I just got back from Vegas where I rented a 2024 Roadglide through Eagle Rider for 2 days. My wife and I road 824 miles. Las vegas to Oatman, to Williams, all through the south rim of the Grand Canyon and back to Vegas. It was a bit chilly as we had temps ranging from 57F down to 25F!! We are Canadian's so the cold wasn't too bad, but I can now say the first snow I saw this year was in Williams AZ Hahaha. I've met you guys and your wives at Harley homecoming 23 and 24. Thank you for all the great videos. They have inspired my wife and I to take the longer trips and enjoy all the beautiful destinations America has to offer. See you down the road!
First snow of the year in Williams!! That's awesome. Such a special town to see during this time of year. It sounds like you guys got to see some great things along the way, including Oatman (hopefully the Route 66 Sidewinder too!). Thanks for the continued support. See you down the road!
It's a huge warship It's an old warship, but it's a hot place for tourists to like and be surprised It's a very fun ride with acquaintances, and it's a video that gives viewers a lot of energy❤
Those Ships & their stories are AWSOME to here, That was our greatest Generation!!! Last year the wife & I took a road trip to Georga & South Carolina & we spent the day at USS Yorktown, there was a Destroyer USS Lafffey. That Laffy is one Hell of a boat (ship) the battels that she saw, got her ass kick, shook it off & went back to the fight, The History channel did a piece on her ( DOG FIGHTS) was amazing to watch I wish I was old enough to be there, & The Yorktown was massive a floating city. I'm sure the new ships are way bigger & way more comfortable but look at where they came from the closest ship to me is the USS Horrent & I've yet to visit her
Would have loved to be there for those 16" guns firing. Thanks for the tour guys. I was muddy shoe Navy in the Seabees so I didn't serve on a ship. I always enjoy ship tours.
Same here! We thought they'd do the 16's but ended up doing the 5's. Unfortunately it sounds like the blast from the 16" gun would have shattered the windows of the neighboring cruise ships docked right beside the Iowa. Impressive either way! Thanks for tuning in and thank you for your service 🇺🇸
This, as well as many of your other videos was very interesting. When I was serving in Vietnam our ship supplied the battleship USS New Jersey with all of the 2,000 lb 16 inchers they needed. At my young age back then fascinated me every time it pulled alongside to get reloaded. Seeing the USS Iowa and the interesting tour brought back many memories of the days of our amazing battleships. Actually, a bike event on the Navy ship is a pretty neat idea, I think. Thank you so much for the great video and interesting ship tour.
I think I enjoyed the guns more than the kids did that day! Great job capturing the essence of a day on the battleship with fellow riders sharing in honoring those of service 🇺🇸👏
You and the thrashing boys have outdone yourself this week with your motor vlogs another excellent video fellas thank you for sharing your experience and have yourself a very Happy Thanksgiving
Great content very interesting history of the vessel and the guns (ex Royal Navy weapons mechanic ) i was on HMS Cardiff a type 42 Destroyer and we did a sail past (kind of ship to ship salute ) of the Iowa in the English Channel in July 1989 so not long after the tragic incident in turret 2 had happened .The Iowa spent the 4th July 1989 in Portsmouth England, home of the Royal Navy. i posted a pic of her sister ship the USS Wisconsin taken by me from HMS Cardiff in the northern Persian Gulf During Desert storm 91where we were part of a screening force with another 2 USN vessels , on your F b page 26th oct when you announced this event. got to meet some of the Wisconsins crew when they berthed in Abu DHabi U.A.E '91 and see the ship close up . Respect to the Iowas fallen and proud to have served alongside the USN ,Desert storm '91
That's what we like to hear! We wish we could have thrown the whole tour in there but the key points were definitely interesting. Thanks for tuning in 🙌
I always love the history and learning how fast we could pull together to build incredible machines. 2 years for the iconic American generation to build that massive capable machine.
Great segment…didn’t know that ship was decommissioned and recommissioned so many times…just goes to show how relevant and capable this ship was to the mission of the US Navy…
@@2LaneLife I was in the navy for 7 yrs..never on a ship though..either in school or at a hospital but was with marines as a corpsman for about 2 1/2 years..great experience did things I didn’t ever expect to do…
Thanks so much for stopping by! Fun to have you aboard. Cool video!

As a history buff myself I love that you guys add these stories to your ride videos. We often park the bike and check out local history markers.
That's what we like to hear! We wish we could have thrown the whole tour in there but the key points were definitely interesting. Thanks for tuning in 🙌
Love this. I spent the night on the USS Alabama battleship in Mobile Alabama with my son and Boy Scout grandson.
Pretty dang cool! That sounds like an awesome experience🇺🇸
Just want to say good lads 4:40 keeping your eyes forward 😂
Looked like a blast, been a while since ive been on the aussie equivalent.
😂🤝
Awesome Ship. Lance, the cowboy hat wouldn't work, but that beard as awesome as it is would be considered unsat.
It sure is ⛴
I always love the history and learning how fast we could pull together to build incredible machines. 2 years for the iconic American generation to build that massive capable machine.
That's pretty wild to think about all that went into making that happen!!
That was awesome gentlemen and ladies. Something a bit different. I personally loved the history lesson.
Keep it up.

John did you sell your tundra?
No John and no Tundras here
uss BB 61 Iowa is a ship , submarines are boats . got to visit the ship in the first yr. it was there.
That's awesome! It's definitely a sight to see in person👍
It’s a ship, not a boat.
