    Great video, I really enjoyed coming along. I was in Scotland all last week, it was around 80 degrees every day. One of the areas I rode through for the day is known for it's skiing in winter.... 85 degrees! Good to know that even the grand master leaves things at home. I recently spent a few days in the Lake District. On the first night I realised I had left the wind shield that I use with my stove at home and of course it was breezy. I had to improvise using my panniers.

    A small suggestion for a loop road on this route. About half way EB toward Springerville (on the 260), take a SB turn on the 273 rd. and a left (N/NE turn) on the 261 road. Thirty five miles of tall pines, small lakes and a great overlook at Point of the Mountain. Great loop and the overlook has a large parking area, picnic tables and a restroom! This is one mile past Mexican Hay Lake and seldom is anyone around.
    Next you reenter the 260 and closely followed is Eagar, AZ. The 191 (formerly 666 highway) is in front of you!
    I enjoy your videos and my rides through Arizona (AZ resident) and many other states. Good Rides

I’m 72 and ready to ride. Planned motel or air b&b but Bidenomics will have me camping in free spots!Tried to find a hunny but those my age are all worn out and the young ones are tied down to kids, jobs, or husbands, so it looks like it will just be my dog and I.

    • @FTAAdventures
      @FTAAdventures  11 місяців тому +1

      They don’t usually bother with campers unless they leave food out. Mostly they don’t want anything to do with humans. I store my food stuff in my bike and park it away from my tent in case it does attract bears. Or hang a bear bag depending on where I am.
