thanks to this guy I'm working on doing a rally myself!

[@GigoAB]

This is how you tell a story! So honest, natural and refreshing! I watched the whole thing with a smile on my face. No artificial drama, scripted lines, no stupid music to increase tension... I was finally able to see something un American! Can't wait to get the time to watch all the other ones too. Great shots of riding, and very educational about how things work in a rally and just a happy journey all together as things like this are meant to be. Lyndon seems like such a great guy, I was constantly cheering for him not to give up! And Basil of course!

[@nutnfancy]

Epic, I watched the whole thing. Great job AS for putting video together, big respect goes out to Lyndon from me!

[@JohannesDalenMC]

How awesome to see you here, nutn - Been a long time subscriber of yours!

[@LusoCMD]

Really strange how few likes this video has, I'm an avid you tuber that just loves real stories, made by real people in a way just like life is. This is one of those videos, you can feel all the hardships and curve balls, you can be the most meticulous person on the world but that just takes you so far, the randomness is prolific. Congratulations Lyndon Poskitt and adventurespec for bringing this wonderful and ultra inspiring piece of someones life. Luis Cunha from Portugal.

[@timdudeney5072]

LusoCMD any other recommendations? I've only recently found these videos. Watching through them all.

[@DanielMores]

Jeez ... man ... fail after fail after fail and you keep your mind positive and your spirits up ... so inspiring.

[@osimnod]

Watched the whole episode and very impressed with Lyndon's attitude, determination, mechanical skills to inventively deal with the situation at hand and, of course, off-road riding ability! He had me shaking my head "No, don't take that line at that speed, you'll crash" -- but he did anyway. He's the Moto MacGyver! A note on the Rally: for being an International event with a not-insignificant entry fee, one would think they would have someone(s) on staff who would speak the major languages fluently to avoid the situation Lyndon endured. Thanks for compiling such an intriguing video series!

[@rahgahnah]

A big thank you (everybody) for putting this together, what a film! Lyndon I've gotta respect that you had the presence of mind to turn on the camera and shoot some footage on what must have been an intensely frustrating couple days. Good on you for persevering, making the best of it, and getting those performances at the end. Big time props to you!

[@jyrifilms]

This guy is unbroken! Superman on two wheels. Thanks for an amazing story, well done and told.

[@richardbrooke4858]

another great video thanks Jyri.

[@dennisgarryowen8885]

What an incredible achievement. You created a memory that you can cherish your whole life.

[@LightMagicAcademy]

What an epic adventure. Congrats Lyndon!

[@happytrader0]

Unique amazing one of a kind adventure. I felt I was there. Inspiring me to do it. One day? Thank for sharing it!

[@nimblybimbly4002]

I've been enjoying this series but I just had to say that the story of your (Poskitt's) perseverance in this event is an inspiration. Congratulations and thanks for sharing!

[@jahbay]

I like the way you ride. It's rare to see somebody who is smart and fast. Your courage is obviously tempered with experience. I too love to pull the throttle wide open in the desert. The fact that you do your own work is also impressive.

[@David500EXC]

Great video for the entire family. Adventure, determination and skill are hallmarks of this entertaining documentary.

[@hannesf752]

One of the best Rally Videos i have seen so far! Thank you for all the Work making all of this happen! Thanks!

[@luvu1x]

What a champion. Never give up.

[@jesse612]

WOW!!! Lyndon your truly a inspiration. Great Job!!! Time to go ride, cheers....

[@vincentbelho]

All the skills and expertise . . . but most of all the right attitude made it all the better to watch the whole Video.

[@Peeohtrek]

Awesome! Thanks for adding the bit with the price of shipping your bike from Magadan to Vladivostok.

[@DownwindSurfing]

Awesome stuff. Great sportsmanship to carry on through those first 5 stages of hardship. Well done on a great Rally. Really enjoyed watching your movie. Thank you for sharing. l

[@musaziz1948]

True British grit...I salute you Lyndon, one hell of a Yorkshireman.

[@hailamle1112]

Love this episode the most, so far! What a dramatic rally.

[@zimispector]

Fantastic video, what an epic adventure !!!! very inspiring!!! Thanks!!

[@kevinslover100]

Great rally Lyndon after dealing with so much trouble early on. Outstanding perseverance for sure. It's really inspiring to watch your adventure and be planning for a modest one of my own. Keep up the good work!

[@jibbajabba2648]

Must visit Yorkshire sometime.They do seem to breed them a certain way up there. Flintoff, Milner and now Poskitt to name but three. All Top lads. You are an inspiration my friend and you deserve all the accolades you get. Great work AS also, another great piece of work guys. YNWA

[@adambaxendale3654]

Freddie's a Lancashire lad

[@h.mushmann2351]

Awesome recap and finish of what started out as a major headache!

