Shifty Drifty is the place to explore world travel with Mark Wallace and his friends.
"Shifty Drifty" comes from Mark's experience in Novosibirsk, Russia, where local college students told him about their favorite American slang term, "shifty drifty." They were sad to hear that it's not American slang, but Mark loved it.
The phrase can mean almost anything. If you're having a good day, or just experienced something amazing, you're shifty drifty. If you're meditating on a mountaintop, you're shifty drifty.
Shifty Drifty is a state of mind.
Mark is a photographer, educator, and solo world traveler. In 2014, Mark left the United States to embark on a worldwide adventure and spent two years backpacking and five years riding around the world on his motorcycle.
Mark has traveled to over 50 countries in his quest to visit every corner of the world. He’s documented his journey through his photography and videos.

Exploring The Utah Backcountry Discovery Route In My Land Rover LR4 | Shifty Drifty
Переглядів 655Рік тому
I take a quick trip on the Utah Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR) this week. I explore stage 6 of this off-road track that crosses Utah from North to South. I experimented with some camp cooking and created a reasonably tasty dish of Kung Poa Chicken. It wasn't gourmet, but it was delicious.

This Wave Changed Everything! | Shifty Drifty

I catch up with Aaron Nace, the founder of @phlearn, in Mayto, Mexico and things take an unexpected turn. A large ocean wave kills my key fob, and it takes us nine hours to get the Land Rover back to the hotel. The wave ruins my phone, Osmo Action, and Mavic remote. This is one crazy adventure.

For long haul touring, the lighter the motorcycle, the better. It is best to get the KTM duke 390 v2 next time. It's powerful and very light. Cheap to maintain and very easy on the fuel. It is a perfect machine. Riding comfort is top notch. And it is great for both off the road and tarmac riding.
Outstanding episode ❤❤❤
Always calming to the soul when i watch your videos. Good stuff. For long haul touring. It is best to get the KTM duke 390 v2 next time. It's powerful and very light. Cheap to maintain and very easy on the fuel. It is a perfect machine. Riding comfort is top notch. And it is great for both off the road and tarmac riding.
The BMW gs is a marketing gimmick. Just being frank. Use a smaller bike for touring.
I did 6 continents and 56 countries over 8 years on this bike. I love it. It’s perfect. 😁
Great stuff. You are a good film maker. Will share out your videos to friends 🎉🎉🎉
Also, for long haul touring. Get the KTM duke 390 v2 next time. It's powerful and very light. Cheap to maintain and very easy on the fuel. It is a perfect machine. Riding comfort is top notch.
Another excellent episode. Thank you.

13:30 somthing how the battery still how power to set the alarm off and flash tue lights but couldnt open the door.
The remote was dead, so it couldn't communicate with the car. The cable in the door was broken, so the key didn't work. ua-cam.com/video/o1HVjN7GbcU/v-deo.htmlsi=s-xWPgRoNnjh5Y7h
@@ShiftyDrifty that was a bad string of luck right there brother. I'm glad you are ok. I live on the coast. The ocean can be a beast.
Awesome! Good stuff ! Man would you help me with mine? Good stuff
thank you sir, this was helpful .
Glad to help out!
Wow. Thank you so much I just started on this and stopped because I was destined to break something if I didn't see a demonstration. For me, i'm replacing the interior door latch cable because I snapped mine taking off the door card. Would you still go through this whole process for it or do you think the black center panel and windshield can remain in the door and worked around while suspending the windshield with duct tape to get to the actuator to replace just the cable?
What size tires do you have
That is the most ignorant, thoughtless looking install ive seen, jesus christ.. ontop of the nice dash!
Last month i brought a 2016 that had a thunk. I do a lot of my own work but no suspension tools and not the time so i took it to LR
What did they find?
Valentina esti frumoasa foc 🥰
Before I started watch, I thought “the first thing I’d check is the front control arm bushes.” Only because We have a D4 with 151k and very slight wheel wobble. Front control arms need replacing according to the MOT. I suspect that’s it. You might also want to check the rear prop shaft as the centre bearing bush fails and the shaft wobbles at speed. Not too difficult to replace, just about 3 hours of wrestling under the car 😂 Good luck!
This is whats gonna make the new santa fe look less ugly from the back
Great job.
So glad you finally got it sorted (after I just followed your saga). It's amazing what a road force balancer will pick up vs. a regular balancer. Thing of note is to find yourself an independent shop for work. I've worked at dealers and independents and when modified cars came in the dealer usually wants nothing to do with it.
Cool
Nice video!
Cost of this trip including bike plz 🙏
I think I paid $1200 for everything. But that was in 2016.
Very nice ❤❤ welcome to Mexico..MARKO
Gracias amigo!! 🍜
Just a friendly FYI. When off in the sticks and you come across sheep they are grazing and usually have guardian dogs on site. These are not to be messed with. They will come after you if you are out messing with the sheep. Same goes for the horses. The dogs basically guard the camp and grazing sheep. Best to stay in the truck drive slow they will move. A little toot of the horn works well i know i used to come across them a lot while driving log truck. That being said that was an amazing video.

