First of all, hats off for heading down that dirt track in the first place. I think your inexperience let you down there. To fast through muddy puddles on road tyres. But then, I was spat off my bike much the same way the other week as mud can be so unpredictable. I was shouting at the screen for you to get the bike up first time. Loved the way you were talking to yourself to bring your adrenaline back down and tell yourself it’s ok.

Great work with the recovery. Found myself in a similar situation many times, but we never learn. If you attach some paracord or thin rope to your side stand puck you can get on the bike before pulling it up. Less chance of the bike sinking into the mud. Can't wait to catch up with the rest of your trip. Looks like you're having the best of times out there. I'm planning a similar trip for next year so it's great to get some first hand tips on how to do it (definitely keeping the off road tyres fitted). 👍

@@SaffySprocket pleased both Saffy & Suzuki are unscathed. Your crash was definitely more dignified than mine on the BikeSafe course. We'd pulled over on a country lane, and I didn't realise where I'd stopped was just where the camber of the road dropped into the verge, so as I tried to set off all my front wheel would do was turn in towards the ditch below. I went & put my right foot down a bit hard, and with nothing underneath my left foot to re-adjust, I had no option but to drop the bike down into the grass/mud! Luckily bar a broken lever guard, the only thing that was harmed was my pride & briefly my confidence. 😄

I've only dropped my bike once outside the UK and that was in Greece in the early 80's near the Corinth Canal. Luckily, although it was on tarmac, it was at walking speed so no damage was done and we were able to pick her up and carry on heading south. I don't even think about my continental near-misses any more. We were young and believed that we were invincible! I'm happy to be older and wiser now. 😉 Richard

Mud and clay are quite testing, especially on those tires. Like skating on ice with flip flops on. You handled it well, and kept yourself calm. Not sure if you have a beacon or Garmin inreach type device in case of emergencies? If you are planning to go off the beaten track a bit more alone, especially where there is maybe no mobile signal, it may be something to consider, and always make sure its tethered/mounted on your body, easily accessible with both hands. Alternatively the same applies to a phone, as if you are alone and pinned under the bike it would be difficult. Again, you handled the situation well so pat yourself on the back a bit, safe travels and take care.

Good to know that you are OK, Saffy. You need to get an adventure bike with knobblies to tackle those muddy tracks. At least you were on fairly soft earth. I recently dropped my 240Kg BMW (from stationary) on tarmac. Hadn't noticed the gradient to the right and put only one leg down - bike leaned too far over and I couldn't get leverage to pick it up again. I went down with the bike and I can say that tarmac is a lot harder than mud - it hurt. 😢Anyway, lesson learned - not to be repeated. Keep it RUBBER SIDE DOWN! 😄

Awesome job. You shut the motor down. Got the vulgarity out of the way! That actually helps. Took a couple of minutes to get yourself together and then went to work. Falling down is part of life. You can’t truly live without crashing every now and then. Getting comfortable with that makes all the ups higher and all the downs a bit less down. In a couple of weeks, you’ll laugh at the whole situation.

Hi Saffy. It takes some courage, strength and balls to do a trip like this at such a young age and on your own. The only way to get better is by our mistakes in life. Good luck and stay safe and more importantly enjoy yourself 🤣👏👏👏

That was a bit 8f a tumble and you handled it well. There will be more so don't worry lol.... My thoughts immediately though is something that I was guilty 8f myself when I came of my Versys 1000 . I had simply too much weight high up. I now put my sleeping balls and bedding in my too box. The heavy stuff either goes across the back seat or in the bottom of the 2 side panniers. It makes a huge difference. Good luck Saffy though you are doing great ... 😊😊😊

Hi Saffy, telling the truth ones you enter the dirt road, I felt like riding my motorcycle right behind you.I felt very tense watching you speeding up and felt telling you, Saffy slow down, you are going to fast, watch that puddle, steer to the right and so on. But at the end you did well and since I was mentally riding behind you while watching you on KZfaq, I must say sorry that I couldn't help you. Right a way, I love your giggle. Hope to watch your next trip soon.

So glad you weren't hurt! I've dumped my own bike a couple of times off pavement and was similarly lucky. ...Or WAS it luck? Maybe you just have good instincts on how to land! You bought good gear, too. I think you're better at this than you give yourself credit for.

Both you and Rocket are battle hardened now, Saffy! Honda Adventure Centre course or similar ? You obviously enjoy exploring the country side (as do I) so it makes sense to orientate Rocket that way if poss ? I'm a non biker, so it would be interesting to hear what tyres would be better and how far they could take you, or whether you'd need a different bike and why. Would it have been worth sacrificing some trail tyres for the whole trip - how long do they last on & off road ?

Same damaged roads as in Belgium... They call Belgium as "That shitty peace of tarmac between The Netherlans and France". Even when I tell my TomTom to avoid gravel roads, I'll end up dirt-biking on gravel. No fun on a roadbike :) Glad you're okay after the drop!!! Stay healthy!!!
