Thanks and happy trails!

Yes, but i easily lift it with the load in normal circumstances, the sidstand bored into ground mad it "impossible". The beer afterwards was welcome! 💪🍺🤠🔥

Hi, most of the trail is normal gravel road with som parts that are more fun. If you go alone you can always skip these parts there are normal gravelroads as detours then. 👌👍 Enjoy your trip and happy trails!

Hehe, i was not rumbling Nice words to myself before i got use of the saw and heaved her up. Actually with 2 lever arms and supports 😂. Thanks JD allways giid to have you here.

Haha, Happy to make some of you getting more or less abstinence 😂👌. We have alot of nice campings with all kind of services and facilities. But in this outdoor friendly country there are tons of windshields for free in the forests, most often lakeside. Wikdcamping is alowed if you follow the rules of leavibg no trace and that you move along each day. The TST is mostly gravelroads and doubble tracks. Some single tracks to connect the trails. Those makes it more adventurous, sometimes more tvan needed ehen riding solo packed up. I know a team of 4 that was behind me detoured from the trail at some of these toucher parts for big adv bikes. Had hoped thatvthey vould come on the trail. Normally i esily lift the bike, but with a side stand bored into the ground it was more than I had bare musceles for, butvi engineered it up 💪🤠

Thanks Peter! The trip just got better 👍

Thanks! A was so p*ssed at my self parking the bike like that... 👀💪😁 i normally lift it easy but this was tough, when sidestand got stuck.

Haha, thanks! That was a great trip really loved the solitude, trails and the camp spots i found. Happy Trails Dave!

😂😂 we only have pikes in these lakes, they think they are crocodiles 👀 Thanks for watching and stay safe and wild out there!

Thanks, that one just dissapered 😂🤌

Thanks Gintaras! Longing for adventures again 💪🙌

Tack! Det är allt gott att komma ut på soloäventyr och göra sin grej. Sverige är helt underbart att se på detta sättet.

Haha, yes an edventuoros day indeed by a misstake. I'm really stoked by reaching out to you guys in Aussie as well! The translate is perfect 👌

Awesome 👍🇦🇺🇸🇪

I had a blast Thomas 👍🏻🙌

Thanks Austin! When i teplaced my 690 for a 790R i did that with a matured man in mind. That did just hapoen to a degree... i tend to still explore or just do stuff i probsbly shouldn't. However, normally this works great. I did a misstake to park the bike on the kickstand right there. There were also some single trails that could have got me left in the woods 👀🙈😂. Happy trails!

Thanks buddy! Ofc i cut out all the swearing 😂☝️😁 It was difficult even with the lever arms. When finally the sidestand led lose from the roots in ground i managed to lift it by my own. Afterwards i was happier than before 👀😂🍺

Thanks GB, the first one always taste best.

Oh, thanks Günter! Much appreciated and kind words. Me and my wife started our advriding with a trip in Germany om DR800. We visited Harz, Mosel and other nice places. Then we continued riding south for some years, always appreciated Germany.

@@Braapncamp Next time you come to Germany, Mattias, you can stay at our place in Nürnberg. Bier, Bratwurst und lots of easy gravel roads (legal in Bavaria, unlike single trails). And nice asphalt twisties as well. The North of Bavaria (Frankonia) is underrated by motorbikers, so the roads/tracks are quite empty. But now back to your Trans Sweden video, part 2 is waiting. Cheers, Günter

Gott att höra, hoppas att suget blir en tur i någon riktning inom kort då. Det är klart det bästa att vara ute på tur. Hade gärna haft 2 veckor sammanhängande till detta då det kändes som jag skulle kunna vara ute i en "evighet".

Mattias Eriksson Braap&Camp jag förstår känslan. 😁 Jag jobbade förra veckan, men tog en tur ut till kusten och tog en natt i hängmatten. Och sedan direkt in till kontoret. Passade på när fru och barn ändå var borta...hehe Ibland ska man inte komplicera saker utan bara fånga dagen.

