- 117 riders entered Sandraiders 2023 to experience riding on 1600km of tracks used in the legendary Paris-Dakar race during the eighties and nineties.
I entered this year on a Yamaha TT600 while my son Charlie took his Honda XR600R and in this video you get see what happens as we scramble through some of the greatest scenery Morocco has to offer over the 7-days the Sandraiders event runs for. Dunes, dust lakes, rocky passes, they're all here!

Amazing how Harry manages to commentate very calmly whilst navigating the surface of Mars . Must be a great experience to be able share with his son also
Charlie's epic moustache is the real star of the series 🥸
it's a proper Lord Flasheart effort!
@@ep1981 Woof! Woof!
Proper 90s Saab driving grain buyer 'tash.
All of Charlie's photos were worth the stops. Those vast expanses of sand, open sky, and sun were really something to behold, and those riverbeds looked really rugged to navigate. I chuckled a bit when Charlie was going over all of his bike's issues and then Harry says, "Mine is just press the button and it works." 😎 Very pleased to see John wasn't seriously injured. Thanks again Harry, Charlie, John, Oscar, and everyone else involved for another great video! 👍👍
My son doesn't ride but I can well imagine what a wonderful experience for you riding with your son Charlie must be. I can sense that you are mindful of where Charlie is, ahead or behind, and I can hear the comfort in your voice when all is well for you both. What memories you are making that you will talk about in the years to come. I wish both you and your friends well for the remaining days.
How much talent does one man have!
Fantastic content ,incredible terrain,scenery,extra special accompanied by your son.
Living off subsidiary s can't run a farm yer a real hero not lol
Huge respect for you Harry, and thanks for the amazing footage!
...didn't like to mention that Noraly (Itchyboots) did much of that on her own earlier in the year! 😉
@@oldgittarist but u did
Hats off to anyone that rides in this.
Thanks Harry for taking us along.
Love everything you do Harry, but I must say these yearly ride outs are my favourite highlight.
Next year, sponsored by Loctite.
I think I need to buy Charlie a tube of Loctite for next time..
Thank you for sharing another fine chapter in this adventure. I am amazed by your level of fitness and endurance. You also have your bike well-sorted.
That looks like great fun!
Apart from the rocky river beds.
And the sinking sand.
And the precipitous drops off the side of the road.
And the bomb craters in the trail.
I'll just do the rest day, I think!
These sorts of videos are absolutely incredible harkens back to old school magazines so simple and unexaggerated as usual ,classy stuff.
Cheers for sharing
Harry you've made me so incredibly jealous, I'm a 22yo engineering student and as soon as I've graduated I'll be buying a bike and prepping for this wonderful event!
Get some off-road training first, this isn't an event for beginners!
@@harrysgarage Haha of course! I've not even got a UK bike license yet so that's the first hurdle. Plenty of farm experience and mountain biking however
A.i will take your job you won't have any money what a waste of education
Did you get tricked into engineering massive debt no jobs a.i lol 😅😅😅😊
Engineering is one of the first jobs that will go with a.i
Thanks Harry for taking us on these amazing adventures with you.
Wow. Absolutely fantastic. I'm exhausted just watching. Great stuff. Well done. Looking forward to part 3.
Fair play to you Harry! Chapeau
Brilliant really enjoy this sort of stuff, I lived in Dubai and regularly went into the desert on a bike, it brings back the best memories.
What a great series. A real bonding experience with old friends and new. It is shocking to me that anyone would travel to another country with their bike and attempt such a feat of riding in harsh condition for several days and not had gone completely through their bike, bolt by bolt, before leaving home.
It really is inexcusable having a bike break down as often as Charlie's had for the things it did, holding the entire crew up or having them split up for his lack of thoroughness. Son or no son. I'd leave him home on my next biking adventure.
Charlie learning first hand the benefits of safety wire!
Jeez Harry! You're a lot tougher bugger than one could have guessed!
Tough days, one would think, is what this experience is meant to be... you really want to get an honest taste of what Paris-Dakar was like. Thanks for sharing this with us, Harry.
