    As for tyres, I'm really surprised you haven't gone for full winters given the amount of time you are spending at such low temps and the amount of snow and ice you are driving in.

    • @truebluetravellers
      @truebluetravellers  9 місяців тому +1

      I spoke to a few people who live in Norway and they said if we were doing pure road driving then they recommend full winter tyres rather than the all terrains, but as we often go in unploughed soft snow for park ups the deep tread on the all terrains would be better suited for that 👍, I think the A T, the full winters, and studded tyres all have a purpose and are good for different conditions just trying to work out what’s best for our trip 👍👍👍

    Honestly, I cannot wait for Saturdays to come along to get my fix. And even hubby is now watching with me. We were discussing what makes your videos so special. And I've come to the conclusion that you guys have just exactly the right balance. The right amount of beautiful scenery, honest dialogue, dirty humour, nerdiness and information. Not to mention the craziness! It's the perfect mix and balance. The ending this week was priceless!!! I was killing myself laughing!!!If I had to find something to criticise, it would be that I'd love your videos to be longer. Could watch your videos for hours tbh, but 1/2 hour ones would be awesome, but will happily watch your 20minute videos instead. Keep em coming, but only as long as you're enjoying making them. Long may it last.

    Good point about rear wheel drive. Had that argument for 40 years up here in Scotland when we get a big snow dump. The vast majority of cars are now front wheel drive and useless on ice and snow. Old time cars with a cement bag in the boot and off you go, no need for winter tyres.

    The grip test is something I do too. Fun fact, winter tyres are called 'studless tyres' (or the Japanese version of the word which is sutadoresu) here as stud tyres became illegal from the winter of 1990-1991. I arrived in 1991 and I had tyres with all of the studs removed.
    Finland is absolutely beautiful. Many areas of Japan get heavy snowfall like this and the trees with all of the snow on them are just like what you saw. It is breathtaking, no matter how many times you see it. Some parts of Hokkaido are the only places in Japan where the temperature can drop to -40C and Japan is further south than the British Isles.
    Loved the last scene - John, you are a nutter. A brave nutter though and a good sport!!

      Studded tires are illegal in many countries, mainly in those that doesn't get that much snow, like Germany.

    You two have really made me want to go over there and experience all this myself. Jon has also convinced me that jumping naked face first into the snow, is something I will give a miss. Great video guys. I would probably spend half my time in those stores though, it would be my version of Disney Land.

    Motorists have a duty of care to each other in Finland, so to pass someone who is in difficulty is illegal and you can be prosecuted. Motonet is very popular, plus people make their own exhaust too, usually for sound! Enjoy Finland! 😊

    The one nice part about -40, is that there’s no need to covert between Celsius and Fahrenheit. We definitely had some cold snaps here in Wisconsin recently, but the windchills haven’t hit -40 yet here. Loving your Nordic adventures.