Helt rätt! Fånga dagen med ett hammockäventyr är inte fyskam!

Thanks! I will have a look at your vid 🙌. This spot where it was'a water passage is a road thru a swamp. It is always water there. Ot actuslly was'less than usual.

Thanks! Always giid to head north. 👌 You bet i was happy after i ger her up. 💪

@@Braapncamp Pleasure. ☺👍

Haha, You inow it! Can't tell how frustrated i was on my stupidity, but that beer was a pleasure for sure and i could laugh afterwards 😂🤠🍺🔥. Thanks for stopping by K S!

Thanks! Take care and stay safe guys. Lets hope that this situation improves.

Hey Yuriy, thanks! This is the way that makes me breathe. Ofc all outdoors adv does but this also makes me feel free on another level. I've seen that you have been on really nice adventures lately and will catch up your videos, which are awesome with alot of interesting tips and trix.

Wish You a nice trip then! TET and TST are similar in type of gravelroads/trails. It is the directions that differs and that TST has more alternatives and are alot more covering. As You say, You need mebership on the TuR FB and as well have to comply to a procedure to get access to the google drive with the gpx files. Easy and no cost if you read up on whats expected. Another alternative is the stegra.io web app (paid) that makes similar routes for you very easy in any direction You want. Happy Trails Peter!

Those evening beers... mmmm. But this one was one of the most welcome 😅 Happy Trails! 🍺

Hehe, thanks buddy. Nostof it are like a walk in the park, but the the difficulty alters along the trail.

Hehe, yes and i deserved it after that wrestling 😂😂💪🍺🍺🍺

@@Braapncamp I bet you did, it looked really nasty and heavy 👍💪

He is now a official legend of the Ååååhh society 😂

@@tshansen hehe, you should make a t-shirt; a silhouette of you, a beer in your hand and Ååååååh underneath. I’d totally buy one 😁

@@swebiker9443 Haha, I’m way ahead of you mate… between us and the rest of the internet. A t-shirt is in the making 😆 been planing it for a while now, did never expect the åååhh’s to reach out so far.

It was a great day! The struggle is for good histories and memories afterwards 😂🙌

Haha, nice cool hoods!

Hehe, har man kört tillräckligt långt genom sörjande så vill man igenom 😂👍

@@Braapncamp Trägen vinner 😅

Utan val är det bara att jobba på! ☝️😁

Ha! Good ti see You over here Tom. The trangia is packed on this trip! Not much super gourmet, but better that canned meals 😁🤌

@@Braapncamp So long as your soul is fed. That’s the main thing. Me and my dad are heading to Sweden in one year’s time. To walk the fjallraven classics trail.

Wow, thats cool! Hope we can follow your adventure on Your channel Tom 👍

@@Braapncamp I hope so too. Fjallraven provide the food. So that should be interesting!

Aaah, interesting. I have seen alot of videos of this event sonce i like hiking and trekking. Hopefully it's a mix of drytech food and fresh ingrediences.

Thanks! I use a rollo stick US6xx or jungle oil. In this case the rollon did not work any of the nights. As soon as sun was down i had to jump into my hammock that has a great bugnet that kept all these mosqitos, midgets and "svi" (the smallest ones) out.

Thanks, much appreciated Sam! Beautiful Colorado must be ADV heaven 👌

Thanks, much appreciated! It is a 300ml thermos. Non branded bought at my local grocery store. You find them at Ica grocery stores in Sweden. I have two of them. The turquoise and the gray/orange. The ones available now is black/gray.

Yeeeee, I now know. I apologise, I didn’t see your reply until now. Somehow, KZfaq doesn’t send me message updates. But I now know- your signature thermos. 😂

You find it at ICA, the everywhere grocery store in Sweden. But I think they only have the black color now. I have had this for years but the still sell the model and it is cheap 😁👍

Thanks man! I had a blast and workout as well, beer tastwd awesome after all swearing 😂🍺🍺

It was a long day and some workout thatvi needed 👀😂👌

Tackar Sauli, är du ute med husbilen?

