Reaching the Arctic Circle from UK (10,000km Motorcycle Adventure) Ep.10

[@KasperCDK]

You are totally right. The port says: Reindeers, please close the gate.

[@grantlingley1385]

What a ride! On dual Sport bikes no less! You two are awesome!

[@Luke_explores]

Another great video! " Im useless without you I Dont even know my left and right" made me laugh out loud 🤣

In central Finland, a neighbor had a Finnish greyhound. Sometimes that dog was so far away that after we stopped hunting it was nowhere to be found. The dog's owner left his scarf hanging on the fence post. And when he came back later, the dog was lying next to the pole where the scarf was hanging.

It's nice to watch your video, especially when you two are having fun together, you clearly enjoy each other's company and it's a joy to watch.

[@DragonSniper43]

The good old child in use all joining you in the wobble voice when you rode on the tracks, and Martha couldn't stop the giggle. Love the vids keep them coimng

[@enduromotorradtouren]

Cool railway track north of the Arctic Circle. Have to catch up with your series after two weeks on the road/track with my CRF 300 L, like in Northeastern Italy (Friaul/Friulia) in Indian summer. Happy days, Günter/Nürnberg

[@janeharris9879]

So thoughtful for others. And a smashing video. Thank you for sharing your adventures!!!

[@TheJammyGits]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SammiJN1991]

The epic journey continues! I think the running theme so far has been highs and lows.... as is life, I suppose! You guys are an inspiration for getting out there and just embracing it all, the good with the bad and the experiences and memories of the adventure. 🎉

[@mikeh1404]

Great to watch

[@jupe8025]

The gate is only for reindeer, it's allowed to go thru.

[@cliffordmillington8021]

I’m loving these videos the scenery is fantastic ❤

[@SuperHurtman]

Soooo if it's windy equals no mosquitos, just saying for future notice 😉, best regards from Northern Sweden ☺

[@e-polkija]

17:28 It was a great move to plant a tree there

[@Gravelish]

That huge lake Lokka is an artificial lake. Biggest one in Europe. It`s kinda a reservoir for power plants down the stream.

[@IkeVMAX4]

[@fuglbird]

Great to see you two doing a proper motorcycle trip. Thank you for sharing.

[@AlanKent-r3i]

Another brilliant vlog guys thank you for sharing the adventure x

[@leboef7098]

Nice to see my "home turf" in your journey; I have a cabin in Lokka. The lakeside can be indeed very windy at times, so that's definitely a terrible spot for camping in that wind. 😅 Already waiting for the next episode!

[@sharonlyon6512]

The words on the fence, reindeer close the gate

[@humis69]

Oh, you've been in Salla 🙃 Welcome 😁 Enjoy 👍

[@BorderGuardJaegerFinlandia]

No way... Lokka.. 😢.. I was fishing up there in the early the 1980:s. It's a massive dammed lake. I still remember these fishing boats that came to the harbour and these fishes that they had catched where massive and their boats where filled up to the top with them. My father still have these pictures that he took of their catch. We ended up buying some fish from these men, because we wanted to continue our way and not stay for a longer period of time as we planned. We grilled and smoked some of that fish in the evening and ate them later on that evening.. We where out fishing and camping for a week and drove around to trough different places in the Finnish Lapland. It was our family and a couple of my fathers brother toghether with their families... I can still so vividly remember that the weather was as ominous as it seem to be for you guys. I was so afraid of that place (I where just about 6 years old) because of the the weather and because you could still see some of trees that had ended up being flooded to some degree, but some of them stood in the middle of nowhere out in that massive lake. We had to drive so gently with our small boats, because these trees could still be standing, so you barely could see the tip of that tree top just below the waterline... So we ended up buying some fishes from these fishermen, that had got them by using fishing nets. We decided to continue our trip, instead of stay there for as long as we had planned in the beginning . All we children was whining and complaining about all these huge "B52 Stratofortress" and some of these smaller and more agile "P38 Lightning" typed mosquitoes. They where attacking us so furiously, so somebody decided to hit that air attack alarm. like your relatives had to do during the "Battle of Britain".

Great ride guys, thanks for sharing!

Our pleasure!

I watched a video every day in south korea. Thank you so much ㅎㅎ ha ha ~~

[@TheJammyGits]

That's great! Thank you!

