Tip #4: Exercise. Most older drivers are simply not in great physical shape and it makes riding long kilometers/miles much harder. Go to the gym...lift weights...start attending yoga classes...run if you are able.

Yep, an early start with a full tank is really good. Went how from a trip in Sweden. Started 5am and 750km and a ferry later, I was home at 3pm. And not even tired! Another great thing about an early start is the beauty. See the birth of a new day, sunrise, temp. rise, fog over the lakes...yep, that's beautiful!

I'd add get a quiet helmet and earplugs if you don't have them yet. It's not only about hearing protection, but loud noise for extended periods of time is exhausting, and after an entire day of riding you will definitely notice the difference.

Another lifetime ago I spent four years patrolling the African bush, mostly with a bunch of other similarly motivated guys. I trained myself to operate under extreme sleep deprivation - 18-30 hours non stop. Sometimes, day or night, I sat under a tree and just lost 10 minutes in a sort of semi unconsciousness. 20 was a luxury. I could go for days like that. I thrived in that environment. But back at base, most of the guys would drink tons of South African Castle beer and get blitzed. I did that too, but it always knocked the edge off my game next time we went out. It’s much harder to walk through thick bush with gear and a weapon, scanning, start stop, start stop, looking for spoor, listening, anticipating a contract any second, 24/7, than riding a bike, even off road. And you can’t fall asleep like in a car, except maybe with earplugs and heated clothing.

great points. on my two month trip last year, I started with that approach but after two weeks I found myself getting up early, having a coffee as I packed up, riding for a few hours until I came to somewhere interesting, then having a really good look around, a good lunch, a long break, then back on the road to 7pm or so where I would have an evening meal, often just a simple one bought from a supermarket, then ride on close to sunset if it was open terrain, (to dangerous in wooded terrain with deer strike). I was frequently still setting up camp as the sun went down. When I got further south and the temperatures rose, I stayed in air-conditioned motels, I would leave them at first light and was at the next motel by 3pm because the heat was unbearable. Though one day in Arizona I did over 800km, in temperatures over 40 degrees it almost killed me,

Very good points. My key is alawys to try and take a short brake EVERY 100km even in the beginning of the day because it will help you later in the ride a LOT. If you do 300km without brake you will start to feel the last 200km much more even if you start taking brakes after that. It doesn't need to be a 100 as we are all different. Decide on a number and stick to that number even if you don't feel like stopping. Take 5 minutes off the bike and it's gonna add up during the day to make you feel more refreshed and therefore also make the ride more safe. Safe rides!

An early start gives one a lot of latitude during the day. I like to have my distance down by 2pm at the latest. If I need to go farther i have time to take a break and relax. Have the bike ready to roll first light. Burn a tank of fuel or two before breakfast or lunch. Steady rolling man. Set a comfortable pace and stay on it. Carry a little snack food and drink. Less time putting on gear and off. Tomorrow is another day. Be rested and ready for it. Plan your trip as to traffic road conditions especially when you are fresh. Rest, no caffine.

This is why I like to travel solo, and not because of the friends but because I want to establish and stay in my route. All I want is wake up early in the morning, pack my stuff, and set my compass to the place no man has gone before and zip a nice cup of coffee ☕ and some sweets by a breathtaking secret place.

I'd say route choice can also have a notable impact too, with smaller road being slower bigger roads being faster for me, but just something to factor in. Personally I'd plan a day by hours of riding rather than distance, but there are times where you have to flip that to be able to get somewhere for a certain date for example.

My Tenere xt660 z from 2010 has been with me on my travels ever since (mostly Scandinavia with a good proportion of gravel or dirt roads). Without problems - and if there were any, the cause was the driver. My experience: take your time. In particular, avoid German autobahns (I come from the country (city of Cologne). In 2 days you can easily be in Travemünde and cross over to Sweden. After that it's only 80-110 km anyway - unless you risk a drastic fine. So: relax and enjoy the adventure!

