About this film
This Common Tread XP episode turns the search for Christmas trees into a motorcycle journey. Rather than contend with crowded, overpriced tree lots or make a run to Home Depot, Zack and Ari head for the Sierra Nevada on an adventure-bike pairing the description calls an odd couple. The ride brings the Africa Twin 1100 and Scrambler 1200 XE together in the same outing, giving the film its central contrast without losing sight of the trip’s seasonal purpose. Published in December 2020, the episode runs for just under 21 minutes.
The journey
The destination is the Sierra Nevada, where Zack and Ari set out to find Christmas trees. The supplied title places the journey among mountains and snow, while the description identifies the two motorcycles carrying them there: Honda’s Africa Twin 1100 and Triumph’s Scrambler 1200 XE. The film’s premise is a practical seasonal errand approached as a ride, rather than a conventional trip to a crowded retail lot. Its focus is the pair, their contrasting motorcycles and the mountain-bound outing.
What to expect
- A Christmas-tree ride into the Sierra Nevada
