- What are the hardest bikes to ride? It has to be heavy, tall, and on imperfect roads: ADVENTURE BIKES. I find Jocelin Snow, BMW GS Trophy challenger, to show me how. She's shorter than me and can handle heavy bikes too tall for either of our feet to touch the ground. If anyone can show us how to be a better rider, it’s Jocelin.

One year later... I bought my own adventure bike, and rode across America to train again with Jocelin on my OWN bike. So of course, she had me go on the even CRAZIER obstacles - check it out here! ua-cam.com/video/4o06dEL1gwQ/v-deo.html
"I want the contact information for this trainer. Thank you."
Please inform us about the price of the training at your facility and how long it takes to train on driving an Africa Twin, as I am experiencing a problem with height.
Owning that mission!! Go get em.
Serious question, why did the build these bikes so big and top heavy?? There has to be a reason. I’ve heard they are difficult to ride even for seasoned veterans, and the learning curve is steep.. CONGRATS!!!!
Some of your videos have made me cry, and this one was no exception. I lost my 21-year old son in 2018 when he lost his battle with depression. Learning to ride a motorcycle in 2020 at age 55 literally saved my life after my son passed. I have had to overcome so much fear and put in so much work this last year and a half to go from riding a little Honda 250 to a behemoth bagger. You have inspired me from the beginning because of videos like these. You humbly show your willingness to push past fear, to keep getting up when knocked down and to never give up...this has helped me so much and inspires me more than you could ever know! Thank you, Carolyn, from the bottom of my ♥️
And now you are passing along inspiration! Thank you for sharing.
That makes two of us… reading this comment made me cry… I am so sorry you for your loss… am so proud of you for being a light since then when I’m sure it wasn’t easy. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you back
Amy V, your words have made me cry.
Hello from Canada. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm so incredibly sorry.
I suffer from depression too, and what you did to help deal with your own grief is so inspiring to me.
Thank you for showing me and others another way out from under sometimes crushing, self defeating, fear.
Sincerely yours,
Andre
EDITED for typo
I'm sorry for your loss Amy V, may your son rest in peace. It's good to read that video's like these help you in some sort of way. I barely watch Doodle, but apparently she makes a lot of impact and that's just awesome. Take care everyone.
Unless you have tried this yourself, you have no idea how difficult riding off-road can be. Great job and don’t stop surprising us with you’re determination.!
I agree 20 years ago I rode my first dirt bike and it was really hard to ride it at first but after awhile I got used to it I was doing stuff that my little nephews were doing going over jumps and trail riding and going over tough terrain
Sand and gravel are hard enough on a sub-500 cc adventure bike. On a massive GS, that's some intimidating riding.
You two are amazing. I have never felt so absolutely inadequate as a rider before. To see what someone a foot shorter than me can do on a bike bigger than mine is humbling. Hats off to you both for the hard work you put in.
This is so inspiring! My wife is 4'9" and I am now looking forward to teaching her. I told her that "you riding on a motorcycle is 90% will and 10% skill" she's looking forward to getting her first bike and I'm looking forward to falling and failing gracefully with her so that we can learn more. You're an inspiration along with Jocelin. Please keep up the great work.
nice bro
Jocelin has been an inspiration to many of us mini-sized riders. As I've said many times before there was youtube or the internet, I had learn all the techniques Jocelin teaches by trial and error... which means I dropped my first bike A LOT... Great job Doodle... 👍🏼
Indeed , no fear of dropping the bike is a big thing.
Miss Snow practices like a cirque du Soleil artist. Just over and over again .
For us to be inspired by.
Beautiful backyard. Such is impossible in Europe nowadays. Noise pollution , neighbours , insurance , government approved training area , ....
But I hope salesman in Europe are friendlier compared to the one that wouldn't sell her the gs. ( Maybe the seller had a low-confidence complex about something small shaped himself)
@@tpilot_error404 I still drop my ADV off-road on some of the technicals hence crash bars and bash plates... lol I think it's more a male thing to size up a person and think they are helping by recommending what you should be riding rather than keeping their mouth shut and listening to what the customers riding experience is... Jocelin had years of riding taller bikes prior to her getting a GS but I bet the Salesman didn't even know that.
