The most common place to visit in Germany is called “Ausfahrt” - it’s signposted at every junction on the autobahn. Strange though, I lived in Germany for nine wonderful years, but never managed to find Ausfahrt - how odd?
I did a similar trip, off at ijmuiden then to Kassel in Germany then Kassel to Berlin. Gave me two manageable days I could enjoy then the madness started when I went onto Czech Republic and Poland 👍😉
Well done, Saffy, enjoyed the first leg of the journey through Germany, such a noble cause you are supporting with your adventure, sincerely hope you have a blast doing it. Just go with the flow and not set to many targets and deadlines, and you will enjoy it so much more by doing so. Thank you.
Hi Staffy. I expect you have recorded more video than your showing. So perhaps when your journey is over you might consider putting a few more vids together. You know the stuff, cruising, sunsets mountain views etc?
What a drag sleeping on the ground ... Lol ... Happens ... Freeways look the same all over the world ... That freeway shot around 8:15 looks just like the Ventura Freeway through Studio City California ... LOL
A small portable 12v compressor would be a good buy saffy, you'd need a 12 waterproof socket wiring in your bike to run it & best done with the engine running so you don't flatten the battery, you could use it to top your tyres up & blow up air matresses as they usually come with the adaptors for them too.
I see your target is getting there Staffy, well done! I just love cruising moterways, well not now so much especially the M25, grrrrrr! Safe riding till next week Staffy and sleep tight 😊👌.
I use a little dinky backpacking pump that works really great ... However, many of the newer mats are designed to be able to use the Pack-Bag, for the pump if it has the adjoining nozzle ...
Seeïng your videos is like watching a comedy :) You are tooooo cute, always seems to have fun and there's always something funny happening on your traveldays. I love your channel and enjoying it too much. I'm hooked :) Stay safe, stay warm and never forget your famous words: "It's all about biking"!
I think Saffy’s an absolute loony and thus really cute, bringing out my naturally protective side. That camping mat thing and not recognising where there’s clearly a river ferry - haa haa haa, she’s hilarious!
I am confused and surprised Saffy that you wanted to get through Germany without enjoying the wonderful country. Have you a destination in mind. My other concern is the weather, as we head into winter and you in your tent.😊👍
I'm watching every vid of this trip & enjoying them greatly. I did notice some straps hanging off your bike & blowing in the wind. Not ideal for obvious reasons. Stay safe! And a little trick I do for using toll roads is I have my right pocket (in The UK) with plenty of change & just ask the person in the booth to just help themseves to the money. That way I don't have all the faff of removing gloves, etc.
You are doing well and the weather is being kind to you. Take every opportunity to eat something and every opportunity for a wee, that's my advice but I'm a lot older than you. 😂 ride safe and I'm looking forward to seeing Poland.
I'm not jealous at all! With regard to the sleeping mat, does it's bag act as the pump? Check the bag for a valve, if it has, plug that on to the mat and blow it up with that.
Maybe you phone would have confirmed that the gps didn't lead to a dead end. They do lead a lot of people into trouble. Glad the little ferry showed up before you road away. But then cash is king on the road in some situations. Glad your fundraiser is doing well Saffy.
Saffy X truly inspirational wonderful lady you've become ,well done 👍😁 have a great week X take care X stay safe xx Cliff 🍀💕😘🙏🍀oh I've started using preppers for the army ration packs if I not already said can't remember X once again take care 🍀🙏
To be honest, it's one of those things, if you ate them in your real life, you'd think they were foul, when it's 9pm and you're tired, cold and hungry, it's the best thing in the world
Amazing videos as always Ms Sprocket! Keep doing what you're doing and you'll get there no problemo! Are the shots from the fields stock footage or did you bring a drone to take those ? much love xx
So odd that Saffy makes her coffee and tea, stirring it around in a mess tin after using her jet boil; why not just pour the boiled water into a light, titanium mug or suchlike, with either instant coffee or a teabag and then some milk, you know like normal folks. She’s so loopy, she cracks me up, just so cute.
So the real question is, 🤔 what bike will you be buying in the future now that you have done a proper real hard-core trip away? Will you be sticking with the SV and getting a decent screen for it, or will you now look at a medium sized adventure bike that will suit your needs more. Look forward to seeing what you do in regards to upgrading your bike or replacing it with something new.
@@SaffySprocket I'm sure you'll find the right bike, never know, maybe a manufacturer will give you a longterm loan bike to review, drop CF moto or reiju a line, they have some nice cheap bikes coming out in the adventure market.
Stay safe Saffy. It must be very tiring doing long distance touring on a bike without a fairing at this time of year. Just wondering, how do you get the aerial views? You don't mention having a Drone.
i suppose all bikers are living like hillbillies when away on european travels, but ive never made tea in a a mess tin! running around the uk isnt the as europe, ive just recently covered 8000miles throughout europe solo travelling stay off motorways thats not an adventure and increasingly boring... ...
I Tour Europe All the time in all weathers I don’t understand how you make it look so uncomfortable and difficult, it isn’t difficult and shouldn’t be uncomfortable.
You do amazing things Saffy... Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. You are an inspiration 😊♥️
Thank you so much!

