- My first ever E bike experience, a friend asked me to join him on a 400km journey through the Southwest of Australia, so I borrowed the new Yamaha Moro. With a spare battery each, a few tools, clothes, energy snacks, a change of clothes, water bladder, wallet and phone, we took on the great Munda Biddi trail !

You've opened up a whole new world of 2 wheeled fun now Adam, I've seen that look so many times when you fully realize how much fun you can have on the E-Train. Welcome aboard buddy :)
After years of pedalling and carrying bikes up mountains and riding down stuff I couldn’t walk down, this channel is part of what has inspired me to start working towards my motorbike license. I’m very excited to ride off-road without having to pedal.
So to see you so excited to go the other way is just perfectly timed. Certainly looks like the skills are transferable so that gives me some confidence.
After only recently getting my Motorcycle Permit and riding my CRF 250 exclusively since I can tell you that going back onto a MTB bike is very different and still a of fun. If anything I have more confidence throwing around my small MTB bike after riding my Dual Sport. All the best with getting your Motorcycle license.
The first thing my instructor asked me when I called him to book lessons was, "Can you ride a bicycle?"
After watching this I have a desire to incorporate “old Son” into my speech. Great adventure and display of brotherhood.
Oh Hell Yeah!! Had do double check i was on ARiemann1 when this popped up. :)
Mountainbiking got me into dual sport.. and i love them both.. At 53.. the ebike tech is out there always pulling on my heartstrings.
Glad to see you can cover 60K with gear! Your channel always impresses me!
Love your videos, as a fellow cyclist and somone who used to sell them, remove the reflectors, they will snap off anyway and possibly take a spoke with them or really rough trails. Keep it up.
I come to ARiemann for the moto, but every two-wheeler should take a summer and ride, and I mean pedal, the Divide mountain bike route in North America. No greater two-wheeled experience in the world. Life altering. Beautiful every day. Remote. Very physically challenging, but not technical, unless you count the weight pushing you around downwards and resisting every inch upwards. I've done it twice by mountain bike and I'm doing it again by moto (800-year-old knee) to "widen" the exploration. I feel like I've cheated the experience side of life, especially with any motor besides myself now attached to an uphill lol
Create the time and opportunity for extended travel and go. Create your own pilgrimage. You will never regret it
if someone can break through the stigma of cyclist vs motorbikes its Adam, having raced pushies in europe for 6 years and the experince I have from that I would never of dreamed of buying a Rhino as my first ever motorbike 1,5 years ago at my age. "Motorbike Riders make for great Cyclists, Cyclists make even better Motorbike Riders IMHO." I have family in Perth Adam hope to see you on one of the trails one day !
Somewhere back in the early 80's I was impressed when Stephen Gall rode a road bicycle back to Sydney from Tivoli, Ipswich the Mr Moto Cross round enough to get back into cycling ... MTBiking arrived not long after and wow what an exsplosion or people and technology...Food is good :)
It's great to hear the the term "chicken legs" seems to be universal throughout the realm, though "push bike" is new to me. My chicken legs got me sponsored on pushbikes from 2000 through 2015, so don't think of it as a negative term. Cheers!
What an absolute motivator you are well done,
Great addition to your channel. I didn't realise Yamy were making e-bikes, the price looks reasonable based on the performance. Until I rode my brother in law's ebike (Specialized) I couldn't get my head around the purpose of an electric mountain bike. Needless to say, I was sold on the idea however the purchase has to wait due to prioritising the upgrade of my Yz250 MY2000 to a GasGas 300 (I'm approaching 50 and the YZ was too much effort these days). With that said, I suspect you could present and produce a knitting show and somehow you'd still make it entertaining. Many thanks Adam & Ben! ps. Please don't start knitting.
Welcome onboard on the adventures called bikepacking. I really hope you got properly bitten by the bug so those of us who are into that kind of adventure gets more content like this. Cheers mate!
