TeapotOne LIVE Your Life
TeapotOne LIVE Your Life - Motorcycle Around The World is the story of Bruce Smart's epic 74,000 miles, 54 countries in 442 days, solo & unsupported around the world by motorcycle adventure, to keep a promise.
From 1st October 2012 to 14th June 2014, Bruce Smart rode a Suzuki GSX-R1000 74,000 miles around the world, solo and unsupported, through 54 countries to keep a promise he made his mum before she lost her battle with cancer. There were ups, there were downs, highs and lows, but one aspect shone through, the overwhelming friendship and support shown from almost everybody he met around the world.
From Europe to South East Asia, Russia to Australasia, South America to the USA and Canada, almost everybody he met opened their lives and homes to a complete stranger, and the journey grew and grew.
The entire RTW adventure was caught on film, from issues with motorcycle shipping, to the most dangerous road traveled, this travel blog, or travel vlog, is a documentary you just can't miss.
-----
The 7th episode in the TeapotOne.com series see's me in Moscow, discovering the city's delights, getting the beast serviced at the incredible 'Mudfactory.ru' and sampling a Depeche Mode concert with crazy Russians!
From Moscow I head East, through Kazan, Ufa, and Chelyabinsk, before the subframe snaps for the 3rd time outside Ishim. I'm rescued by some crazy Russian bikers, and picked up by their support van, driven by the legendary Gennady Shatov, the 1st Russian to ride solo around the world!
Who says it's just another bike trip?
Music in this episode is by:
AlbaRoma: Balkan Blues ( albaroma)
Суп-Харчо - Куба & Эта Штука
(Karcho Soup - Cuba & This Stuck)
Check out other vids in the series on the 'TeapotOneVids' channel, visit the website at www.teapotone.com, or stop by at the facebook and twitter feeds.
Cheers for now and standby for the next episode as I travel East and South to Mongolia, on the way to Vladivostok.

Bruce, being a relatively new subscriber I’m loving this series. It’s so personal. It’s such a shame 10 years on Ukraine and Russia are at war. Good people in both countries. It’s not what either population wants. Madness.

Depeche Mode in Russia! Wow! That was unexpected! But now we all know the real meaning of the Teapot name! 🤣 That's awesome that you found a great place to get the bike serviced. Shame about the sub-frame again, but how good is the biking community when it comes to helping out other riders! It's great to finally get the time to watch this after hearing about this part of your trip on the podcast. 👍

Thanks Steve, yeah it was very refreshing to experience the very best of people - often in places you’d expect to see the complete opposite. 99.9% of people around the world are exactly the same - they just want to look after their friends and family, and will help anyone if they can 👍

Excellent, just go for it bud, you only get one chance in life - as far as we know ;-) Totally agree with what you're saying, I really hope this feeling/openess to strangers doesn't dissipate when I get home, I too plan to be as welcoming to others as everyone has been to me. Really does open your eyes mate, I'm loving it.

Great stuff Bruce, I think your right in what you say about folk in Russia. Mostly from what I hear most people around the world are very friendly and helpful despite what the media would have us believe. I'm glad you experienced good hospitality from the Russian folk. They did a fantastic job on fixing your bike up and taking care of you. Well impressed...! Fantastic series well enjoyable to watch

@teapotone 6 жыл бұрын

Ha, yeah I don’t think it helped things having 17 stone of Scottish lard sitting on it, but I’m sure that particular bike wasn’t right. I’ve owned 5 GSX-R’s and never had a single issue with the subframe. This one went through 4 of them, once it broke a brand new one as I left the M1 on way to a track day at Donnigton?

To see Russia as it was then and to compare it with how it is in 2023 is insane. And on your previous episode how you visited Kiev and to think of how it looks now that it been bombarded to within an inch of its life is just desperate. I hope future generations will be able once again to make the journey you did.

No it was the same cameras the whole way until Oz, when I bought a new GoPro 3+ for the onboard stuff. I filmed the whole trip on an iPhone 5 and small Nikon bridge camera.

had to laugh at how many time you said the name wrong (cause I would have done the exact same thing). Even in editing when you are doing voice overlays, an its right on the back of the van, an still got it backwards. Started to get worried that you were back in the mode of KM/DAY an not seeing the journey you were taking. After you left Ufa an next we see is Isham over 1000km away. Just as I had this thought Russia in its wisdom reached up and pulled you back to ground. I am really hoping in the next episode I get to see some Russian engineering an fix that sub frame from its normal week design to something strong like mother Russia.
