Blown away by all the comments and show of support for my films, so thank you everyone. This was a tough one as you can probably tell but I'm just grateful to be able to bring these productions to life and inspire people to ride. The comments are coming in thick and fast, I do try and read them all so please know your connection with me is felt. To answer the number one question that seems to baffle people ... Yes, I travelled alone on this project so 100% I did all the filming myself. I carry a small DSLR, drone and laptop/hard drives in my backpack. The drone shots are the most difficult and time consuming as it sometimes takes multiple attempts to keep the tracking locked on me, made all the more tricky adjusting the controller on the fly which is attached to my handlebars during the scenes. If you watch to the end of the video, there is the option to become a member and watch 'Preparing The Warhorse' where I show my whole kit and set up for this production. Thanks again for the support ... Adam

"it's not an adventure unless you're pissing in the radiator". Pure gold 😂

I've ridden 50 years and all over the world. Your movie is 5 star.🙂

"Who really does have the luxury of time? We've Just got to take the opportunity we've got, and go for it" wise words by a wise man! Your movies are absolutely sensational mate, and very powerful. Love your work.

"I am a motorcycle rider..." I am too, for over 45 years now. You have captured the essence of what riding is to me and others. It is sun and rain and being uncomfortable. It is sun and wind and the unknown. I leave next year for 2 years on my bike. I will hurt, I will suffer, I will risk. Thank you Adam. From a place deep inside me, I send you my deepest respect and admiration.

This is a masterpiece, rooted in wisdom and capturing how humbling exposure to nature really is. No doubt this will inspire countless people to pursue adventures of their own.

This was a total random recommendation by KZread and it’s probably one of the very first (and few) that made me genuinely happy. What a story, what an emotional bond. I totally understand the passion and the link between man and machine. I tell you right now, this video really made me want to get a licence and get something of a small adventure bike and just… ride. All the best to you, sir. Thanks for one of the best videos I’ve ever seen

It is fascinating how when you say to people you want to ride a bike all they keep saying to you are negatives but rarely who says if it will bring you happiness do it, i am tiered of explaining to people that it is not an death sentence. This is what I will do one day no matter what people say to me. Rarely who thinks about riding like this, rarely who will imagien all the scenaries, rarely who will think about life on two wheels like this. This inspired me to go and get that licences as soon as I can what will be at the end of next year. Stay safe on road all of you riders!

What a true motorcycle adventure it is. I loved watching it. It is so satisfying to see this 30 year old Africa Twin doing it great.

Just found this in these depressing times when we all seek a little ray of sunlight you lifted my spirits .. the story the camerawork and the narration is so fantastic you had us all there with you. The rebirth of a forgotten machine the journey and the reminder to grab yourself 2 handfuls of life is awe inspiring and you should never stop making videos because we're all traveling with you.

I started watching and before I knew it 30 minutes flew by. Simply the best motovlog I’ve seen. You’ve inspired me to get out there…regardless of what bike I have.

This is epic. I'm just 11 minutes in...but the narration, promise of adventure, the hospitality of your countrymen. Just fantastic. Shame about the weather, but as you said "Who has the luxury of time?"

My god what a hell of a story and excellent video. Being from Nordic decent and having a grandfather from the Lapland, I felt a connection. I was in awe of your tenacity to push forward even during days of rain and cold. Bloody good job mate. You touched my heart. Much respect.

I remember the engine sound of xrv750. I lost it 19 years ago trying to pass a landmachine that suddenly turned to Cross the street. I survived. Two years later a cat slowly crossed the street and seconds later an „elk“ suddenly came out to Cross the street, too. I was asking myself what they „wanted to say to me“. It was the time my mother had died. Adventure is being with nature. And I like that. But there is also something „more“. Sometimes some Kind of mystics. We should never forget that our life is limited and that life and the Beauty of the nature is the greatest gift.

You’re a legend Adam 👍 incredible ambassador for motorcycling & Aus

Hello riding brother, it was great watching you suffer in the rain and cold as I did there this year! I loved your footage, especially the drone footage ( which I don’t have ) and your story. We rode a LOT of the same routs … Lower Norway TET, Sweden TET, Lapland, Norcap, Lofoten, Trolstein ect…I spent a month exploring there as it is my heritage and covered all of it, Noth to South, East to West. It was a cold wet summer in the land of tunnels and waterfalls but what an adventure Rosiluke ( 790 Adventure R ) and i had there in the North.

Someday I’ll loose the battle for sanity. I hear her calling for so long and it’s so hard to withstand. I felt it since you lifted the cover, that bike is magic to me. The day I can afford it, society won’t see me for long time. Spent 40k soloing on a 30 years old XTZ, we had real adventures. I know all her sounds and vibrations (there’s lots and heavy ones ;) and I love her, too. But she knows that deep desire, that magnetism, that magic inside me belongs to that mechanical masterpiece. Until then I‘m happy that I’m not alone and you take good care of her, take her out and feed that soul good time. Thank you and thank you for let me feel that way ❤

To be honest I just fell in love with your Videos. It´s like an addiction. I had no goals in live, till now. Doing such a tour across some countries, purely enjoying nature has become my point one I want to do in live. There is so much inspiration and espacially so much spirit in this videos. It´s always a very very very good day, if there is a new video of yours. It´s really like love. My heart is pounding and I am enjoying the time so much. The way you got the Africa Twin and have done all that stuff you normally do with way more modern bike with this old lady is just amazing. Appreciate the work! Thank you for sharing this with us! Thank you for the spirit! Thank you for being yourself! Love it, would do the same if I can.
