Your attitude, and "can do" philosophy make this an exciting video set. This video set (loop of br.drms 1&2) are full of exposure, technical, and incredible views. I appreciate these and past videos for skill building, and basic keeping it cool under difficult conditions Love It!!
King of the goat trails! You’re buddy on point is a good leader. I like that he stops to make sure you’re good. That’s what I call a, sleep like a baby ride. When you can’t really walk the next day, you know it was a good ride😂
Definitely a good dude to ride with. On days like this I will not ride with anyone who isn’t looking for the full group. Too many scary spots that stuff can happen
This was one of my favorite videos lol. I am planning a trip out west April or May 2023 and picking where from your videos. Greetings from the Ozarks part of Arkansas.
SoCal has a couple fun sports but most the good stuff out west will be in AZ or UT. Not exactly sure where you’re heading but message me on IG if you need a hand at all
Love your channel. I am 55 and have ridden street bikes all my life, but really wanting a dirt bike. Won't be tackling anything this tough, but watching you really makes me want to get out.
First off, great riding on your part Travis! Watched both parts more than once. Hopefully no nightmares tonight! You know? The falling ones! Great video as always.
2am watching this video. That’s a bad ass trail defendant above my level and you guys make it look easy. Seams like Nate is fearless!! Thanks for sharing bud
Travis these cheeks were clenched just watching you. I relate with you about being in "scared mode" haha. Part of this sport is for sure mental. Editing the footage and seeing how close to the edges I was is when I freak myself out. Thanks for sharing.
That area is so huge. Just when you think you are at the bottom of the mountain you really aren't. Nate is a badass. Of course he is familiar with the area and that counts for a lot less mental and physical fatigue.
Man you got some huge nuts. That area is my favorite place to ride (have not been back where you went though). Been riding a ton for the last two years and have improved immensely. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to ride that stuff. The views look amazing!
Much better than Bad Situations - probably less in your head and different bike setup? I like how you added some rider tips in this video like using your clutch as a brake on steep descents. Hopefully you can get a boot sponsor. Great vid/riding Travis...thanks!
props to you Travis, I couldn't get my friends to do stuff like this. Maybe if i didn't tell them before hand? Maybe I wouldn't have any friends after that? Anyways I'm jealous that you have friends that can challenge you like this! This is the adrenaline junky stuff i live for!
Old video, but don't be afraid of your front brake going downhill, you can drag it and it will slow you down and keep you from building up too much speed.
Who TF would give this a thumbs down SMH! Good stuff. If you're not up for it I'll shut up... @18:55 watch Nate approach the waterfall, by the bush on the right at the approach he's already more on the throttle and has way more momentum going in, then just applies some more throttle as needed to get up without spinning. Try rotating your throttle arm forward just a tad on sections like this, it will make it easier to get into the throttle more without putting your elbow down and getting you out of an attack position, and make it easier to gain speed. Entry speed and momentum as you know is key or you fight it the whole way. Cheers.
Travis, as you glance down that rock gully, "There's some consequences right there, I'm definitely in my scared mode right now" fucking priceless. Appreciate ya brah!
Eventually, you'll be taking SubD up there. You'll be the Master and he'll be the Padawan, pooping his pants! You were definitely more prepared this time vs, your first ride out there going the other direction. Great video! As good as Part 1!
Every Single Sunday i’m camping in the Dragoon mountains right now, there’s some super sick trails here. A lot of old mine roads and trails going everywhere. Check out Joe rock stars channel I just did one of the trails he’s done, china camp trail, It’s not super tough I would call it a 6 or 7 out of 10.
Jawbone sure does have some fun riding. You should have dropped into moon rock canyon. Some pretty fun nasty suff down there too. Me and my brother dropped down there last weekend. We dropped in around the 8:25 mark. Fun stuff
I bet you were beat after that ride, good job. If I recall in your other videos you are 30 something and around 250 lbs. That ride is for younger and lighter guys, good job dude. I have the SIDI boots but with the sewn sole. Just have to watch the steel toe piece from getting wasted as time goes by. Once that thing is gone it is over.
Ya, I’ve been in SG12s for the past year or so now and have to replace the tow cap when it’s worn. My first pair I let go too long and now I’m smarter about it I’m 39 and 245. It’s good for lifting the bike at times but being fat sucks. I was down to 230 but broke my ankle last October and it’s been a bear trying to get back down again when I still can’t run or ride as much as I want to
@@EverySingleSunday I hear ya. I'm 210 lbs. and 63 years. Knarlest ride I've done lately is from Gorman to East Frasier trail to What a trail to Lockwood creek to Halfmoon camp ground down Piru Creek. Got lost after turning right into Wilderness had to climb of wire cable fence to get out and head back in reverse. Met 3 nice guys on the trail so 5 of us. Brought premix in and people gave me gas. 98 miles out from 8am to 4pm. All single track. I was in survival mode coming back. 2000' Honda CR250R.
I think your buddies are colluding with each other, taking you through the nightmare sections of the Vertical Playground, to get you to purchase a Recluse Auto-clutch since you don’t like‘m lol. Those down hills covered in decomposed granite rock is about an 11 on the sketch meter. Thanks for sharing. PS I bet you, at least during some of that ride, wished you were riding in Red Rock Canyon with ADV Squared 😉
