Kenneth is right Jonathan, momentum is your friend. 10 to 15 kph through that little creek and you wouldn't have even noticed it. Practice for 15 minutes where you camp every night with your bike unloaded and get your confidence up.

[@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr]

I totally agree with you on your campsite logic. In the rural area where I live in Tennessee of the USA, most everyone will let you camp for the night, as long as you “take nothing but pictures and leave nothing but footprints”. Great ride on the TET. Ride safe Kenneth!

[@RidetheBean]

Right??! 😅 makes no sense to me to have it banned. Even on private property. In Norway it doesn’t matter if someone owns the land. You just have to be 140 meters from someone’s house. Unless you are harming something they can’t kick you off just because you are camping for a night. Given that you do those things I said of course…

[@teneretraveller8980]

Good one. They record your registration when uou enter Portugal, and link it to a credit card so that on toll roads without barriers they can deduct fees automatically against your credit card when the overhead cameras record you passing. Ifvyou take the small ferry from Ayamonte into Portugal you can avoid this. But the bridge is spectacular. Agree about electronics. Too many bikes too complex now. All very clever but I refuse to wait 5 minutes for ny mate in the mornings while he adjusts all his settings. It's a right faff. We agree about camping. Leave only footprints and what's the problem? Good watch. Happy travels 👍

[@marko41]

Welcome to Portugal! When travelling across the Algarve ( Southern region) The A-22 has tolls and the N-125 does not.

[@eddiejaoude]

Looks great! I can't wait to try part of it in the UK and Portugal

[@ridewfox]

I hope you enjoyed crossing my country. I'm glad to see Jonathan still on this TET crusade. Ride safe.

[@2WheelFreak]

Great stuff as always guys! I had some initial problems with toll roads there too! We actually skipped the barriers.. I'm sure that'll come back to bite us! Great to see some TET.. defo try the ACT if you can, its really good.

[@marionstravels6641]

Great video! I really enjoy watching your adventures!

[@RidetheBean]

Than you 😊 Thats nice to hear

[@rideyourbike]

Welcome to Portugal! Nice stay.

[@RidetheBean]

Thank you 😊

[@rootbox]

Interesting the slightly different architecture and watching the topography morph. Quite easy to enter countries over there, it seems.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah within the EU there are no borders. We can all travel freely. Except for during a pandemic 😅

[@fredeaton5543]

Hello. Really enjoying watching your adventures. Can I suggest adding some music to your vlogs. I have no idea how hard or easy this would be to do. Just think it would be a good addition. Keep safe. Fred.

[@RidetheBean]

There is usually music in the videos. Just depends on what’s happening. But thank for the feedback 😊

[@Fallegariders]

Je recommande le E-13 à l'avant qui roule très bien dans tous types de terrain même sur le goudron

[@coobye]

So I'm guessing when you get to Australia I won't be taking you to the Simpson Desert😂😂. Agree totally with your sentiments on camping. Being in Australia where we can camp anywhere I find it hard to fathom that it's illegal to camp in Europe. I've noticed that Europeans generally don't have campfires either. Gathering wood is the second thing we do over here after putting up the tent.

[@RidetheBean]

Hehe depends on what season 😅 not mid summer 🥵 Yeah it’s the same in Norway and Sweden. So for me it is extremely weird not to be allowed to…

[@robertkoper3039]

Yes Kenneth I agree ,,wild,,camping should be accepted as normal.However there is not a lot of common sense with most people and they would leave a mess or make fires where it is really dangerous most of the year..But I just think there are enough places to camp and not be seen so not really an issue.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah there are. But by banning it it you don’t give people a chance to learn about nature either. There are other ways to deal with those issues. Banning access to nature should be considered a crime in itself in my opinion…

[@Fallegariders]

Le pneu Mitas E07 est catastrophique sur le sable Il faut le monter à l'envers pour minimiser le coup du guidon 😊

[@ianbentley2007]

Kenneth I have a tiger and yes total pain in the rear to stop and change to off road. What I do if you know your going to do off roading in your day I just switch it to off road even on tarmac What you have to remember every time you switch the engine off it resets to road mode.

[@cdb7876]

We are now in 🇵🇹 Portugal!!! I don't see why you can't "camp" in nature! Also curious what you guys eat while camping? Stay cool and safe!!!