WOW that drone scene from 20:26 to 20:54 was an epic one!! Sketchy obstacles but your DJI made it through but I thought at 20:43 it was gonna hit the tree. What an incredible job!! Thanks for documenting this journey!! Love from Italy
'Im not that fit' - mate are you kidding me! You're fitter than most 👍
Epic trails and scenery!
Nice video A-dog. I'm a bit jelly that the Munda Biddi is in your back yard - tried to get over from Vic a few years back but COVID got in the way, might try to do it in 2024. Great work on your videos.
I’m a big fan of the eebs, had mine since 2019 and had many a decent excursion 👌🏻
There an old English adventurer that’s sponsored by Yamaha. He’s riding a yammie e-bike around the world at the moment. He broken records on bicycles, R1’s teneres and now working on the RTW e-bike record.
His name is nick sanders.
Had an e-bike 6 years now myself. Love it every time I ride and give beets exercise than normal bike cause speed equals fun so you ride longer 👍🏻
Thanks for sharing this. Really hope to see more of emtb footage :-)
loved the relaxing video vibes
Only just found your channel recently, as soon as you said, "it's mint" I thought, you gotta be an old West Aussie! I have done small sections of the Munda Biddi, but around the Dwelly area. Pemberton onwards looks fun. I like the idea of e-biking, need to talk one of my mates into doing it!
silent and stealthy workouts for improving my moto game.
No rest for the wicked mate is there anything you won’t give a go.
That was a lot of km on a bike even though electric Over 4 days looks like you had some good fun
Well done
Hope you get some time off now mate enjoy all the best
Thanks
Dave
It's just good fun.The trail network is down the end of my street. I didn't get my Dr650 out for 5 years after i got my Emtb,and still love it.
Back on the bush pig now....
Doing 400kms in 4 days means you have decent fitness and stamina already. Great video Adam. I do a lot of cycling......road, mtn bike and Emtn bike and they're all great sports and they all contribute to bike handling skills. As the motor bike has helped your mtn bike ability immensely. I'm still thinking about getting an adventure bike and your videos aren't putting me off it. 🤣🤣 Well done. That was seriously amazing.
Cheers mate. Took a day to wind up the cardio again but what an awesome experience.
Hmmm… hopefully the next episode is braaaap again ❤
How great vision of life you have, my teacher
I can't say I ever watched a bicycle video before but I figured if Riemann was going to produce one I'd give it a go although I'll probably not watch another one. A bit to quiet for me. It was still a good watch though. Thanks.
Nice to see you spread out on 2 wheels. I've been mtb'er fo 29 years, also ride eMTB and dualsport moto. MTB is great if you have better trails.
Adventure E-Bike riding.... nice
Your yellow belly snake is a tiger snake, common as out there and yep, lethal if you're not prepared. Sweet video, makes me want an ebike 👍🏻
Amazing
Awesome! a bit more quite than the usual braap ;)
good job Gents! Just doing it for balance keeps you sharp for any Motor bike Ime. Bloody good bit country you took us through there as well.
😂 super, no that’s a 1290 KTM 😅, well done man, also do the TREK E-Bike….good fun Adam ! 👍🏻
mate i can see 3 million subscribers if you combined you usual vlogs with every thing else with handle bars imagine cross country world tour on e bikes full electric dirt bike and even wave runners and jetski's you would go from legend status too god
Some of that looked almost as fast as being on an enduro bike. Great to see. Im familiar with the Yamaha motor as they used in Giants EBike lineup, but now doing their own bikes, what is the bike like?
Great vid. The backtrails in almost silence. Have to check with my Yammie dealer about one of those. Lot of friends have them of different makes but not on the level of the Yammie. Happy Holidays.
Adam, we'll have to get you onto a DH bike & hit up some of the awesome tracks around Perth & the SW. You'd love it!
Way to dive in head first, nice work!
very cool! now I want to ride my bike, but it's night and cold outside :))
The mundi opens up a whole like opportunity for mtb bikers, a great secret from foreigners.👍👍
Big fan from India 🇮🇳
Just checked out the Munda Bibbi trail on Trailforks. That’s a pretty decent trail.
More pure pedal power, but with added zest. Nice.
