*LEAVE A LIKE FOR CHICO! :)* Do you remember my 2021 Best-Of video? In which I said that I'd like to challenge myself more? Well. I wasn't lying. Making a video like this Gran Canaria one was new to me. And it was tough to motivate myself since I know that it won't generate a decent amount of views. But I promised myself not to create for exposure and likes anymore. I want to create content that makes me proud. So - would you be proud of yourself if you created a video like that?

It's incredible how good this video is and totally out of your comfort zone. Loved it! I hope to see more videos like this in the future (even if it's a ton of work 😅).

Hi, Schaaf big fan here. Yesterday i met theses guys from canary ride! It was a very welcoming experience! After a day in the saddle, i have 2 more unexpected things i found: not a single insect died on my helmet! And the crazy temperature diference between coast 27 and summit 38 degree Celsius! I will come back! Best ride of my life!

Your "sound" series has some of the most vicarious motorcycle videos I've ever seen. This was an interesting change to your channel. I can tell a lot of work and care went into this video. Thanks for sharing.

This is my first time seeing, and hearing you! Totally how I imagined you! 😂 Awesome ride! Also, I love the Kitty!!

Schaaf, this video is up there with the best i've seen. Amazing edits and very entertaining!

Being canario from Gran Canaria makes me extremely proud of my island even more watching this and making me feel soooo lucky . I can enjoy It each day all year long . And another good thing is that you can travel between islands to enjoy the other island roads. You guys are more than welcome to come here to enjoy everything we can bring , thats surely is not as much as other countries or places but It surely are good to enjoy life. You can ask for any question about travel here , i will respond without problems!

I’ve bin on Gran Canaria many times, but never rode a motorcycle. You convinced me to try it. Thanks, and many nice and save riding over there.

I watched this video 2 years ago for the first time. And now after 2 years memories suddenly came back and I want to visit this place soooo badly 🥵 It’s not easy since I was broke as a joke my whole childhood, and still, every day is a new battle. But I would like to visit and ride a bike in this place as soon as possible, specially because I was never on a plane and propper vacation. Stay hard!!!

The timing of this video is on point! I had just booked a motorcycle trip in Gran Canaria. Much appreciated, sir!

Lieber Schaaf, das Video steht dir so gut! Ich war sehr überrascht. Es ist mal was Neues. Klar, es gab schon mal was ähnliches in die Richtung. Aber bei dieser Qualität und mit so viel Aufwand hatte ich noch mehr Spaß beim zusehen. Deine Editing Skills sind brutal! Vor allem mag ich deine unverblümte, ehrliche Art und diesen authentischen, ansteckenden Humor. Durch das ganze Influencertum der letzten Jahre ist echt schwierig geworden einen ehrlichen, lebensechten Kontent zu bekommen. Für mich persönlich ist dein Kanal eine absolute Perle auf der Plattform. Und selbstverständlich freue ich mich über jede deiner seltenen Erscheinungen auf 1000PS. Es hat unglaublich Spaß gemacht, dir dabei zuzusehen, wie du bei dem Video mit der Multi genau die selbe Strecke mit dem Motorrad abgefahren bist, wie meine Kristina und ich im Januar mit dem Auto. Wir kennen uns zwar nicht persönlich, aber ich finde deine Art unglaublich sympathisch und charismatisch. Danke dir vielmals für deine Arbeit und diesen unglaublichen Unterhaltungsfaktor. Beste Grüße aus Wächtersbach.

Gran Canaria is a paradise made true....I'm Spanish, I knew it with a TRX 850. Long long time ago....thanks Schaaf!! 👍🏻👍🏻

This video BLEW MY MIND! That's appropriate ;) So grateful to have you on the internet. Gran Canaria is truly beautiful! I can see why you chose the place 😋 I can't give you a feedback about winter because we can ride almost all the time of the year here in India 😉 As you said, instead of trying to get likes, you've made it "natural" Be proud, sir! You should definitely consider making more videos like this. I like this style :) Never actually seen a lot of videos in this "natural" style. Chico is wonderful! Speed safe

What a beautiful place. Looks like a motorcyclist's heaven

Glad to had people like you here! Enjoy the island 🇮🇨✌🏽😎

I'm a true believer. Gran Canaria is an amazing destination for us Northern Europeans locked in the debths of winter. Riden there four times now, it is everything you describe. I think you were unlucky to see much rain. Beautifully made vid. 👏

I've got to say, this is the most informative and inspiring summary of Gran Canaria I've seen. The tip regarding the ring-road motorway is a game changer! 👍

Thank you. Mucho gracias. I'm watching this just before heading out to the mountains here on GC.

