Thank you!

And again an awesome video from your super interesting travels. Thanks a lot for sharing and making of theses little films. Inspires me again and again.👍 By the way I'm again thinking, if I should sell my KTM 1190 Adventure and keep on going with my T 7 Rally. On the other hand I love the power of the KTM.😂

@@clukait thank you for your kind comment. Regarding choice of bikes, that is a tough call as we don’t necessarily select the bike we ‘should’ have to do the job, we select the bike which makes us feel good. I am keeping the T7 but just bought a used AJP PR7 to do the rougher roads ( see my Spain video). I can pick up the PR7 on my own. Life is full of interesting compromises, isn’t it? Travel safe!

[@clukait]

@@carpe_via , you are absolutely right. And the funny thing is that I was considering swapping the KTM for an AJP PR7! For exactly the same reason you mentioned. Apparently we adventure riders are pretty much the same!😂

[@carpe_via]

@@clukait always looking for a better ‘tool’ to do the job. 😉

Thank you for watching!

Nice video. What time of year did you do this journey?

[@carpe_via]

Sorry I missed your question. We went end of May/beginning of June. Just warm enough to have snow-free roads up North. Southern Sweden was already in full spring.

Sorry about your mother. I fear my parents don't have too many years left.

[@carpe_via]

Thank you, Nathan. You are a kind man. We cannot stop time but we CAN do our best to use the time we have with them while they are still here. Then we have no regrets when they do pass. I wish you and them the best.
