Having travelled in north and south India by bicycle, there is one thing I've learned. If you have an electrical or mechanical issue with anything, motorcycle, car, truck etc, just stop someone and ask if they know anyone who can help. In my experience, there has always been someone who can help, or at least point you to someone who can help. The rest stop would have been an ideal place to ask. People in India love to help, it is part of the culture.

Same in Vietnam, I had a flat tyre so I stopped and looked left and there were a bunch of people fixing bikes, this is common place in Asia, pay them a little money and they will fix it and possibly offer something nice to eat or drink

Wonderful videos. Love your lady driver. Incidentally, Vrindavan where Lord Krishna lived is the holiest place in India. I first came to India in 1981 and I'm a Hare Krishna devotee. Keep enjoying your travels 😊🙏

I wish you showed more meals and places you visited. If you were in Varanasi for several days, it would have been great to see more of the city…

@MariaWerner-sf1ef 10 дней назад

Yes, it gets boring just to see the roads you’re driving on. I would be very interested to see your meals as well.

In India it is always a good idea to drive behind a truck or any other big vehicle since they make way for you.

After four years in Sri Lanka, wearing out two horns, I learned that there has been developed extra strong horns for the Indian / Sri Lankan market. They’re a bit more expensive, but last longer.

@andrewwilson194 Месяц назад

I had a car with driver a few years ago to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal from Delhi and back, on the way home his horn stopped working and he announced he could not continue without a horn, I opened the bonnet and cleaned the earth wire connection and we were back on our way....

@DikWhite Месяц назад

I did likewise back in 1989. Cost me £40 for the return trip (5 hours each way). Would have been £50 with aircon but l chose the cheaper option. Big mistake, and it was in May which is the hottest month.🥴

@thecomment9489 Месяц назад

Not having a working horn on Indian roads is really a nightmare.

@maxineb9598 Месяц назад

Have travelled in a van in Thailand and instead of a coventional horn, its air horn had Police, Ambulance and Fire appliance sirens. Half way, we stopped so the driver could refill his " horn" with more air. Its surprising how many vehicles move aside for a sirdn rather than conventional horn.

@ElBrandenBrazil Месяц назад

Varanasi is so special. I have been there twice. My wife and I love your videos, and enjoy watching them every Sunday. You are wonderful people!

@kurotaka007 Месяц назад

Another interesting episode! I’m amazed that with all the poverty, Indian people seem to find a way to smile. Also want to compliment you on today’s video editing. Not sure if you’re using a Lut(?) would love to know? I retired to Kamakura Japan and have started my own channel on life as an American expat adapting to life in Japan. You’re brave, brave souls driving. Admire your calmness and ability to adapt. You’re an amazing couple! God bless!

@Nicolesibun Месяц назад

Marianne, was the excitement to use the roadside toilet justified? I’m dying to know 😂. You are just awesome! We are exhausted just just watching you, I imagine Chris has his foot constantly on that invisible brake. Can’t wait till the next episode x

When we were in India our driver said: whilst driving in India you need three things…good brakes, a good horn, and good luck! My heart went into panic when Trudy lost her horn. Kudos to you…we’d never drive in India!

@The_Travelling_Jonoberries Месяц назад

Good to see you guys again, you will certainly have fond memories of India, certainly a place where Chris could explore on his new bike. 😮 Tha k you for allowing us to be part of your journey through India, take care, god bless and until the next episode please take care 👍👍🙏😇

@ragbag46 Месяц назад

Your comment about if road two way brought to mind the brilliant attitude here in Thailand, even got asked it during my test, question when is it safe to go the wrong way down a one way road, answer when it is safe to do so, pure logic, brilliant.

@kimmcvitty3580 Месяц назад

😂 madness! Seemed to be the same in Cyprus when we were there. Didn't seem to be so much about if it was safe, just about if that was the way they wanted to go!

@josephdaly3327 Месяц назад

I think he was "subliminally" sending a message to our hosts to do the same, blast your radio in lieu of no horn. It's obviously a common fault over there, and I bet he's seen plenty of casualties by the roadside!

@Surila-yg2do Месяц назад

@@josephdaly3327 Not sure about them but I have seen many.

@Nomad111. 21 день назад

Indan road rules 1. there are no rules 2. the horn is a must for overtaking. 3. The bigger the vehicle the more right of way it has. 4. Flashing head lights from oncoming traffic means get out of the way I'm coming through. 5 Horn is the most important part of your vehicle. 6 Expect the unexpected. 7. Driving down the wrong side of the road is acceptable if done so with caution and constant use of the horn. This is because often there are concrete barriers in the road not allowing a U turn for up to 10 miles. So people take the the shorter way.)

So Cool you will be doing a dinner and dance in Telford, Shropshire, on my only trip to the UK, I stayed with Helen and Tom Shropshire, (near Leistershire), very distant relatives. Enjoy your drive! For evacuating the Gulf Coast of Texas there are several highway sections that are designated for an extra lane heading away from the coast/ but only for HURICANE evacuation times (not an every day thing), wild driving there in India keep having fun!