@@Braapncamp jajamen, just nu i Kroatien 😀👍 Fick tag i en plats till skog21, så det ser jag framemot 😀

Aahh kul Sauli, då ses vi. Ha det gott på semesterturen!

Yupp, thats the trick 😁👍. Sometimes i forget about it.

Thanks, that would have been adequate input. Unfortunately i was so p•ssed and tired of myself so i didn't cover it with more video than i show here. But if you mean that i only cut out that part for an separate video and tell more about it in words what i actually did, thats good idea. What you don't see in the video is that i actually had to make two 3m lever arms and two shorter support and alter the lifts between them. The side stand totally blocked the possibility to lift it by my own. As soon as the levering with powerlifts get the stand loose from the roots i was able to lift it by my self. Hope this makes sense.

@@Braapncamp Yes, that's exactly what I meant. I think it would be great content for other wanna be explores like me and would be useful clip for us to Share on forums :)

Thanks Tjommi! Time will come for TST/TET. That åååh comes natural when well deserved 😂. When I heared the bumblebees i thiught it was hornets at first 👀😲😲😂

@@Braapncamp Hahaha, i would have run like a crazy person. Those hornet nest are not to joke around with. So great to see you out and about again.

@@tshansen i loved every bit of this! Today i can laugh at the workout in the woods 😂💪🏻

@@Braapncamp situations like this makes the best camp stories 🤩👏🏻🤣

@@tshansen Totally agree. When The plan fails, The Adventure begins😁

Thanks Ernel! I use worn out Motoz RallZ... 👀😂 but I got the best ever Km's out of them. ☝️😁

😂😂 Ja så är det, normalt plockar jag upp hojen lätt med att bara ta tag i den i styren som en MX. Men när sidostödet satt fastkilat och i utförsbacke så dög inte ens marklyft till som teknik. Vid lyften önskar man som du du säger en 500 exc med på långtur en rejälare maskin. Den ölen kan ha varit en av de godare på mycket länge 😂😂💪🍺

Thanks 👍Thats a good idea! I will look at that. I realize thatvtvis could be of interest in many aspects.

@@Braapncamp Thank you. There is nothing more beautiful then Sweden to visit, specially the beautiful Wild camp spots. And finally over 1 month i am in Sweden.

@@raymondlogister6828 ohh, cool are you here for vacation? Advriding?

@@Braapncamp Yes i coming to Sweden for Vacation and hiking, Kayaking and drive a lot off Sweden gravel roads with my land rover.

Haha, ja gör så, så att du inte redan känner att du sett allt. 😂. Tackar, alltid roligt med kända följare. Happy trails och ha en god tur! 💪

@@Braapncamp Tack ska du ha 👍Vart lite för varmt och för mycket mat..(stekt fläsk är mastigt i värmen), men en t/r Bäckefors blev det i vilket fall. Såg riktigt jobbigt ut när hojen vält där i blötmarken, varmt och knott uppe på det...men du löste det hela 👌 Förresten var hittar man trans sweden trail, finns det någon karta/rutt på nätet ? Edit..såg det var en FB grupp.

Jajjamän finns länk till Google Drive i gruppen och instruktioner.

Uppdaterade senaste video's med länkar till TST och TET.

HAAHAHA! bummer, you heard it 👀😂👍

Hahaha, i notice the same thing and was just like….hmm, did he actually say that 😂

@@tshansen 😂😂👀🍿

Haha, ja den går ner i fickan 😁👌

Jag använder Glympse och har SOS appen. Jag har haft spännband tidigare av just den anledningen men hade inte det nu... men det löste sig 😂

Thats what I look for before set camp. A lake, river or creek. 👌 Makes life easier!

😂 kan jag tänka mig! Kul avsnitt och bra att vara fler.

