In Poland there still stand many Polish monuments commemorating the hard times.

From Siemianówka to Białystok riding on the Honda motorcycle in Poland. Visiting a local mechanic in search of a new rear motorcycle tire. Since we have to wait a night for the tire we spend the day in Białystok in the historic centre, wandering through the Versailles of Poland Branicki Palace. Passing by the monument to the heroes who defended the city. Inscripted by the words God Honor Homeland and Independence. A reminder still of the relatively recent hard historic time Poland went through. Riding on a Honda motorcycle, Transalp 600.

It's Friday, drinking game is back on, tonight featuring the word 'Białystok'. Also, what would your rear tire of choice be?

Mitas is a Czech company owned by Michelin. They probably don't have one of those programs where you pick up your new tire at the factory. Kind of a steampunk thing talking to an intercom.

I ride the E07's front and rear. I am on my second set. They have worn really well, with a long useable tread life. I have to ride a good ways on the hard to get to my dirt, and they are the best tire at both dirt and road for me. Probably the best 50/50 compromise I have found. Don't worry about us off road oriented viewers, we're with you for the ride no mater where you go, or who comes along. When adding " rear foot-pegs" to your lifestyle, you have to consider increasing the comfort and the safety of Atlas. Hence a little compromise in tires and routes. I am glad you have found a friend who can appreciate the travel on Atlas. She's no Yoko-ono! :) P.S. I have tried riding dirt with a pillion, and it is really hard! I hope you don't try to rip it like you do on the back roads with her on back, but you probably will!

The tractionator is an excellent tire, I run the I/T on my dual sport but to be honest, the Motoz Desert H/T is probably the one for you. It will hold up longer and still has excellent grip. I run that one on my 790R, I'm not a fan of the HT front tire though...

Thanks for the videos Pedro. How do you find places to stay while travelling...especially in countires where you do not speak their language? Do you use an app or? Just curious what works best.

@iPedroMota Жыл бұрын

I used to walk into places when needed and check availability. Without language basic English words, gestures, body language and notes becomes the communication form. Even haggled this way for room prices. Now it's mostly on the Booking app, rarely airbnb anymore because that app has become extremely bad. Private hosts are on Booking too now and offering better prices anyway, especially once you collect level 2/3 genius loyalty discount (this might be bs with hotel prices but with private hosts I think the discount is legit).

@iPedroMota Жыл бұрын

Cheers, always a bit easy on any tire in the beginning. These patterns never are, only knobs will put you slightly at ease in the mud. On the rear it has been great, soft rubber but still lasting so far and sticking on the mild off-road we've done. I really dig Mitas, so far only winners and same goes for the mc23 front I'm putting on later.

@iPedroMota Жыл бұрын

The Polish seem to have it figured out at the moment. Place looks booming on the coast and in the cities with happy people and a lot of families out and about. You can sometimes feel the contrast between the 'old' and the 'new', the hard times are still in peoples memories so they seem happy with their own brand of 'moving forward'. Like the Baltic countries proud of their history because they know how much suffering it took to get where they are (or even exists for that matter). Most affordable country too with their own currency, especially when compared to the Baltic countries so that seems to be bringing in business and opportunities.
