Here's wishing you all a Happy and Healthier New Year!
Some pictures from my travels over this past year.....my predilection for solitude would become mandatory "Social Distancing" during 2020. So glad this year is over.
Motorcycle mileages
Yep, the downward trend continues for Brigitta and Scarlett.
Total mileage ridden in 2020 = 7425 (+41% over last year)
Scarlett: Ending odometer reading 67417 = 2336 Km or 1401 Miles (worse than last year)
Brigitta ('87 BMW R80): Ending Odometer 100,879 = 464 Miles (very slightly better than last year)
Fiona: Ending odometer: 15600? = 2808 km or 1684 miles. (estimate only due to fire) R.I.P.
Yagi: Ending odometer: 13339 = 3876 Miles or 6201 Km (almost double from last year)
RV Stats:
We went glamping with Umarang, the URRV, for 202 days (55% of the year vice 39% last year)
Umarang: ending Mileage: 69900 = 9300 Miles for 2019. (a bit less than last year)

A very Happy New Year to you and your family Dom. Thanks for bring us along this last year.
Nice video though there isn't a single human visible. At least as far as I can tell...
Happy New Year Dom!
Enjoyed all your pics on my big screen :)
Happy New Year to you and Cookie, John!
Happy New Year RichardM. No humans in pics due to Social Distancing.
Happy New Year Andrew!
Happy New Year, Dom. Your pics and posts helped me pulling through 2020. I have no issues with social distancing, but I dearly miss traveling. Cheers. SonjaM
Thanks SonjaM.... Here's to a better year ahead....
Thank you for sharing the visual remnants of your 2020 adventures. I always enjoy looking at those wonderful landscapes. I was particularly enthralled by the scenes of Yagi in the dunes. Every time I see that motorcycle I say to myself, "You need one of those." There's no room in the garage though unless I depart with the K75.
The music in the video made me think of the sweeping landscapes in the movie "Dances With Wolves." The slow, swelling passages felt as if I was witnessing what you see. I'll offer an observation on your production -- feel free to dismiss it as the meanderings of a too slow rider.
I think the video would have been more powerful with half as many images. There were many scenes that we almost duplicates of others or from the same place. With fewer images the visual pacing would have been much slower, and more perfectly matched the pace of the music. And as a viewer, I would have had more time to appreciate what you were showing me. And I probably would have edited down to just the first piece of music and not introduced a second piece of music.
I hope you find the new year opening even more adventures for you. Judging by the images and your posts, I suspect your tendency for isolation and solitude won't change much. Even so, be safe and well, and best wishes to you and your family for 2021.
Thanks very much Steve for the feedback....I had reduced the interval between pictures to get the video under 5 minutes which I've read somewhere is the max expected attention span of your average Internet user. ;)
I'll try less pics with longer interval next video.
Love your photos from 2020, looking forward to what you capture in 2021. Happy New Years to the Chang Gang.
Thanks CCjon, Happy New Year to you and yours...safe travels.
So nice to see all the photos through the year all together. Beautiful and inspiring. Pretty decent stats for this crazy year. Looking forward to what you will have for 2021.. 😊
Thanks Bluekat....as to this new year, we'll see!
