I have not ridden across anything yet!!!
Well, I take that back; I have ridden across the state lines of Ohio and West Virginia.
I wanted to say that since I live in Ohio and have lived in West Virginia most of my life, riding in 40 degree weather is simply adding a base layer and a “winter” armored jacket and heated grips!
I rode from my current residence in Ohio(Marietta) to Clarksburg, WV once in temperatures in the mid to high 30’s and had base layers and waterproof bibs with heavy gloves that have insulation on the back of the hands l(no insulation on the palms) and are designed to work with the heated grips!
It was fun , but getting into and out of the bibs a couple times was a bit of a challenge!
Did a 20 day trip across country. Got a GoPro to record to share with family and friends. One thing is schedule your time to do six hours riding a day if possible. I rushed through trying to ride many different routes to see and record. Did too much riding and not enough stopping and enjoying. Rode in temps from high 40's to 112. Saw some amazing roads and scenery that I want to go back and ride again but will probably fly in close to a Eagle Rider dealer to save time next time around. Most days were 8 to 12 hours in the seat. The last few days were brutal physically and emotionally. Took me several days to recover. Stay off the interstate as much as possible. 2 lanes are the way to see America. Best adventure ever! Would not trade it for anything but will do it different next time. Plan ahead because summer times have many hotels and campgrounds at full vacancy. Some National Parks require a "vehicle registration" which you have to "hopefully" get months in advance now to enter and you can get the details at their website (It's BS but it is what it is). Posted rides to UA-cam for family and friends and this is something I could NOT do full time. Much respect for the motorcycle vloggers out there who do this full time. The videoing and editing is like a second job. I will stick to my day job thank you.
100 percent recommend eagle rider, I've rented both an RnineT and a road king from them. super nice, super professional, and they keep their bikes MINT. PS the roadking was an orlando rental. Blockhead introduced the world to Sugarloaf, and I can definitely recommend that route as well.
Longest trip i go every year here in Romania from Cluj-Napoca to Timisoara for a bike fest,about 315 KM
I did a cross country from Maryland to Arizona when I moved back to AZ to look after my folks. It was my first and so far only cross country ride, but it was really great! I did it on my 14 SGS which has now morphed into a 21 RKS!
Shes sure laughs alot 😂 . Which isn't a bad thing. She just enjoys life lil more then most lol
Thats bc she's riding a motorcycle!
The stairs incident will haunt Jess forever. LOL
That was sooo funny! Right after Jess said that, I laughed out loud and you could tell Block didn't realize what Jess said until a moment later then bursts out laughing! Such a great episode, I loved that - great times! Nothing better than being on two wheels, traveling the country and being with good company! Thanks so much for sharing @BlockheadMoto !
Amanda adds a nice touch for us ladies who watch you 😁 Loved seeing y’all on Jess’s channel. The longest ride I’ve done so far is 250 miles. Been riding year and a half 😃
This feels like a lifetime ago already! Let’s do it again soon!
Hell yeah! Congratulations man. You two seem to vibe great together. Gonna be great seeing everything progress in your videos and wish you two the absolute best!
I love that you’re the same way around the guys at the shop and on rides as you are with your girl. Just shows you’re a genuine person, and just are who you are. You don’t change when the camera turns on.
26:00 the talk after the ride, that is a very important thing to do after a long ride and share some thoughts of the travel and some improvements for the next ride... Cheers from Chile!!!
I was about to fall in love with your girlfriend last video, but then her two wheels smile is so overwhelming you can only be fulfilled after admiring it ! Oh another thing, in one of your video you said comment in what are you grateful for, and I'm grateful youtube suggested me BLOCKHEAD during the covid lock down. A fan from TN North Africa
Seems like a really fun trip, that clip of Jess and the stairs still cracks me up.
DUUUUUUUUUDE!!!! Super stoked for you! I've been watching since way back when and so glad you've got someone in your life! Hope to bump into y'all sometime here in the CFL...
And FYI - hitting the road DOES NOT feel good.
Last summer i did a quick 4 day, 2k mile rip to the smokies, and then a 2 week 5300 mile ride west to colorado, then north to glacier np. It was an epic road trip and i was solo for most of it. Going up around lake superior in august. 11k miles last year, hopefully more than that this year. Cant wait. America is beautiful! 14 flhx with almost 80k and not 1 bit of trouble so far. Just wind and bugs.
Gonna be in MN?
@@joshawalister4657 yep for a couple days. Goin to the headwaters of the mississippi, then up the north shore.
@@bradwatters996 nice. I live up near Virginia.
