The final day in Goa. Breakfast, a last ride on the Royal Enfield, finding a new beach and I share my final thoughts on India.

@@O-G-zd4gb 2-3 northern states take almost all the population. goa and all other southern states are low to mildly populated relative to India. Thats why most of the tourists who do the quite over-travelled delhi-taj mahal-Rajasthan route face one the most populated places of India, and thus the uninformed bikkering about people being too close to each in markets spread, and the photos used by foreign media, of india which are mostly of those parts of the country also dont do much justice.

Hi Freddie, 5 years back I had the privilege of calling Goa my home for 6 months and looking back at it feels less to explore the whole of goa within that time span....most of my discoveries were just chance encounters that I stumbled upon on my bike be it capturing bioluminesence at midnight at Sinquerim to the Caves of Querim to the clean roads of Chorao and Divar islands to this place which you showed in this episode which I reckon are the northern cliffs of Anjuna right besides Hilltop goa...have some fond memories from my time there...glad that you enjoyed your time there...and I wish you come back some other time for more because goa never ceases to surprise you.

Precisely because there are not many rules you could live life without a care in the world and do whatever you want especially if you have some money. Certainly not for everyone though!!

To be honest, India would not be high on my bucket list for precisely this reason. I'd be pissed off the whole time their. It's hard enough to watch this on a video.

I even spent a short while working for the Royal Enfield dealership in South Goa in 2014 - 15 and it was around this time we got wind of the concept RE was planing. Therefore, viewing your video on RE's Garage Cafe was extra special. Thank you for this wonderful Goa series and looking forward to what you have to air in future.

I've been every winter for the last 20 years .For guaranteed winter biking in decent weather. Regarding the lack of people. A well known British tourist company ripped off several local hotels and they will no longer deal with them. This has dramatically reduced Brits staying in the area you were. Secondly the Russians seem to be far less present over the last two years. And finally the holiday season is Nov to Mar ,so you are right at the end of it. Look forward to seeing Sri Lanka as that's a new place for me. Safe travels.

I really love music of following places in India: Kerala, Goa, West Bengal and Mizoram. I have a playlist of 45 Goan songs I like. Even though Mizoram is part of India it feels like a foreign country. The youth there don't speak Hindi/Urdu and they speak Mizo. Their English is slightly better than Koreans. Nobody honks or jumps lanes and the cars stop for pedestrians. Their music is excellent and it sounds like US music of 1970s. My favorite Mizo songs from various years are following: 1) Kimkima: I zun ngaih (2019) 2) Sangtei Khuptong and K Hminga: Awm lo tala (2020) 3) Cassettes: E Khai (2021) 4) Zaii Hauchhum and Vanlalhmangaiha: Hmangaihte Hmangaihna (2022) 5) Saiwanah and Mary Dawngi: Ka Pa Khuma (2023) I have following Mizo playlists: 1) 25 Artists 25 Songs 2) Mizo Top 75 3) Mizo 460 songs I like.

I wondered how Monica is filming these with a steady hand (probably a gimbal)! But the credit goes to her. Welcome to India whenever you wanna be back. 😌🙏🏼 *Hope the littering problem subsides in near future. I'm sick of it but it was a thousands of years old habit of throwing away leaves used for packing or other bio-degradable organic waste, no harm. It is hard to control half-a-billion people who still not realised the harms of plastic waste ever since plastic is being used here widely from the past 35 years.

Very nice! Freddie, I wouldn't worry about your "International Licence". It is really just an International Drivers Permit [IDP] issued under one of three UN Conventions [1926/'49/'68] and in some countries can issued by an Automobile Club. Your UK RAC can no longer do this since Brexit.... You can get away - in many countries - with just your foreign licence and no IDP. I've been caught speeding a number of times without one and usually let off with a warning only. But, you "should" get one for Sri Lanka if only for rental ease and peace of mind. From my understanding and minor infringement experience, there is no closed loop "licence" functionality back to home. If any country were to annotate or withdraw my IDP, I'd just "lose" it and grab another.

Dear Freddy, Happy to know that you toured India. I must suggest you to please visit places like the Kailasa temple which was carved out of a mountain. It’s one of the most mysterious temples in the world because no one was able to uncover how a temple of such intricate details was not built but rather “carved” which was extremely impossible for humans during those pre medieval times. I’d recommend you to watch Praveen Mohan’s videos he’s basically a PhD in history archeology and he tells you about those mysteries of Indian temples. Honestly, you should be concentrating on these ancient monuments rather than beaches and stuff only then, you’d really appreciate the mysteries of this beautiful ancient civilisation that lived over thousands over years ago. Modern day India is absolutely nothing compared to what it was in the ancient times. I wish you nothing but the best. See you soon. Ciao ciao

The model you hired is a Twinspark (two sparkplugs) carburetor model that is why there is no fuel pump sound when you turn on the ignition to start the bike. They are a bit down on power compared to the 500's but cool all the same. Looking forward to Sri Lanka. Lester.

I’ve been 5 times to Goa and always explore on a R.E. It’s is magical, as you say. I’m looking forward to seeing the Sri Lanka vids as I’d really like to go there too. (I’m so jealous). Take care Dudes..

Hi Freddie & Monica, I heard you mentioning that your next destination would be Sri Lanka. Wish you a wonderful time in the island paradise. It’s pretty hot this time of the year though hence brace yourself. Cheers 🥂

It is irrelevant to your “international license,” Which isn’t a license. It is called a permit, but it is just a translation of your original national license. Penalties apply to your actual license. For serious breaches, the country you are in can be entitled to ban you from driving while you are in the country. If you get speeding tickets while driving in a foreign country, you are generally expected to pay the fines immediately. Some countries (including India and the UK) have reciprocal arrangements with others, so they can tell your home country which can choose to put the points on your license.

Nice calm videos of my Goa, but will we be able to see Monica at all?

Come back ASAP. There used to be a Thomas Cook flight from London to Goa via Moscow. A Boeing 757 or. 767. See if it’s still on. Everyone on board refuelled as soon as they landed!

I got to Goa nearly every year since 2010. The North Goa used to get a lot western tourists then but now they prefer South because it's much calmer since North has become the party hub for Indians. But even in South when I went for the Christmas & New Year's, people there were saying tthe no. of tourists are still no match for pre covid numbers.

Great content! Is there a way to invert order of videos in the playlist? It is backwards now. Would be great to be able to play them in chronological order.
