    Book ordered. How do you have no wind noise?

    • @JeremyKroeker
      @JeremyKroeker  2 роки тому

      Thanks for watching, and reading, too. 😎 Wind noise … I have a lavalier mic tucked up really close to my mouth, and that mic runs into a Zoom H1N recorder. (There are links to the stuff I use in the video description.) I find this setup works OK, but it’s best if I’m riding under 70 kilometres per hour. (About 40 miles per hour.) So, highway riding does work, but then the wind noise comes up.

      This is the first time I've watched one of your videos and I must say I'm quite impressed with your production quality. I see your list of gear but I'd like to know what you use for a helmet mount. I need to get one but I'm not sure which style to get. Are you happy with yours? Keep up your good content.

    Really enjoyed it, I would understand if you don't do anymore but it would be our lost. We really enjoy your videos, you don't sugar coat anything. I think in a few years you will have a lot of people following you. Your books and video's are very interesting and entertaining. Please 🙏 keep them coming.

    I really need to get some off-road training under my belt. Watching this gave me lots of pucker-factor moments. So, thanks for letting me live vicariously. Still don’t think I’d take the Multistrada Pikes Peak up that road. 😆

    Toad rock is one of my summer rides every year. Two days from my home on the island then I hang around for 2 or 3 or 4 days and head home. Before the "covid days" I would head home via the USA. Mary makes everyone welcome. Was there twice last year did not see Don.

    Another great video Jeremy. Thanks! Closer to home, I highly recommend the Skookumchuck Fire Tower. Only caveat- the last kilometre or so is definitely NOT Goldwing-friendly-if that’s the metric we’re using now. Happy riding in 2022! Cheers.
