    This video reminded me of two things: 1) the red rock of Utah is unmatched and clearly the best riding experience for this motorcyclist, and; 2) I always only stayed at lodging places where I could park my bike right outside my door. Great video. Thanks.

    We’ve had over 80 days of above 101* this summer, one stretch of over thirty five days , and no rain. This past Monday it was cooler when I got up, and raining! I got on my bike and rode in the rain (no rain gear) just so I could get wet and feel the cool air.

I’ve been to Utah a few times and in certain places I like to pretend I’m riding on Mars as the landscape doesn’t look like anywhere on Earth that I’ve ever seen. Happy riding and maybe one day I’ll be lucky enough to meet you in person again!

    I love Utah. The scenery is absolutely unreal. Thanks for another beautiful video, Tim.
    Question on the Mosko Moto panniers - are you using a lock strap when you are off the bike walking around? I have the same panniers and love them, especially for off road. But I find I tend to use the metal locking panniers instead for long trips where I might have to leave the bike with my stuff. And then I regret it when I want to go explore some random unmaintained road and don't want to risk my legs.

    • @FTAAdventures
      @FTAAdventures  8 місяців тому +1

      Me too, Utah is awesome!
      I'm not using anything to lock the panniers. I haven't had any issues yet but it does make me a little nervous leaving the bike for too long. My friend Cody uses locks and it seems fine as long as you don't need anything from inside the panniers during the day.
