Andy Griffith and Don Knox had a chemistry that made the TV show successful. I believe Two Wheels Big Life is producing something magic too. Thanks for keeping it fun.
I can tell you how Richard puts up with you, because you're his joy. And the both of you never cease to amaze me. So many great ideas I never thought of to effectively pack a motorcycle so compactly. Great going!
I live in Natchez Trace Village in Madison, MS. and our neighborhood backs up to the Trace.... We have an adv / walking trail in the back of the neighborhood that comes out on the Trace across from Reservoir. I RIDE it almost everyday. It never gets old.... such a peaceful, beautiful ride every time. Thankful I have this little piece of paradise less than a 1/2 mile from my house!! I am glad you discovered it too, and shared it with the rest... I did suggest it to you guys a while back, but you may have already ridden it by then, not knowing how your videos are released etc? That was GOOD !! Be safe !!😄
Great to see Miss Alice putting down the miles again. Always enjoy Chris' historical facts on an area. Thanks to you both for taking us along for the ride.
Rich and Chris, what a beautiful ride. I think 50 mph is the perfect speed for a motorcycle ride. Just sit back and enjoy the view. Thanks for Sharing!
I absolutely love watching your show. Every morning I watch at least one episode with my coffee and then a few more throughout the day. The inspiration I draw from you two is unmeasurable. I thank you for the motivation and inspiration your adventures and witty banter give me. Your show has inspired me to get out of my comfort zone and explore the world I live in. Also, seeing the way you and Rich get alone together restored my faith in love and finding my other half. Thank you two for sharing your life with us, I really appreciate your hard work, sacrifices and dedication to your show.
I always tell my wife “never take your helmet off until you get off” “ always put your helmet on before you get on” . She is like why do you insist on this.. well if you face plant going on or off your head is protected. And she learned that lesson a month ago when her foot got caught and she fell. Her hear hit the pavement but Thank God she had her helmet on.
Thank you for sharing your ride, your enjoyment and the views! I’ve always wanted to drive the Natchez Trace, so I look forward to the next video. Sunday eves with Chris & Rich are a pleasure.
Chris was exceptionally giggly in this one. Which I think made Richard more happy too. Regardless, excellent video, very entertaining, thanks. Jayman...
I remember when I first went to Natchez, it was the first Fall Pilgramage. My wife and I had a great time, Natchez has some great things to see. We drove up the Trace until we got to the birthplace of Elvis. I think it was 1975 or 76. Much of the trade before steamboats was by flat boats that were built along the Ohio River and when they got to Natchez they either sold the boats for lumber of just abandoned them and went back by the Trace. Beautiful drive, no commercial traffic.
As a 68 year old dude, I've started mounting my Road King from the right side using the foot board while pulling in the front brake lever. So much easier than swinging my leg over the seat from the left especially with a rider's back rest.
I know you guys now have a Rv for travel. My husband and I love our lone rider tent for our short trips. We remove the inner tent and put in our two cots with the rest of the gear. We feel it’s worth the extra $$. Have fun 🤩 🎉 Happy new year 🎆 Thank you for fun videos and info. ❤
Used to live In Mississippi for 10 years..have ridden the trace about 5x…love the road and the history that is all up and down the entire route…such a peaceful ride all year long….so many great places to stop on the way…and yes it is patrolled for speeders all the way through.
I have a pic of a few motorcycles by that same sign. Loved the Trace for many years. I do it less now. There are pics of me with my laundry drying on top of Jeff busby.
Love you guys. It must`ve been `92-`93 in our big old van, my wife (passed last year) 3 sons, our friend (reminds me of Chris) and her son. We ended at Lookout Mt. Great trip ;- )
Love this video Chris and Rich. You both are awesome ❤ God has blessed you both. Glad you got Miss Alice rolling again and love the music 🎶 and historical storie (thou not the capture part😝). Can't wait for your next video EXCITED every time I get a notification! Ride safe and enjoy your adventures 🌹🏍together ❤
Ok. So I live very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have ridden it. Now going to put the Natchez Parkway on my list. Looks like a nice ride. Love your show. Wife and I have been watching since the beginning. Glad to see you back to motorcycling and camping. Enjoy the ride
As a Mississippian who lives 15 miles from the Trace Bridge crossing of the Tn River, I can tell you flatboats came south on the Ms River and the crews and owners walked back north on the Trace after selling their wares and boats. Merriweather Lewis died on the Trace. Read "The Devil's Backbone". Andrew Jackson also traveled the Trace, I believe. I may wave at you from my '99 Magna. Be safe.