Hey my car-brother! ...I also got a white LR4 ;o) Give us a quick update, even if you're just chilling. Also looks like you added a few pieces to your tent! Thanks for the dreamy drone shot! Cheers!
Beautiful
Thank you!
Absolutely incredible!! Can’t wait to see more!!
Thanks! I have a lot more filming to do, but wanted to star sharing asap.
Yes we germans are the best, Haha.. Nice Vid and everybody will get stuck from time to time :)
*going round the Darien Gap
Thank you for this! We’ve been struggling finding a solution and I think this will work!
Is this the 17” mount?
Yes, the 17" Modular Aluminum Black RAM Tough-Track
Great setup. I am doing the same to mine but will for sure add power up there. Makes the wiring much nicer I hope!
@RandyFarnes put a USB port on his dash and it looks great. I'm going to try to do the same soon.
I figured you were just spending a couple of weeks in jail.
Hahaha. Not again.
@@ShiftyDrifty 😁 That market has some good looking produce!
Always on the go!! Love you brother!!
Love you too!
Did you buy anything? Grab me a 10mm wrench from that huge pile next time you’re there! 😁 Come to think of it, if that pile is like every other stash of tools in the world, the 10mm is missing from there, too. 😂
I grabbed some of the fruit, it’s really tasty.
This video has made me so homesick for Montana. I grew up Missoula in the 60s and 70s, but the lure of adventure took me away first. After returning to get a journalism degree, getting a paying job took me away again. The Coffee Cup was my uncle's favorite place to eat in Hamilton, and I've been there a few times myself. I'm glad you took a well-deserved vacation from UA-cam, but I'm also glad you're back.
I remember Missoula in the 70s as the “big city” north of us. My memories of driving up were of a long, long, trip on treacherous roads. But it was worth it to see the mega huge K-Mart with all the toys. Hahaha. I’ve had many meals at The Coffee Cup, fond memories.
My father built a house about two blocks east of that Kmart in 1969. He lived in that house until his death in 2017. He watched the Kmart built and he watched it razed to make room for other businesses. In our youth, my friends and I spent many a day wandering those aisles. It was in that store that I persuaded my mother to buy my first 35mm camera for me. It was a Minolta SRT-102 with a 50mm f1.7 lens. Yes, Hwy 93 was treacherous road. It wasn't a joke when people started putting bumper stickers on their cars that said, "I drive Highway 93, Pray for me."@@ShiftyDrifty
Enjoyed your video! We visited Monument Valley last year and loved it. Love the red rock cliffs and mountains.
Thanks for watching! It’s always good to connect with other adventurers.
My biggest takeaway from this and the rest of your videos is how calmly you handle adversities during your travels. I hope you finally get that rear wheel fixed and continue your fantastic videos. I’ve certainly learned a lot. Thanks!
That's so nice to hear. I'm not too worried about that wheel, it will all work out. It's just part of the adventure!
I do not think that is bearing squeak. It just doesn’t sound like that to me. Pull off the rotor and check the parking brake shoes inside (as others have suggested). I bet you’ll find a rock or some dust buildup in there.
I agree. I think it's just something annoying, not serious. I might have to drive back to Kansas so we can do round 2 of the Land Rover Do-Over Land build. Bumper, winch, rock sliders...
Mark il y a aussi la procédure de de réinitialisation du frein et moteur du frein de Park à effectué après avoir touché au frein
Salut mark as tu déjà changer les silenblocs de la barre stabilisatrice power flex
Hi Mark. Before ripping your hubs apart try this. Buy new brake pads for both service brake and emergency brake. Fit the complete axel set BUT, when installing them coat the surfaces that mate on the backs against the pistons with Copperslip grease. I don't know if this is called the same in the US. See if this cures the squeak before spending many hours and dollars doing bearings. With the miles you've been travelling recently the bearings would've been screaming by now if that was the problem.
I agree with you. The hub would have burst into flames by now if it was the wheel bearings (or those bearings are made of miracle metal). I still suspect the emergency brake pads inside the hub. I'll dig in soon.
Back on the land of my favorite color pallets 😍
I waved to Mexican Hat as I drove by. I told the rocks you say "hola!"
I had that same noise, it was my brake shoes inside the rotor. (different from the brake pads on top of the rotor.)
Good to know! Those are for the emergency brake, I believe. I'm going to have to get that rotor off and see what's going on.
Beautiful! I want to experience that one day.
You could do it in your Subaru!
It's your wheels bearing Remove & check it.
I suspect that it's something else. Because the noise is not constant (it will go away for a few days) I suspect something else. I drove from Oregon to Arizona and it didn't get any worse. I think the bearings would have caught fire if they were the issue. But... I'm not a mechanic. haha
