Was it worth it? 3.500 km offroad to NordKapp

[@tshansen]

This my friend, is one of the best motorcycle videos I have seen in a while, and reminds me of so many important things when it comes to explore, enjoy, document and share. Absolutely loved it. So honest and genuine. I hope people sit back and realise what a great accomplishment this video is. Not to reach North Cape... that is something most people can do. But to document it like this, put it all into a memorable story along with amazing cinematography 👏🏻 Thank you Alexis, I really needed this. All the best from the west coast of Norway 🇳🇴

With so many motorcycle travel videos on KZbin now which is a great thing , but it's sometimes hard to find the really great ones , congratulations on your trip and making it so enjoyable to watch. One problem is my list of places to go, just keeps getting longer 😊. Once again thankyou well done . PS come down to Australia 👍

What an excellent production!! This deserves MANY views. Thank you for sharing your adventure. Such beautiful part of Europe, that not many get to see.

So grateful for your comments Viking MC Klub! I agree on the number of views 😁🤣😜 Finland was breathtaking, worth a trip for sure!

[@macddrr]

Really loved this video. In fact, it's not "just" a video but a wonderful, full-fledged documentary. I've been to the Nordkapp last year - by car - and it's fun to recognize the roads in the final kilometers and Nordkapp itself. We had already made plans to ride to the Nordkapp by motorcycle but now I am even more convinced to do so as soon as possible. Greetings from Belgium and big congratulations on the fantastic video.

[@alexislecarb]

David, it feels so good to read your comment and I’m grateful for these kind words. I’ve put lots of efforts in making this video and I truly appreciate the positive feedback!! I think doing it on a motorcycle is completely different than by car since it gets you closer to the Finnish nature. This trip was a fantastic experience. Thank you again!! Ride safe

Thank you guys for this video!! It was very well made! It gives very good idea of how the Finland is as an adventure country -the more far north you go the more beautiful it gets. But it doesn't mean that there is nothing to see in the southern parts. They just doesn't amaze you in the same way because you can see similar places and views in Baltics and Sweden and in other parts of northern Europe. Best regards from the TET Linesman of Finland.

Nice video!! Merci Beaucoup!! My wife was at the Nordkap as a child, I was there with my daughter in 2019, and our son was there 2 years a go with his friend. (so our whole family has been there, we are from the Netherlands) It is a very nice and beautiful trip and actually the trip is best part. The Nordkap itself is a touristtrap. It is a "touch and go" thing actually.

[@alexislecarb]

100% agree with you Arjen!! We spent an hour maximum there and then we rode around to find a place to sleep. And actually the people out there weren’t even very nice to us, so indeed, the NordKApp is a tourist trap, but what’s around is incredible

[@GunnarNoer]

Great video. Just keep in mind folks that in Norway you are not allowed to go off road anywhere you can't drive an ordinary two wheel drive car, in other words, anything less than an ordinary gravel road. This comes from our environmental laws regarding motorized vehicles. One important reason is that if you leave tracks in the terrain, it takes years before they disappear, because things grow very slowly in the arctic. Finland and Sweden is much more liberal on motorized offroading. In Norway you are likely to get a hefty fine if caught riding in the terrain.

[@alexislecarb]

I rode a 701 with a 13 litre tank and a 6 litre Rotopax. Fuel range is a real issue in the north of Finland, but well worth exploring. But don't get lost or cross into Russia.

Agreed! We followed the noman's land for hundreds of kilometers along Russia. Was exciting

The Finnish border guards, even pre Ukraine botched invasion, were very keen to make sure we knew our route and did not wander into Russia.

Et nous envie d'y retourner !! Hyper content que tu aies aimé la vidéo

[@leeomurchu1213]

Great video guys, some of the places you found were epic. Also appreciate the effort to record in English. Merci beaucoup 👍👍

[@alexislecarb]

Thank you so much buddy!! Not everyone agrees on my choice to record in english while I'm french, probably because of the accent or other, but I think it makes the video more accessible to most of the people watching it!

[@PELIProducts1]

Amazing video and amazing adventure, Alexis!🔥Thanks for your trust!

Thank you so much for this video with crazy images. You probably lived some wondefull moments on the road. I would love to do this kind of trip with my bike and friends. Thank you for sharing it.

