Kudos to you Sir ! Clearly, as soon as you leave the UK you gain health and good spirit for the soul, must be mad to live there. I bet you never seen a sky like that Make the most of every fleeting moment and stay safe, I'm sure you've made your provisions and got further back plans God forbid should anything happen whilst riding your bike. Whoever is doing the editing for you is doing a great job, I love the music too ! Many thanks for sharing, sadly most of us are just limited to watch other people riding their bikes.. Cheers !
I'm 54 years old, and I've been dreaming of such a trip every day for twenty-five years. I don't have a motorcycle or the financial strength to make this dream come true. And I'm going to dream about it until I die.
A former colleague of mine once said to me regarding eating food abroad "Cook it, fry it, peel it or forget it". Doesn't have to be anything wrong with foreign food, just takes time to adjust...
Yes, totally. But for the moment I just don’t want to go down with dheli belly while I’m riding - as there just isn’t any roadside services in this part of the world.
I've been following your epic journey with great interest. Most of us who've reached a 'certain age' are winding down and putting the feet up, but not you and I sincerely applaud you for that. The solitude, the terrain and being totally at one with your own company and the bike, is totally awesome. I wish you every success with your journey and will be watching your further uploads with considerable interest. Take care for now.
#awesome - Montezumas revenge ... 🤣 I've been 10 days to Morocco, ate local food every day, without any problem. So this is highly individual ... So get well soon Ian and take care, Gerhard
Yes, that was a nice little place to stop. It wasnt quite an oasis, but it was a great place to stop for a break and some shade. I cant even begin to remember where it was.
I bring most of my kit into the tent overnight. I get undressed and dressed in the tent, partly to avoid shocking any onlookers but also to avoid any creepy crawlies. I also keep the inner tent firmly zipped up until I need to get in or out as again, it keeps out all the pests. I saw a ‘thing’ this morning, which looked like an ant with claws. Horrible…
welcome back - dont eat anything in morocco or even drink from taps - boil everything first and food wise you can goto french supermarkets or get tinned stuff - careful of bottles of water they reseal them and sell tap water - its a great place and the people are great but it has a well deserved reputation for issues with food and water...
Having been hospitalised for a week in Malta after a week in the hotel dying beforehand from eating seafood (clams -suspect). I totally understand where you are coming from. An episode I have never forgotten and was 34 yrs ago. I had to miss flights home with family. Didn’t realise how serious dehydration could be especially in a hot country. After 2 weeks I find walking quite difficult and had to get place home. That 4 hrs on the plane I was watching the toilet doors incessantly 😂😂😂😂. You are much braver than me doing Morocco. Great series thankyou. Is Morocco cheap? Freddie dobbs had serious issues accessing cash points and card payments, how have you found it
Great videos, thank you. One thing that always stresses me while watching is what happens if you broke down, what is plan B ? Sorry to mention something negative but just wanted to know how you are dealing with that thought ? Anyway, hope it NEVER happens and safe riding !
I have tools with me, plus duct tape, cable ties and WD40…. If I break down then I’ll just have to see what the issue was. I broke down in Sweden last year. Took me a day to sort it but I got here going again. A wire from one of the daytime running lights had worn on the headstock and was shorting out the whole electrics. Fingers crossed….
Great video again Ian, really whetting my appetite for next year thanks I don't know if you do any stargazing, but that camping spot must be brilliant for it. Cheers and stay safe. 👍😎
That can happen a lot when travelling. There are huge parts of the world where the scenery hardly changes from day to day. If you don’t like that sort of thing it’s best to plan carefully before setting off.
@@davidmatthews3093hi david and others, I’m not critiquing the route and I agree with you, ie route planning etc I’m merely expressing my opinion that seeing landscape like that for mile after mile I find boring and the roughness of the stony road I would find tiring and tedious not to mention the in my opinion unnecessary wear and tear on the bike. I would go to the fringe of this area, view it from a height, appreciate its a wilderness and move on to something worth visiting. Thks
@@onemanonebike8514 No you don’t have a screw loose, we all as you say are different, I’m glad we all see things differently, beauty is in the eye of the beholder as the saying goes. Am enjoying your videos immensely, wish I was doing touring in a warm clime. Enjoy
I have a question about your trangia as i have a 4 week trip planed for next year and was wondering how it is to find meths to fuel it as i am trying to find out which kind of stove would be best to take.
Hi buddy, compulsive viewing, I'm catching up with your other videos. I'm sure you have been asked before but what software do you use to edit and post up. I'm just about to start on my own small journeys, so any advice from an expert would be great. Thanks
Hi Terry. I'm using something called Filmora to edit my video's but I'm not liking it as you need to log-in to your account via the internet before you can export a finished video. Alas, its too late to try anything else now so I've just got to make the best of it.
