36 Hours in the Tent at the Arctic Circle | Motorcycle Adventure on Dempster Highway - EP. 256

This episode is from my way back from the Arctic Circle. This time, the legendary Dempster Highway surprised me with rain and fog, which forced me to spend 36 hours in the tent waiting for the weather to clear up.

In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
Throughout my journey, I'm raising money for a young disabled child in Poland named Franek. Franek was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (weakness of the entire right side of the body) and he will require constant rehabilitation for the rest of his life. All the money raised will go directly to helping Franek and his family lead as normal a life as possible so please donate generously: gogetfunding.com/arewethereyet/
None of that would be possible without my official sponsors:

I know that exhaustion feeling that only being on a long bike trip can bring. It's a deep tiredness that one or two nights of good sleep can't fix entirely. I kinda had to recover from it over a week or so once off the road. How you keep going and going and going is testament to your stamina and determination. My hero!

[@JackHumphrey]

People don't give arctic bunnies enough shoutouts for their support! Thank you for appreciating the Long Ear Tribe!

[@onherbike]

Thank you 😊

[@drabbit61]

The contrast between those vivid blue skies and the exhausting greyness of the rainclouds is kind of a metaphor for life, and your trip. Hang in for the sunny times Kinga.

[@bchost]

Further North you go the smaller the trees get until just North of Inuvik they're gone completely, nothing but tundra. Interesting thing is those small trees are just as old. Stay safe, enjoy your trip Kinga!! Sending lots of Love your way super lady!!

[@onherbike]

Thank you 🙌

[@bobdrifter2402]

Delighted to hear that you, like Willy Nelson, woke up still not dead again today. stay safe, Kinga.

[@Wrong-Way-Round]

Goot timing Kinga, funnily enough even on a normal holiday trip you're allways faster getting home, what I can't understand tho' is, the fuel consumption stays the same for that 'shorter' ride 🤔 PS, 36hrs in the tent, I would have made a rabbit stew 😉😋😋

[@hyderfroyo]

What a tough girl you are, Kinga. Best wishes for ya! 🎉

[@oldmadandkiwi]

Hi Kinga I to lived full time on my motorcycle traveling over , through,over Australia. I have stopped to work as I'm headed back sailing Mexico ECT . I'm not sure if you suffer the nothing is ever enough,never really look back and remember the epic rides .I guess life is in the moment 🎉

[@eabdalrahman200]

🇪🇬♥♥I love videos very much. I am from Egypt

[@lesterhutchins1621]

I always hated going back the same way until i saw what i missed. Nice pics.

[@DonPlaton]

Spectactular, thank you Kinga! Sometimes this is what riding is like.

[@khalrashidi]

Hello kinga, patience is always beautiful. Greetings to you.👏💯👍

[@retiredwaterdoctor]

enough dirt and camping for a while.....😁.....thanks for taking us along.

[@Don-ev5ov]

When I was under ten years old my dad took me from NM to CA in a tiny car. We stopped one night to sleep next to a lonely road in the desert and I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a giant jackrabbit outside my window that I have never forgotten. I am glad you had an Arctic bunny for company. A few might find the landscape monotonous but I consider it stunning. 36 hours in a tent without a tortoise attack!

[@enduromotorradtouren]

Vast landscape, quite unlike tiny Europe. Give Chillie a good wash after that muddy road. Happy new Year, Günter/Nürnberg

[@bobholley6202]

38 hours in a tent! At least you had the bunny! Awesome job!

[@onherbike]

Exactly! My Arctic Bunny was near my tent for the whole time. It was nice to have company. We had lots to talk about 😊

[@danielmcneil3004]

Thanks for the great Arctic adventure Kinga. Wherever you are , have a wonderful Christmas and ride safe. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦

[@onherbike]

Thank you 😊

[@badfinger61]

Good job, Kinga! That was epic. The Dempster is quite the ride -- glad you made it through the wet weather in one piece. That's a tough highway when it's dry, never mind the wet weather. That little bunny was just popping round to see that you were OK! As always, massive respect. Safe travels!

[@onherbike]

Thank you 🙌

[@malgraham351]

Thanks Kinga

[@johnclark2212]

Rain, rain, go away and come another day!

[@brucegerken1063]

Great video thank you very well done as always thanks for taking us along cheers to ya.

[@vangoodwin7335]

Good Evening Miss Kinga and Chillie, A Gorgeous Young Lady and her fabulous hair show us mortals how to live. Yes, Miss Kinga I consider you a Goddess! I too ride in the rain quite often but i know my limits. For the fools that put you down for sitting out the rain in the tent, let's remind them that even on your knobby tires traction was sketchy so on our street tires we wouldn't have stood a chance. The better part of being an OLD long distance rider is knowing when to sit back and take it easy, no matter how hard that is. You did well Miss Kinga and didn't drive yourself too crazy in the tent. I am not one for washing my bikes except when i am prepping them for a new paint job or maintenance, but i think Chillie deserves a warm soapy bath! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy Happy New Year Young Lady With much Love and Respect, You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

[@onherbike]

Thank you 🙌

[@freddavis175]

That is Alaska! Evert time I road thru it the skies were gray with lots of rain and green.

[@BlackdogADV]

Yep, I’ve done it 4 times before. Congratulations on camping remote and solo. Most men won’t even do it. I generally take bear spray but not always.

[@noelbowerman1562]

Merry Christmas ,Kinga ,thanks so much ,for taking us along for another year of adventures ❤

[@onherbike]

Thank you for watching 🙌

[@johncarlson9999]

"Mozzies" (I like that one).

