Check out my full video on the Ruins of Guadalupe!
Howdy friends,
After our nearly disastrous mishap in the New Mexican Badlands, we find ourselves safe, sound and only slightly discouraged back in Albuquerque NM. With a strong start from a hotel room, we continue our road trip south with eyes set on a new camp spot for the night and a journey down the remains of old Route 66.
Im sure it will all go smoothly and nothing will stand in our way…

Those beans are even better with Cheddar Brats in them instead of hot dogs.
Trust me.
I feel so silly, but I've just got what the number 46 (Rossi), means. Bit slow but enjoying the ride.
You ran into a problem where your paper maps was no longer reliable already, and now this happened — have you tried comparing the paper map with google maps to be sure of your route. You didn’t mention doing it.
nothing like cooking beans and wieners over a fire.
Out here in the southwest the superstitious tradition for road trips is that whenever you drive over a cattle guard, you’ve gotta stick your thumb up, or you’ll incur bad luck. Hopefully you came across this knowledge somewhere along the journey.
i really want to see Forrest and Milo in the same room.
no need to get political or anything.
just two nerds nerding out and hyperventilating as they laugh each other to death as they bounce from one topic to another
Woah
This was recorded a long time ago…
May…
This trip has a real rango feel to it.
I know it's probably been a grip since you filmed this but having some chewing gum handy can be really nice if you're hoofing around in cactus country. A lot of cacti have hair-like thin needles that are small and can be a nightmare to get out but I found that flatting chewed gum against them to be pretty effective at pulling those suckers out.
Hey, since you dont really do vlogs, make sure you're getting permission to record in these restaurants and mechanics and such or they can have your videos taken down.
I got here from dark city
I was under 75k on the main channel and I’m under 75k here. I’m not the cusp but god dammit I pay attention. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!
this is the 1st episode of this series that I've watched and I absolutely LOVE it!! I'm thinking you might be headed my way soon.. cuz.. I live walking distance to Rt66 in Flagstaff, AZ!! I really HOPE your journey brought you through here because we have AMAZING ruins and historical sites.. and awe inspiring vistas and views!! can't wait to see MORE!!!
So wait… It's one every week?! NooooooooOOOooo!!! How will I wait?!
Bless you, bless you, bless you. Okay, now you’re just being greedy.
I actually pulled out my ancient Route 66 trip plan, that I had abandoned years ago. I think its a late January/February.
its so nice to watch this, i got back from a roadtrip through the us and canada and the little social differences are something i didn't know i missed! watching you have a yarn w strangers at the gas station was so nostolgic <3
21:35 hearing people talk of los alamos as an actual place feels very weird to a non-american
I find it funny that milos editor decided to use yismach chatani xD did shahar pick the song?
It's amazing to see all of this from all the way from the Netherlands. These are landscapes I probably will never be able to see in real life, so I am thankfull for inviting us into this journey! Amazing so far, looking forward to the rest!
Making me itch for a ride.
Those road trip random positive interactions are one of my favorite parts of travel. Solidarity in the triala of the road helps keep things in perspective.
Y' know, if you hadn't already settled on Dark Routes, Archaeology and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance would have been cool.
❤❤❤
Milo be careful about the handlebar phone mount on your dr. Most dual sports vivrate enough to cause damage to the cameras and it becomes unusable
I would be well into long uncut portions of the go pro motorbike riding… maybe the whole trip's worth of it in one edit…
So happy for the riding clips!
Did you check out the Dittert site south of Grants?
Dude I wish you could upload more of these videos. This makes me excited I hope someday I can go bow hunting for bull elk in Colorado and New Mexico sometime in the next 3 years.
Wait its May when you filmed this? Dude when you didn’t upload for 6 days after your last endeavor I got actually worried. I’m in Az and was about to start heading to NM.
How many of those turn arounds could have been avoided, if Milo was using Google Maps?
If continental breakfast not included, just drive to the hotel where they do offer breakfast, and some even offered very good breakfast. Just go in pretending like you're staying there, be confident, and i guarantee you, you'll have your free breakfast all of the time.😉
Milo you radical adventurer you! Loving the solo bike routes vids. But I sent a fan letter to the posted R.I. address for you, but it was returned; [unable to deliver, apparently.] I could resend if you have a new address.[Yes, I saw the show where you moved into your NEW house.]Great future for you; here's to a million fans in "24. Peace, respect and love, Maggie way up in Canada.
You do genuinely find the nicest most helpful people in the desert. It can be harsh and that breeds it’s own form of kindness
Bless you!
This might be a dumb question that’s already answered in a main channel video, but does anyone know if these vlogs are being posted after the fact, or is milo zooming/struggling along out in the American west as we speak?
"Cocos chelas y más" jajaja
Your final campsite was fuckin beautiful bro. Great spot to find. Funny how travel works like that sometimes man. Excited to see the next spots you go to🤙🏻
Some sort of long rod type thing and a hammer type thing is enough for adjusting the preload on your bike, definitely something to prepare for.
