- Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
- February 15th, 2024 and day three of my one month motorcycle trip through New Zealand. I start my day with a little detour in the Tongariro National Park, riding up the volcano Mt. Ruapehu for a spectacular view of the volcanos. Continuing south, I ride through the scenic Turakina Valley and ended my day at a cozy little campsite. Join me on a perfect day on the bike!

I am an old man that rode for many years. Just saying that so you understand where I’m coming from please be careful and don’t get complacent the problem with motorcycles is that you can’t take anything for granted you can ride for 20 years and then one little mistake will put you in the hospital as itchy boots found out love you be safe ❤
Absolutely true. A motorcycle is a motorcycle.. You can’t be sure of anything. This unfortunate accident that happened to Norali is proof of this. There was nothing difficult on that road, but a mistake in attention led to serious injury.
Itchy boots 👍 it
Some people (including other motorcyclists) love to remind motorcyclists how dangerous motorcycles are. We know. No need.
@@jimzenglish1 Who are these 'we'? Truths need to be rethought and reminded.
Hopefully Noraly heals fast, beterschap schatje.
Stormy point lookout is on a road known as Vinegar Hill (State Highway 54) and is one of my favourite stretches of road in the Manawatu, alas I haven’t been there for a few years so it bought back pleasant memories, thanks.
I’m currently making my way through your motorcycle journey videos and I’m enjoying them a lot, safe travels.
Your presentation style is very enjoyable - calm, relaxing, show a lot of scenery - unlike other channels. Thank you!
From one stunning county, Norway, to another stunning country, New Zealand. 👍👍🏍🏍👍👍
Indeed 😍
The best is yet to come
The beautiful countryside you have shared with us is unbelievable.
I really love these videos. It's like I am riding along on the bike, just chilling, taking everything in, relaxed with a little smile on my face.
Thank you, glad you like it 😃 Love sharing all of this with you guys!
Funny coming across this video 😂
My Dad is the owner of Discovery Lodge, we always run to the window when we hear a grunty sounding motorbike driving in, that bike of yours looks quite distinctive so I remember seeing you dive in 😆
Thanks for staying at Discovery and glad to see you're enjoying New Zealand!
IT is what it is! What a calm spirit you are Runa. LOVE your music choice for "Mordor", so atmospheric for that grand scenery. Left, left, left, excellent mantra Runa.👍 Yes the loose gravel is great fun, foot down and sliding through those corners, just takes practice on a dirt bike Runa. Buy another sleeping bag, yes, you would have needed it. Those NZ green valleys and hills, so wonderful, great camera skills Runa.🤩🤩🤩🦘🦘
What a peaceful, relaxing ride. The countryside is blissful. I cannot think of anywhere else with such a positive vibe. Looking forward to the next episode of your adventure.
Absolutely gorgeous country. What an amazing adventure. Ride on 🏍️
I've ridden most of the roads in your first 2 nz videos, and all of northland too. Where you parked on Mt ruapehu, our grandmother used to take us there to play in the snow when we were kids. Good to see my homeland through another's eyes
A sleeping bag is an absolute must have in the South Island. Really appreciate your music choice, nice and chill just like NZ.
çok teşekkürler. hiç göremeyeceğimiz yerleri bizlere gösterdiğin için....Teşekkürler.....
How to ride dirt and gravel, shift your weight back a little, lean the bike slightly into the turn and steer in the opposite direction, the faster the more steer, start slow first but when you got it, it is so much fun, also builds your confidence when riding on a wet road
Nice places*, regards from Colombia.
Another stunning New Zealand ride Runa, nothing wrong with going slow as you get a better look at that awesome scenery👌
I saw Mordor!! one of my dream country to ride, I hope one day I will be there as well!
Thanks Runa for sharing this episode in New Zealand . Amazing landscapes et very beautiful scenery . Just hope that you have many nice things to discover along your journey 😉
As many have said before me your casual laid back manner is very soothing, yes that loose surface can be quite tricky, not as bad as sand but never the less requires a bit of concentration. The scenery is beautiful, very relaxing. Good luck keep going, look forward to seeing more of New Zealand, can see why so many Europeans fell in love with the place and made it their home.😊😊😊😊
Big Itchy fan, than you turned up in my algoritme, i guess YT knew i had some spare time.