[@shine2417]

Good morning 🌱✌🌺

Videolarini zevk ile takip ediyorum ,sana Berlin'den sevgiler 😊

[@my357mags]

Kinga! You looked so sad sitting in your tent. Glad you made it alive! 👍

[@andrewscultety149]

Great!

[@qzorn4440]

OnHerBike has the makings of a great Hollywood movie. 🥳 A pretty girl by herself touring the world. 👱‍♀ With lots of action. It's faster downhill from the top of the world. 😊 Very cool eyes. Your trusty motorcycle.

[@bil19631963]

Brave lady. That is for sure...❤

[@TheDavidGoldmanphoto]

Nice one mate!!!

[@user-iw5yt2bg4d]

Wow!!!!! Great!! Wonderful!! You are super woman!! Increadble!! Fantastic!!

[@marek9216]

Hey Kinga, wybieram sie w nastepnym roku do Tuk, jestem ciekawy jak naszybciej i najwolniej na Dampster highway jechalas. Ja mieszkam w Albercie Kanada. Dzieki Marek. Wesolych Swiat Bozego Narodzenia i Szczesliwago Nowego Roku.

[@onherbike]

Hey, w ostatnie lato Dempster highway było w bardzo dobrym stanie. Momentami można było jechać nawet 100km/h. Ale warunki pogodowe i traffic mogą Cię bardzo zwolnić. Myślę że w dobrą pogodę minimum potrzebujesz 2 dni w jedną stronę (ale to będzie w pośpiechu). Mi zajęło 7 dni w dwie strony tak na luzie.

[@rosslangerak8361]

36 hours is a long time to live in a small tent. I carry a small, ultralight tarp and two sectioned poles, plus about a dozen spare tent pegs and guy lines and some paracord. In the rain I can set up the tarp and have shelter to set up the tent. The tarp provides shelter for the entrance to the tent, and a place to sit and cook when I'm not in the tent. Doesn't help with the mosquitoes though. Get a tarp with multiple tie-down points. I didn't and I wish I had. Great adventure.

[@aboahmed908]

You are truly wonderful. Because you travel the world alone and are not afraid of risks. I love you so much

[@onherbike]

Thank you 😊

[@suek.1507]

Hope you're having an awesome time wherever you are, and I'm sure your hair looks great! This was another great video, and I felt sorry for you for being stuck in the tent. I hope Mr. Bunny was good company. Safe travels and see you in the next one whenever thst is.

[@onherbike]

This Arctic Bunny was awesome. He woke me up in the middle of the night. When I saw his face though the net for the moment I thought it was a kangaroo 😂

[@suek.1507]

@@onherbike Lol!

[@fireman12464]

Nice episode Kinga, pity about the rain. 👊🏼💪🏼👌🏼👍🏼🤩

[@ericlunn5323]

Absolutely marvellous . . .

[@lizdg3892]

You are an amazing rider and adventurer. Plus you always have the best kit. ❤😂

[@onherbike]

Thank you

[@martinforrester8249]

That was an awesome ride Kinga, you are so resilient, you just have to go with the flow I guess.

[@onherbike]

It's the best way🙌

[@robb907]

We stayed at the nova the first night in Inuvik. The room felt like it was 100°.

[@FaisaL..11]

Its name should be The Journey of Mud and Rain

[@rodneyturton0]

Wow, you got all the to Tuk. I was there in 1991 and had to fly in from Inuvik. Don't think there was a road back then into Tuk?

[@khalrashidi]

[@onherbike]

Thank you so much 🙌

[@andareloj]

Awesome, keep it up!

[@helios1225]

Wieder einmal eine schöne Episode! Das diese Gegend nicht günstig ist, habe ich gewusst. Aber das sie so teuer ist, das war mir nicht klar.

[@onherbike]

In remote areas hotels are always expensive.

[@donmartin9567]

I was through that stretch of road this July. I hit rain and next to zero visibility before Eagle Plains and the road was "slicker than Snail Snot". Guess you could say ice but in any case not something for a bike. Add to that the ran coming down and visibility so poor that the only way I knew I was in a corner was that I started to ride off the road. Speed was down to the 20kph area at times, just holding on for dear life. Stayed overnight at the Motel in Eagle Plains (C$210 a night) and the next day the fog had lifted a bit and the rain had stopped but of course the road was still crap. But, it had drained somewhat so managed to ride down to Dawson City without incident other than having to slow down a lot in a few sections.

[@onherbike]

I had no idea Eagle Plains hotel is so expensive 😳🙈 This road can be tricky in bad weather but we made it 😊💪

[@donmartin9567]

In Inuvik I paid C$270 a night. And, that was getting in just past midnight and having to be gone by 11:00AM checkout. Oh and paying C$60 for a campsite on the Arctic Ocean seemed rather expensive to me as well considering that only gets you a small piece of dirt ("maybe" grass) and a picnic table with outhouses nearby! @@onherbike

[@themosaito]

Hi, where did you get those fantastic graphics for your helmet? Were they made specially for you ?

[@onherbike]

Yes, my helmet was hand painted by an artist from Austria.

[@johnzee691]

(Edit: Sorry .. june ´23 ) How old is this footage ?

[@ferco59fcg]

👍👏👏👏👏✌️🇪🇦

[@richiebe3002]

Eagle Plains has just changed their name to Eagle Rains...

[@onherbike]

😆

[@richiebe3002]

Kinga, being so tired all time as you sleep in your tent and sit on a motorcycle isn't normal at your age. My guess is that good aerobic exercise is needed or maybe some meditation would help.@@onherbike☮