Thanks 🙏 This was i July, the mosqitos starts to get anoying from mid June to September. Use some mosqito repellant and make a campfire at evenings, that helps alot. 👌 Just go for it 💪🤠🔥✊️✊️

Thank you very much for this quick answer !✌️

If I keep it in second or tvird and just give her bursts she is rather electric, but with an angle from behind picking up the audio she roars good. ☝️😂

Tackar Stefan! Det är en skaljacka som är väldigt lätt. AS singletrack jacket under har jag en separat skydds "jacka".

Haha, thanks my friend! I enjoy riding with friends but as well solo, problems are just possibilities to solved them. ☝️😁. This is the Trans Sweden Trail, not the Trans Euro Trail Sweden. Both are nice 👌 when are you planning to go on your trip?

Hehe, jupp.

Yes, I think the total average on this trip was 4,4l/100Km. Average while riding with buddies is well above 5 😅.

Hi Piyush, cool to reach India and i'm sure i would love to adventure ride in India. I started to ride at approx when i was 12 years old. Ofroad and MX bikes. Then when i studied and had a young family i did not ride for years. When I was 30 years old i picked up the riding again and it was no doubt that an adv bike was the way to go. Since then i have had some different adventure motorcycles. My bike should weight 230-235 Kg's fully loaded approximately i this case. I did not pack it with my most light weight packing. I normally easily pick it up fully packed. This time the sidestsnd had get stuck in the ground. I'm from Sweden. Happy trails!

@@Braapncamp Cool Mattias .....nice to meet you ... seeing you riding makes me ride like you everytime....I also love motercycle very much.....I had a dream about doing all india ride and world ride on a motercycle...hope it will come true one day.......I seriously say that I started watching your Chanel and I kept falling love with the adventure you do ...I'm also a adv rider...just started but I love touring bikes and adv bikes very much......love to see you doing this...makes me to do it too in india......and never think that ktm 790 adv r only weight about 250 kilo approx...in india royal Enfield Himalayas weights 200 kg dry....if you add everything on it it will go upto 300....btw nice to see you Mattias.....we will keep in touch... cheers mate....ride safe..stay safe.... happy adventure to you...😊😃😃💪💪✌️✌️🏍️🏍️🏍️

The RE Himalaya would be my choise if i ever will be able to adv rode in India. The 790R weights 189Kgs dry. That is very impressive. But i think the RE have a fair dryweight that is OK for the type of bike. Sure you must love that bike and take care of both the bike and You.

@@Braapncamp yes Mattias...sure...ride safe ... waiting to you to come to India... take care out there ✌️😃😃...

😂😂😂🔥

Even better, use that empty beer can - crush it after drinking the contents, put it in the tank bag ... it makes a PERFECT side stand support ;) You're welcome!

Thats the classic way to go, unfortunarely i had my forst beer after this. My friend Ari Pekka and other great beer drinkers was on me with this trick immediately 😂😂😂☝️😁. Cheers!

Haha that's brilliant! :D Keep up the great work Mattias, love your videos and approach to life!

Thanks JB 💪👌

Alldeles för långt från folk för att vara strandad men lagom långt bort för att inte störa. Jag försökte marklyft den allt för länge innan jag gjorde två hävarmar med stöttor.

@@Braapncamp smart lösning 👍

Its the Blue trail! But you can chose to skip these parts. I tend to end up in them and just push thru because i like these parts. No problem if you don't stop and throttle on instead. 👀😂.

@@Braapncamp Thank you for the answer. I will begin with the green trail. :D

The trails are 99% easy to ride. You can choose either.

No Kim, the trails are great for the goat. Dalarna is probably the easiest leg on the TST. Fun race gravel tracks most of it with some more fun stuff bow and then.

@@Braapncamp have to Take part 1a and 1b in a weekend , one day

You are right, i easily pick up the bike under normal circumstances. Even with travel packing. But this time i had parked it on the sidestand (stupid place to do so without a sidestand plate). When I had a closer look at the trail ahead it fall behind me and the sidestand got stuck in roots underground. I worked with this in 2 hours and was exhausted. Very angry with myself being stupid to park like this. I had a saw and made myself two levers of 3m and 2m. It was still extremely tough to get it up. You are right again, 2 straps with ratchet is great to have. I actually use to have that. But not this time... even better could be a descent line/paracord with a couple of roll blocks. I think these could be bought as kit and packs small in volume. The aftermath was that I should have just throttled on... but if it had been worse I could have got stuck totally as well. Part like this could be avoided on the TST or TET when yiu see them and are not confident with the situation. Just turn around and detour to get on the trail further ahead. Thanks for Your valid question!