@@RonConsumer a good salesman would had given it a chance in a safe mode. Or he would be asking the right questions.
A lot of bloggers report salesman do sell RR type literbikes to young man that haven't even started riding lessons yet .
@@tpilot_error404 Generally, here in the states that happens with kids buying literbikes a lot because most salesmen are looking at their monthly quotas and not really concerned if it is too much bike for a person... but it's a pretty commonplace for guys to make a judgment when it comes to women riders.
Most surprising, isn’t that your skill on a motorcycle has improved… but what an increased level of confidence you have. So much so, that it can even be heard in your voice. I am learning from you, much more than motorcycling knowledge.
I’m 6’4 250 and I’m nervous about riding a gs1200 due to its size and weight. Mad respect to you and Jocelyn for learning to ride such machines.
Ahh! That's so cool!! Great job and congrats! You went from a lowered street bike to a giant ADV bike in the time I've been watching you. What a fantastic accomplishment. Really was smiling this whole video. It's inspiring to see someone transition in such a big way. Good on you for never giving up, and never letting people influence you away from something you love.
The video I've been waiting for! Amazing job Doodle, you killed it! I had a huge smile on my face the entire video. Our biggest limitation is ourselves and you've shown the most important person that you have no limitations, yourself. Congratulations on facing a huge challenge and conquering it.
I'm a fairly big dude on a 1200GS Adventure. Taking that thing on technical dirt with my wife riding pillion, with full luggage, is downright scary. This is where the content of this video is both inspiring and informative to me. That bit with the butterflies or chicks was brilliant. Stay loose. I struggle to stand on dirt, but I'll get there. Go girl-power!
I'm so impressed with all the training you are going through. You are doing an excellent job and it seems Jocelin was the perfect trainer for you. Keep up the good work.
I have been riding for over 50 years; consider myself a competent rider. This was impressive. With a relatively short inseam, there are some bikes I wouldn’t choose. You showed the shining example of “where there’s a will, there’s a way” in this video. Much respect!
Seeing how much you've learned and progressed since I started watching your channel is so motivating! I have a 34" inseam and my big GS still intimidates me even after 100k+ miles on sport tourers over the years. You're constantly reminding me that determination and proper education can help bring more fun and safety on two wheels. You and Jocelin add so much value to the motorcycle world!
I'm 6'2" and I'm in awe of super short riders like Jocelin Snow and Megs Braap who can handle bikes 50 times better than I can. It's amazing what practice and persistence can do.
Amazing video!thanks so much for the upload and the effort of making it!
This is really inspiring!I’m a short male rider of 5’5” and am just starting out on baby 310 GS!
Some days on the dirt can be somewhat challenging and overwhelming, but this video has given me even more confidence to not give up and just keep on practicing.
And thanks for sharing Jocelin Snow with us. I’m sure I’m going to learn LOADS on both your channels
Best video ever!!! Love to see the way Jocelyn revealed these empowering skills that were in you all along. Keep going!!
Hi Doodle, your video was a great watch! The obstacles were insane, mostly mind over matter and Jocelin clearly shows that stature doesn't play a part, It's technique! Picking up the GS looked so difficult and requires real strength from your legs and the ground was very loose! You did really well and I see a champion in the making!
It's truly amazing how many adventures you have had and will have since you decided that you wanted to ride motorcycles! Awesome job Carolyn! Keep having fun. Take care.
Everything is possible when you have the right teacher!!!!Great work and the idea with the yellow baby chick was awesome and cute at the same time!!😊
Doodle, this was awesome to watch. Your editing and story telling skills seem so natural. Your pursuit of two wheel skills is inspiring and it’s so fun to tag along on these adventures with you. Keep it up! 🙌
I have to say, I think this is the best video you have shown us! So much fun watching your enthusiasm. Great content, keep smiling!😀
You are an inspiration for motorcycle riders, but also for everyone. Your life skills of never giving up and having a positive attitude impacts everyone priviliged to had either met you or watch thru your videos. Thank you for inspiring me to be a better rider and also a better human being. 🙏
I just LOVE Jocelin's excitement when you accomplish a challenge! What an amazing, fun, supportive instructor! Way to go Doodle! ❤
This is by far your best Video yet! I love watching you learn and succeed at new skills. Keep up the good work!