You have the best wife period. You get to do your stuff whenever and wherever you want. #livingthedream
Never seen a drone track that fast apart from a skydio.which one is it?
It sound's like a DJI
Great film. I recently bought a KTM emtb and love it. I reckon I enjoy a ride out on it as much as riding my 1250 GSA and I burn a few calories 💪
This video is great timing. I bought one of these last week instead of another enduro bike and it's proving to be an absolute (quiet) blast 😁
I'm an e-bike convert also. Stuck a Bafang 750W mid drive motor in my Giant XTC hard tail MTB, now it gets me uphill a lot faster. The whole kit including battery cost me £600. Bargain.
Another surprise😉
Well, the good e-MtB are just like small motorbikes. And they cost as much 😅 but good to see you having fun 😂
Merry Christmas 🎄
Mt. Biking is a blast!! If you're ever in the states, stop by Moab Utah and rent a full suspension!!
I've looked at e-bikes but just can't. When I want to give these emaciated old pins some work I just don't want assistance. To me that just defeats the purpose. I might make myself a bicycle trailer over the break so I can tow one of my kayaks. Would love to get myself to Nelson (450km away) and back on bicycle with kayak, camping gear and food via what I believe is the highest through road in the country. Turn 60 in a couple of months and I'm just not getting any younger.
Have watched loads of your moto videos as they are top notch. Surprised on the emtb content. I think it's great.
The emtb takes the larger part of most mtb rides that just about everyone hates, the climb, and makes it fun.
Now the climb which are normally 2/3 or 3/4 part of the ride becomes a fun, searching out tech climbs to push the limits make the whole ride fun and not just the DH portion.
Have fun with it. Expect to see more content on this now that you have your first taste.
You need to ride Nannup tank 7 trails. You'd kill it!
i just looked at the cost of one of those e-bikes in the UK. just as well i was sat down. £4300. I would want an engine in it for that price. Brilliant vlog as always
You can get a Bafang mid drive motor kit that will fit any mountain bike for around £650 including the battery. Those factory ebikes cost a small fortune.
Got me a EMTB last year wish ID have donne it few years ago, saves the knees and gets you to the downs with more in the tank :) , would be interesting to know your Kwh in the yammy to your mates, mine is a 900w by Canyon.
As a 40 year bicycle mechanic, all I wanted to do was rip the reflectors and dork disc off that yamaha! EBikes are fun, really enjoy mine as well as my DR650 rally.
Some really great drone shots .. enjoyed the video Adam .. keep them up ..
What kind of drone do you use?
PLEASE ADAM, without even watching - please don't go down that road!!! Please give us some raw two-stroke. Barky and dirty.
Naa, all good mate. Your content is nice as always but I personally am struggeling big time with all the electric bla bla out there... Thank you for this years great films. Keeps me reminded that there is always an adventure waiting out there... Thank you!
Adam as a knife multitool enthusiast I must ask what item of cutting did you bring with you on this journey besides the mentioned items in the backpack? Loved this video.
I bought a Hard tail Ebike from Gaint.. spent about £1000 on upgrades like wheels and front suspension, I lost 3 stone in 4 months and I love it too bits.
It would be great to have charges on downhills 😀
i SUSPECT THE PLUGS WERE FOULED. lol. MERRY CHRISTMAS to all
Hell yeah. I've never wanted an 'ebike' per se but an electric motorcycle? Sure.
9:05 mtb fun starts when roads end...
Just got my EMTB a Rocky Mountain power play 3 weeks ago and loving it ,purists would say you can’t get fit on a e-bike I beg to differ feeling fitter already plus there’s more motivation to jump on a e-bike than a analog one 😂
Planning on some bike packing trips too
Great video very entertaining!
id recommend trying a bike with a bosch or brose motor , they feel a bit more punchy than the other motors
Dirt bike riders make better supermoto and motogp riders.
Mountain bike riders make better dirt bike riders.
The big man’s carrying plenty spare fuel on his person!
Awesome job. I love seeing moto riders cross over to the dark side. I went the opposite way and bought an ebike before a moto.
