Exploring Sauerland with AndyManCam

[@AndyManCam]

Aaah good times!! I almost remember how it feels to ride a bike… almost!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I still remember how that bike made me walk funny.....good riddance to that!

[@julianperry5141]

@thelikeablerider8800 you even look more comfortable on the tiger, plus you and Andy will be able to hunt out closed roads on your adventure bikes...yeah, maybe a closed road tour could be on the itinerary for this year...haha.

[@mattmutane5502]

@@thelikeablerider8800 Looking forward to having the old Shaun back on a bike - the XR ruined your ability to ride properly after a certain number of hours in that saddle! :( What's the longest you've been on the Tigger so far? (I presume the signs for a long day in the saddle on this bike are positive? :) )

[@P6_7R_Nick]

Your videos do make me want to go out side, get the bike out, fire it up and go for a ride. There's only three problems with that. Firstly, it's wet outside and only 5 degrees, secondly it's 10pm and thirdly, I'm pissed. Great vid Shaun. Love it when you and Andy get together for a ride and make a video. Wish I could come along with you guys.

[@garytaylor7611]

The best motorbike duo on KZbin. Always a great watch. , beautiful rds also 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Cheers Gary👍😎

[@Lovableblobby1]

Great video as usual Shaun. You and Andy together mega. Good chemistry 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I do enjoy a ride out with that ManCam, always a giggle!

[@scottc3]

Good to see you both on a ride out again! 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Roll on summer ey🌞🤘😎

[@NotNowCato1254]

Hold the press! TLR and AMC get screwed by road closures and comedy sat navs 😂

[@thelikeablerider8800]

The drama continues in part two, which is on the upload!🤣🤣

[@DanceMusic1957]

Nice one chaps, just soooo good watching you guys blast through my old stomping ground.Just think guys i did this everyday weather permitting.😄 Regards Glenn👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Riding there every day would be absolutely fine with me!

[@siontwowheels]

Oh how that video makes me looooooooooong for the sun to come out and for the temperature get up a bit!… Long days of quiet twisty roads in the sun are the best! 😂😎

[@thelikeablerider8800]

It's about time this rubbish weather cleared off, absolutely shocking last few months!

[@siontwowheels]

@@thelikeablerider8800 Definitely!! 👍

[@jeffarnie]

Our favourite two English Germans (or is it German Englishmen). Wonderful roads and the Taureg hasn't slowed Andy down at all. Is there a speed limit on your rural roads?

[@thelikeablerider8800]

That bike is very pokey! Speed limit is 100kmhout of the towns.....ish😜

[@BulldogGaz]

Nice one Shaun Sauerland is always cool to ride, yes the old Garmin problem, my last one nearly ended up in a field because it pissed me off so much, I think that's in one of my videos with Conny in Weserbergland 😂 the newest Tom Tom's are good or I also use Calimoto a lot

[@thelikeablerider8800]

It's definitely user error with the Garmins, have figured it out since👍😜

[@steveball2307]

Always a treat seeing you two out together with the usual blend of gorgeous scenery, fantastic roads, satnav fun and roadworks - at leat they mend them over there... Riding over the Möhnesee bridge reminds me of the first "proper" day of tour - counting the days. Definitely going to sort my satnav out this year.....😂

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I don't normally have such catastrophic issues with mine, must be rubbin off🤣

[@stephenspiteri_zunkus]

MIssed you guys riding together. Glad to see you're back!

[@stephenspiteri_zunkus]

...Oh and hearing your comment on the Triumph Street Triple; I've actually bought the RS. Don't do as many miles as you lot but up to now it's been quite comfortable actually. Maybe the Cruise control and heated grips I've added as extras have something to do with it.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Always a good laugh👍😜

[@hartley383]

What a fantastic days riding. Like Germany and been to the Harz a few times. Looks like another few days over there is called for. Good work Shaun and Andy 👍🏻

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Harz is also a top place to ride, just not as big!

[@indiamelia639]

Love it! Andy is a closed road magnet 😂 Must plan a route though Germany one day.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Hope you have better luck!🤣

[@davidstiglitz4341]

Keep them coming... Ooh err... Great vid guys.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

👍🤣 One more to come!

[@TwoFourCharlie007]

That’s a weird thing, I plan the routes for myself and Helen, and when on tour she’s telling me turn left when my satnav says straight on!! Weird Garmin!!!! Thanks for the vid Shaun

[@critch.]

