    This is Epic Adam! Your videos are next level! Best in Australia for sure!! Question, do you think Rhino ( as you call it) will be ok for this terrain?

    Like the Warhorse, a Rhino would get through most of it ok but you'd honestly have to go pretty slow and suffer for hours in some of the sections. Also, you'd risk breaking most of the big twins in this terrain ... there's so much water erosion an g-outs that just appear at like 100kph. So glad I was on the 500EXC, had to wheelie a few deep square edges that would have likely snap the shaft drive clean out of a GS.

    @DaddyExplorerOz Wise decision if you're going solo. You'll be croc bait when the big GS traps you against the slimy boulders in most of those river crossings.

    Not sure what I can add that others haven't already commented on, other than showing my appreciation and support for Adam's channel by adding a comment for the sake of the KZread algorithm in addition to stating my appreciation for Adam's riding, videography, storytelling and endearing personality. I previously found it very difficult to justify the cost of these organised trips, but I get it now.Thank you Adam, for the smile you put on so many of our faces whilst we wait for an opportunity to head out on our next adventure. ps: the comments from some of the overseas commentators should remind us locals how lucky we are to have access to these wild, beautiful & untamed regions at our backdoor (Albeit a couple of thousand Kms away for some of us)

    Mate, you guys clearly know how lucky you are. It's another world and a modern day Wild West adventure. Growing up in Ireland on my mate's farm we had an old 1949 Norton 500, bald front tire, scrambling back tire and a seed bag filled with straw for a saddle. We thrashed the pants off the bike. A different time, no helmet and massive fun. Clearly we survived!!! Subsequently I have a 1978 Husqvarna 250cc, a 1982 Kawasaki XL250 in the UK and a 1982 Honda XL600r in Vietnam. The enjoyment these bikes have brought over the years never gets old even if I have, as I hit 60!

    Adam, your skills on the bike shine through with the effortless way you ride the powdery sand however you still show us that we can all make that decision with a wrong line choice such as the deep river crossing. But your concern for the group to succeed shines through with the way you help & inspire all participants. As always, the best Adventure motorcycle content on this platform; filming/editing, the journey and brought together with the great storytelling.
