Audio still sounded great for no helmet mic! Also a shame I couldn't make it out this year, looked like great tracks and good fun! 🤙

One africa twin for sale, never dropped, only ridden to the shops on sunday (in all seriousness its great to see one getting used for more than commuting to work)

I’ve been living my dirt bike life through Tom for 10 years or so. I don’t remember. But I just got a used YZ450F and am getting it running. I’m cheap and like a good project. But soon I will be getting out there. Some on my own and some with my son. As much as I like a big race bike, I wish I could have found a good 250 2 stroke project.

The T7's definitely held their own (giving the riders their due as well)

Love to see more riding with Tom great content mate

OZ Tent for the win! I've been using a RV3 for years over here in the states, BIG fan! This video embodies why I almost solely ride my 500 for any real off-road tracks these days, they make short work of the technical terrain. I keep Helga, my hefty German steed (R1250 GSA) for touring/tarmac and mild off-road work only. Thanks for sharing the hell that was this hill with the rest of us, good stuff.

These video’s remind of why I have a KTM 640 Adv for these types of rides and a KTM 1190 Adv EDS for on road riding.

He’s back 😊

Mark is my hero 😂 Legend of the super adventure squadron

Great stuff, could someone please give the guy on the Africa twin an Award......... Legend/Mad bastard Award or something.

Still some of the most entertaining videos on a bike 👍 As an old time snake wrangler, loved seeing the snake rescue 👍👍

18:18 can't believe you left me to die (disclaimer: I am in fact, not dead)

LETS GOOO! HALF HOUR WITH TOM!! Cheers for Indiana!

That guy on the 300EXC was cheating by using that bike! Can't believe he didn't stop and help you guys! Great stuff mate.

Many bikes have come and gone in my riding history, but my 12 year old 500exc is never going away! It’s absolutely my favorite bike! I have a great old 990 too, but I’m too old and out of shape to do this kind of riding on it anymore. No problem on my 500. Going back to Europe and Africa this fall on my trusty 21 year old 450exc.

Your wheelie mad Tom! Looks like fun on the 500, thanks for the vid.👍

"Go the raindeer" or in Norwegian: :Gå reinsdyr" 😂

Really enjoyed the Vid, Open Roads is such a great event. Well done Tom.

Tom is enjoying the carnage a little too much! 😂

As a DRZ rider I know there’s a long day ahead when I see the big bikes AT, 901 & the 890 are usually the hold up every time

I reckon that Africa twin lost about 1000 dollars worth of value for every hour it spent in that event. Big freakin ups to that dude! I wouldnt take my AT anywhere near that event! Friggin legend! Doing on that bike what it was made to do (and perhaps a little bit more ;) )

Video sounded fine, Tom! Those hills looked super steep, even on camera.

Tom, you're an animal! That was awesome. Keep it up man!

I don't understand why everyone else should suffer pulling the rhino up a hill because you choose the wrong bike or are incapable of riding it. Maybe once or twice but after that you're on your own buddy.

Love it Tom it's bloody hilarious!

Awesome video mate good to see another EXC destroying the skilled track👌

Well done, looked fun. Greetings from Sweden

Nice work. 5hundo for the win! I love mine 👍

Great video mate. Super entertaining.

Good riding first of all and loved Tom caring for the snake i would have done the same. Keep on mate.

The 500 sure is a beast!

Hint: if you have the option of driving your bike to an event, take a trail bike. If you have to ride there, take an adventure bike and don’t take the hard track.

Love your stuff

Video got good entertaining in the evening. 🤣.

The hill, is why my GSA1200 is for sale. My 300cc two stroke is the bike of choice and a 500 cc mini adventure is in the future..I am old!

The front to back balance of that 500 is woeful. The front wheel is nowhere near the ground when you ride, in fact it’s about a metre away from it. That seriously affects front wheel grip. Try the clickers mate….

That was great! Thanks.

Hmm. That was entertaining. And its interesting to note there are more ways than one for a young man to go blind!

Two very different riders at 6.00 min in😀

You got the kick flip on camera... most would not belive you.

It's like riding Open Roads with Aussie Deadpool

love the content mate 👍🏻

Great vid but I'm thinking the guy at 9:04..the on the 1100 needs to stand up more..lean Over the bars to transfer the weight from the back otherwise he's just a passenger hanging on...the couple of guys before him made it look easy due to them standing up...

Looks like some good tracks. I wonder if the Tiger could claw its way up them?!

14:25 you’re a bit of a mentalist sometimes 😂

Fucking stellar content man. Cheers.

Weight is your enemy on these climbs. See how much easier on a single cylinder bike.

15:08 cheers

@10:12 My reaction when I find out it's going to rain on my only day off to go riding.

Silas: "what a fucking shit show" 😂😂😂😅 spewing I missed this one!!!

The t7 does sound sweet

You guys need to be more serious like me. I have a 300xc, 500exc-f, Husky 701 and a 790S adv. A tool for every occasion. Yes, my life has revolved around dirt bikes. Just past 65 years young. Doing a Canada to mexico dirt ride through the cascade's and Sierra Nevada mtns. in August. I bought the 701 for that ride.

Please no more hyperview Tom, it's nausea inducing.

sick ride!!! just curious... do these adventure riders lower the tyre pressure to get a bit more traction for these rocky hills??

more thomas, make more

Nice Tom. Hey, did you have your Rocksteady turned off for some reason?

Let’s go

Omg new vids🎉

Hey Tom, does your wife still have her 636? Looking to buy one again after selling mine regretfully during lockdown. So rare to find any for sale from 2013-2016. Had green, but love the white!

Hey Tom, great vid, any reason you didn’t buy the 701, what do you think about it over the T7 or 890, just your thoughts would be appreciated

Funny shit! 😅

30:40 Was that the back straight at Broadford?

Bring back the wr250r, glad I wasn;t riding a big adventure bike up that snotty stuff.

What tyre pressures are those bigger bikes running and do the riders now how to ride the clutch

❤❤

Stop doing that or you'll go blind. Here I am doing it again 😂

Isn’t it a race? I get comradeship but if guys are riding bike that aren’t suitable for the route staying and helping them is costing you time and a place in the finish?

Snake save or snake harrassment ??😆

Question here; would an Africa Twin with a DCT be a big help on these steep rocky sections with the hills? In terms of modulating power without being able to stall, I wonder if it helps. I don't have offroad experience yet, but interested in knowing.

Do your brakes overheat on those long descents?

Wrong place to park on that hill .. people never listen

I think 150cc commuter will do much better than these hippos 😂😂😂

First comment

Africa Twin bro probably should have learnt how to ride before taking this on.

What's with the camera? It's like being in a goldfish bowl

You and your bloody snakes…

How to you accumulate so much wealth to afford all these cars and bikes?

I have to be honest here.I watch a lot of your content and this looked like a Monkey Fucking a Football.I simply don’t understand the bigger bikes on that track.It cannot be good for the bikes.No sympathy for the riders.

Most annoying commentry ever

Mate, you guys are gluttons for punishment. Get rid of those heavy dinosaurs, I'll bet that africa twin needs a new clutch. Trade in for a 250 or 450 MX bike, they are lighter, better tires and plenty of power.We've got an area just like that at Barnwell in Texas, loads of fun. Tom is doing a good job feathering the clutch and feet on the pegs