Was great to see you and to verbally get you're perspective on things, always enjoy the camera angles and also love Chico 😄😄

Chico is awesome haha 😹 Looks like he was trying to eat you in the end. Gran Canaria looks amazing. For now I'm limited to mainland Europe but perhaps in the future? Awesome video as always 👍

This is a perfect and wonderful vídeo to me. You did a very good work! Congrats, and of course, Gran Canaria is fantastic!

I have no excuses, It's on my list for late 2022!!!!

I’ve been twice and ridden for 3 days. Spectacular! We head back next week.

Ok, as an Austrian I fully believe you this is paradise in winter. But those of us that have to pay for everything motorcycle related, 1.100 Euros cover almost the whole season of riding. Yes, the short summer season, but nevertheless. As for myself, I ride the whole year. Even in winter roads can be dry and warm clothes are not expensive and last long. So the only thing I truly hate about winter riding is salt on the roads and the cleaning after. Last weekend Kalte Kuchl - roads dry, skiing going on right beside the road, what a paradox feeling. So my winter "escape" is still - Austria. ;). For now. Very nice video, Schaaf! Stay safe!

I love your videos mate! Greetings from Spain and thank you for your great coments and review!

I live in Gran Canaria and every weekend I drive my motorcycle on those roads, it is a delight. I'm excited that you came to pilot here and that you liked it. See you soon. thanks for this great video mate

Yay it's a montage of sorts. Love these videos.

I am here on the bike you took, roads and weather awesome

Definitely bucket list destination! Longer flight for me though from California.

Definitiv überzeugt ! Danke für die Eindrücke, mega Lust drauf bekommen👍

Astonishing video Shaaf! Delightful scenery and good tips of info about an excellent holyday destination. Thanks!

Big thanks dude, Will have my first ride on CG tomorrow :D

Buenas rutas por la isla y bonitos paisajes. Saludos desde gran canaria

Best video I've seen on KZfaq so far.

Huhu Schaaf, can't wait for the RAWs, but even this video was very nice. Definetly enjoyed the scenic shots, if I find some free time (and can convince some friends) I'd love to go there. Keep up the great work, really love your content.

I am going this year thanks for this

i like chico ! 😍and of course the incedible and astounding insights of gran canaria !

love love Gran Canaria

GC tourism owes you bigtime. I'm sold 😳

the cat biting you in the last bit of footage.😂👍🏻

Convinced, looks like a lot of fun!

Hey Schaaf. Great video. Thanks for putting a huge smile on my face! I needed that. Cheers from Kelowna, British Columbia. Canada

Keep it up schaaaaaaf, nice Video!

I'm from south Spain (Andalusia), so I can ride during winter as well but man, I need to go to GC!!

My excuse - my third most fav.activity after motorcycling and simracing - wintersport!!! But yeah, GC would be nice as well

Man, your editing skills are off the roof!!!

A really fantastic video of a fantastic island. Thanks a lot for this informative piece 👍

wow! great video! a very refreshing one. Love this, and your signature videos definitely.

Great video brother thanks for sharing this great spot ✌️ and what a coincidence I have a black dog named Chico with a broken tail 😂 bless their hearts animals are the best . Ride safe ✌️

You always manage to inspire Schaaf. Thank you. Coming from Canada I'm planning to travel European roads this summer!

