Wow, thanks Lyle. My hope was to make it kind of like a story with some detail, so watching it would make you feel like you were there. I think it was too much detail, and not enough story. Going to try to make the next one more story oriented. Appreciate you watching and the nice comments!

​@billschreiber I think it was perfect! I'm planning my trip to 2023 Sturgis Rally

Nice! Appreciate it! Hope you have a great time! Ride safe!

Appreciate it! Thanks for watching!

@evillarrealjr7754 Appreciate the nice comments, and glad you watched/enjoyed it. Ride safe!

Army Retiredvet28 Thanks, appreciate it! It was a lot of work, but worth it if others get some good insight from it to help make their own trip better. Ride safe out there!

@richardgrove3073 Sure, you're very welcome and thanks for watching it! I do have a youtube channel with more videos if interested. The last one I just finished I feel is my best (riding in southwest). I get better each one I do (I think so anyway...lol). You be safe out there!

@jameslyons1661 Good deal James. Glad you enjoyed and got some use out of it. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for subscribing! It’s a great hobby! Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you!

Hey Ralph, I sure appreciate your kind words. So glad you enjoyed our adventure and thanks for watching. Let's do it again!

Hey, thanks Joe! Yes, it takes a lot of time and effort to produce, but love doing them. I hope you do get a chance to make the trip, you will not regret it! It is a great place to ride and lots to see and do. Glad the video was inspiring! It’ll be a long ride, but you can do it!👍🏻 be safe my friend!

From 🇨🇦 , yes , that is correct

@@PeterSmith-or3pq Thanks Peter!

Thank you! I've only been a couple years, but yes, it was very hot. I think it was over 100 degrees almost everyday this year. We did a lot of stopping....lol. Ride safe!

Awesome Thomas! Appreciate you watching and the nice comments. Ride safe my friend!

Thank you Maurice! Yes, a great place to ride and see the sights! Appreciate the kind words.

Muchísimas gracias!

Lol Joe. Thanks for the nice comments on the video, a labor of love. Like you said, something we can go back years from now and relive! Glad to do it. Yes, such a great compatible group of brothers/sisters. I really don’t know how it could have been any better (except temps in the 70s👍🏻😀). I’m so glad we got to do it again. Maybe 2024? 👍🏻😀

@user-qc4ou5qo7b Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed!

@sk8r4life92188 Appreciate it! Thanks for watching.

Wow, thanks Dale! I'm trying to get better as I go along, been doing it for a couple years now. I compare my first one with my latest, and definitely see a difference. Appreciate the comments!

Thank you Michael! Appreciate it! Yeah, Black Hills is one of my favorite places to ride too. Sounds like you have a nice trip planned for next month. You all be safe! First of July a small group of us are heading to Canada. Hope to video that ride too! Thank you for watching and commenting!

Dave, Appreciate the comment and you watching my video! Yes, very surprised at the views and subscribers, but very much appreciated.

Cool! My favorite place to ride. Hope you get to go, you will not regret it

Thanks for the nice comment! Sounds like you have some awesome trips planned this summer. You ride safe out there my friend!

Thank you @Tedthetech50 for the nice comments! Hope you and your son have a great time at Sturgis! Be safe my friend! Drop me a line and let me know how it went.

Beautiful! Precious memories will be made♥️

@@Nortongroove indeed!

Appreciate it! Thanks for the nice comments and watching.

Appreciate the nice comments. Glad you enjoyed it and appreciate you watching.

Will do my best, for sure! Thank you my friend.

Thanks Tony! Will do, God willing!

Thanks! Yes it was, one of my favorite! Thanks for watching!

ya, the soundtrack is great. I hope you were able to monetize using those tunes. great video.

Thanks Chad! Appreciate the nice comments. Yes, those are some of my favorite songs. I use songs that I hope enhance the viewing.

@@whatyoumakeofit6635 appreciate the nice comment. I use music to enhance the video (try to anyway), so I use what I like. Unfortunately, all the music is copy righted, so I don’t monetize any of my videos. It’d be nice, but that’s not why I do these. I basically do the videos for my friends and myself, with the hope that others can enjoy also. That’s why the music is important, and I choose to make them and not monetize. Thanks for watching!!

Great to hear and thanks for the nice comments. Hope he gets feeling better soon! We Texans need to stick together! (Born in Midland)👍🏻

Hey Fleetwood7941, much appreciated! Thank you for watching and subscribing!

@randomstuffwithjoe Great, so glad you enjoyed it and got some ideas from it. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun. Safe travels!

Appreciate it Rodney! Thanks for watching it.

Sure Jimmy! Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching.

Wow, thank you! I appreciate the kind words. It was a great trip, and hope to do it again. You live in a beautiful area!

Thanks Michael! My hope is that new riders to Sturgis, could view what my group did, and if it appeals to them, they'd have the mapped routes. Glad you found that useful! Appreciate the comments!

Thanks George! Small world we live in. I’m sure you’ve ridden in the smokies living in TN. One of my favorite places to ride. I have other videos of my rides, did one for sturgis 2020, also a great deal of fun. Ride safe my friend!