Lol Mr. Squared. Not dogging on you, I subscribed to you too and like your videos. Funny thing is, if I still lived in Ca. I’d like to go riding with you both. Although I’d gladly pass on the Trail of Broken Nightmare Dreams 👍
ADVsquared, that would be cool and I’d take you up on it. I’m well versed in the trails in and around the Jawbone / Dove Springs area, but don’t know the Red Rock area too well. My brother and I head out to that area once every couple of years, and if we head out there I’ll contact you. If you ever plan to come out to Arizona, we can show you some great Sonora Desert single track. Type in “Doorbin Five” into you UA-cam search and you can see some of the stuff we do in AZ out at the Mile Markers near Wickenburg AZ (videos are from December 2019 and Jan. 2020) The videos are from a friend of mine ( I’m the guy on the Husky 2T 300.)
I know the camera often makes things look tighter and more narrow than they really are and never really shows how steep the terrain is, but that's some rocky sketchy stuff right there! I hate to say it, but most of that ride doesn't even look like fun to me!
holy stomach ache batman! damn my hands are sweaty from watching some of that nonsense, absolutely love how honest you are with your commentary-i know i have said some of the same things to myself following buddies... keep it up, dig what you are doing!!!
@@EverySingleSunday yup. both of them made my stomach hurt. i also liked where you pointed out that you were going backwards on a trail that you had done before where one of your buddies helped you up by pulling on the front fender, when i saw the spot it looked familiar but then it hit me that it was from that OTHER video that made my stomach hurt... hahahaha!!!! and i know it is sooooo much gnarlier in person because of the "go pro effect". dude keep posting the videos-they are great!!!
I've been hearing about problems with the Sidi boots and soles (and some other parts) coming apart prematurely. I'm curious hold old the boots are and how many hours on them. I've probably got 250+ hours on my Gaerne SG12 boots and they're still holding up well.
These probably had 140+ hours on them. And a lot of hiking one stuff they aren't really designed for. But, I also don't feel a boot should fail like that. I have a new pair now, same boot. Hopefully last for another 150 hours or so
@@rztrzt I keep looking at new boots thinking these ones must be close to wearing out, but they never seem to. I do still need to replace one of the metal toe caps, and had to replace a buckle, but other than that, they are great.
@@EverySingleSunday Haha found it on goog earth my lips are sealed! I already knew where to start though kinda cheating. Just a long haul from the PNW if you come up this way look me up or @Dagster Blaster we'll show you around.
If that looked like child's play to you, than I'm a little worried for your children! That was some high consequence, technical riding right there. I do similar terrain (not as intense) in Arizona. You talk heavy brush and uneveness, try dodging in and out of saguaro and Cholla cacti and up and down slot canyons with loose gravel washes. Shits a blast!
I think probably more important is not to ride down a hill you don't think you'll be able to make back up. Worst case with riding up something is you can bulldog it or drag the bike down it. If you can't make it up, you don't have a lot of options left (unless you've got enough riders in the group to pull the bike(s) back up it.) A lot of these hills (and drop-offs) would scare the crap out of me.
Just curious, all the videos I watch everyone wears a backpack. This must be a new thing that we never did back in the 80's. Of coarse, we were not going miles back into the bush. What do you guys carry in them?
I usually have 3 liters of water for sure. Big rides, sometimes 5. My tool kit, spare camera gear, and a first aid kit. Maybe a light Jacket as well. All just depends on the day
It's does, just depends on how you ride and what your level is and what you weigh. You can make anything work just fine but a 300 shines when you need low end
5:26 - In your "scared mode"... I don't blame you one bit! That only means you have good ole fashioned horse sense. The camera just doesn't do the steepness justice. It was kind of funny how you had to tell yourself "keep your feet on the pegs", when human instinct says keep your feet on the ground. As for Nate waiting on you - very smart move on your part. Again... good horse sense. This was some difficult, but awesome riding footage. So, what have we learned here today? It's definitely time for some new boots! Shoe Goo just won't get the job done this time. Thanks for the video, I really enjoyed it. "Thumbs up" from this Kentucky boy.
Pffft, Cody Webbs head is so big im surprised he can lean over that far without face planting 😂,, I have enjoyed watching you evolve as a rider. Just keep doin what ure doin bro, seems every video you’re getting better and better. And remember, the riders that suffer the worst injuries are the ones who never learned how to crash. 🤘 Pro Tip 3: no matter how steep the hill, it only takes one try to get to the bottom...same can be said in life😉
I use the front brake a ton. Just depends on the situation and what the train and steepness looks like Some of these two cents are so soft and steep that you cannot touch the front brake
Ive actually gone through another pair of Sidi Boots since this was shot a few months back. I have a pair of SG12's coming later this week. I ride a ton and destroy stuff quickly
One good thing about a 4stroke (out of the many good things) going down hill you can actually use the engine to help keep you slow, and a rekluse clutch is for people who don't want to learn to use a reg clutch, cheaters, learn how to use a clutch people
Decided to stay withy current 300 and pick up an adventure bike this year. Still super impressed with nthe Sherco but the numbers didn't work to get one

