E67: Motorcycle Tour of Lisbon with a subscriber 🏍🇵🇹 PART 1/2

[@Johnny-701]

I love to be able to smell the surroundings when riding a motorcycle.

Many places in Europe use volcanic ash in their roads. It is this ash that holds the oils in the tar when it rains the oil floats to the top of the road surface. And it doesn’t wash away so the road stays slick until it dries. This is true in Italy and Japan. I have lived in both countries and rode motorcycles in both countries.

Maybe this explains the rainy ice rinks I had to ride on one day in the south of France. Built up area. I was shitting myself.

Beautiful, scenic ride! I clearly heard you use the English word "antiquated"! Which proves you're really an American posing as a Norwegian 😀😀. At 13:07 when you first arrived at Cabo De Roca and I saw all the tourists/people. I imagined Johnathan was seeing roaches 🤣😂😎!! Stay warm and safe!

[@RidetheBean]

😂 blame Eminem 😅 I learned English through his lyrics. We luckily avoided the biggest tour groups 😅

[@motovlogjoni]

Most of portuguese officers that i know re riders as well. Always a nice experience to get a coffee from them :) Hope you re enjoying my country despite of the weather, im from Portugal but i never rode a bike there.. moved to Brasil and Thailand before get my drive license. Have a safe trip, cheers

[@RidetheBean]

Thats cool.I just have so many bad experiences with police in so many countries that at this point they freak me out. I'm loving Portugal! You need to come back here and go for a ride then 😝

[@teneretraveller8980]

The most excellent motorcycle and coffee community coming together again. Love it. Pedro top chap. And law enforcement types buying coffee ☕️ too, excellent. Just regular guys wearing blue uniform. Norwegian weather, no? English too. Should feel natural to us northerners.. All weather has it's charms, and no sun shines like the sun after the rain. Good one 👍. Happy travels 👍

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah can't ask for anything more 😛 Love meeting people like this! Yeah it surprised me, but finally a positive interaction with police 😅 I like this weather, apart from getting wet 😅 It is really fresh and beautiful.

[@vikingmcklub7393]

Portugal looks like a great place to live ! Thanks for sharing these new places with us.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah I think it is. Depends on where of course…

[@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr]

That’s a great ride despite the rain. The shoreline is beautiful. That must be a wild place to be during a storm! Nice of the officers to buy you a coffee. Ride safe Kenneth…….

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah I love days like this. As long as it doesn’t rain the whole day 😅And the fog made it very beautiful 😛

[@burenvanpaul]

Hi guys. Nice footage of the coast of Portugal. Sintra is a very beatifull town. We have been there a few years ago. The smell of forrest even even you riding in the fog of rain is indeed very pleasant. Thanks and keep the black stuff down.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah it is a beautiful place! So happy Pedro showed us around 😛

[@charliem5332]

The Portuguese people that I have met are all very friendly. A very hospitable nation.

[@charliem5332]

I wondered the same about the cobbles. Asthetic was the only reason I could think of too.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah same. Everyone I’ve meet are great people. And yeah the cobble stones I don’t get 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@marionstravels6641]

That was a beautiful eerie ride in the fog, very refreshing to watch now during the heatwave 😁 nice to see the coastline of Portugal.

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah I love riding in that type of weather. Fog, but no rain. Smells so good!

[@brucegerken1063]

Great video thank you. Very well done thanks again cheers to ya.

[@RidetheBean]

Thanks 😛 glad you liked it 🙂

[@matheusschunke]

This foggy weather is very common in my hometown here in Brazil, we call it "neblina". Hope you come travel here anytime 😉👊

[@RidetheBean]

[@ianferrier235]

[@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr]

Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints.

[@blackswanodysseys]

So you really hate police. How would you feel if someone said they really hate Norwegians?

[@RidetheBean]

🤷🏼‍♂️ I’ve met people who do… it’s an opinion… probably formed by certain experiences. I don’t hate all police. But ai have Ahmad so many negative interactions with police that they freak me out and make me jump every time I see a uniform.

[@bmwrider1931]

He’s just speaking from his experience just take it with a grain of salt and understand what he’s saying. It not that he hates them as a human. He hates them from his experience. Hard to explain but really he doesn’t hate the as a human.

[@triskelworkshop2855]

So sad to hear you have this enormous anxiety about meeting police officers on duty, even when they are riding motorcycles and having a coffee with you. There realy should be no reason for that. Know, there 's always a large % of them spending their free days on bikes aswell. I can understand this anxiety in some countries outside the EU, but for the most part..... Being a police officer myself (in Belgium), motorcycling around Europe on hollidays, and as a patreon of your channel, I just could not resist to reply & disagree on this one. But & so ...... Whenever you deside to go back north, pass through Belgium. I would be so glad to have you as a guest and show you a bit of my little country on 2 wheels (maybe @ in some offroad TET ). Feel free to PM me, you are most welcome. Stephan (ps: this is actualy an invitation 😇)

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah I get it. I grew up in a police family so it’s not like I just hate police for no reason. But I have had too many interactions with police that were extremely negative for no reason. Not just in Norway, but in many countries. I don’t know why, but I’ve been profiled countless times and treated like a bag of dirt without any good reason other than a show of force and power so many times that now I freak out every time I see a uniform. Because 7/10 interactions i’ve had with police have been terrible. Not saying all police are abusive, but the likelihood of the one interacting with me is, is high. My dad is also a policeman so I kind of grew up I’m with police around me. I’ve seen good police too. But the majority I’ve met are not good. I’m only speaking from my own experiences, so I get if you disagree with me 🙂 We all form our opinions and views based on our own experiences. Not sure when I’ll be coming through Belgium again, but if I do I’d love to have a coffee with you 😛

[@triskelworkshop2855]

@@RidetheBean let s have that coffee any time soon, wether in Belgium or in scandinavia

[@RidetheBean]

Yeah I'd love that! If we somehow cross paths here or there 😛

[@3goldfinger]

You just insulted me, naughty boy.

[@RidetheBean]

hehe not sure how, but sorry... 😅🤷‍♂️ Never mean to offend. But like Ricky Gervais says; Offence is taken, not given 😝

[@RidetheBean]

@@3goldfinger 😅 I see… well… I didn’t say anything untrue 😂 you guys do sound like you’ve choked on a potato 😅 I’m sure it’s not the first time you hear it? 🙈

[@mihaipopescu5342]

A bit boring...

[@RidetheBean]

Sorry you felt that. Hope you like the next one better 😛