What a great trip you’re on! I’ve just ordered a Bagster seat for my SV with the plan on hitting Europe next spring. Keep the content coming!
I've been eying up a bagster, I have the tank cover, haven't found a bag to go in yet!
Give yourself a huge pat on the back your doing a great job for a great cause,

Your doing awesome Saffy, ride safe
Thank you so much for your support 🥰🏍🥰

Great video, looks very cold, keep making plenty of rest stops to keep warm and ride safe on them road's, looking forward to next week video 🏍️

Fab post Saffy. Ur editing is really great 👍 Can’t wait for next instalment -suspense is killing me! 😂. Ride safe 🤙
🤣🤣🤣 I think the next video is the best video tbh
I see your target is getting there Staffy, well done! I just love cruising moterways, well not now so much especially the M25, grrrrrr! Safe riding till next week Staffy and sleep tight 😊👌.
Nice video, And really like your idea of riding 0900 to 1800 which I'm going to adopt next year on my tours as it makes sense 👍 Stay safe and enjoy 😎
Alles ist gut en der hause Fraulein!
🥰
Day after Day you're becoming a Expert Travellor. I have enjoyed the Video. Keep Fit and enjoy your Tours🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🎥
One day at a time 😅😅😅
Great Saffy🤙🤙
Thank you so much
hello good morning Saffy I hope you have enjoyed this weekend in my city Valencia 🙏 moto GP greetings
Valencia is a beautiful city 🥰🥰🥰
Ok 👌👍
'If we had too many rules where would we be? Germany!' 👍👏😎

The important thing is to stay motivated. Keep on making the latest content, I'm always waiting for your new videos travel Vlog camping
I see you've discovered the cliffhanger and are making full use of it. Ha ha. Stay awesome.
Ahaha I have to divide the videos up somewhere
I am confused and surprised Saffy that you wanted to get through Germany without enjoying the wonderful country. Have you a destination in mind. My other concern is the weather, as we head into winter and you in your tent.😊👍
I use to live in Germany :) so I am familiar with the country and also It was because I was going to go to the black forest on the way back
Thanks for your reply Saffy, that explains everything. Good luck to you .😊👍🏍🏍
Miserable Trolls need to get a life. You're doing a great job Saffy. Ride Safe .xxx
🥰🥰🥰🥰 thank you so much
I'm watching every vid of this trip & enjoying them greatly.
I did notice some straps hanging off your bike & blowing in the wind. Not ideal for obvious reasons. Stay safe!
And a little trick I do for using toll roads is I have my right pocket (in The UK) with plenty of change & just ask the person in the booth to just help themseves to the money. That way I don't have all the faff of removing gloves, etc.
Glad you got that part out of the way. Not much fun for you. I wondered if there was a ferry.
All fun and games from here on in!
Nice one
Stay safe ❤️
Thank you 🥰
You are doing well and the weather is being kind to you. Take every opportunity to eat something and every opportunity for a wee, that's my advice but I'm a lot older than you. 😂 ride safe and I'm looking forward to seeing Poland.

