Chris’ Motorcycle Rides
South Africa
Приєднався 22 жов 2013
Thank you for tuning in. Mostly motorcycling stuff happening on this channel . I started riding when i was very young. My first bike was a Suzuki TS 50 cc . I used to ride that bike everywhere. Now a days I ride a Bmw Gs Adventure 1250 a Harley Davidson Road King and a Harley Davidson CVO Ultra.
My Channel is mostly about my motorcycle trips that i do around South Africa and the Neighbouring Countries.
Over the years, I have done many trips with friends, my wife, or even alone. On my bike, the world is my oyster. It is an incredible blessing that I feel so fortunate to be able to share with you guys.
Subscribe to my channel here on UA-cam and you can stay up to date with my trips and see some more wonderful places around Southern Africa with me.
See you on the road

Chris your open face helmet how is it on the road? Is more for summer or do you use it all the time? Please give me some info. Sal like om te weet...
Hi I use an open face all the time on my Harley I have a few half helmets I bought in America but mostly use my 3/4 HJC helmet for longer distance rides as it covers my ears… In winter use them with buffs … ridden over 30 000 km across the USA all with open face helmets everywhere even got snow once but prefer the openness and use a buff if it gets cold… hope this answers your question
How long did this take you?
16 days
Can you tell me the name of the Group that sings the song. Id love to get it.
Unicamentecelentano by Adriano Celentano
Cool movie!! Great Music !! 🎉
❤ Thank you appreciated
Nice video Uncle 👌
Thanks Hein
Hi Chris, when did you do this trip, like what time of the year? Cheers Lars
Hi was in the middle of the year cold nights warm days but also touristy around Sossusvlei the down side…. I find winter the best compromise for Namibia
Daar is niks mooier as Namib se sons ondergang nie...
Stem 100% 👌
Cool video. I hope to do a similar ride one day too.
Thanks yes its a great ride you should certainly do it
My hart trek sommer n punt om tr doen wat jy doen. Plan in the making soos hulle sê...een van die mooi dae. Dankie vir die saam ry om te sien hoe en waar.
Dankie bly die plan is aan die rol ;-)
I recognized the typical Klein Karoo rock formations of the mountains.
Yes it’s a mixed bag of scenery
Nice vid . Two ? how do u do that footage and dont you get a copy right strike with the music?
Thanks ..I have a clip to comic app to change footage and the music is copyright but some artists allow their music to be used without it being a strike… probably for the exposure
@@chrismotorcycletravelsZA very cool
Loved that. Recognised Baviaans. Am I right?
Yip it was a bit of variety ..thanks
My bucket list keeps getting longer! Nice trip, ride safe 👍
hahaha glad i could help
Nice route never new it exsisted
🤘
When is the best time to go to Namibia? Avoiding rain etc..
I would say Winter Months which in the middle of the year but I did this complete trip between Jan and February and 7000 km it didn’t rain once….
safe travels enjoy
thanks appreciated
a thing of beauty!!!
absolutely
Dang that be a great ride - thank you Chris be blessed
thank you appreciated
Nice and green.
yes a beautiful time of the year now
Your music is also very cool 👌🌟
@@eddievanpachtenbeke1870 thanks
Cool Video Chris I want to also visit Namibia - can you share your route and accomodation and what time of the year you visited ? Thanks
thanks this was June last year its fairly cold but the days are nice ....I did Ai Ais then Fish River Canyon then Seeheim then Helmeringshausen camped a a farm Auberes then Aus Luderitz and back home via Rosh Pinah and Oranjemund you will have to check it out on a map as that is all i use and years of travelling to Namibia
Yster 😅😅😅😅 lekker manne
hulle is beslis
Oh and the music is great. Groete from New Zealand.
😊Thanks
Glad I stumbled on your channel. Great to do this trip through your video. Made me long back to South Africa. Keep on riding and stay safe.
Thanks glad you enjoyed it 🤘
nice vids m8
Hey, thanks appreciated
Fantastic Chris. I made up my mind on what to do next winter. Just a few questions You never seems to stand upright and ride. Is there a reason? How much sand did you encounter. I am not a experienced sand rider
@@sewespretorius1633 Hi yes I’m a lazy rider and don’t mind the movement of the motorcycle between my legs… Probably because I have been doing sand roads for years…. Trust me if it gets really hectic I stand but it must be really hectic as the sand wiggle doesn’t really bother me…. It is just years of riding so you will find your groove with more experience… Thanks for the comment and enjoy your ride next winter 🤘
Welcome to zimbabwe mate,enjoy your stay
thanks was fun
Wonderfully informative! How do you find out about the technology (such as the 360 camera) that you use for your videos? Is it by research or watching other videos?
Watching other people’s videos picked my interest and then I researched about how it works and how to use them following people’s advice and tips on UA-cam
Thanks Chris! I've been waiting so long for someone to say how and where they attach their 360º cameras. I'm an Itchy Boots fan and she offers several courses covering camera uses, settings drone usage and a diverse array of other photo/video practices. I do have a drone but I'm still learning how to use it. Have you heard of/thought of the Chigee system? I bought the unit and had BMW Cape Town Motorrad fit it to my newly acquired 2023 R1250GS (shout out to Neil Berry) and it is beyond awesome. Continuous front and back cameras, Apple Play, and seamless connection between bike-chigee-phone-helmet. I'm a bit of a gadget freak. Loving the 1250 (my 4th GS) after recently selling my CVO StreetGlide ☹ which I loved also. Keep the ride stuff coming please. I'm a big fan.
Hi thanks for the comment I haven’t heard of that system but will check it out … Im also a fan of Noraly she is certainly next level…and an inspiration to travel
🤘
Dankie Chris, vandag ek jou channel ontdek het doen ek nie veel nie. Die trips, die plekke, die bikes, die musiek is great. Millions of happy and safe miles.
Baie dankie …glad you enjoyed it appreciate your comment
Thanks for sharing !
Hope there are enough marshals to show the way for those that are not familiar with the route! Seems complicated, see you next weekend 15 June 2024.
There certainly will be…. We want you to enjoy this year’s event
No rush to get everywhere slowly. So lekka!
Ek het skool gegaan op Montagu en julle het verby ons plaas van destyds gery, net voor jy die Wildehondekloofpas opgaan na Barrydale. Dankie vir n skitterende video !
Baie Dankie
Always great music with the great scenery
Great video Chris. The editing was superb, and it really looked like you and Gerhard enjoyed your two nighter.
Thanks Bruce yes the R62 is always a great ride
Really enjoyed your video -great scenery and outstanding mountains - thanks so much
Thank you
Lekka edit Chris, fantastic job. You are definitely getting some great use out of your 360, love it 🙂👍🏻🇿🇦.. Thanks for taking us along 😃
Thanks 👍 yes I really like the 360 camera it makes more sense now appreciate your feedback
Thanks for this video!! It took me 30 minutes to find someone who showed how they mounted their camera for good side views and pillion views. I appreciate you
Glad I could help!
Thanks for sharing the video Chris. The quiet roads and your choice of music brought back some great memories.
Thank you yes the music also brought back memories from my youth big time… Thanks for watching 🤘
What an exceptional video, congrats!! The late Johannes van der Walt was a radio announcer and when reading the weather forecast he did not say Sutherland but said 'Sidderland', there where you literally 'sidder van die koue' in Afrikaans.
Thank you 😂 makes sense about sidder its always cold there
Another really great video - really enjoyed the music and countryside - a lot of good memories - thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it appreciate the comment 🤘
Thanks Lewis appreciated 🤘