@dennismatthews6660 Месяц назад

@Aaron-P Месяц назад

Varanasi looked amazing!! The Indian people I've met all seem very friendly and engaging, seems the same in your videos. After they get over the disorienting sight of a couple Brits rocking up in a campervan, anyway! 😁 Trudy hadn't done that much shouting in all her life combined, and she lost her voice! That must have been a stressful few hours drive. Well done!! ❤️❤️😎👍xx

@jenna-a-gogo Месяц назад

It is also a good idea to use the vehicle infront as a shield when you want to take a turn

@user-ch1bs7we3c Месяц назад

@samm4265 Месяц назад

It is common for the horn on these vans to have issues from time to time due to where it is located, near front wheel arch area under air filter side and bolted to side wing, the cables often get dirty/corroded from water spray on the roads, cleaning the pins can sometimes help, the other issue can be with the steering wheel, lack of contact with horn because it needs more grease, either way hopefully a simple fix for you. It certainly looks hectic in India.

@sumantapramanik Месяц назад

Wrong way driving is not allowed in all the cities in India. It is regarded as offense in most of the renowned cities of India too. In Bengal border, Bihar and UP mainly have the issue of not following the driving etiquettes. Also about the road conditions, it is mixer of good and bad High Way Roads. Still in process of making good roads.

@kylek2623 Месяц назад

Good luck and safe Journey from Malaysia.

@solofamily19 Месяц назад

Wait for side may well mean what we do here in West Africa. Outside indicator on means do not overtake me as it's dangerous, inside indicator means it's safe to pass ... works brilliantly here, don't remember seeing it in India but I didn't drive myself there! Varanasi, home of my worst food poisoning/bacterial infection and 28 years later I still suffer on occasion 🙃 Why aren't you using iOverlander app? Brilliant to find garages, hotels, park ups ...

Loved the festival scenes by the river - and that is a nightly event??? Brings back the memories of being there many MANY years ago! Glad to hear Chris is feeling better - I DID feel the last two videos blogs were a bit samey (endless "oh cow/bike/truck/narrow space/market!") and just dashboard videos.Can understand now that Chris wasn't 100%. Welcome back!

It is crazy driving in India. For a foreigner it will be very difficult to drive.

@newdrone5766 Месяц назад

Loving your adventure. I live in India so can answer your question about "wait for side". What you do is make a friendly couple of pips of the horn, and a good driver will then signal with his hand out of the window to wait a little, then wave you past when the road is clear.

@TREADtheglobe Месяц назад

Thank you !!

@Ben_Dover_911 Месяц назад

When you have electronic problems, you can try to disconnect the battery for 15 min. (minus first). Sometimes it helps. Greets from Germany! 😉

@gregrodrigues5453 Месяц назад

Another bit of advice. In India you need a good powerful horn. Also it is always advisable to drive close to the road divider on the right. This way people can only overtake on your left

@susannetoon2709 Месяц назад

Negotiating those Roads and not scathed by sonething takes nerves of steel and deserves a medal which your community might give you in September and lors of hugs for carrying in regardless.And your amazing Inspiring quotes .Have a good rest over next few days and good healthy food.By the way you could buy a hand horn and Chris' could be in charge of that .!

Fuses blow when some other component fails and draws too much current. You NEVER replace a fuse without first identifying what is broken and fixing it. Randomly replacing fuses is how cars catch fire!

At 41:33, In Thailand, that left "Shoulder Lane," is the designated motorcycle lane that motorcycles are supposed to use. Cars and trucks must watch mirrors on both sides for bikes and illegal cars on the left as well as vehicles on the right. Did you read the road laws in each state of India? Finding a driving school usually helps find the road laws on the internet.

@sheilashells Месяц назад

I started watching your videos when you arrived in India (it was a suggested watch) and I must say, I’m totally hooked! Is there a reason you’re not showing what you’ve been eating? I’m very curious if, where, and how you buy food while in the road in India.

@janavanbeelen8489 Месяц назад

They usually do, I’m sure they will soon. Most of the focus on India so far has been just navigating the streets

@raymondporter2094 Месяц назад

In other parts of this journey (in Malaysia for example) they frequently showed us meals - often when driving they'd stop at roadside cafes.

@mrgyani Месяц назад

@@janavanbeelen8489 the rickshaw run series, which also involves brits driving through india is such a contrast to this. The one by Jack Harries, Louis Cole, (Ben Brown, Will and Harry) - done 10 years ago is still a classic. [ only Jack Harries, & Louis Cole have the videos still up. Ben had uploaded a single video - it was sick - but it got taken down because of copyright music ] Watch them if you want to get a feel for India.

@timhigham5487 Месяц назад

Extraordinary. There are no road laws in India. Both sides of each road, including motorways, are fair game for anyone! Lucknow is the centre of Muglai Cuisine if you can spare the time. Also the Residency is very haunting if you can find a guide to show you. An epic site in the struggle for Indian independence.