Great video, lovely area. Me and a buddy have identical Zumo XT's bought within 2 days of each other. No matter how we get the same route on the devices be it by sharing wirelessly or through apps, both devices give us different routing logic a lot of fhe time which is bizarre and very frustrating. We have even sat down side by side and gone through all the settings to make sur they mirror but still get these issues. Great riding around Germany arguing whose satnav is correct! I won't replace it with another Garmin, prob use old phone after upgrade with Sygic maps or Calimoto, etc. I feel your pain.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I've since been out and tried something else. If you follow a "Track" rather than a "route" and go off the reservation you just get a directional arrow on screen, so you can self navigate back to your original Track. If you use a "Route" the garmin will recalculate for you, and that seems to be the problem! I also had the Garmin 590, and on that you could set its base setting to "curvey route" so it would ALWAYS calculate to that. On the XT you don't have that option, you can adjust each route with the amount of curvey roads with the "adventurous roads" option, but its base calculation setting is "fastest route" so if you go too far off your planned route, you end up on the bloody motorway or faster A roads!

[@critch.]

That's interesting about route v track as we have done routes. As a device the Zumo XT is great but I preferred the routing logic of my older Tomtom bike nav which failed with water ingress. Sygic is brilliant on my phone so may switch to that on a second phone. The beauty of phones is you can install whatever bike nav app you want and even use Google maps if you have connectivity. But I would need a second phone as don't want to rely on one device for everything. Happy riding. 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Thinking about it, i bet you can probably turn off the "auto recalculation" while using a route! I still rate Garmin highly, can't see me ever getting rid of it.

[@peterowberry4390]

Great vid, adventure bikes for the win!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

We're fully in the club😜

[@CraigShawCraigShaw]

AMC's Aprilia sounds delicious!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

It does indeed, very blarty👍

[@Rafonso90]

Sorry for continue to ask s1000xr stuff but did your XR had the Brembo front calipers? And if so what pads did you run on it? Cheers

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I never keep bikes long enough to have to change them!🤣🤣

[@Rafonso90]

@@thelikeablerider8800 ah ah I think my wife would kill me "Honey my brake pads are done. I need a new bike!!"

[@P6_7R_Nick]

I'm pleased you expressed your discomfort with the gen 2 S1000XR seat eventually as this was a contender for my next bike. Guess I'll stick with my 1290 Super Adventure S for now 😁

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Can't fault it otherwise, such a shame it had to go. Loving the Triumph on the other hand, so all is well👍😜

[@gordon4221]

The adventure style circa 100hp middleweight bikes are the way to go - versatile , capable, fun and of course sensible cost ! eg. tiger 900gt, Honda transalp, Suzuki 800 re etc etc

[@IanTed]

Why I moved ‘down’ from a GSA to a Multi V2S, never regretted it and it’s a far better riding and ownership experience…

[@IanTed]

The Aprilia sounds better but then don’t all Italian bikes, says a Multi V2S rider🤣, good to see you boys out having fun..

[@thelikeablerider8800]

It was especially fruity!

[@scottyuk]

When you hit a road closure why don't you go to the diversion page and just tell it to avoid the next 0.5km or 1km of road? When I've done that it handles the diversion and gets me back on track quickly. It does depend on available roads of course. 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Have figured it out since going on this wild adventure👍😜

[@g.b.agricola7362]

Great to see the partners in crime back together again. As to 15:39, not a bad destination, Holland. We don't have those pesky mountains here, blocking the view all the time!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Not done any motorbike riding in Holland if I'm honest!

[@MouldyPIX]

Nice one lads, good to see the gruesome twosome back on it…🤣🤣🙌

[@thelikeablerider8800]

The roads did get fairly tasty after we'd figured out how to work 2 Satnavs🤣

[@Mobike75]

Finally you two together again! Did u start at Möhnesee?

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Indeed we did👍😜

[@julianperry5141]

I maybe wrong, but Andy seems to throw that Aprilia around quicker than his Honda.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Definitely a very agile capable bike!

[@williamsouthworth5275]

You guys must have had the Euro Pass? All the passing you guys did!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

We needed to push on, otherwise the kitchen would have definitely closed🤣

[@mrcintheuk4641]

Must admit I'm not fussed about overtaking another biker if they haven't taken an opportunity to overtake and I'm not aware of any etiquette in that regard. The most frustrating is when you have to get past a group that goes as fast as the slowest rider and won't overtake as they don't wish to split the group up. Then it's a question of barging your way through the pack. 😬

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Think its find if they show no want to push on, but important not to bully anyone into doing something they're not comfortable with, we all have to ride our our ride👍😜

[@xjr13john]

How old is this vid? 😂😂😂😂

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Think Moses is younger!
