How to get started traveling in Europe - your first motorcycle adventure!

[@icklepob88]

Really like the idea of pre-routing the spare clutch cable in position, and ready to use in 5 minutes. Such a simple idea

[@NomadSweden]

Cheers!

[@ujjc001]

Agree, I was like, I should at least carry a spare, and just ordered one, will pre-route it too!

[@tiagocarneiro943]

very clever

[@SideQuestStijn]

After 20 years and >200.000km on a motorcycle, this is _exactly_ how I travel. Have a rough idea, and just enjoy doing whatever you feel like doing. Or do nothing at all!

[@NomadSweden]

Awesome 👏🏻 thanks

[@user-sj2nr2jh1u]

Went solo from Gibraltar to Magadan in Russia on a KTM 690 Rally and agree with everything you say 🙂 Only thing I would add is to have online backup / photo / paper copy of all your docs, someone to send you stuff to wherever you are, an emergency plan / device / contact even in remote european areas if you travel alone, water filter, medical kit, strong travel insurance and a secondary navigation device. And go light !!! And one final advice. Go now... dont wait. You or your bike or the circumstance will never be 100% perfect. Just go !!!! You will return as a changed (wo)man. Ride safe

[@NomadSweden]

Great input! And as you say, just go!

I traveled Europe etc for 3 1/2 months from OZ. Bought a bike in the UK, took off each day and at 2pm would look for accommodation within 150km. It was great not being locked in to something at the start of each day, adding unnecessary stress 🍻

How is their customer support of Revoluut? I have Wise but I've heard from people this company can block your account out of nowhere like PayPall and there is pretty much zero support.

We just shipped our bikes from USA to Germany. We pick them up on May 5th. We don’t really have any real plans. But we do want to mostly explore Eastern Europe. Ride BMW 800’s. Not looking for hard off-road routes but back country dirt. My husband and I are very excited and plan to ride for about 4 to 5 months. Watching your videos before we arrive.

Fantastic Video ! I agree with 99% of your summary and suggestions, but i also make sure i have purchased good quality travel/health insurance, cost very little for a year of global travel, maybe £100, I recommend this, and always share details with my travel companion.

[@NomadSweden]

Thank you! Great that you add info 👍🏻

[@jimtitt3571]

That depends on where you come from, what your normal insurance covers and most important where you are travelling to. In addition what level of care and treatment you expect. €100 a year insurance isn't going to help if you need medivac and a brain surgeon in a lot of countries even inside the EU.

[@samhill3496]

On a motorcycle you always have variables in weather, crowds, breakdowns, road closures. Hell you might get tired and need to rest. Don't get frazzled out. Be nice, it's best way to travel. Good vid Robert.

[@NomadSweden]

Thanks 👍🏻

[@KevinMaschke1]

Oje Thing I'd add is to find like-minded people to travel with. It's nice to travel alone sometimes, but I did UK > Spain and back, and the NC500, and at times missed having some company. Yeah you can meet people, but having a friend there is always nice.

[@NomadSweden]

Yeah I am blessed with a great group of old friends to ride with

[@Avensur]

Indeed exciting traveling on new countries. There is a lot of planning and logistics and of course financial steps. First thing and most important,,, the bike prep and the second most,,,in my case, shipping and entry. And that is where the adventure begins. Stay safe and enjoy!😊

[@enduromotorradtouren]

An open mind is most important, as you said, Robert. Someone gave my his piece of advice. After the first draft od your plan - half the miles - double the time. Travelling in Europe is easy and so rewarding, because there are so many cultural (and scenic) differences within a short distance. And always people around to help you. Have a great season, Günter/Nürnberg

[@davidmatthews3093]

Your quote falls apart for all but first time travellers because the rest of us plan based upon our personal experience.

[@thetubelesschannel]

Now its no more excuses :-) Very nice video with the most important to remember. I love loose plans as well if you have a wide timeframe and/or are not too ambitious what to visit. If the time is more limited and there are some certain places to visit, you will have to make a stricter plan. But loose is a goal. Thanks a lot for your tip of the revolut card. I will look into that. To withdrawel some money to use in the non urban areas is also wise. I had to do that for the backroads of Portugal. To use in the small cafes around. And even some petrol stations. I was surprised by that. Have a nice riding season, Europe is calling 🙂

Travelling in Europe is definitely not a chore, I shipped my DR 650 from Australia to the UK in 2023 and spent a month in the UK the a month heading for Romania through France and Switzerland, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, then Romania and back to Croatia where I left my bike in storage. I will be back in May 2024 to head the the IOM with no plan so far as which way to go, I have 3 weeks to get from Zagreb to the UK, no planned route, so via France along the Med and up through the guts or via Germany up to Norway and back down is the part I haven’t decided yet. My main way of travel is to avoid toll ways and stick to back roads, allow plenty time for a change of destination, mainly due to weather, rainy days are just not fun, especially when camping. If you live in Europe there is nothing to stop you from travelling, living in Australia is great, lots of riding to be had and sights to see but 90% of the country is desert and I am not a big fan . 😂😂😂😂 Definitely don’t over plan a trip just go with the flow.

[@NomadSweden]

Thanks for sharing 😊

[@SoulpowerMSRS]

I'm curious why you sent your bike over there rather than get one locally. Is it hard to buy and register one there, not being a citizen? Are bikes more expensive? Maybe yours is special to you?

[@whitedrguy6503]

@@SoulpowerMSRS My DR is my baby, it was used as a courier bike for 6 years and has done a few trips in Australia so has been set up to suit me, no to mention it has done 300,000 Klms, so to say that is special would be an understatement, it is a bike I will never sell so to add touring around Europe is just another reason to keep it. I would have preferred to have taken my 2005 DR 650 which has 500,000 klms but it is not registered, it is another bike that will never be sold, sadly registration costs in Australia are expensive so having 3 bikes and a car is around $2800 a year. My DR is financially worth nothing, it is just has sentimental value, every time it is ridden it is special and I appreciate what the bike has been through, I rode it 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year and it never let me down.

[@auscurrymaster]

What does it cost to ship a bike from Aus' to Europe? I looked at shipping from Aus to NZ and even that was not even close to cost effective (but also acknowledging your preference to be ridi g your own bike)

Great presentation! Always enjoy your videos. Seems we agree on most of the traveling topics you've covered. Only, I have a tendency to plan out everything: the routes, hotels, resting days, POI's, etc. (I'm a bit of a nerd, that way). I'm coming to Sweden this summer (do a little bit of the TET) and you've inspired me to take the more loose 75/25 system you suggested. I always take an extra day every 3 or 4 days for resting, laundry, bike maintenance and exploring the country I'm visiting but your approach leaves even more room for (unplanned) adventure. Although, as I'm traveling alone, I'd rather have as little problems on the way as possible. 😄

hey - great video - thanks for making it. Which apps do you recommend for adventure (non-motorway) routes please? Tak!

[@NomadSweden]

Hi! I use DMD2 mostly for offroad. On top of that i sometimes use stegra.io. Both are great for offroading.

Hi Robert - Thank you! Great summary of all you need to do (and not do) for an adventure. Next year, I'll be travelling alone through Europe for the first time on a 700 Transalp for around 4 weeks. I don't intend to camp but will stay in small B&B's / hotels etc (not expensive ones) along the way - how much do you suggest I budget for accommodation / food / fuel? Many thanks again - Steve

Awesome! I like to go east where ot’s also cheap with food and accomodation. If you plan for €100 a day you are well covered. Solo perhaps a little more since we share rooms etc