Thank ya

@MoMosDrawers Thanks so much for subscribing and the nice comment! Hope you do make it this year, come to think about it, you should be on your way by now. Yes, nothing better than 2 wheeled adventures. You be safe and have a great time!

@nelsongn9 Glad you are enjoying the video. I'd recommend going to Sturgis if you can, it is one of my favorite places to ride a motorcycle. Be safe!

Wow! That’s two hours of your life you’ll never get back…lol. So glad you watched it! Thank you!

Thanks Steven! Appreciate the nice comments. Ride Safe~Ride Often!

Thank you! Hope all is well in Hungary!

Sure, appreciate you watching!

Sure, thanks for riding with me!😀

Wow, awesome to hear, thank you! Glad you are going to be able to go back as I know you'll enjoy it! You two be safe and hope it turns out to be the adventure you're after and not too hot!

Thank you! Appreciate that. You ride safe too my friend!

Thank you Richard, appreciate the kind words. I can send you screenshots via email, if you want to send me your email address. Send me an email to william_schreiber@att.net, and I'll send the screenshots. I know you'll have fun at Sturgis, it's a great place to ride. I'll probably go again in 2024, a week before it actually starts, because the riding is so much better with less traffic. I used to live in Oklahoma (Chickasha & Bridgecreek), and miss it. It is a great place to live. Yes, hope one day our paths may cross, maybe Sturgis! One thing you may want to try, is watch video on your PC, and pause it during the map portions, and take a screenshot. That may work for you. Ride safe my friend!

@@billschreiber Awesome! Yeah Chickasha is 30 minutes due south of me on Hwy 81 from El Reno where I am, wow! Yes Sir, I hope our paths do cross, I will email you my contact info whenever you are out on Hwy 40 this way or doing 66 from Tulsa. As for the screen shots I was watching KZfaq on a Firestick and I figured it out for the screen shots on my laptop, no need to send anymore, again Sir, God bless you all and we will most certainly cross paths, perhaps Sturgis. God speed to you and yours Brother! 🙂

Thank you!

My pleasure, glad you enjoyed and watched it! @stevenwright6573

@danos7979 Appreciate it! Thanks for watching and the nice comments.

Good to hear, hope you have a great time! Thanks for watching.

Appreciate the kind words and for watching!

Thanks "The Rider" for the well wishes. Sorry to hear that you live in another country (LA.....lol). Appreciate the nice comments. We are all back home, ready to go again. You ride safe out there, especially in all that LA traffic!

@@billschreiber I haven't been on the saddle for over 5 months due to my right shoulder surgery done and rehabilitation. I am just be happy to watch all my fellow riders' youtube contants, like yours 👍

Hope you get back in the saddle soon. I'm sure it misses you! I know that shoulder surgery can be hard, as my brother in law just went through it. It's been 4 months, and he is still not 100%, maybe 50%. Good luck and hope it goes well!

Thank you!

Thanks for watching and the kind words. Hope you get to go, such a great area to ride.

Nice! Thank you!

You’re welcome, hope you enjoyed!

Thank you so much!

Thank you Ian, appreciate the kind words. Sounds like your going to have a long ride to get there. You and your group be careful and have a safe but enjoyable ride! Yes, for sure, if you can go early and ride, but still make the opening day of the Sturgis Rally, that's what I'd recommend. I've been there during Sturgis week, and the bike/car traffic is relentless. Have fun!

Thanks Bassie for the nice commnet. My son visited the Netherlands in college for Study Abroad for a semester. He loved it, sounds like a great place to live, and a beautiful area! You be safe out there.

I bet you were worn out, that's a long ride. I understand about being so tired that you dont get to do all you had planned. Have a safe trip and fun this year in Sturgis. I plan to go again in 2024. Ride safe!

Thank you for watching. Yes, that’s what I thought, it was unexpected out in the middle of nowhere. I didn’t even know it was there, but was very cool!

Hey, thanks Peter for watching! Appreciate the nice comments. They’re time consuming to make, but enjoy doing it, and glad others find them entertaining. I’m really lucky to have a group of friends like them that enjoy doing the same things I like, especially the riding! I do not take them for granted, because as you mention, I realize not everybody has a group of friends like that. You ride safe out there in the bush!👍🏻😀

Please come to the states sometime, there are many great rallies during the summer months. My ex and I used to religiously attend the annual National rallies of the Int’l Norton Owners Assn. a couple years I remember we had folks from Australia and New Zealand attend. I was honored that they came, all that distance, complete with their Nortons,,,,Awesome!!

Thank you!

Thank you Matt! Appreciate you watching!

Hey Leon, I was very happy with going early. You can see that the motorcycle traffic was minimal, and we really had a chance to ride the roads more aggressively. I’ve been during the Sturgis week before, and it’s usually slow going waiting for everyone. I’ll never go again during the Sturgis week, but plan on going more times a week before. I don’t think you’d regret that. Be safe and best to you. Thanks for watching and the comments!

Thank you Lieuwe! Appreciate that!

Thanks Dennis, appreciate it. Thanks for watching.

Thank you Hamed! I truly appreciate you watching!