[@dragonquestbarrios1092]

You make it look so easy.. I enjoy this video so much.. Very well done. Keep smiling, and keep on two wheels..😀😀😀

[@Kolyan1981]

Very good man, rider! Nice show with amazing camera work and montage. Really inspiring your way of handling troubles during your adventure! So impressed by you, Lyndon! Care yourself and continue your Way! Respect from Russia!

[@michaelsharpe3500]

It's in Japanese Lyndon. The organiser (SSER) is based just over the mountains from me in Shikoku, southern Japan. I always fail SSER scrutineering, even though I can read Japanese!

[@ermagerd101]

What a great video. Thanks Lyndon and congrats on even just finishing such an epic race!

[@tomonabudget]

Great Editing. Great Adventure and looks like a great Bloke as well. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us and the effort that were put into this.

[@fighting77755]

This story is purely inspirational. Well done!

[@r16mustang]

Wow.. This was a very different, informative & amazing video I've watched on KZbin till date.. 🙏

[@Bigyin600]

Excellent viewing having watched a few of the previous clips this one should get an airing on normal TV

[@dustinboyce3728]

Around 4:00, the guy keeps saying, "I'm totally exhausted," and all I can think is STOP. Look at your surroundings! What a great adventure, regardless!

[@billyb6043]

Fantastic documentary...thanks for sharing, Good Luck and all the best for the future!

[@woudjee2]

Lyndon, I have such a crazy amount of respect for you! Awesome :D

[@donniebaker5984]

Im seeing this for the 1st time in 2020. Hope the world can get control of this corona virus soon. It is way past time for the world to put aside their differences and to fight our common enemy so adventures like this one can begin again !

[@rayleather8005]

Brilliant video Lyndon your a star, an amazing achievement & what great support from the guy's at AS again big respect from me.

[@thebrightstuffdotcom]

Great vid! Thanks for filming it and all the hard work making it into something very watchable.

[@dirkvanschalkwyk7943]

REALLY INFORMATIVE SHOW NICE TO SEE WHAT MECHANICAL PROBLEMS THE BIKE HAS OTHER SHOWS DONT SHOW

[@bigbiketrip9182]

Just watching this now, absolutely brilliant, and some really good results!

[@hound7638]

Absolutely I would be interested in seeing the Baja Rally footage.

[@juliendufour4513]

Amazing story!! perseverance is everything! congrats Lyondon

[@chr11sf]

Epic..nice work, good job you like adventure, Lyndon!! Well done, what an experience eh?!

[@dreskyify]

absolutely epic story and attitude for the race thank you superman on two wheels.

[@stirlingarcher2141]

Absolutely fantastic!

[@casperi2]

Dude Safety wire!! We Roadracers have to wire everything it seems. Great vid and thanks!!

[@pklugey]

Loved that...great video!

[@luckylanno]

I bet Lyndon's negotiation went something like "this is all going on youtube, do you really want 250,000+ people to know that you're a knob?" lol

[@lukeerspamer905]

This is awesome! I love these videos!

[@nspinicelli]

Question, from a street rider who wants to get into dirt... Why not get a tubeless tire conversion kit? Would make punctures suuuuuper easy, and can't you safely deflate your tires to like 20psi without tubes?

[@AustrisPhoto]

That black cars is not a range rover. It's a custom built rally Reid (Dakar) car called Oscar and it's built in Latvia!

[@globalsuperbike]

DIRT HERO. unbelievable determination.

[@richardeaton6119]

Great story! Well done.

[@johnsandlin7474]

This is man and machine at its finest.

[@Visionery1]

Why lock the video, some us want to download and watch on our TV as opposed to sitting in front of the PC for 1.5 hours?

[@captainklr6508]

Awesome brief!

[@JensEskildsen]

Awesome stuff Lyndon =)

[@RobertWoolford]

Outstanding!!!

[@henrikforsberg683]

Thats an amazing story!

[@jaejaejaejaejaejae]

That...was epic!

[@stevemackelprang8472]

Great stuff!!

[@Hoverbot1TV]

Pretty epic my BSA would last longer, 34 years and 160+ thousand miles and many a rebuild. Great determination man but is there a spare tire slasher rim? I stuffed straw in flat tires many years back to get the 441 home. -441rider

[@leebarnard1698]

This is amazing determination and riding and a really good watch. Thanks guys Does anyone know the name of the song and the band for the music that starts at 1:17:44

[@fiveandadime]

I have been watching a lot of lyndon recently and watching him get pissed at that Mousse, while I am sure annoying and a pain in the arse, the entertainment was top notch. Also the saltyness when saying he cannot accept help to the guys in the land cruiser was fantastic.

[@colinburnside8725]

Great video thank you.

[@icemonAesDana]

right enjoyed that...thanks

[@ShaneEdele]

Adventurespec, I noticed you don't have a center stand. I want to avoid buying a center stand for changing tires. What are those mechanisms you put on your bike to keep it upright???

[@driveman4588]

great video this guy is great

[@backwheelbob46rr]

Awesome legend !

[@andysal3216]

So cool !!!

[@jeanpierrelecaros8141]

Amazing!!

