I've lived in and around OKC my entire life. Thank you for the positive review. While I wouldn't describe my city as a "hot spot" necessarily, it has certainly made huge strides over the past twenty years to become more of a major city. It's done many things right (but OMG the traffic has gotten so insane).

I think it’ll be a hotspot by the end of this decade. Traffic has gotten fucking nuts compared to what it used to be but thankfully it’s still not as bad as Dallas or austin(for now). I live in Hollywood but have a house in the OKC suburbs and I always love being in the big town. Good video!

Traffic is fucked. I wish we would put more tax money into our road infrastructure. Would increase productivity in many ways but can only hope with how "red" our state is. It definitely has its perks like constitutional carry but the roads do suffer

It was pretty bad even 43 years ago when I lived in OKC. We called it ‘Zoom City’. I lived on the West side near Wiley Post Airport but had to commute to downtown where my office was on the top floor of the old City National bank tower.

Your choice of music is just so perfect to the different segments makes them so much appealing ;Just love it Lea. 🤠

Glad you like okc me and my friends grew up here, downtown is where we go to skate sometimes and just enjoy the views

Great episode. I’ve never been to OK City, but maybe I’ll go now. I’m glad you saw Chihuly’s work, which I like very much; my wife and I bought a piece about 10 yrs ago and think it’s beautiful. Also, I was interested by your enthusiastic entry into Texas. I’ve visited Texas several times and am always happiest when I get to leave. And, yes, Rt. 66 is iconic, but there isn’t much of the original scenery left, I’m afraid.

I'm from OKC and still here. Regarding Route 66's "original scenery"-- a few years ago, in the west central part of OKC (on the old Rt 66) was a huge "66 Bowl" markee in front of the bowling alley that had been there for decades. When the bowling alley went under, the sign was still up, but what happened? It was soon dismantled and the property was turned into an ethnic eatery that offers not a single nod to the property's famed history. Sad.

Hey Lea. The drone shots in this video are the definition of “wide open spaces”. Spectacular. And you had an unexpected treat, getting your kicks on Route 66 , as the song goes. 😀. Hope you are well. Until next Thursday, Stay safe. Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦

As a current resident of Oklahoma and a native son of Arkansas, I of course watched with great interest this video and am so looking forward to your next one in which you travel through my native state. I do hope you were able to spend some time in the Ozarks and see how rich those hills are in tradition and natural beauty. There are so many great motorcycle roads in Arkansas, both paved and unpaved. Historic Route 66 in Oklahoma is filled with such a great legacy of vehicular travel and Oklahoma has preserved a large amount of that history. Terra Incognita indeed. Safe travels.

Oklahoma certainly looks like a city worth visiting. I love the glass art. If the botanic gardens are based on Central Park then it means their true roots are here in the UK, as Central Park was based on Birkenhead Park. Designed by Joseph Paxton and opened in 1847 it is considered by many to be the world's first public park. Another fascinating and beautiful episode in your journey - thanks for sharing

Hello. This is the 2nd video I have seen of yours & enjoyed it. The 1st video is the Tail of the Dragon. I live in South Okc next to Moore, Ok. I grew up in Moore. My husband owns a Harley & he loves riding. He's been riding since he was a teenager & now he's in his 50's. He loves doing "Poker Runs". Since we have been together, we have only taken one road trip. Down to Medicine Park, Ok. (Cool place!) They had some sort of bike rally there that day. And we rode over to Meers, Ok to eat at a restaurant & had burgers & fried peaches for dessert. They raise their own long horned beef for the meat at the restaurant. (I can't remember name of restaurant now. Locals would probably know if you ask them. Or google it). We also went up Mt. Scott in Wichita Wildlife Refuge. Watching this video brought back some memories. Back in the 80's, my cousins used to live in Pampa, Tx & we visited them many times. Been in & through Elk City many times. Been in Del City so many times, I've lost count. I subscribed to your channel so I can watch more of your adventures. 💛🏍🙂👍💛

Glad you liked your visit to OKC, Now the whole Metro area is something to see with the numerous amount of unique museums some are must visits, One of the nations top Zoo's. Also the metro area has a great amount of history of the countries First Americans and how Central Oklahoma opened up the West. Some just random off the wall things you find in the Metro area like Guthrie Oklahoma having the nations smallest National Park 10x10 patch of grass with a tree. So much OKC and the Metro area has to offer someone visiting the great city. Anyone I know tells me they are bored I look at them and say Come on lets go! Now for the Texas Panhandle and WEstern Oklahoma you missed a whole of things. Amarillo, Canyon Texas area has a lot to offer visitors and road side attractions. Like Palo Duro Canyon, Where Texas The musical debuts each summer, Caddilac Ranch just outside of Amarillo, The Big Texan also in Amarillo. Also those pick up trucks you mentioned in Pampa those drivers of those vehichles were most likely Oil Field workers who start their day during the pre dawn hours. Hope you enjoy your adventure road trip. looks like you are having alot of fun.

