be riding that thing in a handful of years. Hopefully I can go through it with a fine toothed comb soon and it'll go for another 40 years

After 8 years of fun my ridding buddy told me "don't worry, that would make a great bike for doing hare scrambles". 2 weeks before the race I upgraded to a IT 250 and began the long journey on many dirtbikes. Fantastic video guys, anyone who watched to the end thought nothing of all the corny stuff you were doing, we've all been there.
