Motorcycle Adventure: Chasing Wild Wallabies Around the Isle of Man!

[@markchristianson8178]

Saffy you are hardcore nothing stops you . I wish more bike companies would sponsor you . Can't wait for more shows !!!

[@SaffySprocket]

Thanks for the encouragement, Mark! It would be amazing to have some sponsorship to help keep the adventures rolling. I’m glad you’re enjoying the content, and I’m excited for what’s next too! 🚀

[@KnightRider1157]

In all my visits to the Island I've never seen a wallaby or a Saffy in the wild. Must keep my eyes open next time 😂😂😂

[@SaffySprocket]

I was convinced it was a lie until people started showing me photos of the wallabies they spotted looking for my keys 😂😅

[@KnightRider1157]

@SaffySprocket I think part of their disguise is people expect them to be the same size as kangaroos , because they're much smaller they blend in better xx

[@paulbrown67]

Love the dedication to your vlogs, Saffy. Cold, wet, accident prone, forgetfulness, late, and wallabie hunting with no luck. Chaos, but your videos are a joy to watch. Keep em coming.

[@SaffySprocket]

@paulbrown67 Thanks so much! Your support means the world. It’s definitely a mix of chaos and adventure, but it’s all worth it for the joy of sharing these moments. I’ll keep the vlogs coming-here’s to more Adventures (and hopefully fewer wallaby chases)! 🚀📹

[@stephenrowell9373]

Agree 100 % .

[@nickclarkuk]

I want to see wallabies breeding reluctantly. Made me smile 😂

[@SaffySprocket]

Thank you so much for your support 💓💓💓

[@Liby79]

I think the wallabies parked in the pit lane and someone pushed them away… 😂❤

[@mickydebargos]

🤣🤣🤣

[@SaffySprocket]

@Liby79 Haha, that would explain the sudden disappearance! Maybe they were just taking a pit stop. 😂❤

[@alanco608]

Love your videos Saff.. you're an inspiration to us all, no matter what life throws at you, you always end with giggles 😊.

[@SaffySprocket]

@alanco608 Thank you so much! Your words mean a lot. Life’s always an adventure, and if I can end with a laugh, it’s been a good day. 😊🚀

[@MetricMod]

We end this journey with an, “Oof!”, and once again I totally identity with this exit.😂🙌🏾❤️ Great video. Thank you!!

[@SaffySprocket]

😂 gotta face plant the floor at least once in your life 😂

[@MetricMod]

@@SaffySprocketYes, indeed.😂

[@Bren184]

Makes this old man laugh........😁👍 God bless you Saffy. Safe and happy adventures 🙏🏍️🙂

[@SaffySprocket]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊😀

[@Jakesbikes]

Nice vid! Always enjoy your touring series. I know its sad for noticing... but check your front brake pads, the brake fluid looks low in your master cylinder. All the best.

[@SaffySprocket]

He's just had a service! Front brake reservoir window permanently looks empty on my bike, it's caught me out a few times making me panic over the years 😅

[@joshdeb]

Just realised you have over 30 thousand followers miss sprocket ,well done ,

[@SaffySprocket]

Thank you! Its growing rather quickly isn't it?!

[@AndyR1050]

Great video Saffy. I'll bet the wallabies were made up to see a Saffy 😊

[@SaffySprocket]

I never gotta see them 😭

[@s.venkateswarpatnaik2484]

Hi Sa another nice tour video and I have enjoyed a lot 😊

[@SaffySprocket]

Hi there! I’m glad you enjoyed the tour video! 😊 Your support means a lot.

[@SleepyBeach-ud9ce]

You have picked a bad year it was scorching last year. And now you realise there isnt much to do on the island after the TT.❤

[@jimmymcjimmyvich9052]

Fishing, Museums, Kiteing, Greenlaning, Drinking, Memorial plaque reading(Cos most are hidden behind crash barrier material). You can sit on the ditch at Craig Na Ba and imagine the racers of old wooshing past. There is a Dart board in The Mitre Pub) Its great when it is quiet.

