A cruise up Green Mountain Road - my friend’s 1970 Triumph Bonneville

- Hello all! I have to apologize for the poor camera angle in this video, this is definitely not the best of my filming skills right here.
But I decided that since it’s my first ride with my friend, Michelle, on her right hand shift Triumph chopper then I would put the video up anyway.
Michelle just recently got her motorcycle permit, so there will hopefully be lots more rides where this came from!
I will definitely be doing another ride up this way with my camera set up properly so it captures the view properly.

We are out there my friend......
PANHEADS FOREVER ✌
My Pan is lonely also, I found a late 1970s Sportster to keep it company in the garage. When the Pan goes out it goes alone. Most of the 'riders' I have met around here just ride from one bar to the next and don't leave town.
I was pretty happy when Michelle got her licence finally! And we both have kicker only so it makes it extra interesting hahah. It’s a miracle if we both get them started within a minute of each other.
At least you got to ride with your buddy. Totally dig the Triumph chopper, has that 60's vibe. Totally "old-school" cool
It makes my day when I see women riding. Especially on two choppers.
Almost like riding the blackhills, Having coffee and BLT with tomatoes out the garden for breakfast , enjoying the video !
That’s sounds great! I love fresh tomato’s
Absolutely no apologies required, as this was, in my opinion, one of your better riding videos. Michelle's Triumph is an eye-catcher; reminds me if my of 1970, non-chopped, of course, Triumph TR6R. She rides quite well; I am eagerly awaiting more such rides!
Awesome video thanks for posting it I enjoyed it very much keep up the great work my friend stay safe be blessed
Thanks for watching! Nice to see ya in the comments again :)
I like your friends bike.
Ride Red Rider! Ride 👍👍
Both bikes are sweet as, thanks for the journey through part of Canada 👍😎😜
Glad to see you checking to see if the motors warm before you take off..
Hate doing base gashets, when they blow out..
Beautiful countryside. To you it's normal but to us it is just spectacular. It's nice you can ride with your friend. Her bike is quite nice as well. Thanks for taking us on a blast with you.its always fun.
Thank you for watching! I guess I take it for granted that I live in a place like this, I know most people don't get to enjoy the open country.
Seems good to me. There's a nice view of the road ahead without eliminating the point of view perspective of the bike that's taking us on the journey. Good balance... especially for anyone living vicariously through the video.
Thanks James 😄 Guess I was worried for nothing!
Hay bad camera
Angler not, there's some gorgeous country upu ride in . Very cool 😎
Beautiful place.
Stay safe out there ladies.
As we say down here, Gas On.......✌
I've always loved that camera angle we want to see the bike !
Nice ride. Enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting.
Love this episode!!
Nothing better than out riding with your mates!!
Any ride is a Good ride, some's just Gooder-N-others and that looked like a good one.
Even the ride I was doing when I damn near killed myself 3 years ago was good up until I went in the weeds.
Keep having fun and thanks for taking us along.
NICE !!!!
Thanks again for another great video.

That looked like a great ride! I consider any ride where there is little to no other traffic on the roads! I've always loved seeing your bike on the road, but to have a friend who rides a old Triumph chopper, well that makes a perfect bike pair for a ride. Loved the video, and I didn't think it was a poor camera angle. Made me feel like I was riding your bike and looking at that yellow Bonne straighten out the curves! Keep riding and stay safe up there in B.C.
Thank you :)
I hope you do another video with Michelle so we can take a good look at her bike. Looks like you two had a good ride. Back roads are the best roads. ✌️Ont.
I will get another vid with her as soon as we get the chance to go out together again!
I like the view. It’s like I got to take a ride on your sweet bike. 😆
I like how low the angle is, it shows the Springer doing it's thing!
Good ride guys. Thanks for bringing us along. We don't care where your camera's aimed. it was cool hearing your bike in slow mo when you met the horses. chuf chuf chuf
Sounds like a train hey!?
I loved Michelle’s Bonnie ! I just rode by last weekend, cheers 🍻 Eddie
Nice!