Just seen this brilliant reply. Much appreciated. I went to Sweden this year and did some southern TET so it was quite easy trails. I had Both - cord and a pulley, plus 2x 5m straps, just in case I got stuck. My bike is a 1290 S, so very hard to pick up. I’ve also made my own lifting pole using a medical crutch, bolted pulley on top, so could ratchet. Didn’t need any of it but I definitely would have if I’d dropped the bike. I can now see how yours was stuck - cos I knew you were strong enough to just lift. Thanks again for your reply.

I’m coming to Sweden again this year and if I come across tough going, I will follow your advice and turn back, and go around. Which parts of the southern or central TET are the best sections in your opinion, say I wanted to do about 300km? Which would be ALL you’d get here in the whole of the UK😂

The part around Hökensås is nice on TET there are sections or parts of sections thats nice far north from that as well. As well south. The TST has more of the fun stuff. I think the most important is to research a bit to take some detour and se the culture in different ways. If you stick to either of the trails completely there are alot of forest to see 👀😂. But I like that as well, into the woods and enjoy the solitude. You will find lakes with nice spots along the trail. Wildcamp is great but some stops at camping or B&B för a shower or just beeing social is great as well.

Hi Wilko, pn yhis trip i use Adventure Spec Singeltrack Jacket. Very ligth weight (700g) with kevlar reinforcment on shoulders and arms, rain proof and have a hoodie folded in the neck. Large vent openings under arms. Worked great on this trip. Best parts of the jacket is tbat i felt more free with the low weight and that it is comfy around the neck. Under it I have a separate protection shirt.

@@Braapncamp Thank you very much for the detailed answer.

En gammal Zumo 590 samt en smartphone med appen Topo GPS, vilken riktigt bra för spår. Topografiska Kartor kostar ca 40Kr per land i appen.

Hej, tack för det! Jag håller med, något jag gillar när jag tittar själv. Labbar lite med videoskapelsen så variation lär förekomma :)

En dröm som bör uppfyllas, en lättare adventure hoj och enkel packning samt köra inom egen takt. Gott att bara pysa runt och undersöka nya vägar och avstickare. I trafik skall man vara så lite som möjligt, på skogsvägarna är man betydligt säkrare. 40 är ju en lagom ålder att börja med denna fina krydda i vardagen 👍😁

@@Braapncamp Honda har ju modeller som verkar vettiga till ett pris även jag har råd med. Kanske borde besöka en MC-handlare och se hur det känns. Med körkort i 24 år borde det inte var allt för svårt att ta MC-kort antar jag. Sitter och funderar på en biltur till Nordkap i sommar, är väl ett sätt att se om man får smak för livet på vägen.

@@raskolnikov9067 Ja, men det är ett bra sätt att kolla. Jag drog på solotur med hunden till Lofoten i somras och det blev mycket en inre resa, även om jag upplevde fantastiska saker på vägen. Blir en videoserie på det i vinter. Helt magiskt.

Hej, dessa finna för varje landskap samman hängande i två spår runt hela Sverige. För att komma åt dem behöver du gå med i Facebookgruppen TuR Norden och läsa instruktioner i ett fastnat inlägg. Följ dessa så får du tillgång till en Google Drive med alla gpx filer. Många fina spår. Du kan också kika på Stegra.io ett ruttverktyg online som skapar riktigt grymma rutter på några klick i vilken riktning du än vill. Smakprov på hur det kan se ut finns i en video där jag var med några vänner i Dalarna i somras.

Thanks!@@Braapncamp

Det var lite bättre ja!

Sometimes You just end up there and have to deal with it ☝️😁
