    First time in the Dolomites was way back in 1994 on a Edelweiss Tour ( I am from San Francisco). Couldn't see a thing, low clouds & rain, but you felt something was surrounding you. Went back a year later on The Beach Tour, glorious sunshine, what a difference. Almost a religious experience. Overnite in Arabba, so had 2 days to explore the place. Spent a lot of time getting off the bike, finding a bench away from the crowds & taking it all in. Spectacular!!!! Thanks for taking us along on your adventure.

      @fuglbird Beach's Motorcycle Adventures is what I was referring to. Did a ride through Norway on my own many years ago, also checked out Sweden & Denmark . Great time. Check out Beach's, they offer some great trips through Europe, the best is The Classis Alpine Adventure. They have been doing tours since 1972, so they know all the great little out of the way roads.

That would be a wicked walk! Unfortunately these places in the winter are very, very harsh so it's nice to think of living out there but not very practical in the winter time.

I think every time you said "Wow" I had already said twice before you had! And yes Ewa, it certainly does look like a picture postcard..., a 3D picture postcard with you in the middle of it. It is not just riding so many twisties in quick succession that makes you tired, it is the constant concentration needed to safely navigate them, and at the same time, see a bit of those extrodinary views. Decathlon to the rescue... your back has been saved👍,the show can now continue as scheduled. Stay safe and vigilant.

      Hi bud welcome to the channel. We often forget to change the speedo. I always say that you should ride the appropriate speed. This means the number on your dash isn’t really relevant but riding safely is and ensuring you can always stop in the distance to which you can see. Don’t over think it, just go for it!

      @@ontheroadadventure Thanks guys.
      That's what I do now. Generally I'm the slower rider at the back of the pack but I'm OK with that. I have tried swapping to kph on the speedo and wonder why I then head too quickly into corners until the light bulb moment! 🤯. At 57 I'm conditioned to think I'm mph.
      Ride safe and look forward to more of your adventures.

    Have a look at a Thermarest lite cot bed, not cheap (there are plenty of cheaper alternatives), but great build quality and pretty comfy. Much better than an air bed, they pack small/light, perfect for bike trips.

    • @ontheroadadventure
      @ontheroadadventure  5 місяців тому

      It depends on your style, for an adventure bike consider the GS perhaps? I assume you have done what you can to make your bike fit you better? Maybe see how your wife feels bout riding her own? The Goldwing is a big bike, or there’s the big BMW K1600? Best thing to do is to test ride as many bikes as you can find and see what you like best.

    I've never, not once, in 45 years of Moto Camping phoned ahead for a campsite. My ratio of not getting in a campsite when just rocking up is around 1000/1

    • @ontheroadadventure

    There was a BBC Horizon programme years ago that analysed blokes peeing into a bowl rather than sitting on it (yes I know different to a hole in the ground!) and it showed the awful splashing that can’t really be seen but means the floor should be cleaned every time. Just saying…and not saying what I do either 😂

    The hole in the floor toilets are good. When you squat with your feet in the correct position on the pads you will poop down the hole every time! Also, your bum will be cleaner than with a conventional toilet. (You need less toilet paper). Don't be shy. Give them a chance!

    Squat toilet! Would have packed up and gone elsewhere. Revolting, unhygienic and sums up what they think of their customers. The health benefits purported for a squat toilet are crap. Pardon the pun. Far greater health risk from the inevitable filth all around.
