Hi you two. Well done for making through the Wales TET. The ground clearance on those Van Vans is barely enough for some of those trails and, as I saw in an earlier video, not enough for one or two of them. Hope you don't need to use your ' On Location Doctor ' App. Speaking of which, I've just tried the App Store and can't find it. Has it closed, or changed it's name? - See how I smoothly linked to that - I'm off on my own Adventure in about 10 days ( UK to Capetown ) and planned to download the App before I leave, but now can't find it. Any ideas?
Yip that was rough, I have wiped 3 times offroad and all were downhill with something that threw my front off. Gotta just take it at an easy and controlled pace, keep ur weight all the way back, arms nearly straight and up on your pegs with mainly back brake.
Hi Lavi and ollie, Don't cry Lavi you are doing great 👍, And ollie putting the rabbit before yourself a true gent,The pizza looked yummy 😋 , Im glad to see you smiling by the end of the video, Take care and best wishes to both of you. From Roy 😊.
Guys you are amazing, and Lavi, you are fantastic at getting out of the bike when it decides to go its way😅😅. I wish to be like you, I fell twice, and twice I couldn't ride the moto for months. Thus, be proud of yourself, you've achieved much more than most of people, me included.
Good to see you managed the Wales section, theres more fun coming up in north yorkshire, hope the rain stops away for some of that, shame the ponderosa was closed as its nice, but you found an alternative anyway, Lavi is still learning what ollie knows.
Hola L&O, Lavi, I want to just start by saying I am so, so proud of you! That was a rough, very rocky trail. When you're frustrated, think about all you've accomplished in the short time you've been riding! You rock! Ollie, you are the perfect person to help her. You both are really killing it on this trip. It has not been easy. Oh, how tasty those blackberries looked. Yum! We're they as sweet as they looked? Beautiful drone footage with the bright greens and the cows running along. So pretty. I'm hoping you had blue skies and rockless trails the rest of the way! Safe and happy travels, see you in the next one. Happy and alive! Lots of love, Sue ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing. I have 51 years of motorcycle experience. I did off road in my first 5 years. After seeing your series I will never travel any part of the Trans Euro Trail. We have so many exciting places to go in Europe and so many good roads. There is no reason to copy others - especially when their suggestions are dubious. There are no places motorcyclists absolutely have to go. We are not lemmings.
Beautiful vid guys. All good. A confidence builder for Lavi. Those blackberries, yum. Ollie how fortunate to have a partner that can set up the tent while you run around. Interesting and beautiful. A narrow boat ride or a canoe trip. Maybe a pack raft ride. That aqueduct is unbelievable. Sure it has a Roman connection someway. Long way down if you fall out of the boat. All good from east Kentucky USA. Next time. Lavi you just think those rocks are testy, India will bring out the real terror, Tata's everywhere. You are doing great for a new rider. Safe travels where ever you are now.
Stop being a child about the steep rocky path Lavi, be positive n persevere. At least u r doing it with Ollie. Just to remind u that u r living ur dream that most people r not able to, even think about it.... sorry, just saying...but I still like ur channel. Good job n live life..😊
LAVI!!! This episode made me admire and adore you even more than I already do!!🩵 I tell Pendley every time we watch your episodes that I love you never give up. You'll have a meltdown or make noises as you push through, but you never give up. You said you're not gaining experience but you are!! I told Pendley tonight, "That's it I need to get good riding my motorcycle so if they make it to the states (namely Central California) I want us all to be able to ride around here. Keep pushing your limits girl. You've got this! 🩵🏍
Fear is not a barrier to adventure; it’s the fuel. Every twist of the throttle is a step into the unknown, and every moment of uncertainty is a reminder that you're truly alive!! Happy and Alive.. I know the road can be tough at times, but every challenge you face is just another chapter in your story. Remember, the obstacles you're facing right now are shaping you into someone stronger, braver, and more resilient. Keep going, one step at a time, and trust that you're headed toward something great. You've got the strength within you to handle whatever comes your way. Keep your eyes forward, your spirit strong, and never forget why you started. You're capable of more than you know! You've got this, Lavi! 🤙💪
I told you it doesn't always rain in God's country ! Loveing your videos continue to enjoy your trip, my best wishes to you all from the Philippines ❤️💋🌹👍💪😉😀😁🏁🏁🏍️🐑🇵🇭🏴⭐
Hi guys, honestly I still think you should've completed an offroad ADV course before you decided to take on the TET. Lavi' you wouldn't have been so "terrified" if you had learnt the proper techniques. As far as picking your bike up alone Lavie , check out 'Doodle on a motocycle's' video from 6 days ago, she is much smaller and lighter than you and picks up a 250kg BMW. Every video I'm shouting "do a course" at the screen and it pains to see you upset yourself, but then again there is the saying "warum einfach, schwer gehts auch"😉 ride safe guys "🖤❤💛"🇬🇧
One more piece of advice. When you drop your bike and want to pick it up, turn your front wheel in the direction you are lifting the bike. Wheel face the sky not the ground. It will save you a lot of energy.
Lavi, Im so impressed with your bravery just starting out as a new rider and hitting such challenging roads. I was super impressed with Ollie for taking in a big bike with a passenger around the world, impressed with you both in that one, but watching you overcome your fears is making this journey interesting. One piece of advice that’s at least true in Canada but likely everywhere…don’t pick fruit or berries below waste level on a path or road. Boys will use any tree or bush for a urinal walking home from the pub.
Yeah... some of those downhill bits on the last couple of days were... horrendous. Those weren't made with motor bikes in mind, thats for sure! But, you survived, the bikes survived, and you've still got smiles on your faces... Looking forward to the rest. It'll be a doddle after the Welch Tribulations!
You guys are real go-getters, it makes sense that you get scared of those descents on paths with all those rocks. Unfortunately, it is also the case that that fear makes you fall. It's just like skiing 😉
There's a new guy on social media giving lessons on dirt bike riding and he'd be helpful. If I find him again I'll put his name down. He's a good communicator.