[@pukinator1]

because people dont clean up their shit

[@x_Paulo_Nogueira_x]

Wild camping its ilegal, ppl tends to doit with no problems, but its ilegal ;)

[@RidetheBean]

Awesome! Enjoy it! Yeah I agree! It is just silly… we usually eat things that are very simple… lots of pasta 😅

[@bradb2514]

Fantastic! On average, how many miles do you ride in a day? Or how many hours.

[@RidetheBean]

That varies a lot. But ideally I like to spend about 6 hours on the bike per day. Much more I get tired and don’t enjoy it that much. And much less I don’t really get anywhere. But it really depends on where I am and where I’m going and why. Some days Inspend 12+ hours and some just a couple of hours.

[@bradb2514]

Thanks Kenneth. I’m finding that my mileage is unpredictable so I guess that’s the same for everyone. Ride safe!

[@AdventuringAround]

Maybe you get this a lot, but would you two consider getting some sort of comunicators? Love your channel! Keep it up! 🍻🤗

[@RidetheBean]

We did. But because Jonathan chose the cross helmet it doesn’t fit. Glad you like the channel 😊

[@shawnrojas9716]

Itchy Boots would have ride right through that little water crossing, Step it up! LOL

[@RidetheBean]

She has a lot more experience than both of us. We are brand new to this. But we get better every day.

[@brucegerken1063]

Great video thank you very well done I don't do well in sand either thanks again cheers to ya.

[@RidetheBean]

Thank you 😊 glad you liked it 😛

[@ptilrem]

Allemannsretten FTW. It puzzles me why the countries down in Europe bans camping. They should have the same rights that we norwegians have around that topic.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah me too 🤷🏼‍♂️ people keep saying it is because people leave trash and beak trees… but is that really an argument for banning the use of nature?

[@9koranElkarim]

How are you, kenneth, I came to Morocco and we did not see a video on your channel in Morocco

[@RidetheBean]

Hey! No not yet. The videos are a bit behind reality. But it will come soon enough 😛

[@9koranElkarim]

I wish you the best of luck

[@LasseCLand]

seeing how hot you are, and the heat that is now in south/midle of europe, my next MC cloths are going to be from adventurespec and do the layer system^^

[@RidetheBean]

Hehe yeah if I could afford a summer and a winter suit that would be awesome! But too much money, and I can’t carry both on the bike 😅

[@LasseCLand]

hehe true :P but getting the down heated jacket that Thansen is braging so mutch about will take care of that :P but i know the feeling, soldt my hornet to buy a car, now need to save up for a bike ^^

[@wolfmanwolfman4551]

👍👍👍

[@LongPondNH]

One word answer to the question about having to stop for offroad mode: Lawyers.

[@RidetheBean]

😂 yeah…. But why? Why do lawyers argue this is a good thing?

[@LongPondNH]

@@RidetheBean They're anticipating product safety claims from morons and opportunists. "I wuz ridin and changing modes and I hit a tree, so it's the bike's fault, pay me" Not true everywhere, but definitely true in the US.

[@thedanishvikingpilgrim5753]

Good luck trying to convins spanish police of your camping theory 😁

[@RidetheBean]

Hehe well… I just have to make sure they don’t see me then 😉

[@marksimpson5218]

You would have to be very unlucky to get caught in the middle of nowhere camping. I should think the police have far more important things to deal with.

[@azlong4596]

My Aprilia Tuareg 660 you can change modes on the fly.

[@RidetheBean]

That’s good. Wonder why you can’t on the Tiger

[@chipm2544]

Great video. Ah, more soft, deep sand! That's great (I'm kidding). I'm trying to not let sand know how much it intimidates me. Nice to see you guys have soft, deep sand too like here in North Florida, USA.

[@RidetheBean]

Hehe yeah the damn sand is very scary 😅 but just need to go for it. The faster you go the easier it is

[@davidmallia628]

Agree totally on your ideas of wild camping. There should be a distinction. Wild camping is simply putting up a tent and resting before driving on. Sure, in today's fire hazard situation, strict fire protocol must be adhered to. But nobody can tell you not to sleep outside. It is like dictating that you do not breathe the air. Simple as that, and nobody should accept such dictatorial rules.

[@buteos8632]

In the EU you're not allowed to freely breath!

[@charliem5332]

I never paid. I whizzed past.

[@RidetheBean]

Hehe yeah we stayed off the highway so didn’t really have to think about it any mkre

[@sisselrobertsen8405]
