Such an inspirational video, was a little emotional at the end! Thank you for the content - you make me aspire to these adventures! I think I saw you questioning the direction or future content of the channel in another video - this was perfection
Superb video. The old right foot was tappin along to the beltin tunes. I’m Glad you did that, I’d have no chance in my camper. lol. Glad I’ve found this super channel. 🍺🍺🍺👍
I live in West Yorkshire above Halifax in Calderdale and the countryside is awesome for some off road vehicles like yours. I drive a T6.1 purely for work but someday hope you get. 4x4 Transporter bug out vehicle. I love all your videos, awesome viewing. Happy New Year Buddy.
Superb footage especially in that weather. We have to admit to being fair weather campers as we have the two dogs it’s never fun when they are wet. We use a Ste free removable bed which pulls over the collapsing bench seat and no pop top. The mattress isn’t great so we use a 2cm thick self inflating topper, the difference is incredible. Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for entertaining us this year Geordie,Kate, Dylan and Dutch x
Will definitely look at the meet, 2cm not 20 😂 you don’t need much to make a massive difference in the quality of your nights sleep. Is the meet dog friendly as we don’t go anywhere without our boys ? They are very cute and friendly ?
@@urbanarkoverland I struggled getting up hardknott pass in the lakes the other week spinning my back end of my transporter and rolling backwards and then I watched you tackling that this road so made me look a bit daft
I must say the UAO table does look the nuts, just can’t justify the £399 for one at the moment with everything else I need to do to my van 🫣 build quality looks amazing compared to others like this I’ve seen so one for the ever expanding shopping list of bits 😮
@ I’m not knocking you on quality & would love one of these, it’s just allocating the funds in the right place & not getting ahead of myself before I need it when other bits are required on my van 👍
@@richardbarry8399 sorry mate. Ye I a realised. I didn’t get that impression from your original message don’t worry. I could tell it was positive vibes for sure.
Great video, only problem is you’ve thrown a spanner in the works with telling us about that camp, my wife is in Spain that weekend and I’m supposed to be doing my bathroom but the bathroom might be put on hold just don’t tell my wife lol.
Loved this and Rich's version too. Can’t wait to see what you do with a T7, is the plan to go full Swamper again? Once you’ve gone off road in your van there’s no going back!
Great Vlog, inspired me to go check these lanes out tomorrow. You should do a trip to the lakes too. Does your van have diff lock? Do you turn TC off when on the lanes? I don’t like dropping any lower than 20psi but usually find ~26 is good balance. Any plans to do any lanes during the winter camp out?
Seeing you guy’s do this & you in a Transporter makes me wish I’d waited a 4Motion T6.1 & not being impatient in placing my order when I did :-( also great choice in music in your UA-cam videos 👍 have thought of putting a play list up on Spotify that your followers can listen along whenever they want 🤔
Great video, awesome to see the van going through its paces. Do you experience any poptop creaking when doing your off-roading. I have an Austops professionally installed but it creaks like mad over rough Terrain 😞
@ haha its driven me mad, I took the headliner out and pumped silaflex anywhere possible, definitely improved but not possible to do that everywhere! Happy new year👌
Heya! Keen to try some simple laning at some point. Just got my Sprinter 4x4 (AWD). Some bits and bobs to get before I start but, do you know of any apps that show tracks by difficulty? Any advice on finding them? Would the "Big man" from Bug out know (actually I'm sure he would)? Thanks :-)
@ ? You talked about the ceiling light and I would like to know the exact name. Seems like a decent piece of gear! BTW: Your comments about the Yeti cup is really funny and recognizable! I just hold my breath while you tried to take a sip just at the moment you hit some small boulders and the van started to shake like crazy! Luckily no toasted nuts! 😂
@ it was the format of the question mate. Re read it and ask if you would repay that with effort etc. Want community spirit that’s all. Yeti cups the best. Think that drink still hot ha
@@urbanarkoverland I don’t see a problem here. I see a lot of other questions, also without the “please” and “thanks”. Not only here but also on other channels. First time I get this comment… UA-cam is not suited to post long comments, so a lot of users post “telegram” style, which is completely understandable when you can only see 4 lines of your comment on a mobile device. Online is also different than real life. You don’t see emotions. I didn’t yell (capitals) and I wasn’t impolite, it was just a short question like so many others.
@ no problem at all. Do check out the comments below. Hi mate. Great vid. What’s…….? Lived the vid mate….. Awesome stuff…. This isn’t short format media. Took 2 days to edit it. I answer every question on here. But manners takes and costs nothing. Thank you for watching. 👍🏻
Having grown up in the African bush and only seeing an asphalt road at age 12, watching people in yhe UK getting excited about finding a road without asphalt is hilarious.
Thanks for coming along.
Iv already got some more lanes for you to try and thanks again for all the angles.

The music worked brilliantly.
Respect.

@ you would have to ask. I assume so. So many bring dogs
Watched your muckers version of this trip, very good watch also but no mention of any RV at end of Jan in his so keep us all posted.

Amazing video mate, van looks mint too 👌
Cheers matey
Always surprises me that transporter dude. Very noiiiiice

For the one percent you use if this way it’s a luxury

Just wow😳. I couldn’t take my T5 on that as I’d be way to scared of getting stuck & rescue would be a big problem. Merry Christmas
