  • Which Way is East a motorcycle documentary.
    In 2017 to Celebrate Canada's 150th birthday me and my friend Cowie decided to ride our old cheap bikes from Edmonton, Alberta to The far eastern tip of Nova Scotia over 5000km each way.

    Love it. My first street bike when I turned 16 was a 1980 kawasaki Ltd 440 just like this one, and my dad just so happened to have a brand new Suzuki savage 650. Funny to see the 2 bikes in a video together.

    Awesome story Dude! Love the way you told it and the message...old things teach you about the past. In a similar way, whn you learn a language you learn culture...you ride, care and punish an old bike, you learn how people once lived and loved their adventures! Well done sir!

    Riding a 81 Honda cx500 I paid $900. Was supposed to be a starter, but I love it.

    My first bike was a 198x kz440
    Bike ran like garbage, would turn off if it got cold, but I had more smiles per gallon than I ever have on any other bike
    Excited to watch this series brother 👍

    This is great, I really need to get myself a more comfortable bike and do a cross country road trip! I wonder if the grom would make it 🤔🤔

      Grom would definitely make it, just slowly.. think of the fuel economy though

      It’s just a way to hint that not everything is gonna go to plan. Gives you a little preview of what’s to come.