Amazing that there are so few Canadians living in Texas they post signs telling you how far to the next one! Joseph wondered if that sign was telling you far to his cousin, Leonard’s place? Grand road trip. Excellent. Can’t wait to watch the next one.

I rode through OK for the first time about a month ago, and just did it again last week. Last month was my first time riding though OKC and Tulsa. Last week I, like you, accidentally came across the giant Route 66 sign in Elk City. OKC is a fsr more interesting city than I anticipated. You went to the Museum of Art, but I stopped into the Contemporary Art museum while there - it's also pretty good. I'm glad you found a dealer that didn't mind changing your tire despite having a different brand of bike than they carry (my local shop won't even touch the wheels of my bike even if bring them separately. Don't ever be ashamed or allow someone to shane you for your riding geared-up. The vast majority of people in the US who ride only do so recreationally for short trips. You went through the same states I did, too! NM to TX to OK to AR...(except you didn't go to Louisiana). Ride safe.

My husband and I like Route 66.So much to explore!!!

This brought back a lot of memories. I was a brand new field landman in the late 1970’s and lived in Edmond and OKC. I was on the road mostly though during the week and stayed at the Quality Inn in Elk City. I remember all of those towns along old 66 (now I-40) in western Oklahoma. We drove up to Cheyenne and worked in the courthouse there checking records during the day. After work we would race to the Flamingo Motel in Elk City and try to grab a slice of their delicious German chocolate cake. At night I would often swing West to Sayre and have a steak or jumbo fried shrimp at a restaurant there whose name I have forgotten. We acquired oil and gas leases from many farmers and others. The wells that were drilled on those Leases are still producing over forty years later.

Thank you for visiting Oklahoma, while you in OKC you missed Scissortail park and Bricktown with great restaurants. Be safe and cheers.

Thank you for your excellently done videos.. it is refreshing to get another's take on the scenery and attractions you encounter ..some, but not all of us who have lived in the U.S.A. all our lives sometimes take for granted these wonders and will not get to see because they are always here!... we will say "I will go to see them" and never "take" the opportunity to ever do so.....

Loved your video and the music accompaniment! I live north of OKC and thought you did a wonderful job of seeing and describing the sights and sounds of OKC. You are correct, the techs in Del City don't see very many cross country riders! If you had gone to a Honda / Suzuki dealer / mechanic on the outskirts of town, they would have been more familiar with that type of riding. Great job and drive safe!

Great video! I really like the drone footage you incorporate into this video. Your recording equipment, editing, graphics, commentary and music make your videos a pleasure to watch. Since you asked for comments, I live in North Texas. In this video you traveled through what we call the "Texas panhandle". You took a short cut through Texas on your way to OKC. Texas is a very large State, I'm sure you know that. You have the right Bike to ride through the "Big Bend State Park", "Guadalupe Mountains National Park", " Palo Duro Canyon State Park", and "Caprock Canyons State Park". If you like tall trees there is some nice riding in East Texas. Also, what we call the "Texas Hill Country" west of Austin and northwest of San Antonio, is very nice riding. Keep the shiny side up, and keep up the good moto-videos!

Instead of searching for rooms for hours you just drive where you want and at the moment you know how many more kilometers you will do, you can start looking for a proper room.

Texas is an amazing state where you can find all types of riding. You were fairly close to Palo Duro Canyon. We have the Guadalupe Mountains, the River Road Highway (170) which has some amazing twists and turns plus awesome views and a slot canyon or two, Big Bend National Park, the Three Twisted Sisters, plus the beaches and piney woods on the eastern side. It would make a series in itself to do Texas justice with all we have to offer.

Great video and great info. I just returned from riding from Southern Indiana to the Grand Canyon and back with my wife's uncle. We left on 9•17•21 and returned home 9•27•21. I rode my BMW G650GS and he was on his BMW F800GS taking State Highway 50 out. Then tried to stay on Route 66 for the return ride home. ( 3,820 miles round trip,,,, my first ever moto camping trip and longest ever moto trip ) That didn't work out to well though as I-40 pretty much swallows up Route 66. We did hit Winslow, AZ as I had to go STAND ON THE CORNER and get my Pic taken there. Then we went to Cadilac Ranch also. Was my first time in TX and OK . Yea Haw Y'all I too took my drone along.
