You sir, in so many ways, are a breath of fresh air. In the the midst of madness, you literally bring open perspectives. Thanks for the ride.

Well said.

Thanks a lot RSG. That was great , back in the early 70's, I owned the ranch at 35.20. Rt 133 was a dirt road when I bought it in1969. I ran sheep up there for many years.Great memories, thanks again.

These are the best trucking videos regarding camera angles, and, film quality. I watch these from the Uk and enjoy the way we get to see the scenery from a drivers perspective. Thanks.

Mc Clure Pass, one of my favorite passes in the West. Nice eastside view.

Thanks for the ride! It's been 31 years since I last drove over McClure Pass and got rained on in the McClure Campground.

Thank You very much for taking us with you on your travels around the USA! I love your videos!! 🤗

I'm in the shotgun seat today... love the scenery! I'm always in the middle in the back during snow storm. 😀😀😀 thanks for the ride.

Thanks for the trip. Beautiful country.

I LOVE it when you run the back roads through Colorado, memories memories thanks for the ride

Outstanding video , the river was like icing on the cake.

Denver is my birth place but my parents moved back to Arizona when I was still an infant so didn't get a chance to grow up in Colorado but looking at this video feels like I'm home. Thanks for letting us ride along with you.

Colorado is so beautiful, made it there for a few days before this covid started. Hope to get back up this summer.

Absolutely marvelous scenery, loved it. Thanx

This is different I like it I'm living vicariously through you .

Fun watching your videos. Paonia is my home. Very beautiful area. I drove down McClure pass one year mid Nov. while it was snowing, to visit family in MN. Had to put Jeep in 1st gear 4-wheel drive and creep very slowly the whole way down. Made it down fine. Such a beautiful drive.

Wow Wow Wow MMM this was great!! Big MT McClure!😱😅I repeat myself when I say Bessie is a smooth, quiet running semi!! I know your proud of your!! GET THAT BUG SPRAY ASAP, dude!!😱Take care of that knee!! Wrap it!!😅PEACE!!

Everythimg is so lush a green. That river's not only calling your name Mike, but it's also speaking your language. Thank you for the great view.

My favourite place in Colorado....Thank you❤️🇬🇧

One of your best yet.Thanks for the ride.Somerset,a county in the UK.👍👍🚛

Hey MMM, beautiful ride..thank you for the video..never a dull moment riding shotgun..until the next time..☮ peace ✌

We have also driven Idaho 95 from north of Boise to Grangeville then over Lolo Pass twice 1994 & 1997. 2018 we did Lewiston to Canada the first time I rode with you was on this Hwy. Nice to see these roads again just sitting here relaxing near Brisbane Australia.

I have taken this route several times. I once turned right at 27:34 to take the road back to Gunnison. Turns to dirt but it is an awesome drive. I didn't realize the coal mines at Paonia were as big as they were until I had been through there a couple times. You have inspired me to make the trip to Montrose and come home that way. Maybe the Vapor Caves are open. Nice walk down to river. Too bad you didn't to cast a line in.

Thank you for taking me across America because of new restrictions to access to healthcare system , I apparently have no say in anymore , the distance I can travel from home is limited . Yes I do know how lucky I am having healthcare at all with so many in need across America this saddens me . Thank you once again I appreciate the ride along .

I'm glad you decided to take this route. Especially from Paonia to the summit really is gorgeous. I do hope work brings you back through here in the winter. It must be lovely then. I'm enjoying learning just how beautiful a state Colorado is from you. Thanks!

PLEASE do a video of just fishing...seriously...would love to see this!!!

I didn't hear a thing ,hehe .... just here to ride shotgun and enjoy the scenery ... GORGEOUS !!!!! After yrs of watching you drive, you are one heck of a good driver...I think I could ride shotgun with you forever and even sleep a spell ....which I ride with nobody just for the record, everyone rides with me...lol even back in the day rode my own VW trike and even before that I was chauffeur at age 12.... Love to drive.... Thanks for sharing the river with us, Mountain Man... Take care....Peace

Good video MMM nice scenery peace!!!

So enjoyed it beautiful country

Wow ,great scenery.

Hi Mike I am an Aussie drove this road in 1997 with friends from Nebraska they had a Condo at Dillon. If some time you are in Montana in fall & can do it drive 93 from Missoula south over Lost Trail Pass into Idaho & following the Salmon River to Challis we have driven it 3 time 1976, 2013 & 2018. If it's a nice sunny day in Fall it is one of the best drives for scenery we have done of the driving 45,000 miles in America. Thanks for the ride Ian

Yeah Mike you can stick your four lane highways , then are the kind of roads I prefer travelling on, beautiful scenery. Cheers mate hope your knee isn't too much of a problem!!

What a beautiful ride. So much better than constantly traveling on the interstate highways.

I really enjoyed this video. This past fall I went over this pass. I had been visiting the San Juan Mountains and loved them! I stayed the night in Delta, then took McClure pass to Aspen before heading home to Utah. It was so nice to ride the route once again with you. I remembered every curve and sight.

Such pretty country. I'm jealous of you in a good way id love to be doing what you do . Thanks for the ride it's always a pleasure to ride shotgun. Keep safe out there Happy trails

Hi Mike: nice trip, enjoyed a lot. You load 16 tons and what do get....SAWDUST. It seems that the freight charges would bo more than the cargo is worth? Thank you for the ride. Edward

What can I say stunning 😍 , took another ride ... thankyou

Mike one of the best things about riding with you is that you take some of the country Highway in stead of just always taking the INTERSTATES. very interesting is you tell us what towns and some things your seeing makes for a good ride with You!