[@alexislecarb]

Gildas, I'm super grateful for your comments, and see you had a good time watching my video. We definitely lived some wonderful moments, and I would suggest going out there and exploring the wilderness, because it provides you with unforgettable memories. Just do it! Cheers man!

[@janra8653]

Thanks for doing it in English. Makes all the difference, now we all can enjoy this.

[@alexislecarb]

Thank you so much mate. Feel free to share the video to support the channel. There's two groups : those who like it like you, and those who hate my accent and suggest I speak french, my native language hahah ...

A beautiful trip, documented with an excellent video. I watch with great pleasure. 🤜🤛👍

Thank you so much my dear friend!! I appreciate a lot the positive feedback

[@offroadagain]

Great Video Guys! I feel like I should pack the Arica Twin right now and leave. Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@alexislecarb]

Go for it Michael!! One of the best idea was deciding to leave. Then the rest is memories 😇

[@NeoRimeOnline]

What drone did you use for those gorgeous shots?

[@alexislecarb]

Hey Neo Rime, It's the DJI Mavic 2 Pro! Might need to change for a lighter and smaller one, but this one makes great footage!

[@ChrisPrast]

What an awesome trip and what a great video! Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed it.

Grateful for the time you spent watching it Chris!

Lovely video. Well done guys. I did a similar trip in my land rover with my son about 10 years ago. I met lots of bikers and it was that that caused me to get rid of the 4 wheels and get a bike. Would love to do it again on 2 wheels.

[@alexislecarb]

Oh that’s so cool buddy!!! As far as we are concerned, we haven’t met many riders. Not more than five in Finland and then just a few once at the top in NordKapp! Never been on a trip with a 4x4, but it cannot beat the feeling of riding a 2-wheels in the wild 😇

[@knifemike9024]

Awesome Video! Thanks for sharing your Trip and this cool impressions with us! 👍🏼🍻

First things first: amazing video, awesome storytelling. How long did it take you to get back to Paris after reaching the north cape?

What a nice journey! And a marvellous documentary you have done. Congrats from Portugal!

[@alexislecarb]

Thank you so much! It was a first time for us, going that far and trying to document it, so your comment means a lot!!

[@olphen0117]

It is a very enviable trip for me, surrounded by building forests and natural environments that are off limits everywhere I go.

[@alexislecarb]

Fantastic scenery indeed! I recommend for anyone willing to experience some real wilderness stuff!

[@cgmtv]

The video certainly responds to the question in the tittle! I had this exact doubt about riding in those northern countries where I though it would be boring… it doesn’t seem so. Great video of a great adventure. Cheers

[@alexislecarb]

Thank you Cesar!! I hope it does, indeed. It kind be boring at times because of long straight gravel roads, but there's tiny little things on the way that make it exciting!!

[@cgmtv]

@@alexislecarb exactly what I though! Adventure level is high, the fact of being alone and far from everything too, the risks, etc. The question that remained in my head was about the return. How did you do it? How much time. (I’m living in Brussels)

[@alexislecarb]

We reached NordKapp on May, 31, we left NordKapp on the 1st of June and we arrived back in Paris on the 4th. So 3 days to do 3600 km. Norway > Finland > Sweden > Denmark > Germany > Belgium > France

[@jeanjacques9980]

Wonderful record of your trip, great bilingual commentary. Trip south will be incredible, brave of you to camp but Norway is eyewateringly expensive, even petrol and Norway has loads of oil just off shore! Norway managed its’ natural resources really well unlike its’ neighbour to the south west over the North Sea.

[@alexislecarb]

Thank you for the kind words Jean! I find it exciting to read such positive feedbacks about my work in this video.

Love your videos buddy! Just quick question?? Where did you get decals for your bike I love combination mosko green with green on the tanks as I am getting 1290r and don't like blue too much. MNy thanks

[@alexislecarb]

Hey bud! Thank you so much for the positive feedback. The decals were custom-made, and that's why I chose the green gear from Mosko! I'm changing the bike's color next week for a new sandy stuff

[@pistonhead31]

@@alexislecarb can you please send me some ideas where from custom made? Who can I contact? Found some stuff on ebay looks OK... Sandy or green for me definitely. Many thanks

[@alexislecarb]

@@pistonhead31 sure! Contact AG Graphics m.facebook.com/aggraphicss/. They just made me a new custom graphic kit for the 1290! Tell ‘‘em you come from me!