Wild Horses!? That's flipping awesome! Every time I catch your videos I see something else cool on your bike that I missed before. It makes me want to try something like those on my shovel. Now I can't wait until the next video to see what slick little detail you've done to your bike that I might have missed from the previous videos lol. And who couldn't like a shovel and a triumph cruising some nice scenic roads? Made me a little jealous that I missed the party lol. You two enjoy the ride. 😁😎
It is great having a friend who rides a custom, kicker only bike who I can ride with! I ride alone so often that it makes me really enjoy the times I have company, just ads so much to a ride when you have a friend or two to do it with.
@@RedRiderCanadaBC I know that feeling. I'm usually by myself 98 percent of the time too. I haven't seen any wild horses over here, but I did come up on three deer (two does and one buck). The buck was the last to leave, he was close enough that I could hear his hooves on the pavement as he ran back the way he came. He even still had the velvet on his antlers. Definitely one of the coolest experiences I've come across when I was out on the shovel. 😁
Beautiful countryside.
Two beautiful women, two beautiful bikes! I think your camera angle was perfect in the first part. It's great to see your tank and arms and it feels like the viewer is actually riding the route! Most youtube videos have the camera too high and you feel detached from the bike and it gets boring! The only problem was having the little camera on your bars where you did which obscured your friend sometimes and also we lost the fork springs going up and down which is unique and cool to see! why Michelle cross the yellow line at 9 minutes in? Look forward to more such videos!
Well that's good to know! I'm experimenting with my camera positions and will likely end up moving the camera on the bars off to the side so that it doesn't block the road. And I'm not sure why she crossed the line when she did that there hahah, I forgot to ask her when we stopped. Thanks for watching!
Had been busy but am back for the ride - thanks - utterly incredible country - what is the mound in the horizon on the right. Cool the way you stopped for the horses. a Real Garden of Eden - Please stay off the sand -
if you mean the mound that comes into view at about 10:24, that's the remnants of an old volcano.
2 friends riding no issues add cold beer perfect day
I feel like I’m riding in your lap very good angle
I always enjoyed riding side by side hollering back and forth. Bit good job.
Me too! But with newer riders I like to keep a bit of a distance lol.
KOOL RIDE RED !!!
GOOD LOOKING FRIEND, AND NICE BIKES !!!!
Thanks!
Wonderfuls Motocycles guys... Great adventures, a hug Red Rider, video fantastic🐶🇮🇹
Thanks! 😃
That’s a cool ride..👍🏻🇦🇺
Nice ride. Ny brother had a 69 and a 70 Triump Bonneville, great bikes, 69 was stock, 70 was a chopper
Would love to see details of the triumph!
Gets better every time Red!! Keep up the good work, simply amazing…. Ride free
Thanks!
I love seeing you younger gals grabbing the bull by the horns and riding your own ride. In my day rarely seen a chick not on back of her man's ride. And these old retro bikes, alive again. UA-cam allows this old fart to feel alive again. THANKS!!!
I’m happy you enjoy it!!
The camera was fine saw everything. That happens to me a lot. Usually my fault lol. Great ride thanks.
Thanks for the video.
Nice ride.
Wish you had another rider taking video of you 2.
A couple fine scooters and a beautiful day, who could ask for more!
Cool thanks for sharing
BigFoots and Wild Horses,,,Nice
Camera angle was fine sweetheart !! Loved the ride !!
Awesome!
that was a nice ride.
I am in a bit of riding.
yes, it would be nice to ride like that again.
well , who knows ?
greetings from germany
Glad you enjoyed it!
klondike kat, at eight mins. forty9 seconds,,klondike kat might be there............awesome, i havnt ridden in going on two years; injured, getting back surgery, hopefully this winter; love your handlebars........
I hope you can get back up and going soon
Две прекрасные амазонки!
Cool 😎 i like your style .
Beautiful ride. The best shot was at the end when you showed that smile on your face while you're riding!!