A very pleasant ride on a beautiful day. Your knee sounds sore, hope it is feeling better soon. Magnificent mountains and scenery. Great to have you back. ✌

I was so wondering how they were going to load sawdust. Thanks. I needed a little trip out of town. And you are right about that road. It’s begging for a stick.

Wow! Makes me want to head west again and find the less traveled roads! Went to Montana once and stayed at a B&B! The owners told us of the back roads where hardly any tourists go! They definitely led us to beautiful fairly secluded spots! This looks like a road I would love to travel someday! Oh, I'm a Chevy Silverado guy but I think someone spiked the water cooler in the design department for that new HD Silverado! Uggggly front end!

Thanks for showing some pretty country

Beautiful scenery! Enjoyed the ride! Watching your videos is just about like being on the road with you.

Im with you Mike on your travels , Its a great way to see the country

Wow just found this thanks for letting me ride along beautiful scenery

awesome video ! you actually passed my house right before you stopped to fish ! im in the dark brown log home right there at the fork on the right side going down on hwy 133 . have an incredible week !

Yes sir, they do mine Marble in Marble, Co. Beautiful Quarry in those mountains. Then they take the marble to the yard south of Delta Colorado on Highway 50. You drove by it. Colorado Stone Quarries. Great video!

Beautiful trip. Thankyou🤗

Beautiful ride. Thanks Mike.

Awesome ride, thanks for taking me along. Safe travels.

I appreciate you taking me back to Colorado. Grew up in Meeker, lived in junction when I got married. Parents now live in Montrose. Spent some time in Flagstaff, now live in Fernley Nv. Have run all over the country inbetween it's good seeing it I sure miss it. Thank you.

Njoyed that trip very much thanks mate even the little fishing stop stay safe now peace Jim from new Zealand

One of you best drives yet. Really enjoyed this one. Thanks.

Good day Mike,great run on R 133 .These routs you take on the less travaled road are the best videos .Hope your nee gets better soon . Peace .👍👍😊✌

Have a nice day Mike! Peace always be unto you as well!

Wonderful landscape

Thank you for sharing I like your videos

Last September we ate at El Tapatia in Delta. It was one of those days we were spending a little too much time touring, then couldn't find a place to stop as we were heading south towards Montrose. A friend suggested we eat there. A couple days later, we were headed north again towards Fort Collins, and took the 133. But of course we got delayed by construction. Got to just sit there high in the mountains for 20 minutes or so.

Beautiful, stunning views. Hope knee settles down. Horsey has plenty of grunt and glad she errs on side of caution to keep you safe.

Love watching your videos. And, thank you for the gorgeous views. My eyes are starved for color as I’m stuck in the dry, arid desert of Arizona. I can no longer travel, so I enjoy riding shotgun with you.

yes beautiful pass wow, a lot of turns but worth it for the view!

Thanks for another ride,beautiful country that we live in,never been to Utah so enjoyed the trip. Until the next ride stay safe.

thanks mike for the beautiful road trip an walk to the river, quality run! thank you!

Thanks for the video Mike top driving

Hey Mike, just another scenic tour of our beautiful state. Sometime you should take us down 141 from Grand Jct to Cortez through the Unaweep Canyon. Another fun run. Thanks for taking us with you. be safe.

Cripes that road up by Paionia [?] state park is like our roads here in NZ. We had a visitor from WA state "it's the only place I've driven where I see my own tail lights ahead of me." Of course referring to the windiness of the roads. Lots of mountain roads here. I love riding along. I suspect your knee problem is arthritis?? I had it and was surprised to find it was arth....A half knee job years later took care of it easily. Safe travels!

some beautiful country you travel through

Beautiful Route.

Beautiful ride today. Thank you and hope your knee eases. 😀

Hi Mike, hope your feeling better. This is a nice relaxing drive. Hope your family is doing well. Stay safe! PEACE!

Great video Mike thanks for the ride Stay safe out there.

Thank you for taking us with, hope your knee gets better scenery I just don't get to see Central California watching

Olathe Colorado is flat but the mountains always make me long for the fresh air and clean water it's famous for. Great driving with you as always 😆

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC are constructed of marble quarried of the marble from the Colorado Yule Marble quarry in the Crystal River valley near Marble, between Carbondale and Crested Butte.

Fantastic drive! I've made that trip a few times. Love it!!

Ya need to go down old Wolf Creek Pass... With the song playing! Dont forget to bash into the side of the feed store... in downtown Pagosa Springs!

From someone with two artificial knees --- ice your knee and then put on Aspercream lotion with lidocaine. Enjoyed the ride-along today.

I'd recommend you research Progressive Muscle Relaxation. It's the gradual tensing and relaxation of all of your muscle groups. I've got all sorts of back pain from both my right and left shoulders and my lower back. It has helped tremendously with my pain and even more with my stress.

You wouldn't be driving a semi if you had to artificial knees! I don't have to put anything on my 2 metal knees!

Beautiful place❤️

I had to take a screenshot of the upstream view of the mountains when you 1st got down to the river... that was too gorgeous not to save! I would kill to see that scenery everyday!

People should do three activities during Corona Virus Lockdown 1. Live in forests , jungles 2. Go on adventure 3. Long drives OR watch Long drive videos(that will give you relaxation & opens your mind )

The gimpy fishing expedition was the best part, you know, for a driving video.

Old cars and trucks waitin' for a restoration!🌄

Thanks for the ride👍

Beautiful country thru there. Great for motorcycle or sports car. Hope you are safe out there with all the crap going on.

Awesome videos Man
