This PanAm series is getting published VERY late and sporadically lol! It's been fun reliving some of my best days on two wheels while editing these videos. Whats your favorite road in Colorado? Bonus points if it's unpaved because I want to hear ALL about it!!

Thanks for stopping in at the Basecamp of the Rockies, Gunnison CO! We have 3000+ miles of forest road and BLM road in our county, and the adventure and beauty are REAL. Come back and ride with us. You can sample some of the roads on GunniMoto.

I am thrilled to find your channel. One of the few times I appreciate KZfaq’s algorithm. This video made me happier than most only because I am always happy for people to discover Black Canyon of the Gunnison. My family had lived in OK most of my life so spent a good deal of time in CO because it’s close. We had been all over the state but I had NEVER heard of Black Canyon of the Gunnison. I did a geology field camp in southern CO and we spent 7-10 days driving the whole state and studying the geology. Holy cow!!! So many beautiful places to see but Black Canyon was jaw dropping and I couldn’t believe them (and still can’t) that I had never heard of it. THANK YOU for introducing these wonderful places to a group of people who will appreciate them up close. P. S. I could not stop myself. The reason the Black Canyon is so deep and steep is because the water cuts through metamorphic rock, which is much more resistant to weathering than sedimentary or igneous rock. 😂

Great film quality, great sound, great voiceover and beautiful music, and even a history lesson or two. 😊 They could be two hours long and still be interesting and entertaining.

Words from an old man: enjoyed the peace and solitude on your motorcycle and a country road. At this time of your life, a time to learn… “When you look out of your eyes, at nature happening out there, you’re looking at you. That’s the real you. The you that goes on of its self. ”A Conversation with Myself Alan Watts…… Now that I am in the sun set of my life. The place I go to for solace is my motorcycle on a sunny day down a country road. Where I find true solace on my great iron steed!

The Black Canyon of The Gunnison is one of those places that once it gets in your blood, you can ride it over and over again and never see the same things twice! Traveling up the dirt road is what we call, "Earning Your Turns!" as the road to the bottom and back up again is one of the better kept secret roads around my back yard. Thanks, Staci so much for visiting and really showing off our little corner of the world! Check out Grand Mesa some time, Cedaredge and the rest of my backyard! Wicked awesome video!

I flew out to Colorado and rented a Jeep and drove Last Dollar Road a couple of years ago. Amazing drive. What month/days were you there that you filmed this? The snow capped peaks and aspens with full color look absolutely amazing and I’d like to plan my next trip at the right time to be able to see all this. When I went it was mid July so it wasn’t this pretty. Other areas with cool off road trails you should check out is Grand Mesa, also in that general area.

I think early October but honestly, the fall foliage peaks at slightly different times every year. Late September/early October is usually a safe bet though.