Smart taking it slow on the gravel, you can enjoy the panorama's much more anyway.
Stay safe and veel plezier.
Heej, good to see you again! Beautiful vid again too 👍

5:09-6:10 JUST BEAUTIFUL RUNA JI, THE SCENIC IS JUST SPECTACULAR ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this marvellous episode.
👍🏻👍🏻 for your camera work and edit
Our compliments to your storyline and production on this. It is very inclusive and never gets boring. New Zealand looks great. Love the countryside.
great video Runa such incredible views .... just one suggestion I use for the DJI Mic is a USBC cable attach it to the camera then tuck the Transmitter into the pocket on the Jacket keeps it waterproof and then feed the cable up through the helmet strap and into the camera on the chin. I do this and it works great ..... just remeber to take out the USBC cable when you take of the helmet
I really like your videos,I feel I am with you
There r so many good roads and scenery that u missed with ur abbreviated trip. Any rider should allocate a month min to see NZ. Uve completely missed north of Auckland which has enough to keep u entertained for days. That said, ur compilation of ur trip is great. Cheers from a 75yr old regular rider
Total respect. I'm an overlander too. You put that story together so well.
Thank you, appreciate it! 😊
Lady rider with the best attitude, through various conditions you always have a great receptive attitude about what ever comes your way, thank you for that, where you are I’d love very much to explore such a land, I couldn’t get enough of your native land but thanks to you I get a real big smile seeing the wondrous places u share with us all. Keep exploring, I’m almost 70 and gearing up once again for our big trip, so back on 2 wheels soon enough, thank u again for sharing, be safe out there and always keep the sunny side up. Rob U.S.
Greetings from Silesia 😊
Thanks!
Thank you very much for the support! 🥰
hi . cold in your sleeping bed .keep your yogging trauser and sweater on . nice earea and hills and roads in n s .
Hu? Close to the Equator? I presume that you mean that we are close to the Antarctic which has a hole in the ozone layer above it. Yes I know what you are talking about, NZ is the worst place I have ever been to that is so very easy to get sunburned. I have worked in Africa, Middle East, Asia and Europe and nowhere is the danger of skin cancer like in the paradise of the South Pacific. When fishing the Tongariro River in July I got my bottom lip burned with just the reflection of the light from the river. My clothing covered me all except for my mouth! I have camped the South Island for a year, fishing and hunting, love this place. Cheers mate, Harera
You are doing a great job, like 360 from the back the lower thirds titles, and the maps integration where you are, your camping is fun. Ten camper are Cool most of the time. Maybe a liner for your sleeping bag might work. Everybody says they should travel like this but you are the one doing it. I am so proud of you. P.S. I really like your flag. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us.
👍 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The colors!! How gorgeous.....those roads looked fun!
Right?😍 So fresh and green, it was lovely! I heard and read many places that the NZ road standard was not great, but I didn’t find it problematic at all
Es increible verte tan sola en los viajes y a la vez tan acompañada por tus seguidores. Un abrazo desde España y te deseo que gastes muchos muuuuuuuchos neumaticos más. ¡ENORABUENA POR VIVIER EL SUEÑO DE MUCHOS! BRAVO👏
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I hope you can make the crossing to Australia after NZ and do the east coast trip from Melbourne to Cairns. You will want to stay for good!
Oh this is making me want to tour NZ again on my bike. Really enjoy how you edit and put your videos together. That tree is a Silver Poplar.