Hi, I would like to see a short feature on the triumph. Cool video as usual.
I like the riding videos. It looks nice up there in Canukville.
It’s pretty nice for sure
Beautiful day, on a ride with a friend...........priceless.
Nice ride and nice Triumph, I had an oil in frame Bonneville years ago. It had a big bore kit on it and was pretty quick, probably because it didn't weigh much, lol. Sold it to get a shovel FLH that turned out to be stolen and I got screwed out of my money.
Man that suck! I hate hearing about people getting ripped off like that.
💯👍looked fun!
Red thanks for the ride, I love getting to view the scenery and not being the one having to watch the road at the time, it’s relaxing to ride as a passenger. I painted my first bike the same yellow as your friends Bonnie V. Got a 1969 Honda cl350 in 1975 for $100 US ashen I was 15 spent the year rebuilding it, until I got my drivers license on my 16 Bday, it was the very first year Florida even offered a motorcycle license they had not even added a test for motorcycles. I hell rambling again. Bye now on the flip.
Born to ride!
You got some nice riding country up there
Good ride with your buddy! Nice road, the Green Mountain Road were I grew up is still gravel!
I thought the camera angle was just right , I imagined myself as a
little squirrel tucked in your pocket 🐿
How cool is that Red. I wait weeks to see you ride. Nice one.
The whole video appears to be shot on what Caroline from Bunny King Hogs calls her "Boob Cam". Not complaining, still some great footage, and just love hearing those vintage motors singing the song of their people.
Very picturesque ride, love the wild horses, all we got over the pond is sheep. Wish you girls would wear some arm protection, I know it’s hot but I’ve seen some severe gravel rash, just saying . Ride safe, regard’s from across the pond
Thanks for watching, Michael!
dunno how eye missed dis!
🤔
go red go!
✌😘✌
I don’t know either 🧐 lol
@@RedRiderCanadaBC 😁
It looks Cool,!!-,on my 85"inch TV,,💖,but, ONE day soon,, i will just head North ,
on my roadking to see The MOUNTAINS" ,its soo flat in south Louisiana,,the speed bumps make me Dizzy,,lol.-Happy Trails ya,ll-🤓👍
I'm from Nova Scotia and just love Louisiana. I'm hoping to get back again someday.
My favorite road .I had a close call going across the cattle guard just going up apex road
Looks like a nice ride
Two cool women on two cool vintage bikes. Did Michelle build that Triumph herself? I'd like to see more of that bike. Is your front brake cable rubbing on the tire? I'd put a bracket or something on that right fork to get move that cable a little bit.
Brake cable looks good, if it was rubbing Red would deal with it ! And of course her Dad be sure of that !
the brake line doesn't rub. it just looks like that when the bike is parked. it's solid mounted to the frame because the master cylinder is under the gas tank.
it's a braided stainless teflon line and it's not real flexible
It don’t rub
@@o.u.t.olduglytroll3712 That's good. Its such a cool bike. You two did a great job on it.
Dave, she had it built by a friend. And I will make a point of doing another video with Michelle where I show off her bike too.
I liked the camera angle. I prefer to see your hands, bars etc and we can still see plenty of the road and sky ahead. It's the perfect angle! If I was your dad, I'd be so happy to know that you don't like to ride fast and aggressive but slow and easy. Much safer. Not how I rode lol. Was pretty much full throttle at least a few times each ride. Love acceleration.
Great ride, as usual. Looking forward to seeing the new and improved ride
A Shovelhead Harley at a real Triumph way to go ladies!