I was taught mounting a bike like that by a NYS Trooper, make sure your front is turned all the way to the left, and to apply the front brake, so the bike doesn’t roll forward while mounting! Thanks! ✌🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I am glad to know that I am not the only one that rides with luggage stacked up to my shoulders. LOL Thanks for sharing your journey with us all. I never thought I would want to go back east or the mid west but you two are causing me to change my mind.
This was a great episode. You two cutting up is so fun to watch. Y'all look like you're having so much fun. The recounting of history, the campgrounds and the beautiful road with little traffic makes me consider putting the Natchez Trace trail on the bucket list. Keep it going! 👍
Ahhh, so many memories of our cdmping trip with a slide-in-truck camper. Really enjoyed our time. We were South bound and ended up in Gulf Shore are the state park there for a few nights. Enjoyed the story about the bandits. Thank you
I wrote that last year and you're right it is a different relaxing Pace that you go at if you like hiking a little and riding a lot that is a great place to ride went down to Elvis's birth house where he grew up that was a great area hope you all had a great camping experience and a great time
You two are so cute! My husband and I rode the N.T. about 8 years ago and we loved all of the nice pull offs they have and the fact that there's nothing on it to interfere with the ride.
Thanks for this video. The wife and I are planning jumping on the trace from the far south and heading to Tupelo then cutting across to Clarksdale to go to Ground Zero. This was very helpful. PS, I Love arriving at a camp ground and no one is there.
Where U all camped at the last spot that was free, the birds singing in the back ground were finches my favorite birds. I know spring has come when I here them singing. Their song is different from any other bird. I want to record their song and put it on my cell when it rings. No one will know what is happening. HA! HA! God bless and stay safe out there. Russ & Keira (my dog) HA! HA!
I just love you two, your videos are so entertaining and they make me want to just get out and ride somewhere. Please stay safe and Richard sure looks good back on his Harley. Chris, I enjoy all your history facts. PS welcome to the sunny south 😀
Greetings from England, love your videos, glad you have worked out base camp and camping mix better, you both look more rested.Boy I wish we had some free camp sites like you guys have over the pond. The ones we pay for aren't nearly so good as your free ones!
Good morning guys you make this videos very entertaining!!!Ill really like them and the research and the story’s behind the scenery, the entire series have been very good. I have missed a few chapters and don’t know what happened to the truck and the caravan, but I’m glad they are a feature no more, and that you have gone back to light camping, don’t take that light to seriously. I think you learned from the dinosaurs, they were grown to big, complacent, and way no, please let me say it, to stupid. Congratulations on getting back to the bikes, for certain on shorter loops, yes, but it’s good seeing you again!!!
for the laptops and vibrations, my solution was to get one of the harbor freight knockoffs of a pelican case, and then bolted that to my top box bolts on my tiger 900. that case comes with internal padding that's pretty good, and i keep all of my electronics-related stuff in that.
Boy, Miss Alice looks like new! Didn't notice it on the last post (too fixated on that lousy tent) but she looks like she just came off the showroom floor. The new tent looks to be a winner so you're good to go and man are you going. The Nachez Trace is on my bucket list. Ride on, you 2, there's lots of ground to be covered.
We almost had another first time winner in the Cup race....I pray the angels continue to protect yall on your adventures. Camping was fun in the 80's..my chopper, sleeping bag, ground plastic,pillow,sleeping bag, and a piece of tarp in my Navy duffel bag.....maybe a bottle of Jim Beam.
I recorded that trip last year and had a good time. I live in MS so I wish I would have known y'all were doing it and I could have caught up with y'all and road part of it with you. Know by now y'all are probably pass the double arch bridge so can't wait to see y'all's perspective on that and the rest of this trip.
I'm so excited to have you back on 2 Wheels..I kind of lost interest with camper and truck Sorry but true Now will be sure to watch all Video's and I'm so Jealous as my husband is not a rider and I've rode since I was 14 ...I'm in Mesa Arizona and I watch for you guys 😀
The trace is a beautiful ride a lot of wildlife. I ride the trace a lot going to Mississippi if you set your cruise on 58 the cops usually won’t bother you 60 or more they will write you up.Travel safe love the channel.

