Hi ,I used Google map on Galaxy Active Tab 2, pretty good set up, large screen, shock and waterproof . However, if you considered this set up I would recommend getting Galaxy Active Tab 3

@@piandthewheels Thanks!

Hi There Thank you for watching. Would highly recommend doing similar trip,well worth it. Re. Route, You could find some guidance on TET Spain website, I think there should be downloadable gpx files I did only those gravel section I have heard of before and accessible to my bike . But to be honest the Picos are stunning and pyrenees endless, full of fantastic roads and views Apart from having a very few points of interest I was traveling without a rigid plan

Glad you enjoyed it!Thank you for watching the 🙏

Thanks for watching 🙏

Both Amazing!! Tanks for watching 🙏

Thanks 👍weather helped

Hi ,over all happy with these tyres Now I have more confidence going on light off road/ gravel I don't think you loose much on pavement, these tyres actually are pretty good even on wet. The only problem was the noise ,which after couple of thousand miles either diminished or I got used to .Just came back from Pyrenees and Picos and tyres did great job on various types of roads and conditions. Would definitely recommend it

@@piandthewheels thanks, bit worried about vibration maybe from the anakee adventure., doubt I'd hear any noise from them with everything else going on.

I swapped over and am very happy with them.I’ve just come back from a few days travelling over Exmoor and Dartmoor ( 1k miles) I agree that they are noisier than Road 6s particularly when cornering but I can live with that .I felt they gave great grip on single track lane’s especially those with loose gravel.

Changing from road 6 to anakee adventure myself.

I swapped roads 5 for anakee, and happy with my choice, suits my style of riding Just did 2k miles trip to pyrenees and Picos ( mixed terrain and conditions) these tyres performed faultlesly

@@piandthewheels Thanks guys, going to give them a try.

Hi ,Thank you for watching. Yes tracks were very challenging at the time, especially in wet conditions We were pushed out of the comfort zone by the instructors Overall an excellent experience ,highly recommended 👍

If you don't mind a question, did you get exhausted by doing all that? I've signed up for a 4 day guided trail trip, hopefully not as technical as that and I feel I may not have the leg strength and cardio to make it through. I've started doing some exercises but being close to 60 I wonder if it's going to do any good. @@piandthewheels

Hi, I'm happy to answer any questions. That were a tough two days of riding as I had no previous experience of riding such a heavy bike in such a demanding terrain. I was tired more mentally rather than physically. (Being so tense whole time perhaps, costed me more mental effort then it would an experienced rider.) My physical conditioning is slightly above the avarage as I exercise on the regular basis(and work as a PT), so physically I was fine. We had regular breaks for snacks and drink(very important to stay hydrated etc) Regardless of the difficulties of your upcoming trip I would recommend investing some time in improving physical conditioning. Four days in the saddle still maybe demanding. One or two sessions a week in the gym + some extra time playing on the bike will make a massive diference. Out of interest, where are you planning to go?@@baldandbiking

The trip will go through Eastern Ontario, along rail trails and fire roads in the highlands. @@piandthewheels

Thanks

Would recommend watching Pol Tarres on T7

Thank you!

thank you

I've never tried Dct but there were some people riding dcts.They seemed to be doing ok and liking it Some people say it is easier to ride it in tricky terrain as you don't have to play with gears,clutching etc also almost impossible to stoll the engine I think at the end DCT must be tried whether suits the rider

Thank you, it is really beautiful island with lots of amazing spots ,from above looks even prettier with all those colours

Thank you for your kind comment

Thanks for the advice, i don't think I would trust on mud anything else than full knobblies .You are right, on pavement these tires are really good, subjectively I trust them more than road 5 ,especially cornering. Tyre pressure not sure tbh, I assume the guy has inflated them to the pressure as in the books I usually stick to 29-41 psi

@Pi and The Wheels with the pressure I run 25 front and 36 rear .yes the anakee has a softish sidewall but they seem to work really well on gravel at that psi.... keep up the content dude, ride safe.

Thanks, I'll double check the psi on mine, just out of interest. Safe riding!

Yes ,the weather was on and off down here as well. Tried to grab any opportunity to ride. Hopefully sunny days soon for us😁

@@piandthewheels March and Aprils Weather is alwasy so strange! :D This week no rain and +9°! Tomorrow its time to ride again! =)

Hi ,yes it is nice historical landmark, worth visiting if in the area, thanks for watching, safe riding!

YES, Indeed amazing bike. Can't remember which exact modes I was using as I was playing with differnt setting etc. but I asumme I must have:)

When going off-road you should switch to "Off-Road" mode and disable HSTC: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWSmk6WqjLOYZ6c And here is more off-road stuff: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnmtmKWOq8-LaZI

Hi Apologies for the delay in my reply to your comment. Would like to thank for kind words. Love Dartmoor and its" climate " Tried to introduce it to the wider audience with my limited skills. Glad someone liked it Thank you

Hi ,I have not used DCT bike yet.ON this occasion I ve chosen to use manual. However, I spoke a lot with guys using dct,and they swear by it,especially on turing or commuting. Apparently, off road does pretty well as well. At the end of the day, it must be tried as it is down to personal choice I guess

@@piandthewheels I have DCT and will never go back :) Honda owns me until another manufacturer decides to add DCT to their line up. Amazing tech.

Pity, but it may be the case everywhere these days Big rock moto still recommends buying 2019 model 1000cc Also, new Transalp 750 has been released recently, it may be worth checking

AT is a very capable bike ,I am a novice off road rider and the bike gave me a lot of confidence. Didn't feel heavy, although it is a heavy bike. We had an opportunity to test it in various terrain/surface and the bike was a pleasure to ride. Ofcourse for someone who does only trails there are better/lighter choices (crf 300 etc) AT is great all rounder with plenty of comfort for touring

Hi, yes you are pretty right that dropping 20k worth of bike would be no fun if it was yours. However, on this occasion, we were given a unique opportunity to ride/test AT in various terrain, on the road, gravel, green lines, etc without the stress of dropping it. That's the idea behind the 2DAYS EXPERIENCE, at HONDA ADVENTURE CENTRE UK. You never know in what type of situation/terrain you may end up in. Over that 2days I have learned a lot about this bike's strengths, abilities, etc. Great experience, highly recommended! regards!

Yes indeed, there are a few different venues in the area available to Honda adventure centre, plenty of land to train on.