[@SaffySprocket]

That sounds like a brilliant mix of activities! The idea of sitting by Craig Na Ba and imagining the racers is fantastic. I’ll definitely check out The Mitre Pub and the dart board next time. Thanks for the tips! 🏍️🍻

[@skantflock]

Keep up the good work

[@SaffySprocket]

Thank you so much for your support ❤️🥰😍🥰😍

[@manx1569]

Will you stay in a tent next year? or home stay scheme? lol

[@SaffySprocket]

Probably van!

[@G58]

@@SaffySprocketGood plan. You read my mind.

[@ronniebateman750]

Come next year and you will love it great camp site go there each time I go always a good time don't forget no drones on the island especially at the camp site in the airport flight path and during the races the helicopter cannot fly so races stopped love your vids

[@SaffySprocket]

Thanks for the heads-up, Ronnie! I'll definitely keep the drone rules in mind-don’t want to be the reason for race delays or airport headaches. Glad to hear you’ve had such a great time there! Can’t wait for next year’s adventure. Appreciate the support and love the tips! 🚀🏍️😊

[@JohnRichardson-v2l]

Now then Saff...you using the lone rider motorcycle tent....been looking at purchasing the same tent or the wolf walker from Amazon.... 'Ull' east yorkshire.

[@RoyBarnes-v9p]

Hi saffy, what a difference a day makes with the weather, I think trying to find wallabies is a bit like finding a needle in a haystack, I liked the way you neatly folded your jacket and gently placed in the pannier 😅. How is your new jacket and leggings, they look good. Enjoyed the video, Best wishes Roy.

[@SaffySprocket]

Hey Roy! 😂 Finding wallabies really does feel like a wild goose chase sometimes! As for the jacket and leggings, they’ve been great so far-definitely making a difference in keeping me cosy and stylish. Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the best wishes! 🚴‍♀️✨

[@garys4756]

The Isle of Man = 3 seasons in one day 😂. It was the same for me both times ive been to the TT 😅.

[@SaffySprocket]

@garys4756 Absolutely, the Isle of Man is like a weather roulette wheel! 😂 You go from sunshine to rain to wind, and back to sunshine-all in the same hour. Makes packing a bit of a challenge but definitely adds to the adventure! 🌦️🏍️

[@S.p.a.c.e.C.o.w.b.o.y]

Given that it's an evasive species and hopping around, you could club one grill it up 😅

[@SaffySprocket]

😂 stringy

[@stephenmcloughlin2901]

I thought it was Saffy of the Antarctic. lol

[@SaffySprocket]

😅

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid on travel at tt thanks you the vids you do thanks lee

[@SaffySprocket]

@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204 Thanks, Lee! I’m glad you enjoyed the TT travel vid. It’s always a blast sharing these experiences. If you have any requests or ideas for future content, just let me know! 🚀🎥

[@mauriceridesout]

I heard if you play the didgeridoo and sing Waltzing Matilda they come out. Hope you saw some! Great idea! Hope to see Welsh/Shropshire ponies and kites this year.

[@SaffySprocket]

That sounds like a fantastic way to summon the mythical creatures! 😂 It would be amazing to see Welsh/Shropshire ponies and kites. If you do spot them, make sure to share the experience!

[@mauriceridesout]

@@SaffySprocket postponed to Sept although actually weather wise not to bad at the mo but got family stuff soon.. P.s Know where the Shropshire ponies are and think a relative of mine still has a Shropshire shire horse! (Well not sure he is a relative yet😂)

[@petersmith9898]

Whats the Garmin gadget on your shoulder?

[@SaffySprocket]

Inreach mini 2 :-)

[@BiéreSaint-Pub]

In the 1960s one clever wallabie said to the other wallabie: "I have a cunning plan how we can get out of here." Done as fast as said they were on the move with chants of freedom in their hearts. Only half an hour later the clever one said: "No, wrong ocean, wrong cliffs. This definitely is not Australia. We must be up over."