Thank you! That's the one 😃
See that, on the "right" (LEFT) side of the road...@9:29 LOL You're doing a GREAT job, Runa! The whole idea of driving on the left side really FLIPS my brain. 🤣😂🤣😂
Haha thank you! it took me a good while getting used to it 😂
I noticed you are using the action 3 as main vlogging camera and I guess you are using the dji wireless mic to attenuate the audio signal going to the action 3. I know for a fact that audio easily peaks on action 3 when motovlogging and the onboard gain setting is not enough to control the peaks on audio. If you can get the new 3.5mm audio adapter from dji it attenuates the signal significantly and is compatible with the action 3. No need to use the wireless transmitter and make the setup heavier than it should. Just plug the lav mic directly to the adapter. Hope it helps.
Beautiful episode with stunning views. Thanks
Thank you, glad you liked it 😃 it was a great day, getting back into the rhythm of riding and filming!
Helt nydelig Runa! Fantastisk landskap de har der. Fin komposisjon på alt. Fortsett sånn! 😊😊
Takk, Leif 😃 Aldri et kjedelig øyeblikk på de veiene, utrolig variert og flott fra start til slutt!
@@OffSheGoesADV Need to take Norwegian classes I guess lol
@@user-mn6sq3is4t I am attempting to learn Dutch so I can read Itchyboots book when I get it. So far it is easier than Swedish
Wow... Be Happy and Smile, simple words and yet so powerful ... Life it self , video 10 out 10 , love the way you complement that beautiful scenery.. Thanks 💐
Thank you very much! 😊
I can really relate to your "stay left, stay left" thinking. When I was probably your age I had a job in England for a year. Between driving a car and riding a motorcycle I was pretty confident in my " stay left" abilities. In a serious fast thinking situation every thing goes out the window. Your emergency reactions automatically revert to "go right, go right".
Haha exactly! It is so worked in to our muscle memory and unconscious mind, it takes a while to change it up!
Anathor day anathor beautiful episode ❤
Runa thanks so much for sharing it is beautiful there you are doing a great job !
thankyou for showing us some of those great back roads, as a KIWI I havernt riden those roads ,must do now.
thankyou Runa
It's beautiful land and I take a breath 🫁 my first life . More and more . Hi runa!!! Good life and good future
Awesome video! Beautiful scenery for sure. Yes, get something warmer, sleep is very important . Best!
Hi Runa Awesome Amazing scenery of the mountains with snow on them and volcanos 🌋 😊
👍Thanks Runa.. always a treat to watch your relaxing videos ! Beautiful scenery as always ! Looking forward to the next episode !....Please stay SAFE and UPRIGHT !
Love from Australia 🏍🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺
The views and scenery truly are one of a kind down there! You might have your fjords, but New Zealand sure knows how to create beautiful landscapes of their own sort. 👍
They sure do 😍 Great variation too, never a boring moment riding there! And their temperatures are in general a bit nicer than Norway too 😂 although that changes quickly too
@@OffSheGoesADV NZ one of the most beautiful countries along with Norway hope I can visit both
@@user-mn6sq3is4t Are the laws and government in New Zealand as crazy as Australia or better? It is just a question. Nothing offensive.
@@megamix1301 Australia has more strict laws than Kiwis I guess
niceish video Runish :))
Du machst wirklich so schöne videos. Du erzählst über deine Reise und über dich selbst. Es ist spannend und gleichzeitig möchte man dich einfach in den Arm nehmen .... Du lebst deinen Traum und das ist das Wichtigste! Eines Tages, irgendwo auf irgendeiner Reise, irgendwann laufen wir uns über den Weg und ich lade dich auf einen heißen Cappuccino ein.
Hab Spaß und bleib gesund. Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland
👍👏😊
Beautiful nature in New Zealand and quiet Gravel roads
Hi Runa,
Thanks for another awesome episode of that beautiful country. ❤
Safe travels and see you in the next one.
That cow be: yov! check out this girl. She going to stay with us 😂. Joke apart, Oh! god, Really watching your videos motivates me to become wanderer. Like telling myslef, there is a world out there that you never seen. Go and do some adventure. Keep it up.
Another beautiful video, thanks for sharing.
Beautiful landscapes. And it seems like a super peaceful place. Have a good trip there.