Thanks so much. These rides definitely get in my head but are the best
I bet you burned 3x as much energy as Nate. He’s relaxed,having fun, knows what’s coming next, knows he can make it because he did it before.
I know how to make it a good workout 😉💪
That was some legit stuff, like how honest you are with the commentary. Glad I’m not the only one thinking that stuff while I’m out there! Great vid
King of the goat trails! You’re buddy on point is a good leader. I like that he stops to make sure you’re good. That’s what I call a, sleep like a baby ride. When you can’t really walk the next day, you know it was a good ride😂
Definitely a good dude to ride with. On days like this I will not ride with anyone who isn’t looking for the full group.
Too many scary spots that stuff can happen
It's cool that you openly admit to the anxiety you feel at times versus narrating things after the fact and acting tough.
We all have those days. Not embarrassed about them at all

Wow that was an awesome ride n video 😀🏍️ well done Travis 😀🏍️ from north of England Uk
As someone that's just starting out with dirt bikes and a 300 TPI, I love watching your videos. Hoping I can ride as good some day.
As long as you're having fun and improving, that's all that matters.
Have fun
Awesome 👍 this is what it's all about

Way too crazy for this enduro rider . Wow you guys are good 👍👍
Holy NMfE..!! That's No Margin for Error.... ;) Congrats on conquering Broken Dreams
I'm not riding and I think it's scary AF your a professional compared to me love watching you ride and narrate totally awesome brother
Clutch as a brake for downhills looks like a good technique - will give it a try. You rode terrain I would never attempt and kept at it!

I don’t think I would have gone if they told me either 😂
Intense. Great ride but crazy intense areas.
Im just glad it went well :)
That's intense for sure
I can honestly say I've never seen a chain come off a dirt bike before. That was some gnarly stuff. Nice ride man!
Happened to me a few times.
Unfortunately, it happens.ack of maintenance it was a bit loose.
That and being pushed sideways by a rock will take it right off
Love the videos mate . Amazing skills !!!! Treat yourself to some new boots 👍
Already got some. Thanks 😊
Old video, but don't be afraid of your front brake going downhill, you can drag it and it will slow you down and keep you from building up too much speed.
I’m definitely not afraid to be on the brakes downhill. But these hills are massive an extremely steep.