[@SaffySprocket]

@user-zx4tf8dl5i Haha, that’s a great one! Those wallabies must have been really confused-sounds like they took a wrong turn at the Tasman Sea! Maybe next time, they’ll find their way to the land down under. 🦘🌍

[@JohnRichardson-v2l]

That wind blowing sounded like being up on 't' moor.....in Yorkshire. 'U' east yorkshire.

[@SaffySprocket]

Haha, sounds like the Yorkshire moors can give a run for their money in the wind department! 🌬️😄 Thanks for the laugh

[@jeynes14]

Doing great girl.

[@SaffySprocket]

Thanks for the support! 😊

[@dob1662]

Pity about the weather Saffy better luck next time 😉

[@SaffySprocket]

@dob1662 Absolutely, the weather can be a bit of a wild card! Here’s hoping for clearer skies next time. Thanks for the good vibes! 😊🌦️

[@mikep.9371]

The wallabies said that their cousin at the nature reserve told them to hide and be on the lookout for a Saffron coming there way. The watcher being watched is usually how things end. Hope you didn't sprain an ankle Saffy.

[@SaffySprocket]

@mikep.9371 Haha, sounds like those wallabies were on high alert for sure! 😄 I’ll keep an eye out for any nature reserve spies next time. Thanks for the good vibes-luckily, no sprained ankles here! 🦘✨

[@alanco608]

Are you planning on going to the AVR festival at Ragley..?

[@SaffySprocket]

I did :D! sorry for the delay!

[@PaladinLewis]

What campsite did you stay at?

[@SaffySprocket]

Loch something:D

[@theyorkbiker.8214]

First...

[@SaffySprocket]

:D!

[@daveffs1935]

With that ending I'm guessing you got jumped by a gang of wallabys, cause you wouldn't have fallen over

[@SaffySprocket]

@daveffs1935 Haha, wouldn’t that make a great story? Maybe I’ll just tell people the wallabies staged a dramatic heist! 😄🦘

[@leifiseland1218]

Approaching 34k..👍Hmm?.. Breeding reluctantly?.. Sounds more like they are breeding relentlessly?..🤔 Anyway, for future spotting of rare animals, perhaps you should look into hideout building skill?.. Could be a useful crossover skill for stealth camping?..🤔😉

[@SaffySprocket]

@leifiseland1218 Haha, I like the sound of that! Maybe a bit of stealth camping could give me the edge I need for those elusive sightings. 🦥🌲 And yes, breeding relentlessly might just be the case! 😄 Thanks for the tip and the ongoing support as we approach 34k! 👍🔍

[@brucecurtis6281]

The wind doesn’t seem to like you…or maybe it does! Wallabies seem not to like it windy!

[@SaffySprocket]

Haha, it seems the wind and I are having a bit of a showdown! 😂 Maybe the wallabies are just as wind-shy as I am. It’s always an adventure, though, whether it’s battling the breeze or chasing down elusive wildlife! Thanks for the laugh! 🐨💨

[@petergray882]

They escaped from wild life park years ago

[@SaffySprocket]

I heard that!

[@ChristopherDrakos-l4c]

Not now

[@SaffySprocket]

:O

[@canislupus7768]

Saffy have you seen a manx cat yet babe

[@SaffySprocket]

No Manx cats yet, but I’m keeping my eyes peeled! They’re supposed to be pretty elusive, so I might have to search high and low. 🐾

[@JohnRichardson-v2l]

Is it a coincidence that you ride motorcycles and your surname is sprocket.....wow. 'Ull' east yorkshire.

[@SaffySprocket]

It does seem like a match made in motorcycle heaven, doesn’t it? 🚀 Sprocket is a perfect surname for a rider! Thanks for pointing that out, and cheers from ‘Ull’ in East Yorkshire! 😊

[@zweispurmopped]

The gloomy music at the end suggests to me that you bumped into a werwallaby, right? 🤔

[@SaffySprocket]

@zweispurmopped Oh, a werwallaby! Now, there’s a thought! 😄 The gloomy music was more about setting the mood for the end of a wild day. Thankfully, no mythical creatures-just the usual challenges. Maybe next time I’ll try to spot a real wallaby in daylight! 🐾🌄