There are definitely advantages to start normally (9-10AM) and ride till night and even some of it (like 9-10PM). First is that if you are wild camping you basically never have an issue as nobody sees you and you can be camping in really "dangerous" but cool places (where police can catch you and fine you, very close to the road but with crazy view etc.). Obviously this applies only to some countries as in many wild camping is legal and permitted. Also the temperature is better than starting at early morning when it's cold. And the warmness stays till night (depends as well obviously).

My good friend is slow starter. In our first longer motorcycle trip we had nice camping place and fun evening. Next morning I woke up about 8-9, I'm not a morning person. But my friend was sooo slow with his morning routines and playing all the stuff he took with him, making breakfast, packing his bike etc. I was too polite and didn't hurry him. It was like 13.00 when we finally started our engines. I was quite pissed at that point. Whole riding day was ruined. I think he noticed that I was not happy, as he asked at the next camping site feedback how's he doing. I said that well maybe you could do your routines faster in the mornings. After that we didn't have any problems. He was even ready earlier than me in couple mornings 😅

I am wondering how you avoid cramps in your hands covering the distances that you do. Mostly when I change gloves or for any other reasons that I still don't comprehend I get cramps. Also, I am so fascinated by your concept of beginning the drive early in the morning. However, I just don't seem to be able to stop life so early in the evening for fear of missing out on all of the delight that the night may offer. Think of the quiet and darkness, the stars, the wildlife that becomes alive as the sun sets. I just feel that I throw away life's richness. At the same time, I understand the practical gain of leaving early. Still, these two concept aren't compatible. I am still looking for the deciding argument. Thank you for your efforts to share your experiences. Greatly appreciated.

Great video. I have notice the speed difference very much. Riding for about 7h in Germany where the roads are 100km/h was much, much more tiring for me than 8h in other countries with limits of about 80-90km/h. Having regular breaks is so important as well. Just have a break every hour. If your ass starts hurting, you are too late and will keep it the rest of the day, it will only get worse. The 500km limit seems very fair, and I do agree its about the limit of what you should be doing (except perhaps if you ride a big gold wing on those long boring roads in the US). I do disagree on the short brake remark though. Next holiday of mine I want to actively do longer and more breaks! After all, isn't a holiday or trip about experiencing things? It shouldn't be about just the goal, but the journey itself. And after looking back on my last holiday, I think I should have stopped more, done more detours, and get off the bike more to chill out and relax. Purposefully get out of that riding mode, so to say. Although I suppose its a different thing in some regions of the world, where there's not much change in scenery for the whole day.

Interesting movie. For me long rides depend on allot of factors. In Australia I can be riding distances on reasonably good roads at speed. My average might be 110k. So my Indian which is a really big motorcycle has both excellent polar stability and very good wind and weather protection. My gear stays dryer and warmer. In winter when temperatures can be minus 5 degrees celcius the wind chill at 100k really matters!. So heated grips good gear and protection matter. The right motorcycle will make a huge difference. Sitting on an exposed 300cc Honda thats reving its nuts off isnt my idea of fun. And I have been there and done that too.

Pavlin, if I were to ride from the UK to Zimen (Karnobat), how LATE in the year could I leave it BEFORE the really rotten weather moves in across that region?

One unrelated question to this video. Is there a particular reason you keep your rear mirrors like rabbits ears (pointing up). Is it to get the better visibility going uphill/downhill?

Here in Australia Kangaroos can be a problem in early morning, just need to keep your eyes open.

For me I don't get tired. I take short 5 to 10 minute breaks when re-fueling. But, if i stop 30 minutes or eat something then I get tired. Also i find traveling alone was less exhausting.

It is easy. Simply be in reasonable shape and not an overweight body. Works for me for 40+ yerars of all types of days and weeks long rides. LOL. I never start at 4 or 6:00 am.. Also avoid the major highways and cities (boring and less safe driving). I love exploring new sites in the morning and afternoon during 10 - 14 hour riding days.

My trips are max. 350km daily. This is about 7 hours in the saddle(I don’t drive fast either)and is enough to me. Otherwise after a week ,you’re sick and tired of your motorcycle .
