Solo Motorcycle Camping MicroAdventure in the Mountains on a CB500X
Hey fellow adventurers! Here's my video about my Solo Motorcycle Camping MicroAdventure in the Mountains on a CB500X. I hope this inspires you to take a break and get out even for a short local adventure. This video was filmed in Angelus Oaks at Heartbar Campground in the San Bernardino Mountains of California. Enjoy!

Hey adventure friends! I hope you enjoyed this video about my recent solo microadventure into the mountains. I'm thankful that I have had the opportunity to take so many little trips so far this year. I hope this weekend will be a chance for you to break away and find some freedom on the bike or the trails or whatever you enjoy doing! Tell me about your micro adventures 😎
Micro adventures for the win! Such a beauty area to spend some time in. I can see why you were inspired by the cooking in my video 🤣👍🏻 Looking forward to your next Micro Adventure, stay well Jess.

I just added a skillet to my cookware so I can improve in that area. I usually just grab whatever from the fridge and then get mad at camp that I don’t have something better LOL. 😊
I love quick overnights. They make life much more fulfilling. Thank you for sharing this one.

It just takes a little bit of effort to do them and they are so worth it. Thank you for watching!
Our weather in the U.K. is pretty awful, so the only thing better than going camping here, is coming along for the ride with you

I liked it! Forest was very beautiful and that road at the end would be very fun to ride uphill. Thanks for sharing.

I came across your video while searching for reviews on the Honda 500 and found myself enjoy your micro adventure and lost focus on the bike 🤣 but I noticed your load is comparable to what I’m looking for, stay safe! I look forward to more of your videos!!
Definitely a nice way to break up the daily grind and monotony.

For sure! The desert temp was 104 yesterday, so I can see more trips this summer up there. Being from the PNW I prefer trees anyway. Thanks for coming along 😊
The shot of the moon through the trees, wow, enjoyed the micro adventure Jess!

I enjoyed that! It takes me over an hour to just get beyond big traffic. So I’m jealous of your locale. My micro adventures are in southern Missouri at the foot of the Ozarks.

Thank you Brad. Yes, since I moved out to the desert it has made some places more accessible for short adventures. I used to live in a place where I'd have to deal with hours of interstate travel and traffic in order to get somewhere nice and cool. Even though I don't like the desert heat, the tradeoff is worth it I guess. As always, I appreciate you watching.
You did a good job putting us right there along with you. I felt I was almost there. Nice job editing and with the great film work .👍Looks like a professional edit job. Your goal will be 25k subs in a year.

Thank you Kevin. When I first started KZread I secretly didn't want anyone to find my channel, now I'm asking for subs (which can be controversial) 😂. So I guess that's progress.

I was waiting for you to mention the book 😅 Have you not read Microadventures by Alastair Humphreys ?

Ha! I should have! Maybe next microadventure I'll include a nugget from the book. I have listened to the Audible version and a few of his podcast episodes. Definitely inspired me to think outside of the box when it comes to going on adventures. Also like how he loosely defines adventure. More than anything the book made me want to do some bikepacking.
Great places! We don't have that in Europe But on the other hand I am lucky to have at a distance of 2-300 km some of the most beautiful routes in Europe: Transfăgărășan (voted by Top gear the most beautiful road in the world) and Transalpina