Great video if only for the twist after curve after twist after curve clips but it was informative too👍 I went to Tenerife once and it was wonderful, sadly it was after my spine issues stopped me riding but to hire a bike would have been a dream ride.❤️ Speed and ride safe my friend.😊👍

Ausrede: Keine. Hast mich überzeugt! Jetzt kann ich mich garnicht mehr zwischen Spanien und GC entscheiden. 😁 Und: Super Video, mega gemacht. Respekt!

Moim Schaaf, deine Videos sind wirklich ein Genuß und werde defintiv so ein Trip nachahmen. Welche Maschiene bist du denn dort am liebsten gefahren?

Hallo Schaaf, sehr schönes und sehr gut gemachtes Video! Ich liebe die Insel auch, war schon 4mal da, doch leider nur mit 4 Rädern auf den Strassen - was jedoch, wenn man die Familie mal nicht im Auto hat, auch sehr viel Spaß macht. Da konnte selbst ich als nur halbwegs geübter Fahrer den Fahrwerksunterschied zwischen einem Golf und einem Gefährt von Citroen ausmachen - es waren Welten... Mit dem Motorrad die Insel (oder auch Teneriffa oder La Palma) zu erkunden, steht ganz weit oben auf meiner "Things to do before I die" - Liste - Dein Video hat den Wunsch jetzt nochmal verstärkt... Vielen Dank für die tollen Aufnahmen und Impressionen, auch wenn ich die Insel sehr gut kenne, haben mich die Bilder nochmal geflasht! PS: nichts gegen Klapphelme ;-) als Brillenträger "liebe" ich sie seit vielen Jahren...

Nice, informative and to the point - might need to book some tickets for late 2022. Good stuff Schaaf!

The production quality of this video is 🔥

your story telling is excellent, glad you had a blast!

Nils hat das letztes Jahr schon sehr schmackhaft beworben. Schön zu sehen, dass Du es ihm dieses Jahr gleichgetan hast. Eigentlich sollte man das wirklich über den Winter machen - tja, eigentlich. Die Preise für die Bikes sind absolut fair und dazu ohne Kilometer-Begrenzung. Das ganze bewegt sich auf alle Fälle in einem preislich realistischeren Rahmen als die letzten Motorrad-Reise-Präsentationen von Gregor, auch wenn die Destinationen nicht miteinander zu vergleichen ist, aber schön ist es auf GC allemal. #greatfootage ✌👍

Love you man. Lessgoooo!

Thank you!!!! for this poetic video🙌🏻🙌🏻

Thanks for come to my country Schaaf!!!!! Graciass ✊🏻🇪🇸 Gasssss!!

Been to LPA so many times for work and never realised how insane the roads are although I have sampled some lovely food and wine there. I am definitely going before the spring

Excellent video, definitely noted on the bucket list.

I’m ready to go now!

Ja Gran Canaria ist schon ein Traum zum Motorradfahren. Ich war erst im November mit eigenen Motorrad dort, und auch auf Tenerifa, Fuerteventura und Lanzarote. Es ist nur halt so die Inseln sind sehr klein, zb Gran Canaria kennst du spätestens am dritten Tag alle Straßen wobwei Gran Canaria noch eine der größeren Inseln ist. Ich hatte schon wunderschöne 10 Tage auf den Canaren. Meine Afrika Twin hat alles gesehen von besten Asfalt bis gröbsten Schotter. Grüße Gottfried

😂 😂 😂 If Gran Canaria blew your mind wait to discover Tenerife.... You will be definitely in love.

Hey Schaaf! Fantastic video as always, your footage never disappoints! Stupid Question if you don't mind: How do you manage to bring your helmet by plane? Do the airlines accept it as hand luggage? Thanks and all the best :)

I have been there 5 times... after 1st time I committed to go every winter.

Since you asked - I don't go on a winter escape due to time and people I am close to. It is difficult to justify to leave for a week during the limited free time that I could spend with my girlfriend in between the fall and spring semester (we're both still studying, we only have around two weeks of free time). My "winter escape" therefore is riding locally with the adequate clothing as long as its over 5°C and temperatures have been mild during the night. Tomorrow is perfect for example :) (In Westdeutschland jedenfalls) Edit: Yep. You convinced me. Either my gf gets her license or one of my best buddies does it.