Lovely scenery, great videography, thanks for sharing, Runa 🌄
Being allergic to dogs sounds annoying 😥
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Incredible vistas Runa. I forget how lucky I am to be able to ride around this wonderful landscape.
I can relate to that, coming from Norway! It’s easy to forget or overlook the beauty when you’re surrounded by it every day 😊 Next episode you might recognize a man I met outside a grocery store on my first day on the South Island 😁
@@OffSheGoesADV 😅
Fantastico video gracias por compartir,y esperando el proximo.saludos.
brilliant scenic views, good roads, and a great video. I am always looking forward to the next video instalment 😊❤❤
Thank you Gordon 😃 It was a great first full day on the road - it’s amazing how varied the scenery is!
So deeply relaxed this video, great landscapes! You should buy a new sleeping bag no matter what! Ride safe and take care.
Being quite new to your channel I really enjoyed this video. Can't wait for the next episodes!
Thank you, and welcome aboard 😃
Love your videos. Keep up the great work
Ha ha my favourite late lunch! Pie and a Fanta!! Delicious ❤❤
it sure was 😁
Awesome
Hi, I'm from Argentina, I love your videos, the images, the places and the way you tell about your trips. The first video I saw was [S5-E27], from then on I couldn't stop watching the others
Thank you very much! 😊
Beautiful country great video ride safe
On the way back up ,definitely go via New Plymouth ,there is some amazing country in that area.
Great scenery’s Runa, 👌🏼🤩
Lovely relaxing video in stunning New Zealand, I believe the trees are Canadian Maples, hence the national flag of another stunning country. Nice to see you on the ‘proper’ side of the road, I’m English😉 Got to love a coo and get yourself a three season sleeping bag, I’m old so I hate being cold…
Thank you, Ian 😃 It looks like the tree was a silver poplar actually, but the silver maple looks stunning too!
😍❤👏👌👍
👍👏😊💯🚲
Hi Runa: I had not seen much of New Zealand before. It reminds me of some areas here in the states. There seems to be beautiful place where ever you go in the world. Different but beautiful.
Spot on! All countries probably have their own kind of beauty 😊
Incredible views and nice roads
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷
If there was any product named "On the left side", it could had been a really nice sponsor of the New Zealand series.... 😂
Hahaha 😂
Nice
Beautiful Country and great blog
Excellent here
Impressive ride..
So happy to come along for this ride in my favorite country! But I fear you missed the "Forgotten World Highway" (Highway 43). It's a great motorcycle road and you were so close! Perhaps next time. Looking forward to the next chapter!
Unfortunately can't cover everything in a month, I'll definitely have to come back some day!
Beautiful ⭐️
Thank you, glad you liked it 😁
Nice! 👌Unique landscape 👍😊
And it just kept getting better 😍
Me alegra verte, no entiendo el inglés pero leo los subtitulos.
Siento tu alergia y te ordeno que compres un buen saco de dormir😂 no pases frío.
Aventurera y chica guapa 😘
Yo también tengo una moto que acaba de hacer 1000 km.
Un beso desde España ❤
Hello Runa, welcome to NZ and thank you for showing us old armchair Kiwis parts of the country we've not seen even though we live here. Can I ask why when travelling over gravel roads you stand a lot on your pedals.
Is it for comfort (like a jockey using their legs like as shock absorbers) or for greater stability and control thus safety?
I hope you continue to enjoy the ride and our country😊
Hi, Darrel! Glad you enjoy it 😃 And that's right, it's mostly for stability and better control of the bike. Being able to move the weight of your body around, to help the bike out a bit.
Have you considered a sleeping bag liner? You can get them in varying degrees of warmth. They also save you laundering your bag as often. Looks beautiful there.
Yup, I did have a thermo liner! And merino wool leggings and shirt, I just get cold so easily unfortunately 😅
Bom dia amiga Noruega. Itchy boots. Holland sofreu acidente tanzania. Não sei dizer se foi ela sua inspiração para pilotar motocicletas. Feliz dia linda❤😊😊😊. Norsk folks BEAUTIFUL

Nice views!