Doodle, your determination and willingness to try everything on 2 wheels is inspiring. Even to an old biker like me. That was awesome!
Wow! This was one of your best videos. Well done not only in the riding but the editing. I can see your confidence building on every ride you do.
Another great video, Doodle. A nice, well put-together video about your trials and tribulations handling big machines. All great advice.
100 points for going to the absolute expert (and sexiest) ADV rider in the world for advice!
Motorcycle riders come in all sizes and everything Jocelin ever said about riding is relevant for all of us. Her positive outlook on life, and that smile and laugh, are contagious.
Not everything street translates to dirt, but EVERYTHING dirt translates to street.
And everything Jocelin translates to life.
Someone else you should meet is Megan Griffiths aka Megs Braap. She's on the single track dual-sport/dirt bike side of things. Another person with a quality attitude. And she has skillz.
This was the one I've been waiting for. Two of my most respected riders working together in one video. It looked like you two had a lot of fun in between your terror. Well done both the riding and the content.
I love seeing this! You are truly an inspiration to motorcycle riders everywhere. After watching your journey I will never say “I can’t” ever again! Thanks for all of the amazing content.
Love the encouragement. A true adept has no problem sharing their knowledge and experience. We’re all on this planet to learn & share. Absolute quality from all involved.
Doodle, you are killing it lately. These videos give inspiration to anyone trying anything new. Really cool.
Great job Doodle and Jocelin. This video was awesome to watch. I am a retired Motorman and love to see people pushing the envelope to be the best riders they can be. Keep it up! P.S. I, too, would have picked the baby chicks.
Congratulations on this achievement! I'm pretty sure you've found this day of training your most rewarding yet. This, to me, is your best video thus far. I am a heavy adv rider (Super Tenere) and hoped you'd get here someday. Your growth and skill building is so very inspirational to so many. Excellent to see you train with Jocelin! I can't imagine being confined to pavement, welcome to my world!😎👍🏻
Baby chicks was the best advice for (almost) every riding situation ! Relax your arms and hands - even when riding a sportbike.
Save this playlist, it's the tips Jocelin showed me in the video bit.ly/JocelinsBeTheBoss
Want to train with Jocelin? Just email her to schedule it! Jocelinx@gmail.com
Jocelin shows you how to build your own adventure course so you can do these exercises in your own backyard too! bit.ly/JocelinsChallengeCourse
Congratulations you've come a long way the past few years. Your dedication and determination is paying off big. 👍👍😎
The first time I watched her ride I cried. I am a huge believer in challenging yourself Always! She is such an inspiration to me! Thank you Doodle for this video and for sharing your experience with her. It is so Amazing how we an all as a motorcycle group grow and teach and inspire one another! ❤❤❤
Well done, Doodle! Having watched your progression from the early days....girl, you have come a long way!! Looking forward to what your future will bring....ride safe!
Awesome! I like how you keep setting goals for yourself and keep improving by practicing.
Wow Doodle!!!! Your videos are at another level this year! The production and storytelling are soooo GOOD!!! Also, you're becoming such a good rider! Very inspiring! You should be proud!!
Ahh thank you I’m tryin’!!
I’ve been watching Jocelyn’s videos for years and she does the work! Like how she collected leftover logs from the County ha. Solid skills and so impressive. Awesome you did this collaboration!
One of your best videos Doodle. Awesome substance in your stuff. Keep ‘‘em coming.
Excellent work Doodle, Jocelin and team! My daughter will be able to get her 'L' plates this year. She has done some junior Flat track and bush trails, but been off the bike for a couple of years. This will be a bit of motivation that with practice, she will be fine. Cannot wait to do some dad and daughter adventure riding!

Jocelin has always been my inspiration to go for the adventure segment bike as I was sceptical about my height. I am not short as she is nor I ride the motorcycle as big as hers but adventure bikes are intmidating and seeing Jocelin on those obstacles helped a great way to overcome my fear. Kudos to you for learning[ from an absolute legend.