Glad the little ferry showed up before you road away. But then cash is king on the road in some situations.
Glad your fundraiser is doing well Saffy.
Keep rolling! Be careful - don't let the milk shakes stop you!
Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
They're not expensive or difficult to fit but touring without a screen makes it a lot more tiring than it needs to be. Hope you enjoyed the Moto GP 👍
Saffy X truly inspirational wonderful lady you've become ,well done 👍😁 have a great week X take care X stay safe xx Cliff 🍀💕😘🙏🍀oh I've started using preppers for the army ration packs if I not already said can't remember X once again take care 🍀🙏
The army ration packs are pretty ace tbf
@@SaffySprocket yep there sorted and only £16 a box so pretty reasonable 👍
Are life flights expensive in the UK as they are tens of thousands of dollars in the USA!
Saffy and a late arrival at the campsite seems a very common occurance. How is the ration food?
🙃 one day I'll be on time, I swear, ration good was food to be fair. Its nice to have a warm meal and nit have to think about organising it
@@SaffySprocket the one from last week's vlog looked quite nice.
To be honest, it's one of those things, if you ate them in your real life, you'd think they were foul, when it's 9pm and you're tired, cold and hungry, it's the best thing in the world
Camera angle from the back of the bike on the moving ferry was weird! How much was the toll?
It was suppose to be 3 euros bur I only had 2 euros so he let me off 🤣
Hi Saffy. I like your 360 footage. What accessories did you buy for the 360 camera? And how do you mount it to your bike?
This one was a the c clamp bug I just upgraded to the x3 with the two new motorcycle accessory kits, yet to try them out though
@@SaffySprocket thank you.
Amazing videos as always Ms Sprocket!
Keep doing what you're doing and you'll get there no problemo!
Are the shots from the fields stock footage or did you bring a drone to take those ?
much love xx
I have to say milk first is all wrong. Great video Saffy :)
😂😂😂

I'm undecided but I've been shopping for quite some time 🥰🥲

Stay safe Saffy. It must be very tiring doing long distance touring on a bike without a fairing at this time of year. Just wondering, how do you get the aerial views? You don't mention having a Drone.
Hey! I have a DJI Mavic Mini :) I've mentioned it a few times in other videos so don't bring it up every time!
@@SaffySprocket . Oh Ok. I promise to pay more attention 😊
The new rule regarding riding hours is good. Always safety first. the blokes on the ferry didn't seem happy in their work.
Safroon, welcome to Germany
Dankeshon :D
@@SaffySprocket gerne😁❤️
Good rules.
😅 shame I didn't stick to them for very long
What a cool video ... the music on the ferry was the bomb ... BTW ... do you speak any other languages ???
No! Just poor attempts 😂😭☠️
There is no more Czechoslovakia but there is Czech Republic and Slovakia 😅
😅 I was born an old woman
@@SaffySprocket
No you are still young I was stopping to check my age is not important how many spring's you have it is how are you feeling.
Yer look for a sign saying fahre ye 👍
😂
😎👍☕
May i ask , do you get lonely at all ? You looked lonely on the ferry . Waiting all week to see how you are getting on 💚
Nope :D I grew up in a big family so I enjoy the peace and quiet 🤣🤣🤣
You OK? You looked really worried/frightened at the start. Grandad mode kicked in🙃
Wir hätten uns kurz treffen können :-) Lieben Gruß aus Berlin, Ralf
🥰
I was surprised to hear you say " hillbilly " I thought we in the USA were the only ones blessed with hillbillies!
It wouldn’t be Saffy if you turned up on time now would it 🤷♂️😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 fashionably late, for all of Paris week
Saffy are you sending messages via Telegram ??
No
@@SaffySprocket potential scamming going on via Telegram, on a couple of biker channels I know
River Boar ??
12 years living and working in Germany and I see the typical German hospitality still is non existent.
ahahaha I moved to Germany from NW England when I was 18, it was a culture shock at the time that people weren't very chatty
@@SaffySprocket They'll never change..I'm taking my FJR1300 over for Christmas and New Year to visit my son who still lives there with his mum.
When I see your bike so loaded up I always think you look less like being on tour and more like you're escaping a war zone with all your belongings.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Unfortunately this series is one commercial after another for items strategically-placed..Also too much focus on complaining.
What do you mean?
i suppose all bikers are living like hillbillies when away on european travels, but ive never made tea in a a mess tin! running around the uk isnt the as europe, ive just recently covered 8000miles throughout europe solo travelling stay off motorways thats not an adventure and increasingly boring... ...
Making tea in a mess tin is really good because it has a huge surface area, which means it cools faster and you can drink it straight away :D
I Tour Europe All the time in all weathers I don’t understand how you make it look so uncomfortable and difficult, it isn’t difficult and shouldn’t be uncomfortable.
You did say Not Public Funded 😳🥲
They rely completely on charity donations 🥲
I'll be honest with you, I seriously don't know why you would want to be riding in Europe in winter 🫤 pass!
I like a challenge:D
@@SaffySprocket there is a fine line between challenges and misery 🥴
I wasn't the kinda kid who was colouring neatly inside of them 🤣🤣🤣🤣
