@adventurespec @AlpinestarsVideos @kriega8589 @UPSHIFT_ONLINE @GoProMX @SanBernardinoSheriff @Garmin @Enduristan @YamahaMotorUSA @RideBDR Sometimes you just get things wrong, this is one of those times. This is also why I wear protective gear, and have emergency equipment to deal with it when things go wrong. Thank you to everyone involved in helping me get out of there. The Inreach and County dispatchers, San Bernardino Sheriff's Office Air Rescue Team, Hi-Desert Medical Center, and A Toe Truck Towing for your professionalism and assistance. If I had been wearing different gear (especially different boots) the result could have been much worse. Get quality gear, wear it, and have a plan and be prepared for when things go wrong. The moto may be "But Did You Die?" but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be prepared to help yourself. I'm doing well, I have an MRI scheduled and hope to be able to be back to riding in a few weeks. The ride will continue, though there may be a short gap in videos as I get back into the trip. There will be a follow up video to this with a detailed breakdown of my accident and subsequent rescue. Hello! I'm Brady, AKA Mountainman, I've been a soldier, ski bum, police officer, government worker, photographer, and all around nomad. Now I travel on my motorcycle, make videos, and share them with the world. Along the way I do dumb stuff off road, camp, fly drones, take pictures, learn about culture and history and do my best to take you with me. In early 2022 I set off on my motorcycle Yennefer (2021 Tenere 700) for an adventure with no set destination or timeline. Come along with me and let’s see what will happen as I try to ride until I can't. Bike: Yamaha Tenere 700 Luggage: Kriega OS and Enduristan 4H Navigation: Carpe Iter Tablet and Drive Mode Dashboard 2 Cameras: Sony A7C, GoPro Hero 8, GoPro Max, GoPro Hero 7, GoPro Session 5, Skydio 2 Gear: Adventure Spec Jacket/Pants/Base Layers, Alpinestars Toucan boots, Arai XD4, Revit gloves.