Wow.. This was another EPIC video Doodle. That track looks crazy, very cool to see you on a big ass advbike. Thanks for sharing
Great video and showcasing Jocelin's skills and training. I did a lot of dirtbike riding back in my younger days. I also raced flat track for about 2 years. Proper training and practice builds skills. Good job Doodle!!
Way to go Doodle! I hope all you short people are taking note here. You can do it too.
Awesome stuff, very well done! I am proud of you! Going out there and conquering your fears and proving the trolls wrong! Fantastic!
You and Jocelin have been such an inspiration for me. Thank you so so so so so much for sharing!!!🙏🏻 Keep kicking ass girl🤙🏻
What about riding in bumper to bumper traffic in India? For short riders that's the most difficult thing I feel
Friction zone and slow speed skills!! Jerry Palladino and Moto Jitsu have a lot of videos on that
Sir yh fake feminist ka kida hota inke andar , practical way se nhi sochti
I can't believe I somehow missed this when it first came out. Snow's course and instruction are nothing short of amazing. As a fit 6'1 man I'd pay hundreds for a couple of sessions with her and that track. Absolutely love how Doodle's journey has progressed to the point where she's going all of these amazing adventures just because she decided to buy a motorcycle one day.
That was your best vid by far in my opinion. I am so in love with both of your enthusiasm. Well done
Doodle, I am so impressed that you push through your fear to tackle the different types of training. Way to go girl!
This was sooooo amazing! I find Jocelin Snow so inspiring and you are so impressive too! I love seeing women achieve goals society says they shouldn't even try! As a trans woman I feel society shuts the door on me before I even get a chance to shine. I loved this so much! Thank you for being so awesome and proving we can do anything we set our minds to! ❤️🌈🏍️
Fuck society I support you!! ❤️ 🌈 ☀️
@@DoodleOnAMotorcycle Awe! Thank you! I appreciate that a lot! 🥰❤️🌈
Powerful , rebellish and unique individuals will and do change society. 🍀
@@DoodleOnAMotorcycle Doodle and Jocelin are both good humans - no hating.

Well Said Doodle 🏴 🇦🇺
This was a great video!! Very impressed with both ladies!! Thanks for sharing it.
Excellent job! I have had GS bikes for years, took me a lot longer to learn what you did in a couple of days. Keep it up.
I love your determination Doodle, each video I watch you get better..Well done.
So good to see women riding and learning to handle bikes that many men would also need the same lessons on. Ride hard, live freely!
Keep up the good work. I love watching you try and try and try till you get it to work. No obstacle seems to be too big. Truly an inspiration...
Jocelin Snow, in my opinion, is the best in the world when it comes to this. So glad you were able to spend a few days with her and show yourself that there is nothing to doubt, just learn how to do it. Awesome job. Was a pleasure to watch.
Doodle you are killing it. I've seen you do some challenging stuff before but now you seem to be reaching levels that few riders will ever get to.
I love that you keep finding ways to improve your skills and your can do attitude about all of it. I'm a bit jealous and very happy for you at the same time.
Stumbled upon this video and your channel and I gotta say... Cheers! That was an awesome ride along with you two. Very talented teacher and a more than learn-willing and adaptive student. Nice riding. Keep it up and thanks again for making us riding shotgun with this video. So much to learn, so much to train, so much fun.
I have learned so much from this video. Thank you for sharing this experience with us! It has been amazing to see you grow over the years.
That was an awesome video! You did great learning thise skills! Thanks for taking us along!
I'm 50 and been riding for 15 years and I love this video, especially the ending as you both complete the dirt bowl and she hi-5's you. Now I'm the hugest fan of Jocelin (and her team)!!
You definitely picked on of the best to learn from. I like how you are using your format to inspire and push other people to get better. At 53 with over 200,000 miles I still try to go to a class every year. You are never to old to learn and get better. Keep up the good work. You should try to make it to the 2022 BMW MOA Rally. You will be amazing at how fun it is to meet so many like minded people.