[@Crawlerking12]

Really impressive!!

[@darylj2617]

wow an hour and a half later... what time is it? great video!

[@RPV777]

what motorcycle you would recommend for me as i want to start adventuring! Yamaha XT 660 R YAMAHA XT660Z DRZ400 Honda xr400 Suzuki DR650 KLR 650

[@adamkujawinski1553]

***** I have a KLR 650, unbeatable

[@jasondodd6525]

Is that an oil cooler up near headlights 9:53? And two radiator guards. Are oil coolers common on rally bikes

[@zipodipo7923]

13:20 It can be really scary when you got gas on board that could blow up mid flight. I once had a camp gas cannister on board in the cargo hold which I had not declared. Customs got mighty pissed when they found it later. But just like he did I too waited all the time for the plane to blow up. Also I just wanted to say Lyndon does look a bit like Genghis Khan doesn't anyone think ? But he needs to grow the hair a bit. I like the long hair better.

[@gd109]

hey how to get entry into this mongolian rally? i mean how join? is there any web site? plz give it - - thank u = and is there any limitation about engene powr like maximum 500 cc or some thing like that ?

[@bergerniklas6647]

I don't know if there is a side, but Google knows almost everything. Normally on international rallys most have something like 450 ccm as a maximum, but basil is a KTM 690, so probably theres no limit at the rally mongolia or they made an exception. So if you really want to rally, you probably have to build up a 450 ccm bike or buy one.

[@HK-eb3by]

great perseverence

[@tuttobicci]

Loving these videos, but what''s happening to Lyndon's English accent.

[@Bballa11]

I wish I could find more raw onboard footage

[@islanddreaming8591]

Wow nice vid , , I am confused that Lyndon (as extremely world travelled as he is) seemed actually shocked by the theft of the Leatherman. IMO, leaving an item like that hanging on your bike anywhere in the world, you may as well hang a sign on it saying "for free please take" . Perhaps I am being cynical, but I just expect there to be dishonest people lurking everywhere, IMO it is only luck if you don't encounter them.., beware peeps and don't make it too easy for yourself to get ripped off.

[@Dufffaaa93]

What bike is that?

[@gundeprieved]

What bike is that. I somehow missed that. lol thanks

[@Tridente01a]

So great... thank you!!!

[@FOOKYOUTUBENUMBERS]

How come the police wouldn't let You in the horse race?????

[@Gwertop1234]

Can someone tell me what a muse/moose is?

[@elias2476]

instead of having air in the tube the rally riders fill it with moose so that they dont get punctures easily. it is special for motorbikes.

[@iross9667]

They are like a pre-inflated inner tube but filled with foam rather than air. They are more expensive than tubes and very difficult to fit as there is no valve to let them down. The foam breaks down if they get too hot so they don't work well at higher speeds on the road but they are good for off road racing as they don't suffer from punctures

[@Gwertop1234]

Iain Ross elias2476 ohhhhh ok

[@truobalanga6970]

thanks for the explanation. I was wondering what they are as well

[@KaizerBillimoria]

When the narrator of this film talks, in certain cases his voice trails off in volume. It's difficult to follow such diction. Better keep it even, like the bikes on the roads.

[@ThisTall]

If there was other English speaking riders in the rally, why would they just assume it was Lyndon getting illegal help from that guy? Sure he must have spoken to other riders to?

[@redwine65]

kewl!

[@CatatonicImperfect]

did lyndon use the golden tyre in the rally? maybe not the best episode to mention your tire sponsor. what with all the puctures and all.

[@DanBrianGerona]

47:58 that's scary going through a herd.

[@Tyrekickingwetdreamer]

wow

[@np939427a]

You should run a sheep over & take the bones out then rap it round the back tyre, it realy works good :)

[@ivicarod357]

now i know what determination means..

[@salisburyplain998]

The moral of the story would seem to be don,t use golden tires as there rubbish.

[@iross9667]

salisburyplain998 More that a bit harsh on the Golden Tyre. It would be more accurate to say that you shouldn't start a rally on mousses that have already travelled several thousand miles. The tyre only had issues because the mousse broke down, as would any tyre that was run at high speed completely flat.

[@salisburyplain998]

well based on the evidence Ill pass ,why would you start a rally on old mousses!!

[@iross9667]

salisburyplain998 Normally you wouldn't. I'm not sure if it was this video or the other one about the prep for the race, but in one of them Lyndon did say that he chose not to use fresh mousses because of the cost of getting them shipped.

[@salisburyplain998]

would seem very stupid to skimp on mousses but its not the first I have heard of golden tire mousses and tires failing in extreme conditions but fitting an old mousse is crazy and asking for trouble no matter what tire is fitted

[@katianebregaldastaudt6181]

[@elGringo69]

These mawphukas use to rule the world

[@erdenebolor-erdene5074]

hi

[@boomer3305]

i dont think politically it would look very good for a foreigner tp beat their own very popular riders
