Man, As someone that's broken his back while on 2 wheels I can see in Alex's eyes exactly what he's feeling. That being said, I was not in a remote location but I refused to believe I was seriously injured and I pushed on as long as I could. It actually made me uncomfortable to see. I know exactly how he's feeling and the slow and ever building realization through increased pain and the depression of realizing whats happened as the fog of denial lifts, is like a bad dream. The pain seemed to last 10+ years.

another truly memorable video! Keep showing the next generation the right way!... Riding into the pub at the end, brought me STRAIGHT back to terrafirma 4. A REAL movie. But thanks again for the EPIC piece of GOLD

Fantastic guys, what an adventure. Great video and editing, I've done the trip from Brisbane to Birdsville and conquered big red on my XR650L, off to Lightning Ridge this year. Keep up the awesome adventures

I enjoyed every minute of that. I'm 60 and ride off road most days, and hope to carry on for at least another 20 years.

Nice to see this adventure again in the new format! Tanks Dave :)

Excellent video. Great videography, audio, and commentary. Very enjoyable and entertaining. It is a story well told with suspense, tragedy, and humor. Thanks for sharing.

I tell you, Any group worth being a part of, Always has a nugget. I would say i'm the nugget of my group and that would have been very true in my younger years but these days, we worked in a younger nugget. My bones ache and my patience has been thinning, unlike my waist.

I'm always surprised at how many set out for the Simpson without good sand tires and a bit more practice with the bike loaded up heavy. I crossed it back in 74~75 i think with my Dad in a Nissan Patrol 4X4. We didn't run into anybody until Poppels Corner. The old French line looks like a track down to the beach it must be taking a load of traffic now.

Relatively new follower of your channel. Holy goldmine, Batman. Question for you - was this trip before the Hay River Desert trip? The one with John on the RR CB500X? I feel like you can really see that the skill of some of the riders have come along way, assuming that it is. Thanks again!! These are incredible!!

Awesome!! Wish I can do it someday...

Awesome video....i feel like there was more. The video cut off after the build? Thanks for sharing the dunes reminded me of the sand dunes in southern California Glamis. I probably wouldn't ride my tiger 800 across them but my Drz400 did well out there. I think we should give Nugget a handicap for the tail section. His bike looked to be the oldest most experienced so i say unassisted🤣

Those flies would have done me in.

Another Great ADVENTURE with a STELLAR Cast!

Great Work on the trip. I heard it to often not to comment. It's not 4000km from Sydney to Alice Springs, only 2700km by road.

Thanks - just a little reminder stay off the political stuff and your comments will remain. I get a tad irritated with Yankies telling us how bad our country is. 35,000 people each year die to gun violence in the US. We love our gun laws coz it saves lives.

We did the exact ride about 20yrs ago unassisted on a dt175 and a kdx175..both unregistered (young and dumb), took us 5 weeks from Melbourne, up to Alice, doing the Simpson, then onto Sydney and back to Melbourne again, the ONLY issue we had was a nut came undone in the kdx gearbox which we sorted with Loctite, a hammer and screwdriver to do up the nut , that was it, no other issues, ill be doing it again in 2022 on the tenere 700...cant wait...