It amazes me how well that bike lugs down. I may have to consider one. Instead of my crf450r for an Enduro bike.

Been down that road 3 times. Bought a new pair after this one
where you riding? looks amazing.

It’s definitely steeper and rockier than it looks. Awesome training for hard enduro
Looks like it could be time for new boots. lol
Hard charging or not you're obviously an expert rider.
I'm definitely not an expert
another awesome freakin video. yeah i like tech stuff but that kinda stuff i'll leave to you because i have no electric start so that be no good.

How high is that For there to be snow on the ground but what a Beautiful place to ride
Wasn't super high. I can't remember exactly but I think you can see the elevation in my GPS at times during the video
What kind oif bikes are you guys riding?
300 2T KTMs and Huskys
Got that #BikeBenchPress on lock
Dude, coming from the east coast where we have heavy brush, rocks and uneven terrain, the west coast seems like child's play...
The camera plays tricks and makes things look way less difficult. You should come out here and try it. 👍
If that looked like child's play to you, than I'm a little worried for your children! That was some high consequence, technical riding right there. I do similar terrain (not as intense) in Arizona.

A good friend told me don’t climb a hill and less you’re willing to ride down it I feel that is so true
I think probably more important is not to ride down a hill you don't think you'll be able to make back up. Worst case with riding up something is you can bulldog it or drag the bike down it.

Where is this? Between the desert and big bear? Out in the bartow area?
Do you think a 250 xcw has enough luggable tractor power for this kinda place? I know your 300 will do it. But how about a 250?

Resprocket your chain in forward direction so your not grinding the guts out of your chain guide. Or keep it at the proper tension 😂
I watched Cody Webb do it once ... And he went backwards (same direction as me)
Kinda blew my mind, but that's why I did it that way
Pffft, Cody Webbs head is so big im surprised he can lean over that far without face planting 😂,,

Pro Tip 3: no matter how steep the hill, it only takes one try to get to the bottom...same can be said in life😉
@@orijinalgamesta9738 Thanks man. Only been back on the bike a couple years after a decade off. Learning new stuff every time I ride
Shitting my pants for the whole video man
.....btw.....all videos SHOULDBETHISGOOD!
I was wore out after watching this one.
you should do a video on your moto van if you haven't already !
I want to get it built out a bit more. It's still really basic inside. Bed, some chemical storage, and a few seats.
Every Single Sunday gotcha gotcha , currently saving up to buy/build one
Do you not use any front break
I use the front brake a ton. Just depends on the situation and what the train and steepness looks like
Some of these two cents are so soft and steep that you cannot touch the front brake
Let me know if you ever at carniggie near tracy California there’s a lot of steep stuff like that
I’m going to start bringing duct tape for issues like your boot . Lol
Any sponsors want to step up and supply our buddy Travis with a new pair of MX boots?
I need all the help I can get
You need a new brand of boot!! Have you tried Gaerne? They have toe caps!! Great Video!!
Ive actually gone through another pair of Sidi Boots since this was shot a few months back. I have a pair of SG12's coming later this week. I ride a ton and destroy stuff quickly
Every Single Sunday You will LOVE your G12s!!! Hope they last longer for you!! Keep the videos coming they are VERY WELL DONE!!!!

Nice and Crazy, i think you Need Go buy one new boot 😉

little duct tape,some super glue boots will be like new
Everyone please comment and subscribe. Travis needs some new boots. 😄. Seems to be a common problem w the newer Sidi boots.
Nope...
Not even on the GSXR?
I think you would do better with a rekluse than you think but completly respect your opinion
One good thing about a 4stroke (out of the many good things) going down hill you can actually use the engine to help keep you slow, and a rekluse clutch is for people who don't want to learn to use a reg clutch, cheaters, learn how to use a clutch people
Lets see a review of some knee braces and ride hook pegs.
Not familiar with those pegs? Are they just a standard peg
Vid reminds me I am such a cream puff.
As long as you’re having fun and challenging yourself it doesn’t matter what you are riding
What happened to owning a SHERCO?
Decided to stay withy current 300 and pick up an adventure bike this year. Still super impressed with nthe Sherco but the numbers didn't work to get one
Shit is Gnar!