They got a great photo with the jump in fairness :)
This really looks like a great trip and something I must look into.
Had to laugh at the blowing of the dust from the airbox. Just like trackdays... '"What pressure you running mate" "No idea I'm just fiddling with them, everyone else is so I guess i better too"
Another brilliant Stage video, well done to you and Charlie, a winning combination.👏👏
You quickly get the impression that the camera doesn't do it justice for just how challenging some of those sections were.
What a great experience, I can see why Harry keeps going back! And for what it is, it's a pretty reasonable price (as long as you have a decent bike and kit already to do it!).
I do 100kms on a daily on an xl125..... this would be a piece of cake....... lovely video.....everything is on point
BEAUTIFUL RIDING FOR AN OLD FELLA HAZZA, WHAT A LIFE AND EXPERIENCES WITH YOUR SON.... THIS IS LIFE MATE, KIND REGARDS FROM NEW ZEALAND 🇳🇿 😊😊😊😊😊
Hazza? Bit overly familiar there.
Thank you for showing us exactly what these bikes were made for and more importantly what they can do.
Growing up (post first ten years in Staffordshire) in Southern California my early motorcycle riding was mostly in the desert or the Santa Clarita River bed (Indian Dunes Offroad Park) on a Suzuki 90. I was dead keen to develop a satisfactory level of competence and recall spending and entire day putting 100 miles on the odometer riding a 1-1/2 mile stretch of sand whoops back and forth. Late afternoon, with arms like wet spaghetti, the bars suddenly ripped out of my hands and el splatto. A lesson learned.
I love these bike adventure videos
Harry’s always such a class act, in all environments
Fantastic adventure, nice one.
I had a 1994 Xr600r we would ride east of San Diego in anza borrego desert lots of fun. Had a big tank on it with Supertrap exhaust. That bike never let me down but it was hell to start if you tipped it over😂😂. Great series harry.
Absolutley fantastic series of videos. Cheers as ever for the great content. Ps. the lad’s tache is bang on point.
I really have no passion dor motorbikes at all. Nothing. But I watched both vids and I love it.
Wow Harry, you must be well fit, I'd have seriously struggled to do all that back when I was in my mid 20's, yet you must be in your lat 50's ? well done that man!
Harry will be very flattered if you think he's in his fifties 😄
@@thefamilyrobbo yeah, I was trying to be polite, but it just goes to reinforce my point, Harry is amazingly fit for his age!
Good on you Harry, holding up your end for the "older gentlemen" riders.
Trail bike riding is far more physical than many realise. For me, it was easy 50+ years ago, don't think I'd last on the trail too long now. Great stuff Harry.
Harry those rock fields look proper torture mate, I`m knackered just watching it ! Good effort you and the lads!
It was the heat this year that was the big factor, I'm always amazed what these bikes can hop over if you point them in the right direction. Often it's more about having confidence you can get through, the worst thing you can do when faced with a tricky section is to hesitate as then it's all over.
@@harrysgarage Deffo mate, think you`ll come off and come off you will! I now live in western australia it`s toppers with sand down here and some fantastic desert riding. Can`t wait to see your next vid, thanks..
Brilliant adventure Harry x
Must be so nice to know your experience is with your boy as well 🥰 great content ❤
Thank you Harry for these wonderful videos! I love all the bikes, but I’m here to see the XR400 quietly and humbly complete all the stages with no fuss. Quite possible the best all around enduro/trail bike of all time.
I’m sitting here watching this and thinking yeah I could do that and then I’m like no you couldn’t you old fool😂. Tremendous photos of Charlie and yourself and now I find out there’s a part 3 yippee 👍🏻🏴
There is nothing quite as exquisite as the shower after a day like that! Love the bikes and the commentary.
Harry and The Late Brake Show are what I look forward to every Monday morning here in Bangkok.
I love it! Thanks guys!
I can only imagine how sore and tired you must have been at the end of those grueling stages. Just watching the video I was getting leg cramps!
I started to feel every slip and rock watching Harry soldier on. I went skiing with my son recently. By God, I'm not as young as I used to be, and neither is he. Well done, Harry; Charlie is a chip off the old block.
