Yes, I must say I came to tell you too about taking a boat.. and also about setting the tent. We love outdoors and there is plenty of space for everyone to come do it in here, but if you are in a camping spot, setting your tent right in middle of it, in front of fireplace and a table, makes it very hard for some late traveller to come and use it. Probably they would just carry on, because for most, we dont want to trouble othet hikers/travellers. And it is quite common to find unlocked stuff in the countryside, because people still trust that their things are not taken by others. Its fun to watch but unpolite thing to do without a permission and what if something would of happened. I once had to row to other side of a lake when two tourists had taken a rowing boat but were afraid to row it back where they had taken it.. So as you might see, quite many of us here, we react to rhings like this. We are able to roam rather freely in the nature, but we do it with respect of other peoples property, because most of the time, the forests, roads ect are private and not owned by goverment, its the law that allows us to do it.

[@neohasht775]

Told them the same but they will just delete your messages if you if you don't agree with them. Not ok. Just unsubscribed.

[@McSlobo]

This video is actually proof of a crime...

[@robbinbergman1841]

When doing the dishes pour it out on the grund and let it filter back in to the lake. i think it´is the most decent way

[@gozamite]

I hope you will remember in the future... It doesn't have to be even that bad situation but I think it's always a good idea to remove all bags from the bike. It's so much easier to move the bike around and lift up without the heavy luggage.

[@terjelangsrud7992]

The boat was most probably not locked up because most people in these areas has a general respect for ownership, so locks are not really needed. If you saw a car unlocked in a parking lot, would you just go in and sit in it? This is the exact same thing, just with different surroundings...

[@paanikki]

The Nordic "everyman's right" concept and the culture around it is difficult for many foreigners. Even though you don't see many PRIVATE PROPERTY signs, and property is not surrounded by barbed wire fences and locked gates and guarded by armed guards, the property is still owned by someone. Some people say it is better to ask forgiveness afterwards than ask for permission before. But it is the opposite. I would be more than happy to borrow a rowing boat to a lovely couple like you. Personally I never lock the door of our lakeside sauna. I even keep the stove loaded with dry firewood and kindling and leave a box of matches where anyone can Find them. If someone gets in trouble on the lake and is in danger of hypothermia, they don't have to break the door to seek shelter and warmth. But I still don't like the idea of other people using our property without permission just for fun. I wish good luck for your future journeys !

[@Robert_Hall90]

I’ve been really enjoying this series…. One thing I will say is Marth just take a deep breath in and times it’s never quite as bad as you think it is…. Off road bikes are pretty much meant to be dropped! You’re not the first and won’t be the last it will just make you a better rider as a whole….. just keep your cool 99% of the time everything will be fine! Make peace with the fact the bike will have some war wounds we’ve all done it lol

[@user-wk8so9xr6s]

The row boat: "Have you done this before?"😂 - I'd say probably not.🤣

[@user-wk8so9xr6s]

Don't get me wrong. I love you guys. But it is funnyyy to see how things, which are just everyday for Finns look like from a foreign perspective. Nobody writes instructions about chopping wood or rowboats, because you (sillily) assume that everyone was already taught by their grandad.😁

[@DMDyoutube123]

Can’t believe the fella on the log lorry didn’t get down to help !

[@andrewnorris5415]

Unless they edited it out? Maybe he asked?

[@MetallaCaine]

A bit of advice on big adventures. When stuff goes wrong, just stop and take a deep breath. Don't dwell on whos "fault" it is as you are both going to make mistakes and learn. Even if it takes a while to get the bike and yourself out of trouble, you will be able to do it one way or another. Enjoy the good the bad and the ugly of the trip. Have fun guys!!

[@DaveHines1]

One minute in a serious situation , the next laughing about in a boat 😃🍻

[@TheJammyGits]

The highs and lows of a motorcycle adventure 😅keeps you on your toes😂

[@Mazwell96]

The little shit parts of a big trip make the good parts so much better.

[@ArcticSteam]

The rule is: don't take somebody elses boat. Simple, yes?

[@DragonSniper43]

the best thing to come out of that was your were not injured. the drone shot while in the boat amazing

[@TheJammyGits]

Thank you❤️

[@user-uz5ox8kh3h]

You folks will have great memories at the end of you journey and will have learned so much on how to do more trips.

[@Cmotobaby]

Just remember guys when your down there’s no rush to get back up - assess the situation and think of a plan

[@kaizen2049]

The thumbnail gave me a heartattack ! Hope you guys are alright ❤

[@HeyMichaelLeo]

It's called an Adventure for a reason.

[@MNmostly]

Glad you are OK Martha! It seemed like a terrible event but may end up being one of your most memorable days of the trip. You both bounced back well.

[@TheJammyGits]

So true! Always got to take the rough with the smooth, thank you!