👍😄
@@RedRiderCanadaBC in the old days I taught over a dozen women how to ride a motorcycle by using my TR6 Triumph with a hardtail frame. It's at low to the ground so they could sit flat-footed and confident and it was light as a feather. I went with Triumph shop they had a custom Triumph for sale but everybody wants to buy mine so they had to put a sign on my motorcycle seat saying this motorcycle is not for sale every time I came back they said Frank you just missed it so beautiful girl with sitting on your bike and wanted to buy my mechanic got pissed because nobody wanted to buy his. Your lady friend has a cool Triumph not that your bike is cool but I love Triumph
My Harley was yellow before yellow was cool...and has been yellow since 1989... Killer see....lol
That ride is like heaven compared to living in the lower mainland
Michelle's bike is cool
Had a Norton / Triumph bike brought to my place in the 1970’s - It would not start. Had all the needed elements to run, just nothing. That was a kickstart workout. Gave it back to owner… Sometimes I think other folks just want to test one’s; *lack of skill / experience* . Being a young person then, did not mind the challenges. Humbling experience. (Not every engine is a Briggs and Stratton lawn mower engine). 😆
And every engine kicks different I have found.
It’s fine the video and you’re bike sounds great!!! 💯🤘🏻🤘🏻🤙🏻
Awesome!
Yes ma'ams 🌹
Love your videos, you should lead next time.😊
That look like fun I miss riding I had to sell my bike because of some heavy property tax’s owed no fun 😍🐰😋
Camera is just fine.
Great video!
It's always the most fun to ride out in the country.
Hey... I'm a little worried by your front brake hose... It looks like it can get rubbed by the tire.
Be careful with that, Mmmmkay?
Cheers!
Mmmmkay!
Nothing wrong with the camera angle in this video and the sound from the bikes alone is worth the watch. Are you going to do a feature video in the future on your friend’s Triumph?
I plan to do a video with her and show her bike off a bit in it.
Cool bike
kewl ride.. cheers
🍻
Nice trumpet ")
Reminds me of the days when I lived in SoCal in the 70's. My bikes were a 56 Panhead and I also had a 70 Triumph 650 Bonneville. Both hardtail choppers. Loved it but I will never do that again.
Why not?
That really wasn't bad at all, Red. I video'd a ride for a friend and she got to watch my speedo after about 2 minutes or so for the rest of the ride 🤦♂️. That's what I got for taping the cell phone to my jacket... 😔. Needed a go pro. Oh well. I didn't mind looking over that cool Springer at all though 👍
Lol GoPro helps a lot 😉
Thanks for watching!
I love the steam engine sound your shovelhead in the slow motion shots. Oh, was there any steampunk influence in the build, very cool unique.
It was a little steampunk inspired lol
it's fine!!! 👍👍
Loving your videos! Thankyou for not putting music to your rides 😆. Your bike is killer! … I’d love to see a “white lake road“ ride
I plan on doing White Lake road some time soon!
I can't speak for everyone.but I think I'd like check out more videos of you and your chopper friends bonnieville .or it could just be me I have a 72 bonnieville . also digging the intro music red .
I will definitely be filming more with her when I can!
I wanna go!
😎👍
Adorei o passeio. BR
👍
You have some beautiful country up there in Canada...I would enjoy coming to Canada sometime and going for a ride with you...I was going to mention that your brake line looked to be rubbing your tire but, your dad explained that...nice ride I enjoyed that...keep the shiny side up ✌
Thanks Junior! If you are ever in western Canada then we can ride, if my bike is up for it that is!
@@RedRiderCanadaBC That would be nice...thanks for the cool videos keep up the good work ✌
First bike I ever owned was a Triumph Bonneville. Man that bike didn't like me. I could ride my dad's jockey shift Indian Chief with no problem
I lived on Green Mountain Road in Colton, Oregon! Known for Christmas trees, dirt bike riding an big foot sightings. Guy on Green Mtn. Rd. raises buffalo an elk. They are fun too watch, just don't touch electric fence!
Thats so cool, Buffalo are huge! And taste good 🤭
He has pair of elk, so one year I took pictures of his horns growing out to huge size, that was cool!
Looks like you’re front brake line is rubbing on your tire🥰
the brake line doesn't rub. it just looks like that when the bike is parked. it's solid mounted to the frame because the master cylinder is under the gas tank.
it's a braided stainless teflon line and it's not real flexible
@@o.u.t.olduglytroll3712 just making sure