Everyone should give ebike riding a try 👌
I sense the motorcycle subscribers will be upset by this method of transport 😅
I still enjoy a quick spin on my bicycle. Throw on some lights and its good for some early morning cardio!
I had a small stint off motorbikes and came back.
I honestly think motos are better exercise, if you're in the bush dodging rutts and throwing a motorbike around 👌
Can we expect to see you at the next downhill state round? 🤙🏼
What path are you taking
🤙👍
Ebikes looks nice... Emotorcycles well... i guess i´ll miss the exhaust sound
In my 20's I once did 97km in a hot summer day nearby Mumbai. I returned home a true zombie!!
Nice . 40 km may be no 400 . thank you . !
As a Canadian, I have no idea how I would react to seeing a snake like that cross my path.
ah yeh the ole Gloucester tree climbed her when i was 10 years old mate
E-mtb’s are definitely blurring the lines between motos & “pushies” as you lot call ‘em. That Yamaha have ventured in is case in point. I remain true to my analog roots when it comes to pedals & have yet to embrace the battery revolution. Bloody things can cost as much as a good moto Such dinosaurs are now getting referred to as “the Amish” by my e-bike converted friends.
@@benm468 ya fair enough & agreed, if I’m dropping that much coin it better have a twist grip & make a lot more noise. E-bikes seem too ripe for planned obsolescence & techno outdated upselling too. Not to mention, at least one friend had his burn down their house while charging. I’ll be staying Amish for the foreseeable future.
I looks like fueling the rider is more expensive than fueling a big ADV bike.😁
Noooooooooo. Fox and Alpine Star don’t do Lycra for a reason.
The only problem with emtb is the prices.
I’m not a guy that watches Emtb videos - yet I am.
why electric? Good old hard tail 😉
Nope! Back to motors! 😂
Well now, an E bike huh!
I’m actually tuning up my mtn bike so I can get in better shape for my ADV and enduro rides. Wish it was electric too.
Thanks for the content Adam!
Always enjoyable.
Take care!
🏍️💨
Who builds these tracks? They don’t pay rego, we do and hardly do any on road riding. In America you can pay a trail riding tax each year and they maintain all the tracks. I’d be happy to pay for that even though I already pay for rec rego.
Your buddy looks built for E-biking
Welcome to the Darkside
Did you really charge an e bike next to your bed?😂
That Yamaha ebike is $9,000. Cool, but not many broke Aussies can ford it 😅
Slow down tiger you wont be able to walk tom.
Slow down tiger you wont be able to
Imagine this ebike 24kg, but cannondale carbon flash less than 9kg... and half of the price... how less dead weight you must push through trails. ;)
But big thanks for effort
Nah
IT'S NOT BLOODY ADAM IS IT.
Hello from Rob Haskins
f. me get your arse to Derby Tasmania and the brand new Narooma and Eden. I've been a E- vangilist for 6 years. E=Mtb²
The magic of Emtbs is that they turn us into gleeful kids again.
It's you but younger and faster.
Downhill both ways.
You were a slow learner Adam.
$100M government spend on Mtb tracks lately. Nothing on motos.
You work it out. Emtbs have a social licence. Moto's piss the public off. It's like all moto riders are touring the world looking for peace to disturb. Welcome to a whole new world. Regards Rob Haskins E=Mtb²
Haha, what are you even doing on UA-cam, Rob.
Yes I'm late to the party, but I've been busy indulging in life after Enduro ... it's called Adventure bike riding! Rob, you're supposed to have a twin cylinder parked next to your Ebike.
I've been riding them for years, then finally bought my own last year! ua-cam.com/video/HStqf_02JrE/v-deo.htmlsi=zVmzhKwXtOMW7vqP
@@MotologyFilms Great to hear from you ... The Emtb world needs your exceptional natural artistic talents ..
Emtbs alow ACCESS to Explore terrain (that motos will never be permitted) multiplying the joy of one of mans greatest gravity cheating inventions the bicycle . I'll put my hp no (I'm Lexdyxic)on your contact form.
It was clearly the cyclist's fault!
