My girlfriend and I went on our first motorcycle camping holiday in 1979. We took three weeks from Denmark trough Germany, Schweiz and France to Monaco and back on my $1200 two stroke GT550 using paper maps. Our age was not half of this bloke but we brought our rain gear and packed our stuff in cheap plastic bags. I'm 66 years old and had a nice motorcycle holiday this summer camping in Osterode am Harz - even with 5 days out of 9 with rain. I don't find it interesting watching twats complaining about rain and "slippery roads", staying in luxury hotels and calling it an adventure or an expedition. Sorry. Have a nice holiday.
@TheIndianCrusaderКүн бұрын
This warrants a response. lowering yourself to an insult (Twat) to someone you do not know at the age of 66, really? Secondly, complaining about conditions on this ride and staying in luxury hotels? You sir have this series very much confused. Furthermore, this 'nice holiday' has turned into a rider giving up his time, money and energy to now raising over $20,000 for Australians in need.

@@TheIndianCrusader You may well like CCs channel. Like yourself, his vlogs are about the ride and not about himself. In your case you're also including the good spirit and joy that the footy component brings to the young blokes from out back communities. You both narrate as you go (you do well with one camera and the rear view of the ride as you're narrating works well) and don't overdo the "selfies" or excessive non motorcycling banter that some channels have.

Mate, please ditch those bungee straps and swap out to the proper ratchet cargo straps. The cargo straps won't let go and leave your stuff down the road, possibly causing an accident. I remember a bloke in Tassie who had his bag strapped on the back of his Suzuki Katana with bungee straps /occy straps. The bag went onto the back wheel and locked the rear wheel up at 180 kph! He came off at that speed and all he got was a smashed ankle.😳 Could've been a lot worse. 🇦🇺