@blockhead, I'm sooooo happy for u, bro!! U come across as a very personable kind and caring dude so it's awesome to see u got a girl that makes u happy and matches your vibe!!! U 2 seem like a good couple. Glad to see that you are letting us see the other side of your life not just the business and motorcycles!! Also I'm getting a cvo st pls let us know mods and hp gains for this ASAP!! I know tuning is a issue I belive but do what you can pls!!
Falling down the stairs…. Classic 🤣🤣
lol seeing her fall down the stairs just makes me laugh so much. Man, that was such a funny moment.
(sorry Jess) 🤣
I do it to myself 😂
One of the best endings episodes ever “Did you guys like how I booked an Airbnb without stairs?” 😂😂😂
Welcome Miss Amanda to the Blockfam. Looking forward to meeting you. 👋🏼
Jess falls in 3, 2, 1.... 😮 Glad that you are ok🤙🏼
Great timing with the AT&T shout out lmfao
Lmao you took the words out of my mouth😂 it was like being a pilgrim for a day
Hey blockfam, havent watched in a while. Been subbed since the OG how to on the iron. Had a bad shoulder injury that i had to end up selling my bike and it caused my motivation for any motorcycle content to drop to zero over the being upset. Recently have got to where, after being in the gym and getting my strength better than prior to the injury. The want for a new bike and really get back to dailying a bike is super strong and so glad to get back to watching yalls amazing content
cheers to you and the lady friend.. glad this ride just made things stronger. poor jess and stairs. lol either way keep up the fun and lookin fwd to how you liked the whole trip. cheers.
Peace! 2 thrills in one. riding a motorcycle across America. Nothing richer than that. My husband and I each rode from Pueblo, Co to Key West, Fla and back in 2 weeks time. 4400 miles. we rode bikes for 11 days and a rented golf cart in key west for 3 days. The day I got home I wanted to do it all over again. Amazing experience for both of us.
That sounds like an amazing trip, Key West is always fun!
Nice to see you on the road.
I know this a series, but I'm already looking forward to the next big riding adventure.
Great video and the more personal touches were nice to see as well. Been watching you since pretty much the start and I love how you are constantly evolving and how humble you are. Keep up the amazing work and thank you for sharing your journey with the world 🤘🏻👍🏻
Amanda’s laugh is infectious, love it. And just such a fun video. Thanks!
Amanda has a great personality. You guys are a great team! Glad to have you on the channel Amanda🤘🏼
So fun watching you guys ride some of the roads I take all the time
Congrats Block and Amanda! Looking forward to the details on this trip and your review of the ST! 💪🏻🤘🏻
Great vid man love the scenery and all 3 of yall together one of a kind times 🤙
Ayy you stayed right around the corner from my house. How cool! Love the motovlogs back on the channel
im from the desert but now i live in florida. i used to live in orlando but now in the tampa area. i see these vids of you in the desert and my heart pines....
Lol the gold wing has been able to tell you that your bag was left open for over 20 years. The top of the line HD in 2024 can’t. That’s wild.
Did blockhead just make it youtube official?? lol .... congrats you two, hope you continue to ride together for many years to come! ;)
yeah..., i believe they're already on the lookout for an affordable Sidecar, for the Babyblocks!!
OMG Amanda is amazing. That energy is contagious.
1:37 Cheezz she really knows how to smile like a cobra🤪 , Great content guys!
Firstgear's Warm and Safe heated gear comes with a controller to vary the heat levels so you don't get burned.
I highly recommend it. I've ridden down to 2*F, it does the job very, very well.
Love that she's on a Heritage. Old school style and still super comfortable
Sorry about your phone, congrats on the girlfriend
she says she "tolerates" riding a Harley-Davidson. Pump the brakes dude, as fast as u can
I was just in CA for vacation and went to Eagle Rider, fantastic place to get a rental!
New video ! Have fun everyone ! Thanks Block :)
That wind howling @0:33 is 🤯
Sometimes clouds could be so comfortable when you're riding Thank you for the video take care
Well now your ride together and next marriage. Be safe and enjoy each others company and you will have great memories. I enjoy your bike builds and the 2 amgos lol God Bless you all on your great adventure.
Two ladies and the Blockman very nice 👍
Definitely enjoyed this video 🤘🤘🤘
😮😮😮😮whaaaaaat ? Come on block you just broke my heart 👀👀, idk what I missed but since last video I started stalking her 😭😭… it is what it is uh? 🤣🤣🤣🤣…. She seems amazing brother, great seeing her in the videos and y’all having fun together 💪🏼🛵💨 ride safe. Hugs from Houston!
That is a great ride. I have done it a few times but never on a bike with a fairing. Last time was on a 07 Fatboy with apes. I have done the same thing with my phone and said the same exact words 😂
The hot wired winter gloves are awesome too.
Like the kruesi shirt and the the shadetree rating system of the omelet.
