Thank you for your nice comment. The making of the video indeed takes a lot of time, but it's nice to hear that people like it. Then it's worth all the time.

Thank you for your advise. I will think about your suggestions. In my opinion the sound of the motorbike is an important part of a video about motorcycle adventures. But maybe it can be a little more to the background.

Thank you.

Thank you. It's my pleasure.

I think you're right, but it's easier said than done for me. I don't like falling hard. I'm afraid I don't have enough confidence for riding faster.

I did this trip in the end of May and stayed in hotels.

That's one of the reasons I bought this bike. I would feel very uncomfortable riding a 1200GS here on that steep descent.

You're welcome

I did not have any problems with finding gasstations. Because the CRF300Rally runs about 30 km/l I can drive around 300km. I also carry a two liter bottle with spare fuel, but I did not have to use it.

@@mytetimpressions6786 Thank you!

Thank you. I used the Michelin Anakee Wild on the front and rear. I changed the rear after about 4000 km. There was some profile left, but not enough to start a new off road adventure. The front was still good.

@@mytetimpressions6786 ok Thank you look forward to your next adventure 👍

Yes, I totally agree. I had my original IRC tires on my bike. The Michelin tracker is a tire that I will consider when riding again on such a muddy trail. Because I also have to drive long stretches on the pavement I wonder how the Michelin trackers perform on the pavement and what the milage is that I can expect. I found different opinions on the internet. Have you any experience with these tires?

@@mytetimpressions6786 I use the Mitas CO2 Stoneking for TET trips. I find them to be a very good all round tyre - road legal, very good in mud, very good on loose rock, good on tarmac and they wear well. I've tried various other tyres over the years but always come back to the CO2

@@barry29193 Thank you. I will also consider them.

@@barry29193 what sort of milage Barry ?

@@2BoldlyGo Sorry I dont keep track of mileage but I've done 2 week long trips to france and one to spain plus trail riding in the Uk and there still going strong.

Hello, thank you for your nice comments. In case of the ACT, when I know already were I want to spend the night, I book a hotel the evening before. When riding the TET I don't know beforehand how far I will get on the route. Then I book a hotel in the afternoon when I can estimate where I will be at the end of the day. Often I have to drive quite a long way from the TET to a city to get a hotel. I hope this answers your question.

Yes, brilliant thanks. Did you consider/ wild camp?🤔👍

@@rickc6726 No, I don't want to bring the extra gear needed to camp. And I have to charge my batteries of my cameras.

OK, thanks 😁👍

Hello. I took me one day to get from Lure to Besançon with a relaxed riding style. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I was traveling in May and the weather was good. However, some hotels were still closed. It's best to leave early in the morning so that you have enough time. In Spain breakfast is often served after 8 in the morning. I did not have any issues. I hope you enjoy the ACT as much as I did.

The gopro remote support is 'handmade' by me. On the left mirror I taped some foam to give it a larger diameter and sticked velcro tape around it. On the moment I use also a second gopro remote. The support of this one is made of a small metal plate that is bend and attached to the handlebar with a pipe clamp. Also on this one I put some sticky velcro. On the back of the remotes I also put some sticky velcro so that I can attach them to the supports. I hope this explanation helps.

That's brillant ! Well Made. Thank you for your reply

It's my pleasure.

Hello, I rode this section of the TET in three days. The footage, however, is divided in 4 parts.

Hello. I did the ACT Pyrenees in the second week of May. There are not really hard sections. As usual some of the sections are steeper than it looks on the gopro footage. I wish you a nice ride.

@@mytetimpressions6786 Thanks for your answer. Ride safe.

When you are a member of the ACT (adventurecountrytracks.com) you can download the gpx files from their site. The smugglerroute is a part of the ACT Pyrenees.

Thank you. Most of the time I had good weather with blue skies. That's what you need.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will defenitely use other tires than the standard IRC tires when I'm going to muddy places again.

I'm glad you like the videos. The Dutch TET has many dirt roads with sand and mud.

You're welcome. That's one of the purposes of this channel. I also like to have an impression of a part of the TET before riding it to prevent needing to ride large parts that are too difficult for me.

Thank you. The advantage of riding solo is the freedom to stop and go when you like.

Hallo. Dit was eind maart na ruim twee weken regen.

You're welcome

Also on my list for 2024! Great, thank you. @@mytetimpressions6786

Ik heb de vering voor en achter aangepast. Daarnaast carter bescherming en valbeugels.

@@mytetimpressions6786 budget vering of rally raid? want ze leek heel erg goed gebalanceerd

Ik heb hyperpro vering voor en achter. Dit rijdt veel beter dan met de originele vering, die te soft is en ook veel te veel door zakt met bagage.