[@MNmostly]

Thank you, excellent episode! Nice to see the real effort and determination required for a trip like this. Have you thought about carrying a small can of extra fuel? Even a liter of fuel would get you a long way should you misjudge the distance a little or have a leak.

[@TheJammyGits]

Thank you! We had one ordered that didn’t come in time, so we will be carrying one on our next trip.

[@KariLepola]

There indeed is a dam, because Lokka is an artificial lake for producing hydroelectric power.

[@joshuabroek]

I'm a train chooo choooo

[@TheJammyGits]

😂

[@Saxonpod]

How are you getting 350km out of the CRF300L? Have you upgraded the fuel tank to a larger one?

[@TheJammyGits]

Yes, Mitch has upgraded to a Acberis 14 litre tank

[@dazfromnz01]

I didn’t even know reindeer could read !! If they are that smart maybe they closed the gates behind them.😊

[@alexeirahamov5650]

The form of the word reindeer in Finnish tells you that you are not talking TO reindeer but ABOUT reindeer. You would understand if you could read Finnish.

[@dazfromnz01]

@@alexeirahamov5650 so are you saying that reindeer can’t read ???

[@alexeirahamov5650]

​@@dazfromnz01No, I am not saying that. I am saying only that the sign was not written for reindeer.

[@dazfromnz01]

@@alexeirahamov5650 what , so they can read then ?😂😂

[@alexeirahamov5650]

@@dazfromnz01 Since the laws of reindeer herding are very complicated they must be able to read or at least know competent law consults.

This "old Fart" is enjoying living his life vicariously through the two of you. Martha, take it easy on the boy! Mitch, be good to Martha! Keep her warm and fed! 😆

[@jwruskus5900]

Whats your raingear brand?

[@daner.d]

might be a good idea to think about an aftermarket fuel tank, I think they make a 7gal tank or 26.49 liters. I'd be crapping my pants thinking about fuel. you two are killing it, Martha's giggle going down the train tracks got me laughing just a bit... ᕙ(`▿´)ᕗ O̲ppa̲ (っ-̶●̃益●̶̃)っ ,︵‿ S̲t̲yl̲e̲

Why making it so difficult searching for campsites ? You can camp everyware. When you see a nice spot, Just camp.

[@liannfoster5467]

First again ❤

[@peketee2278]

I always choose the newest comments first, so you're the last one 🤔🤔

You did the right thing, it should be locked if it was forbidden to drive on that road. Do not worry guys 💪.. OK, you found that in the translation anyway 🍻🖐️

[@ishymoto3179]

Hi guys, been subscribed to you since my accident back in June and loving your videos being a big adventure rider myself. Want to say well done on marking out the pot hole as I'm living proof of what can happen. Yes back in June on one of the last lanes of the day having done the peaks I was travelling along a pretty easy byway on my ktm 1290 and two pot holes ahead with water in, second one unfortunately was 2 ft deep and boom that was me sky high. Landed on my left hip and shattered my pelvis 😢 nearly 4 weeks in hospital. So yes we'll done and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it when I get o er there. It wood be nice to have you as a subscriber on my channel 😂.

[@TheJammyGits]

Thanks so much, so sorry to hear about your accident, but it just shows you can never be too careful out there on the trail. Safe recovery!

[@moonliteX]

why do you insist on staying at campsites? it's way more private just to stay in the forest

Just a respectful message to say that Lapland is an old term for the land and often seen as problematic or disrespectful nowadays. Instead the native Sámi people use the word Sápmi (sap-mee) as the name of the land. Thanks for sharing, it's an amazing route you're taking! 🙏

[@arcticr]

Great video, as always ! I might be wrong, however my understanding is that that the use of Sapmi to describe the land is much wider then your description suggests. Sapmi is the historical region of the Sami people and consists of the northern part of Finland, Sweden, Norway and a fourth country “preliminary disqualified from mentioning”… The southern part of Sapmi starts well south of the Arctic Circle “at least in Norway” and ends at Nordkapp. Please do correct me if my understanding is totally wrong 🤗

[@MotoBetty]

@@arcticr Yes that's correct. The name for this land that covers four countries Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia is Sápmi which used to be called Lapland, which is now considered pejorative. In Norway historically it was called Finnmǫrk, Sweden it was Lappland, and I think Finland was Lappi. But it's better to call it Sápmi now and shows respect to the Sámi people.

[@BorderGuardJaegerFinlandia]

This netting is just the Reindeer owners that have put that on place, because of their reindeers. Drive through, no problems..