@@billschreiber just bought my first half.low rider s can’t wait for weathers 🤣

@@Hdhd85824 enjoy and be safe brother!

Thanks Glenn! Appreciate you watching!

Thank you!

@@billschreiber No Sir, thank you.

Thank you Jeff! Appreciate you watching and the nice comment! Hope you can join us next time.

@@billschreiber With official retirement at the end of this month, I'll be ready for the next trip and those that follow.

@@jeffjohnson937 That's great Jef, will look forward to it! I'll be close behind you with the retirement thing & looking forward to more riding also. I'm sure we'll have no problem getting another Sturgis group pulled together. :)

Well, I guess that’s not a bad thing …lol. Appreciate you watching and hope you enjoyed it. It was one of my favorites rides. Ride safe!

Great, thanks!

Thank you for the kind comment! Count your blessings that your wife rides with you sometimes, my wife will not ride at all with me! She’s never been on my bike and refuses to give it try. I wish I was able to go to Sturgis yearly. Such a beautiful place to ride! You ride safe Larry.

Thank you! Appreciate the comment.

Thanks Dennis. I picked the music, it's some of my favorite. Glad you enjoyed!

Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve heard of a few of those, but never been. I think I have one more Sturgis in me, and I’ll have to try some of those! Appreciate it!

Thank you @GStandsforGrdge! Ride safe!

Thank you, and appreciate you watching!

Thanks Khanh! Appreciate it, have a great day!

Very cool, thanks!!

Thanks Pat! Appreciate you watching.

Hope you can make it back to SD. We love our state

@@patmurphy6818 yes, I do too! It’s a beautiful place with so much to see and do!

Sounds intriguing. I'll look it up online, could be on my list for next year. Thanks for passing on the info Duane!

@terrysims2925 Thanks Terry. Also, thank you for the recommendation on a different area for next time. I’ll definitely take that under consideration. I plan to go again in 2024. You ride safely!

@@billschreiber ....wife is arizona native. The monument was pretty spiritual. Had to look to find it, found right before sunset, area pretty overergrown at time with tall grass like the surrounding area. Had long list of the Indians that died on a headstone. Its 1 of the things i tell her while riding in pretty places....."used to be indian land around here," she always says .... this "all" used to be Indian land

@@terrysims2925 haha, you know, she’s right.

@philbrown9764 I completely understand, long miles on a bike are hard on you. As I get older, the harder it is. One thing that helps me with the long miles, is weight training and some cardio work. I'm usually pretty consistent with working out, and I know that helps. I'm trying to get in all the rides I always wanted to do, while I'm still able (just turned 67). I suspect I'll only be able to ride like this for another few years. I do have a Canada ride, 16 days and 6,700 miles this year in July. Can't wait for that one! You take care and appreciate you watching!

Thanks Darren!

Lol…thanks for watching!

Thank you! Yes, I live in the TN area. I’ve never been to that Rally, as it is on the same weekend that I have another ride I attend. I do know a couple of folks that speak highly of it and go every year. Reading about it, sounds like a great event! Ride safe my friend!

Just came from the Small Bore Rally in Townsend TN, it was in June. Awesome riding in the Smokies, although I did not ride the Dragon. I’ll try it next time♥️

Thank you! I left on July 30th of this year from Tennessee.

Thanks for watching Billy, glad you enjoyed.

Got you in a good way, or bad way?

@@billschreiber Good, I have "Animals" on vinyl..

Great, one of my favorite groups! In fact, just saw Roger Waters in Nashville last Saturday night. He played some of the old stuff, which was good. He played around half of his own stuff, which was so-so. But the flying sheep and pig in the arena was great!

Thank you Alain Honegger! What kind of road map are you looking for?

@@billschreiber the routes travelled each day as well as the cities visited

I had someone else request that, and he finally decided that he would make screen shots of the video when the maps appear. I’m wondering if that would work for you? If not, send me your email address and I can send you my HD ride planner maps, if you can use those. I do not have any physical maps of the routes.

I appreciate it @SteveTheGasMan, and thanks for watching. My videos do get flagged for copyright, but don’t do it for money, so they allow it. Just put my videos out there for others to enjoy. You ride safe my friend!

@@billschreiber oh cool

Great video! My wife and I enjoy these Sturgis videos! The wildlife was awesome. I would be very tired after all those miles. Not the man I was before. Thanks for sharing your adventures!😊

@@120watts That's great, thank you! Glad you enjoy them. Yes, it usually takes me a few days to recover after all the miles. Like you, not as young as I used to be. Glad to share my videos!

I think the Airbnb or Vibro is the route to go. Very convenient and cheaper than a hotel. When I stayed in Rapid City, it was a breeze going to and from Sturgis. Not sure about Custer, but wouldn't think it'd be bad at all. Hope you have fun. Be safe!!

Don't ride it at Night!! Elk,Deer, Coyotes...Day Ride is Beautiful..Also at it can get down right cold ,due to elevation

Sure, i can email to you. Give me your email address, and I'll send (if it's not too big of a file, there will be about 5 of them).

Thank you ( I think…lol). Not sure what Aig is, but thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!
