  • The tenth installment of my 5000 mile solo road trip to the Balkans on board the mighty BMW R1250 GS Adventure.
    In this episode, the selfish rant continues as I escape Split and head for the Bosnian Border.
    Comment "Mouth Job" if you read this.
    Permission to Torque is a Mental Health movement set up to show others that you "get it" by displaying a discrete symbol for others to take comfort in. Its not about sitting around in a circle feeling sorry for yourself, its about shared experience and getting out there to find out what makes us happy - this is the aim of my trip and why I am sharing it on UA-cam, the good days and the inevitable bad ones too.
    I hope you enjoy the journey with me and find it at least vaguely useful! :)

    This almost feels like a return to the first videos I watched that got me hooked on you channel Chris… Except it was obviously never 37 deg in Roehampton! 😂 The honesty is actually really refreshing in todays world of perfectly polished turds that social media would have us believe is the norm. Life doesn’t go perfectly (if it did it would probably get pretty dull and boring) but it’s the trials, challenges and the low points that make the highs seem that much better!… Dealing with issues of anxiety with someone in my family at the moment, I’m really enjoying watching you take on and beat your personal challenges through this series. Looking forward to the rest of it! 👍

    Hotel prices during the summer of 2022 were absolutely insane! Places like Croatia and Greece used to be inexpensive but now you can have a cheaper Vacation in South of France or Italy. One of the youtubers posted a video of the Greek Island prices (hotels, restaurants, beach bars), it is sickening. Traveling used to be fun, but not anymore. Airports are packed, planes are packed, service is terrible everywhere you go. If you pay the $ and get a decent place and pleasant service it is one thing, but nowadays you get screwed on both ends.

    If you paid for the crap Hotel room on your credit card, initiate a charge back on it and let the credit card company fight it out for you.

    Chris, I’m sure we all appreciate the ‘warts and all’ production and as reminder that we all have shitty days. However when these situations happen to me I just try to remember how lucky I am. Rather than focussing on your problems if you try to reframe your perspective a little, it can help a lot to your mental state. You’re probably in the top 2% of earners globally, tall white male (and still with hair!) with lots of opportunities, and yesterday you rode an absolutely stunning coastal road.. etc etc. Some people have such bad anxiety they’ll never have the courage to swing a leg over a bike let alone ride abroad. I’m not having a dig as we’ve all been there on a shitty day- just try to remember you’re a whole lot luckier than someone working a 20 hour day in an Indian sweatshop for example. Next time give it a try and I hope your problems seem a little bit smaller. It works for me. Chin up!

    Did you read the reviews of the hotel?
    Perhaps that would have given you a hint as what to expect.
    Split is a large town, and can vary a lot.
    Plus, it's Summer, high tourist season, so one can expect some of that shit.
    Gets pretty crowded during Summer, no doubt.
    You should give it another chance, at a different hotel, and maybe during "shoulder" season too.
    The Riva or the seafront has some nice restaurants for snacks, and good food, plus the walk there is pleasant.

    Sometimes having a good rant to ones self is very cathartic. When I split up with my ex I filmed a few vids whilst driving to and from work (weirdly, it started out as a rant about the utter shit that was the GoPro8).

    Just go with the flow and let go. I am sure you can enjoy yourself. Maybe drop the agenda and go where ever your motorcycle feeling guides you to
