    during my Norway trip of this season, every single morning was like that.... the coffee movivated me to continue riding thru downporing rain... and more rain... and much more rain.... El Niño....

      I can understand that this coffee thing feels repetitive for some, and yes.... for me it is like a morning routine that set's the day and can turn every morning into a great day. It is so damn underrated. Stop, take your time and enjoy that little moment every morning, and you will see that your day becomes 10x better. ☕️

    You need a centerstand or a Scott oiler setup. The mosquitos are more than tough. Sometime a thick white frost is welcome packing up. I get a red ring around the top of my collar and the bottom of my helmet. Sometimes even more pleasant are mosquitoes crawling and biting inside your helmet while you ride. I love the north country and have learned to tolerate them somewhat. Tough. TS your vids are at a new level of good, really good. Your efforts are paying off in quality of content and presentation. Good job my Nordic ADV friend. I share them. I hope it helps your channel grow. A click of positivity. Beautiful country. Nice cabin for the night. Many fix their pasta the same way. I don't I like a flash boil. But both ways work. Presta, tomato sauce?

    • @tshansen
      @tshansen  11 місяців тому

      Thank you Sir, i really do appreciate it.... feel like a broken record here 😂 But a center stand is not good for me when riding offroad, I normally don't lube my chain, but every now and then I give it some transmission oil when it starts to rattle. This trail jack is made so I can take of the front or the rear wheel. It takes a minute or two extra, but I can live with that. Normally the bugs stay away the moment you start riding faster than walking speed. Really glad to hear my videos is evolving and are great to watch. This is something I find great pleasure in doing, and always nice to hear I'm heading in the right direction. And I'm a firm believer that quality, content and presentation is what makes a different in the long run. Have a great day sir. Thank you for this ☕️

    Hey Thomas, loved the video mate! Here’s a quick tip to get even better tasting coffee. Place the filter in the GSI and run some hot water over the paper filter prior to putting the beans in. Dispose the water from the mug, and proceed as normal. That will get rid of the ever so slight paper taste that the filters give to the coffee. It’s a small difference but a connoisseur like you will appreciate.

    Frigging fantastic video. Man, everything over there seems so civilized, even the gravel roads seemed groomed. Over here is way more raw, and at camp, you are always looking over your shoulder for wildlife that may be interested in your camp. Why not use mosquito repellant? I always carry it with me on my bike. Although our summers lately have been hot and dry, so very little of an issue, unless near water. Love that cabin you stayed in, amazing. I'm building out my T7 this winter, exhaust, suspension (done), fuel tank, tail, grips -- the list is very long. and $$....That is such a cool part of the world, I feel my stress leaving my body as watch...again, great vid!🍻

I normally bring with me something you can screw on the gas canister. called Thermacell... these works really good with the mosquitos over here, but I forgot It at home. I never dream of this situations so late in season over here.
      that is the best winter activities. Can't wait to hear how that goes. I'm doing some minor upgrade to the T7 myself. I want a new fuel map, change the levers to smaller two fingers and some other minor things. You need to come visit us one day mate. 🤩

      Well the repellent you can buy here in Norway are so environmentally great it wont work for anything other than smell. And that is a combination of wiper wash fluid and citrus. A Thermacell normally works good, but I forgot to pack it, because I had no dream it would be this bad so late in season. I see many people do the same, with the trail stands. Absolutely genius to do that or a old crutch 🙌🏻

Luktet ekstremt dårlig og var nok grunnen til mye av myggen ja. De lokale som bodde på campingen der hadde aldri opplevd slike tilstander før. Jeg hadde jo ingen anelse om at det skulle bli så gale, såpasss sent på på sesongen. Så derfor pakket jeg ikke med meg noe til slike tilstander. La igjen thermacel hjemme også. Tabbe!

    Hey Thomas, love the video as usual, however I said I wouldn't just shower you with praise.... So I've got a question/comment: it's extremely common these days to see UA-cam footage (and other social media video footage) jump directly from edit to edit without any attempt to hide the edit point - specifically when the subject is speaking directly to camera. Hell, even Sterling Noren has started doing it! This isn't something that we see in cinema, nor in television traditionally, but it seems to have become acceptable on UA-cam and elsewhere. In this Episode I noticed you did it at the 1:15 mark, but a couple of seconds later you did a traditional cut to B-roll (the cobweb)... so this would suggest you have enough B-roll to play with, but you are deliberately making jump cuts. I'm curious to know why you wouldn't try to hide the edit point (I assume it's an edit point)? [Apologies for asking you to explain this on behalf of all UA-camrs!!!!]

    • @tshansen
      @tshansen  10 місяців тому +1

      I think this has become acceptable on UA-cam because of the short attention span we have. and one of the reason I do it because flow in audio is more important than flow in video/pictures. And since English is my second language, I have periods where I stutter, miss spell or just say stuff that I recapture a little bit later. And there is no b-roll at the time I feel is correct to overlay when I'm talking about this subject. When I'm on trips like this I try to edit as chronological as possible so you have a feel for the day and how it goes by (if that make sense)
      And there is maybe an other reason for it as well that I don't think about., it feels more human and not so polished? It is a great question I really don't have a good answer to on the top of my head. 👏🏻 Thank you, appreciate that. Would love much more of these kind of questions in the comment section 🙌🏻

Noen områder filmer jeg mye, for at det er visuelle ting å ta med, andre plasser filmer jeg lite. Jeg er nok mer bevisst på dette enn jeg tror selv, men jeg tenker ikke veldig over det der å da (om det gir mening) Mye av historien blir ofte til når jeg sitter hjemme å redigerer også.
