Mile Munching to Marrakesh | Huge Moroccan Breakfasts and an Oil Change

[@user-gn6cn8wd8i]

I must say, the KZbin game these days is very competitive. Lot’s of people with the same kind of channels. Travelling, van life, off grid living etc. Click bait until the horizon to attract views. But Freddie, the attitude, refreshing, stylish but humble. Honest when it comes to prices, the residence, food, the overall experience. It’s like watching a documentary about travels. Definitely deserving more view’s for the effort and filming! Even if it’s not about motorcycles. I definitely see him working for a television channel travelling the world and making nice documentaries 😊. (Watching from the 🇳🇱)

[@johnlenart597]

Living in the States, places like this is only seen in wonderful travel videos. The old world charm, food vendors, simple life styles, and modest prices are never seen here. Thanks for taking me to a place I could only dream about seeing. Even the dogs and cats seem to be in paradise. A treat to be part of your travels. 👍👍

Thank you John, delighted you’re enjoying them📹🇺🇸

Nothing stopping you visiting either. Yes it’s further to travel but perfectly possible. 👍🏽

[@Argo-F-Ur-Sef]

@@mattWallJsyI went in 1990 and need to get back. I did an overseas study summer in France. During a break, we took a train, then ferry, and then busses in Morocco. All with just a book. Quite the adventure. Unfortunately my travel partner got sick and we had to come back early. It looks like Tangier has changed a lot in those years but the beach area look surprisingly familiar.

Im from Tangier, Morocco , i live in America and i totally agree with you.

[@teneretraveller8980]

Many years ago as a teenager i worked in a petrol station. Serving fuel to save for my firstly motorbike. The shop on the side sold 3 different premium oul brands Every service item you could want for most makes of car. Waxes polishes abd leathers fir cleaning your own car. No food. No cigarettes No alcohol. And in addition to serving petrol we checked tyres, checjed oil and mixed 2 stroke premix for motorcycles. This wasn't unusual. What you see in morocco is an example of how lazy we have become abd how bad uk service stations are. Very sad Enjoy your trip. It's a great country. 👍

[@fullthrottle2008]

“Progress” 😐

[@FreddieDobbs]

Very interesting insight and I agree- it’s a huge shame

[@peakrider4886]

Great comment. You’re so right, as I was reading I was transported back to when I first got on to 2 and 4 wheels and the shelf and rack space at a petrol station was filled with oil, car wash cleaner, sponges, shammy leathers, buckets, oils, car fresheners, etc. Now they are either an extension to the adjoining supermarket, or are 24 hour off-licences. I suppose with a great many cars that are now company cars, or leases and PCPs, where the driver isn’t the owner and it won’t ever be their car, the pride in ownership has also disappeared along with all the accessories needed to clean and look after your vehicle.

[@mrcintheuk4641]

Back in 1973 I also worked in a petrol station, Brown's Garage in Willesden, while at college. Yes, they supplied all those services but in the end when the Corporations introduced self service to maximise their return the independents couldn't afford the staff wages.

Do you have to take it to the dealer? We have oil change places here in the US all over…there’s one about 10 minutes from my home, I’m in and out in less than 30 minutes most times.

[@vespaveloce1924]

@ Not necessarily to a dealer, but to a garage and it’s usually done as part of a service. We have crazy long oil change intervals in Europe. Some as much as 20,000 miles, however it really should be changed much more frequently

It's funny how our perspective changes when we go abroad. If you had this in the UK - people blocking pathways and selling whatever they can, dogs fighting in the streets, people parking at random wherever they liked, takes ages to drive a short distance with the congestion, smoking everywhere, no concern for safety driving or on bikes, etc, most British people would be complaining - 'visual feast' or chaos? Death tolls on the roads are 5x that in the UK, see 09:09!

Welcome to my country. you're most welcome. I noticed that you review motorcycles, and I really appreciate your insights. Could you please share your thoughts on the Suzuki V-Strom 250? I'm considering it and would love to hear your opinion. or meteor 350 who best. Thank you

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thank you so much- I’m delighted to be here🇲🇦 I’ve unfortunately never tried the 250 V-Strom, but the 800 V-Stom is very good and all V-Stoms will be incredibly tough bikes💪🏼 I have ridden the Meteor 350 quite a bit and it’s an excellent bike that I have done a review on (it’s under my “Motorcycle Reviews” playlist). I very highly recommend the Meteor- which also shares many parts with my favourite bike of all time (the Royal Enfield Classic 350). The Enfields are simple, tough, reliable bikes that can take plenty of punishment and look great👌🏻

If those two choices I would go for the V Strom. Way more reliable and more comfortable and versatile compared to the Meteor (in my opinion).

[@markfenlon7049]

Greetings Freddie, Monica, glad your time in Morocco is going well. Jeep's 28MPG (UK), not bad I guess. I run an ancient (1993 Gen.2) Mitsubishi L200 crew cab 4x4 2.5D pick-up, farm use mainly. It's very slow, but steady on road driving gives me 35 to 40MPG (UK). Its extremely basic, keeps on trucking (along with my XL1000 Varadero) 🌍

[@FreddieDobbs]

I love these old L200s- exactly the kind of vehicles that last forever. The same as the Varadero- built to last💪🏼💪🏼

It’s a Shell so they probably had it. Shells are pretty much by the book the world around. It’s partly the reason they cost way more than going to a local business to get the same work done.

[@RobertMackenzie-yn8ig]

I’m a mechani and the engine Freddie has is not that common , we find with some uncommon cars we have to order oil filters in advance for some models , as some motor parts stockist don’t keep them and are for order only So I m either surprised or impressed they had the right oil filter actually on the premises. I always suggest to people if you are going on a huge mileage road trip , take a few spares including oil filters with you

[@laz1go286]

​​@@RobertMackenzie-yn8igI'm not sure if they actually changed the oil filter or not. I also doubt they had the right part. However one filter can handle two oil changes. In some cases that isn't a big deal. Especially if you're far from Europe and don't have many options... Once he is back in England he needs to do a proper service on it.

[@FreddieDobbs]

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but he was underneath the car and said he had a filter when I asked him. But he seemed extremely thorough, even though I can’t 100% guarantee he changed the filter

Oof, 28 mpg, that’s either a lot of petrol stops or a very big tank! We used to have a W reg (2000) Jeep Cherokee with a 4 litre straight six petrol. I think the mpg was probably a little worse than yours, but it’s saving grace was that it had an LPG conversion, so although it still only did 20ish mpg, the fuel was half the price of unleaded.

[@dbharrold]

Pretty sure big chains in the uk do oil changes like that. National, Halfords etc. They are in France too. Vidange (pronounced ver-donge) is the french word for an oil change. Useful when you are in France

Nice video Freddie. If you want to add some scenic footage on your way to Merzouga i advice you to take a few stops in the atlas mountains between Marrakech and Ouarzazate. There is a cafe/bar at the Auberge in Toufliht where you can get a cold beer and enjoy a scenic view. Further up the atlas mountain you can stop for a lunch at Assanfou near the mountain summit. If you really want to see some awesome stuff you should check the movie location of the petrol station from the movie The hills have eyes. It is on your way to Ouarzazate. Takes a small deviation of 20 minutes but definitely worth the drive. Feels like you’re somewhere in New Mexico. Awesome stuff