[@user-mu9ge7pl7p]

Well done Marth for getting back on bike and carrying on great adventure guys loved the rowing Marth stick to the bike 😂stay safe both keep the adventures coming x

[@TheJammyGits]

Thank you😃

[@grantlingley1385]

When you find yourself in somewhat sketchy moments like a really tight space re between you and the ditch, make it easy on your self and just walk the bike through. Ya will stay upright and even if you drop it, you will be in one piece. Broken mirrors are no biggie and just gives you an excuse to go shopping! LOL

[@JulianOLeary-nv5nc]

I'm glad you are alright Martha, if Mitch is more experienced on the CRF just ask him to help if you have any doubts. I too have a CRF rally, I'm 6ft2 and use mine off-road 99percent of the time...and we all fall off. Don't let it dent your confidence just look out for yourself try and keep clear of bike if going down. I think your riding is fantastic for someone who has recently passed their bike test!!!..... loving your channel, keep safe and love to you both 👍👍👍👍

[@TheJammyGits]

Thank you! ☺️

[@thenorseman2804]

Of course there are rules, both in Finland, Sweden and Norway. When you feel you are doing something wrong, you probably are. Taking someone else's boat without permission is not allowed, it is one of the rules.

[@Theorangeman.]

Funny tho wasnt it ahahaha

[@TheJammyGits]

Hi, i appreciate what you are saying. Martha didn't word that the best. We obviously know there are rules, she more meant that the country is very relaxed which is what we love. The boat was in a popular hiking area (popular by Finnish standards) so I believe if the boat shouldnt have been used it would have been locked up. Nevertheless it created an unforgettable memory for us and we did no harm so therefore I would do it all over again 😁

[@SuHwak]

You're one of those that need rules for every second and square cm to guide you along in life? Loosen up and live a little before those rules squeeze all the life out of you.

[@AlexKall]

​@@SuHwak people should follow the laws, there's a reason we have them. And if you're on the other side of someone breaking laws, when it affects you, it's not fun.

[@user-pg1ur7zd3f]

People used to be able to leave doors unlocked and things out without worry of others taking. These days if it's not locked up some entitled idiot thinks it's OK to use it!

[@veiledallegory]

Glad you decided to take some of our advice and slow down. It’s not a race. Who cares what time you leave?

[@judithholland9946]

Please be careful guys ... Enjoy your adventure x

[@matty741]

Loving these videos, glad you didn't hurt yourself during that fall. Keep going because this looks like the best adventure ever.

[@TheJammyGits]

Thanks! Will do!

[@davidshaw5426]

Where was the lorry driver to help you get your bike out. At least nobody was hurt that is the main thing. Keep smiling

[@lisaholloway888]

You need to take all your luggage off to move the bike easier.

[@paulhumphrey3402]

Great videos take care with a tent near a fire embers can easily end up burning holes in tents

[@wanderinghonda7963]

Hi guys, now Martha’s mirror makes a lot of sense when we were chatting on the road. I’m impressed it was still on the bike Mitch fantastic editing, I’m impressed you are getting two videos a week out! Steffs obviously getting sneak preview of my series and between my vids and yours she’s determined to head up north with me next year 😂

[@richiebainbridge2608]

That episode was bloody fantastic, funny and shockingly dangerous. Your boat adventure was crackin. 👍👍👍

[@TheJammyGits]

Nice one! 🤙

[@robertsaville]

How are you two still alive 😂😂. What a brilliant episode and loved the boat part 🤣

[@arthurkettle3010]

What an adventure this is......can't wait for the next episode 👌👊

[@miclinda256]

Martha! Mitch i’m at nordkapp on tuesday so if you are faster , i buy you a coffee Anyway , have a nice and safe trip😃

[@1150gs1]

You two are great fun.Making a 69 year old very happy.

[@teemus807]

The tripod drops in the video at 12:46 just before you push the bike out of the ditch. Have a great trip.

[@cliffordmillington8021]

Glad to see you are okay, Martha. I can’t understand why that bloke didn’t help you with the lorry.❤👍

[@ashleypearce3507]

Your both very brave stay strong

[@greengoblindave]

Another great video guys. Smiles all the way. Well apart from the spill Martha. Glad you’re alright… You’re both doing really well. Keep it up. Fantastic ❤️

[@TheJammyGits]

Thanks so much!

[@thenorseman2804]

don't set up the tent that way guys, this is what we call the German way.

[@woodly1069]

Lovin y'all!

[@warrenr4]

I think some of the viewers should lighten up. Seeing an unlocked boat next to a public camping area it’s not unreasonable for a tourist to assume it’s for public use. I don’t think these guys would intentionally do anything illegal and in the end the boat was returned and no harm was done. Knowing the Finns and how kind hearted they are I’m very sure the owner would have been perfectly fine with the situation.

[@jennyellis2062]

Hey Mitch and Martha, I live in a town called Mount gambier in south Australia, Australia and we have pine trees all over the south east which have roads through all the trees, that's over 6 hours of driving or more

[@paulhorsley4880]

Well done you two, I’m surprised the blokes on the timber truck didn’t give you a hand to get the bike back up thou

[@tmpfi999]

The hinges in the goat must be sinked to water so they do not squeal.

[@albannach93]

Loving the videos guys, i clicked on the series because of the bikes but as a wild camping enthusiast you've definitely earned a sub 👍🏻 Always fuck the finnes that are moaning about boat, yous deserved a laugh after all that stress and you returned the boat, i know its a different county and rules are different but its not like you stole it 😂 Anyway keep it up guys, love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@mikelees5093]

Guy in the truck, just sat and watched, should of given you a hand with bike, what's that all about.

