Our good buddy Joe Gresh posted an earlier YouTube video on the Harley XR1200, and like all Gresh videos, it made me laugh when I watched it. Not just a little chuckle, but big laughs, the kind that makes you worry about spilling your coffee. You have to watch this one. And my favorite quote from the video?
“…the bike handles well when you’re out of control…”
It’s classic Joe Gresh and I loved it…
Joe’s done other videos that made my hit parade, too, including his video on the Western America Adventure Ride, the China Ride, and the Destinations Tour…
Gresh is a classic among motojournalists. He’s the best one out there. As a guy who’s ridden with Mr. Gresh, I can tell you that having Joe as a riding buddy makes a great ride even better, and what you see in the videos is what you get on a ride. He’s the real deal. Gresh sees things other people don’t and he describes them honestly, whether it’s Chinese guys trying to find a non-Made-In-China souvenir in a US military museum or a female customer in China telling car wash guys how to wash a motorcycle. It was a laugh a minute with this guy. I have to get him to ride with us in Baja just so I can see what I’ve been missing down there all these years…