This is so awesome! I love the enthusiasm and positive mindset to overcome challenges. There’s good tips in this video for everyone, not just short people. ❤
This is one of the best and most inspiring video I have seen in a long time. I'm 5"1 and I recently bought a triumph street triple 675 and I have struggled with the whole height thing and have dealers tell me there is no hope for me on bike but boy am I now proving them wrong. Keep doing what your doing, you are an inspiration 👏
Your amazing! You have proved that anyone can ride a big bike! Especially a ADV MC. I am going to show this to my GF to show her how practice,breathing,and a great attitude can make ride anything.
It is great seeing you do what you do.
Pretty awesome of the stuff they teach and what you are accomplishing. Keep it up! Love the videos.
Awesome video, Doodle! I thoroughly enjoyed it and at times felt like I was riding over and through those obstacles. Great job 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
Ride Safely!
100% this was one of the best Doodle training arcs yet! That seems like such an amazing course to train/practice on
Excellent video and looks like a lot of fun. I love how you're constantly learning and showing the entire process along the way.
Go Doodle GO!!!!! Amazing video!! Jocelin was amazing and you showed what you're capable of!!! Go for it!!!
I absolutely love it. I saw one of those bikes the other day and thought...no way. Now I'm looking forward to riding one. Thanks ladies and continued good work.
Awesome job Doodle. I am very impressed with your determination, editing and story telling. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks! That was fun!….one of your best IMO. - Channel is evolving!!
Wow you are so brave! Great video. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Probably one of your best videos. Admitting to shortcomings just ads to your credibility. Good job. Keep reminding us to always want to improve.
Both of y’all are amazing, but extra kudos to the instructor, she always had excellent advise on building specific skills on specific obstacles.
I’m so happy for you Doddle! Looks like you both had a great time together!👍👌👍
You did so amazing Doodle!!! Now I have a new dream - to train with Jocelyn Snow!!! Thanks for the great video 💜🙏
This makes me think I need alot more practice. Watching you ladies inspires me. I'm average height middle aged man on an above average size bike. There's so much I can learn from watching you two. Thanks for the push to better learn the craft .
Great video! This mindset applies to so many things. I've saved this video to show my daughter who struggles sometimes with the "can't do's". You can always do so much more then you think!
I love this. I grew up riding dirt bikes but I won't lie... these big adventures are a little crazy. Good for you, Doodle, and for anybody else wanting to conquer this fear I say go for it.
Got to say that this is video is absolutely fantastic, you were more then awesome and had so much fun learning these techniques. I'm looking forward to see you using them daily or when you try out ADV bikes
Doodle this is amazing and inspiring 😭 I just got a Vstrom 650 that's a little too tall for me and already dropped it at a standstill. Little bad habits that I get away with on my supersport are becoming obvious. I love the bike and am determined to get confident on it. So good to see other women doing the same and achieving that goal, helping me see what is possible!!! Thank you!
Heck yea! Loved this video. All obstructions exist only in the mind! Once you look past and power through, nothing stands in your way!
Her training methods are amazing and you are a very good student. I can t wait to get my actual license. thanks for sharing something so positive.
Loved the video! Made me smile and laugh. Girls ROCK! This 57 yr old Mom wants to ride w/her 21 yr old son! It's been awhile, still have a lot to learn, but I'm ready to get back on a bike. Can't wait to buy an ADV motorcycle! Girls, you're my inspiration! I'm learning a lot from your vid's.
So happy you finally got into adv bikes. They are so dang fun and open up so much terrain and new adventures.
You are a phenomenal student - learning this stuff way faster than most riders! Good on ya
Probably the best video I may have watched. Very inspiring indeed. Thank you.
I remember watching some of your early videos where you struggled with road riding on a small bike and lacking self belief. To see the things you do now and how you challenge yourself, I have nothing but admiration for you.
🥲❤️
This took a lot of courage, Carolyn. Well done. Cheers. Mac
Wow Doodle! Amazing what you did with Jocelyn’s help!
Fantastic video. I'm 5'3" and have been limiting myself to cruisers with low seat heights. This video has given me the confidence to step out of my comfort zone.
This was an epic video! Keep up the amazing work! Get out there and conquer bigger and better things!
Awesome riders! Can't wait to see the new generation of riders that you are to launch.
I am in awe seeing this video. Thanks for sharing.