Is that a banana in Amanda’s pocket..or is she just happy to see us. 🤣🤣. I’ll see myself out. 😅
Now it makes sense of why Blockhead had a collab with Lloydz. He was putting the moves on Amanda! LOL
I feel ya on the broken phone. Just bought the new galaxy s23, had it in my coat pocket and didn't even know it fell out until a passing pickup truck told me I lost something. It was BEYOND repair.
Best thing about that stair fall was that the beer was immediately secured. Lol
I’m a professional 😂
@@HerTwoWheels and Block took it before helping u up! 😂
She’s definitely at the danger zone of the crazy-hot matrix. Congrats and wish you guys the best!
Amanda is giggly 😂
I swear, I saw a frame of Amanda in a previous video and thought, "I wonder if block got a girlfriend". Subsequent videos pretty much confirmed it. A red head at that. Have fun. I married one and we have been together nearly 31 years now. No pressure..... It's been a great adventure.
Amanda is awesome !! talked to her when i got my FTR tuned over in the netherlands ... first Lloydz tune in Europe !!
got a cool tshirt and lloydz garage keychains too !!
Loved it. Nice to see a bit of personal perspective
Good stuff guys! 😎👍🏼👍🏼
Gerbing are absolutely fantastic for heated gear. Couldn't recommend them more 👍
Jesse could park her bike in my garage anytime!! She just needs to come to Brisbane Australia ❤
@2:45 she already said "you suck" so it's all easy street from here! Lol. Great vid. Will there be a group vid with Block, Chris, & Justin's women all riding together in the future? 😮
Awesome video Blockhead…Where did your girlfriend get the Screamimg Eagle neck gaiter? Can’t find it anywhere…..
You should collab with spites corner. I would love to see the dynamic between you two!
I’ve haven’t heard so much giggling since I went to my first dance in Junior High!! 😅
Yeah, but it's fun and makes me smile 😊.
@@gordonbetzler701 I have no doubt. Glad you enjoyed it!
30percent. Chances she keeps ya block head...!!! Lol😂😂😂😅
Very cool. I've been following Amanda over at Lloydz Garage. Cool to see how people end up meeting across different places.
im gonna start w/ a ride down to Orlando/Tampa area first....then perhaps cross country. BUT the SP is not quite as comfy as the Glides. LOL
Looks like you all had a good time. Bittsweet coincidence that loosing your phone lead to you meeting a subscriber! So is this CVO ST the next Goldzilla? Or maybe King Goldorah? Im sure Sweds will cut you a deal!👀
She is beautiful you guys look good together and I'm happy for you
Those black and gold helmets are fire
Can you please share the brand and where I can find the gloves
Such a great fuckin' clip! Both of your smiles are gold! Best of luck, to you both!
Hi , did the pant liners work well? would the heated pants on top of the liners helped? the gloves were they heated and what was the name of , as well how did the gerbering work for Amanda ? leaveing NH end of March heading to wisconsin then from there ..... thanks ,David
We typically rent from Las Vegas Harley on the strip. Curious if they would have had a Road glide to rent
Great couple, she adores you
WSKEYS on 3 here from Vegas. Sorry I missed you guys!
That phone Will Buff Out ! 😮🤘😎
I wanna see y’all do the chieftain build for your girl do that 131 kit that they offer I wanna see how it performs compared to a Harley one
I grew up eating at that exact omelete house! Great staff great food!
Start of the video is my fav weekend place to ride. Stay at lake las vegas, the strip sucks
Your Old Lady is AWESOME🤙
Just bought cardos last weekend the freecom and so far i like em
Great video!!!
Was hard to see the dash when you were running in the mid 80’s, what is the new bike taching at those speeds?
Looks like something 95 percent of us would like to do. Be safe😊
That’s not a nice thing to say about her.
Bro. I knew something was up!!! Congrats.
Lucky man, get to travel across the country.
Sucks about the phone haha. Besides that happy everyone was fine and enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the video 👊🏾
great video 11/10. got teh extra +1 for the last ten seconds. made me laugh so hard.
I hope everyone is that giddy on day 3. 😂
Stay Gold, little bird... ride safe
How many hours in the saddle between breaks?
Usually 300-500 miles 👍🏼
Bro, so sad for your phone.
However, I have dropped 4 Samsungs and 1 LG from my Harleys and have been lucky enough to watch them ALL slide on their backs with little to no bouncing and no screen cracks. Go, Android!
Do you use an app to find the BNB?
Ur gf being a cute red head that laughs alot reminds me of the chick in wedding crashers 😂
Liking the black cvo st
Need an Apple Watch so you have a backup phone on ya
If you've got few $$$ left in your jeans than you may undergo reincarnation and become a HD Eagle too.
That’s crazy. That omelette house is my neighborhood.