Shattered just watching it. Great vid.
Great video again Harry. Brilliant to watch !
1st, Harry staying in the saddle, great work!!!!
I always enjoy the channel but must say this adventure is excellent!
Good job old man!
Great adventure... great story... great story teller. Thanks for sharing!
Loved every moment of Sandraiders with you and the lads. looks like driving on Mars! This must be a stone mason´s wet dream. Thank you!
Why a stone mason?
Excellent bike hary
This is great stuff!
What a fantastic back-to-basics adventure, thanks for letting us follow along, Harry. Promising future in documentaries btw: “It’s useful being a camel when you want to eat a tree” :D
This whole story is suspenseful and gripping and absolutely smashing.
Tough stuff, well done.
Great Vlog and amazing scenery fantastic ! 👏👏👏
Congrats Harry. In your sixties so tough! Chapeau!
Really enjoying this mini-series. Thanks Harry and Charlie 🙂
Epic stuff !! 👍
What a special trip! Fantastic riding through all that rock!
As always
Absolutely brilliant 🎉
Pretty much the best thing on TH-cam 👏
Never rode a bike before but I want to go and do this now!!
Amazingly produced and inspirational videos!
This series is more like a documentary. Will be coming back to this one. And putting Sandraiders on my bucket list, after I get some training and then some more. Well done!
Im 62 I always wanted to do that ride! but Alas im satisfied with the miles and miles of dirt roads in my area of Arkansas. Brilliant thanks for sharing!
another cracking video from the series Harry. Really enjoying this adventure
just brilliant stuff 😎
That's some tough riding! Great adventure to have! Well done glad you and the bike survived!
I can’t believe how many bolts Charlie lost!
yeah you'd have thought they would have taken a bottle of Locktite with them
Fantastic
Great narration, Harry.
bloody well done young fella ichy boots 2
Greetings,
Go Harry, thanks for the ride 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸.
Some day I will participate in this fantastic Sandriders rally.
Fantastic what an inspiration. Must buy that Rd04!
Great Episode,
thanks Harry!
The passion to ride
Love it
What a fantastic way to spend time with Charlie
The apple falls not far! 😁
Thanks from 🇨🇦
Let’s ride
Big respect brother!!
Bloody brilliant.
Your videos are awesome and I always look forward to the next one
Keep up the high standards and excellent content
How do you do it? Negotiating lack of road, lack of track, lack of--everything, yet you don't forget us. You keep us apprised of everything. Amazing. Thank you so much for this.
Been loving these videos, the filming of it is great too keeps making me feel like i am on a bike myself :)
Thanks, I'm surprised how well the helmet camera works. I've no idea if the sound has worked until I download the SD cards when I get back to the UK, so it was a big relief when I discovered every clip I recorded was basically usable!
Good on ur Harry keep on living a great life.
I love the comment 'is that a dirty air filter?', looks like fun, great video thanks.
Wow, that looks like fun.
Watching this video gave me an instant flashback! Greetings from the Dutchman with the white and red XT600e
You’re still tough as nails Harry, well done!
Absolutely tremendous 👏
You're a Madman Harry!
Got him with the old 'front disk fell off' trick!
Enjoying it, top stuff!
Wow, lovely to see, as this isn’t for me, but great to watch, listen and experience from home with a cup of tea and biscuits in hand 👍🤣👍👏
“and then you’ll join me on a better bit of road”……lol, amazing adventures Harry, I can hear how physical it is
Well done Mr H
Actually a very interesting video series this i must say!
Great stuff again Harry loved the bit where you saw Charlie and proceeded to have a mini drag race lol 😂😎🏍🏍
Hats off Harry
Looked hard work. 👍👍
Wisdom and control beat style any day in amongst that terrain. That's some incredible sights and terrain , arms and backs and legs must be killing after that mountain, valley and dry riverbeds in the desert , through that day 2 section..
Thanks for the kind comments. My aim is always to get through in one piece and style can go hang! Seems to work out okay..
Sharing incredible memories.
You are a fkn LEGEND
Superb👌👌 the 'harry dakar'....