[@Pyhantaakka]

Gotta work... But who knows, there are all sorts of skiers on this planet.

[@orionswitness]

We don’t know the story , some truck drivers have leg disabilities .

[@TheJammyGits]

He did shout out the cab to see if we were ok but he definitely didn't fancy jumping out 🤣🤣🤣

[@sonnyday6830]

maybe its a health and safety issue if he did help....who would know these days

[@DR_REDACTED]

As a finnish person i must say most finns just dont help and that's sad. I once fell on my bike hit my head and bike landed on top of me (icey road) 2 people just walked by and looked at me while i was fighting to get up.

[@ChasingTheEchoesOG]

Next time you bump to a timber truck, making that load takes appr. 30 minutes. Surely you can spare that instead of taking such risks. Additionally, timber trucks may run tight schedules and such incidents delay them. Forest roads are built for forestry purposes, so other users give way and wait. That's probably the reason the driver did not help you; lesson to be learned. Or he had some other valid reason; like safety or health aspects. That said, luckily you did not injure yourself & safe journey onwards!

[@BreezyRider66]

Well on the basis of what I've just watched you chose the right bikes and you're gonna be just fine...

[@peer-olafkremer4715]

12:56 Glad you got out save! I would suggest to take off as much luggage as possible and then get the Bike out of the ditch. That’s the way I do it. Even with my 330 lbs at 6’9, it’s hard to pull the bike (Norden 901 Expedition) up and get it out of such a mess.

[@RealRexify]

Started watching the first 3 vids of this journey last night and fell in love with you both, stay safe and keep warm. I got super excited to see a part 4 ❤

[@TheJammyGits]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@dreamcrusher112]

Marth needs to hit the gym lol - Mitch did well to get that bike back up, bet you were glad you're on small bikes.

[@allseeingotto2912]

I can pick up my heavy old BMW 1100GS by myself, and I’m a old bloke 💪🏻

[@Gravelish]

Hope everything goes well in the future , safe travels. That full 2000km you will need some stamina and determination. I hope you guys make it! Very interesting to follow. Btw. It is a fopah to set up camp next to a fireplace and laavu like that, next time maybe little bit further away👍

[@TheJammyGits]

Thank you, we were really struggling to find a flat spot on this day and after the fall off we didn’t have much left in us to keep searching. Thanks for the advice we weren’t too sure on the etiquette.

[@CU65LATER]

Looks like you need a safejacket and lifesaver on lake 😂

[@fredrikcarlen3212]

Why would you just take someone's boat? Just because someone doesn't lock their car doesn't mean you can drive it around all you want no?

[@Intruuder1]

I know you need click bait thumbnails but think of our hearts 😂😂

[@JuNe-uk6iv]

if you find a boat and use it, please always, take it back to where you found it after 😆 someone owns it. someone who trusts people. so... do not brake peoples trust 🙂 very nice video guys.

[@09mantlek]

literally saw mitch swinging like fuck in the boat xD Me: "best be careful with that wood might not be that strong how long it's been left out there" breaks it xD

Now that is funny 😂

[@mikep4811]

Do you not refrigerate your yogurt?

[@neilurquhart8622]

Lively episode! Glad you’re alright Martha. I may have asked before but why are you called “Jammy gits”?

[@daner.d]

if I was that truck driver I would have given you a hand in getting that bike out and not just sit and watch another thing you might want to be careful when flying the drone on open water cause if you lose the signal to the drone it will fly back to where it took off from and if your not in the same spot it will land in the water and that would suck.

[@orionswitness]

Don’t overtake a truck with a narrow strip next to a drop….experience . Be cautious , not impatient ….bike riding is dangerous . Hope you both are riding motocross/ enduro boots …alpine star tech 7 s …. There is plenty of space under the gear lever wearing these on the 300s. Lower your bike by at least 40mm, lowering links cost not much , lower forks to match , the rally is too tall for anyone under 31 inch inseam . Cool video 😅

[@Jinado1]

They already have lowering links on it, and I believe the forks are lowered, too, or at least the handlebars themselves. They went over all that in her video where she passed her mod 2 and got her license I believe. But also, they really couldn't lower it any further. It's already got very little ground clearance for the offroad riding they're doing. That was quite evident a few videos ago back in the UK where Martha's pegs were literally scraping along the grass at one point. Also, there's no such thing as a bike too tall, you just gotta learn the proper techniques there are to riding a bike where your feet can't quite touch the ground comfortably (or even at all).

[@jarimiettinen779]

Martha, why are you so scared all the time? I would get a divorce if you were.😁.. Nxt time, just put water to rowlok.

Lighten up about the boat guys It’s not as if it’s state of the art it was in a pretty bad state of decay I’m sure the owner wouldn’t be overly upset You couldn’t find a nicer couple anywhere than these two You should be pleased that they have chosen to visit Scandinavia And probably recommend it to other people Or is that something you don’t want ?