Awesome video, I'm so glad I subscribed!! Now I'm really considering going there, it looks beautiful!

i have no excuse, i keep telling myself to do it and this video finally convinced me to go... i guess that's a new Series...

Your Ego is Not Your Amigo! Words to live by. Thumbs up for the creative presentation... und für dein Kumpel Chico!

If I was living in Northern Europe right now, instead of Thailand, I would be sold. Looks fantastic for the multitude of reasons you outlined......Chico ❤

Fabulous place to visit in a European winter 👍

incredible vid ! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Great video!

Hola Hombre! Ich würde gerne ein Herz vergeben an der Stelle, weil es ein tolles Video ist und es mich „nach Hause“ versetzt, allerdings muss der Daumen reichen. Freut mich zu sehen wie sehr dir die Reise und das fahren gefallen hat. Schon jetzt freue ich mich auf weitere GC Videos und vielleicht sieht man sich mal dort 💪🏻 Grüße, Dennis

You can ride in southern and eastern mainland Spain all year round as well, nice weather is guaranteed 👌

Schöne Bilder, danke fürs mitnehmen :)

Love your CAT !!!!! (and your Videos)

Sehr sehr Leiwand, Bravo

This video is a poem! 💯😂 Aber ernsthaft: Würde ich nicht jeden Dezember und im Frühjahr auf Mallorca Motorrad fahren, wäre Gran Canaria wirklich eine Reise wert! Übrigens: Menorca ist auch übelst die gute Insel zum Mopedfahren! 👍

Oh wow, what a beautiful place! Were the fun roads always that empty, or did you have to go out early to avoid traffic?

Tenerife is great aswell! I think all of Spain is a great destination for motorcycling riding...

4:18 hilarious, I love your videos!

The videography is insane. Ur presentation is also good, do these kind of videos often

Gracias Schaaf! Tu si que sabes disfrutar en moto! Vs 😁

Sehr cool 😎 Wäre jetzt auch gerne dort

Servus Schaaf. Aufgrund deiner Videos habe ich mir für Januar 24 eine Woche GC mit Motorrad gebucht. Natürlich war ich so schlau und hatte vergessen, deinen Rabattcode anzugeben... 🙄 Aber das ist egal. Ich bin sehr gespannt auf die Insel, die Kurven und die Honda NC750x, die ich hoffentlich bekomme. Danke für das Video - deine Gründe waren absolut überzeugend. Es sind die kleinen Dinge, die zählen.

Yep, on my shortlist...I see now, that one time you told Nasty that your overdue vid got eaten by your cat, that wasn't even a lie! :D

Hmmm...from Australia, the flights all seem to be around 40 hours, so I'll probably pass. Looks amazing, though!

The bad thing is that in 1 week you end up seeing it all. Next time you can go to Tenerife. It is even more exaggerated with a volcano 4000 m high.

Mir gefallen deine Reiseberichte besser als die RAW's weiter so 👍 So bekomm ich auch ein wenig Urlaubs feeling bei Regen und Schnee 😁 Habe meinen Gran Canaria trip im Jänner leider wegen Corona absagen müssen, aber das Video mindert die Enttäuschung ein wenig 👌

Schaaf ur pro rider. Can u make a video on cornering and other techniques which could help less experienced young riders like me. I just love the way u corner😍😍

Hello Schaaf, incredible video🔝 it made me want it to be my next riding destination. As a suggestion you have to go to Mallorca, another Spanish island with incredible places and twisty roads.✌

Ich liebe Gran Canaria, jede Straße abgeritten. Ein Traum Best Place ist Puerto de Mogan. Geiles Video, Toll geschnitten, Profi halt 😁👍👍👍

Thanks for sharing this spot bro!

Thanks for this interesting video ! It's really encouraging to travel there. If u want to do some very nice off-road, u are welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦. Not fare from Canaria

Well thanks now we need to go to Gran Canaria 😜💪🏼

Glad you liked it. GC is nice, but Tenerife offers greater variety, and is prettier imho
