However, the journey takes an unexpected turn as I encounter a challenging section of the route and unfortunately end up crashing. This video captures the raw and unfiltered reality of adventure riding, showcasing both the highs and the lows of exploring the great outdoors on two wheels.
Through this vlog, I hope to share the excitement of off-road motorcycle exploration while also emphasizing the importance of safety and preparedness when embarking on such adventures.

Glad you’re ok. It’s the first drone flight I have seen from the jungle. Really a great flight showing the area. Now it’s 7 more days. What a downer! Oh well it is what it is.

    Yep ... we've all been there, dry slicks roads, caught out in the saddle, when the front wheel wants to climb pitching your center of gravity inside, but the bike goes straight and tucks. Usually later in the day when fatigue is becoming a factor. You walked away, so that's a solid win!

    Great stuff! Snake = “Danger Rope” lol Because of what you can do with the footage from the Insta 360, I’ve found it to be “better” (nothing is good, just better) than the GoPro at expressing how steep a trail is. The ability to rotate the point of view “inside the sphere” gives you more options at displaying the angles you’re facing.

    Man I started riding so far up on the tank all the time now when I'm off-road on my 890. I've got the Motoz Dual venture on the front and I'm running pretty low pressures around 30 psi. I've experienced much fewer almost washout situations. Don't know if it would have saved you obviously, just talking about what I'm doing to try to stay safer and on the bike and not on the ground. Yeah dude one of my biggest fears is falling and hitting something when I fall. Glad you didn't have that piece of wood going to your leg or something man puncture wounds are bad by yourself. I might stiffen up the rear end a little bit to put a little more weight on the front.