Wow, thank you! Karen ❤️
You two never stop smiling and laughing!
Quite an antidote to todays serious times !
👍 well done.
👍👍
Rich and Chris… what I enjoy the most is that you do not take each very seriously. You both are very calming.

Always nice to see you both enjoy. No stress at all
Yes not letting that in. No room for it.
Love it. Simply said, just perfect.
loved the sounds of the birds etc at the end. Very nice
Well done for achieving a relationship that’s actually equal, fair and positive!
That ain’t easy.
Thanks a bunch

You two are living the dream! Good to see Miss Alyce on the road again. She looks new from view. Ride safe!!!

Love it , we're moving from Chicago to Nashville in Feb and the Natchez Trace will be our first long ride. I can't wait.
You guys are totally amazing! Loving each other and the road on motorcycles!! God bless!
Thanks so much!
like how you tell the history of the places
Most of my riding buddies fail the u-turn when we do our parking lot practice .. good job my friend, months off of Alice and you still got it.
Awesome! Thanks
This is a great one with history good music laughter and fun.Really good stuff,while I take my lunch on the road.
My wife and I were on the Trace the 1st week of July. We must have just missed yall!
Refreshing! thank you!
The time spent relaxing in the base camp seems to have rejuvenated yous guys. It was very evident in this video. Keep on biking and b safe out there.
Natchez Trace, Blue Ridge Parkway then Skyline Drive - one of the best memories of riding in the US.
Yes !! And also the Cherohala Skyway !! I did it about 5 years ago on my FJR 1300 i had a great time by myself
In your blooper. It was like a brother teasing his sister. We never truly grow up. Ride safe and have fun. 🇺🇸
Never grow up it’s a trap
I know you guys now have a Rv for travel.
My husband and I love our lone rider tent for our short trips. We remove the inner tent and put in our two cots with the rest of the gear.
We feel it’s worth the extra $$. Have fun 🤩 🎉
Happy new year 🎆
Thank you for fun videos and info. ❤
Actually we only use the camper now for the property. When we hit the road now its back to basics with just a tent
Excellent video. Great history story telling!
You two caracters are adorable!
🇺🇸❤️
Very nice. I need to map that out. Thanks again for a job well done. Hugs
Used to live In Mississippi for 10 years..have ridden the trace about 5x…love the road and the history that is all up and down the entire route…such a peaceful ride all year long….so many great places to stop on the way…and yes it is patrolled for speeders all the way through.
that trail is like cruising thru the Blue Ridge Parkway
Sunday evening with friends.
Beautiful ride!!!!

Looks like a great ride for us that are in no hurry.
It’s a step back in time.
Love you guys so much!
Thanks for the video great job keep them coming
Love this video Chris and Rich. You both are awesome ❤ God has blessed you both. Glad you got Miss Alice rolling again and love the music 🎶 and historical storie (thou not the capture part😝). Can't wait for your next video EXCITED every time I get a notification! Ride safe and enjoy your adventures 🌹🏍together ❤
My most favorite video so far
Awesome thanks man.
When my late wife and I would travel, and we didn’t camp. If we forgot something that we needed and forgot, there’s always a Walmart close by.
Ok. So I live very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have ridden it. Now going to put the Natchez Parkway on my list. Looks like a nice ride. Love your show. Wife and I have been watching since the beginning. Glad to see you back to motorcycling and camping. Enjoy the ride
Awesome. Next week we show more
One of your best, keep up the good work !
I've only done a piece of it, but hopefully I can finish it someday. Neat tip for the laptops.
I'm wearing your shirt on the East side of Nashville watching this. Welcome to my world! :-)
Hey Richard and Chris, I hope yawl have a good adventure.
So far it’s been one.
I'm thinking packing peanuts in a net bag or gel pads for the laptops, and the pool noodle over the footrest.
We still have servjce at Rocky Springs on the last Sunday of the month. We do a living history/cemetery tour every year in October.
My Heroes !
.
Just another classy video but peacefully done. I almost dozed off.....LOL!
Glad to see you back on the road with small equipment and the good old Harley 😎👍❤️

Probably 1 of the MOST AWESOMEST marriages I've ever seen; and I've been subscribed for a minute! #NBTX

Thx for the content, scenery and music!!!
You’re welcome JP
Really enjoyed this one!
You guys are great!

Ahhh, so many memories of our cdmping trip with a slide-in-truck camper. Really enjoyed our time. We were South bound and ended up in Gulf Shore are the state park there for a few nights. Enjoyed the story about the bandits. Thank you
Thanks Betty Job

You two seem more relaxed in this video.Thank you for the video.
I must say Rich, you do look right at home back on Ms Alice
Y’all are entertaining. I road the parkway last year. It was quiet and relaxing. Want to ride it again and stop more often. Be safe
You two are so cute! My husband and I rode the N.T. about 8 years ago and we loved all of the nice pull offs they have and the fact that there's nothing on it to interfere with the ride.
You guys need to spend more on a tent !
Hilleberg/Bug Agnes perhaps ?
Yes we have a new one now. Eureka Space Camp. Great tent and the zippers work perfect.
Thanks for this video. The wife and I are planning jumping on the trace from the far south and heading to Tupelo then cutting across to Clarksdale to go to Ground Zero. This was very helpful. PS, I Love arriving at a camp ground and no one is there.

Great video. Love us “older” riders 😊
Totally enjoyed this video. Rode the trace and love it. Peaceful.
Those hotdogs looked so good. We off to Costco for lunch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just bought a 20 rg limited, i luv it.
Such great fun!! I hope the tent does really well for ya!! Be safe
Beautiful area. Hope to ride it one day
It’s a nice one.
Greetings from England, love your videos, glad you have worked out base camp and camping mix better, you both look more rested.Boy I wish we had some free camp sites like you guys have over the pond. The ones we pay for aren't nearly so good as your free ones!
Thanks for sharing the history very interesting and take along on the ride enjoyed watching take care ride safe
You need to 'push' those Victorinox can-openers which is WAY faster than 'pulling' them!
Great video.... A few of our members are heading to the Trace in September. Would be great to meet you guys.
Loved it ! Thanks for another great episode.
The Trace is 14 miles from my house and I enjoy it quite often
That's why I am friends with Smith& Wesson till this day.🤓
Yup, did the natchez trace, back in May, very nice ride and lots of fun stuff ...
Have fun!!
🙏🙏
