Anne-France is an absolute legend, and still going strong. This is a great time capsule. Thank you!

Its shame they don't make TV shows like this anymore, everything has to be High tech , it was great to see two people ,just doing a trip , and having such a great time,

I met and photographed Anne-France for a portrait series I've been working on this past summer in Paris. She doesn't ride any longer but she is as feisty as ever. It was a privilege to spend time with her.

Reminds me of our m/c trip around Australia in 1980...a working holiday taking 10 mts..on a Honda 750 K7..and friends from Perth part of the way on their BMW 100.rs ..thanks for the wonderful memories !!❤

Free spirits in the seventies. Love it!

Looking forward to watching this clip. Thanks for making the KZbin world aware of it.

I remember watching this back in the seventies, thinking that I’d love to do that. Stewart sums it up well, at the end and how awesome is Anne, always another adventure to be done.

Got a blue 72’ r75/5 toaster tank myself. Loved hearing the sewing machine purr of the beemers 😊.

[@craigjeffrey3236]

That was a great memory..I went right around Australia in 1984/5 and it was like they said at the end...You don't want it to end...The adventures me and my dog had in the wild were like an Outback movie...A fasicating place where you realize just how small you are...Kawasaki Z1000...

[@Decade-c9k]

Never gone motorcycling, but after seeing this, maybe I should give it a try...

[@bazz6670]

Awsome stuff, love the simplicity of the 70s

[@MrBenHaynes]

Why did I ever sell my BMW R80? The memories listening to the bikes in this video are strong. Yes, the frame was flexy and the headstem bearings always worked themselves loose, but it was lovable. A dab of champers as perfume, that's a new one on me. Is it a French thing? (the dab, not the champers) Fairly aggressive tread for a big touring bike!

Epic trip!

[@Jesse-B]

Thanks Auntie, keep 'em coming.

[@HeathLedgersChemist]

Epic journey with just the two of us. Plus the film crew.

[@christopherhughes2211]

Got a 72 r75/5 toaster tank myself and my town of Joplin MO took a real bad tornado hit kinda like Darwin did.

[@kimlemke5737]

I was able to ride there in 1975-76 but never got to Darwin due to a Typhoon.

They collude with each other, make mischief, suppress and smear, do evil things, and people and gods are angr.
