Riding TET around Budapest - part01 -

This is the first part of my ride on the Trans Euro Trail around Budapest.
In this video I start from the starting point of the track 10, crossing the border to Slovakia at Esztergom - Sturovo, arriving back on the eastern side of the Danube river and continue the new track to Szendehely.
It's not a long ride, but so many things happened!

Awesome adventures Kate! Looking forward for the next episode 👏

[@braapt7]

Thank you! 😃 I will be late with the next one... busy June ahead of me. But it will come asap! ^^

Motorcyclist musician always has an edge! Great video and great groove 🤟

[@braapt7]

✋🙂 Thank you so much! I am happy you liked my little video... and groove. ✌😁 The train started it! I just followed. 😄

That poppy field is out of this world 🤯 Love the bonus clip 😃

[@braapt7]

Thank you Valeria! ✋🙂 That poppy field was like heaven after the fight in the mud in the forest - and picking up the T7 alone... :D I just had to do the bonus, that train was so inviting to jam a little improvisation. 😁

[@advseeker]

Quite nice trails you have there 🙂

[@braapt7]

Not too shabby, indeed! =)

[@GreenString]

Another great travel video. Well done for dropping your T7 on the left hand side. Every time I drop mine I ALWAYS drop it on the right ! Why is this? 😂

[@braapt7]

Thank you! ✋🙂 well, maybe my left leg is shorter, or subconsciously I just try to protect the lame OEM exhaust system... 🤣

[@Blockbuster2033]

Great video! I just found your channel and I really like your positivity and your quirky narration. Also great footage. I had that same thought when I saw the clip with the train on the bridge haha.

[@braapt7]

Thank you so much! ✋🙂 I am happy you liked my little "quirky" video. =) And yes, the train was a ready made drum solo, hands down. And since I am a hobby bass player, I had to do it... ehhhehehe 😁

[@tanergumus1179]

And this was an awsome video :)

[@braapt7]

And thank you so much, I am so happy you liked it! ✋😌

Nice Video, thanks for that. Some day I'll hit that TET too. I've been only in the Netherlands. But find no time to finally edit the video. One question about your mirrors. Are they from Aliexpress? How do you like them? I read, they are too flimsy, are they? Can you easily fold them away while riding offroad or you need to Loose the bolts? Thanks for you feedback

[@braapt7]

Thank you so much, I am happy you liked my little video! ✋🙂 Finding time to edit a video is really annoying at riding season, I have so many footages on the HDD, but there is so much more to ride... decisions, decisions. 😁 The mirror is from amazon, I think it is the same no brand you can find on aliexpress or any other noname part webshops. It worked for me pretty fine for two and a half year, it survived a tons of branch hits forest offroads, drops of the motorbike and other abuses. The right one just felt off a week ago. The plastic part at the joint broke about a year ago, the middle metal part is kinda thin, yes, but it holded until now. (It shaked a bit more as before) I think it was OK for the price. And it looks cool with the SW-Motech handguards on the T7. =) Also you don't need a tool to fold it, just grab it and fold it in. Although it's not folding as much in as the round shape enduro mirrors, or the double folding mirrors.

Thanks for your feedback. Wish you the nice season and safe rides!

[@braapt7]

You are welcome, and I wish to you the same! ✌🙂

Nice! I'm positively surprised by the variety of landscapes in Slovakia and Hungary. So you're a Hungarian expat in Italy?

[@braapt7]

The variety of the landscapes is pretty balanced around here, except high rocky mountains. Unfortunately the populated areas are really close together, you can't ride a long distance without hitting a village or a bigger road. Which might be good for beginner adventure riders. And yes, part of my family lives in Italy, and another part in Hungary. I am a lost soul inbetween. 😁

[@hns01]

Not the worst to be split between these two countries. Sorry for being nosey, I always like to figure out where people are based. Myself I'm an Italian citizen living in Austria. And I'm enjoying your videos! 🙂

[@braapt7]

@@hns01 Thank you so much, I am happy you like the videos! ✋😌

Hi Kate, thanks for the great video - I'm heading down to Budapest on my World Raid next week and would love to ride some TET sections. Hopefully its now too wet as I'm putting the stock Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR (stock) tyres back on the bike given the amount of tarmac I need to cover to get there.

[@braapt7]

Thank you too, I am happy you liked my little journey video! ✋🙂 Well... yes. There was a lot of rain, and some of these sections will be muddy and slippery in the next two weeks at least. However, many of this - and other tracks around Budapest, especially the southern ones - will be doable even with the stock Pirelli tires. Just keep away from forest tracks and roads North - East of Budapest. The logging work heavy machines and jeeps making deep tracks and mud ruts. Ride safe!

[@STWUK-q8y]

Thanks Kate, but given the weather we are having and predicted for the week across the whole of NW Europe I don't think I'll be bringing the bike now. Maybe next year.

[@braapt7]

As you prefer, hopefully next year the weather will be more kind to us. ✋🙂
