National Parks are worth every kilometre of the area they occupy and I'm glad Australia is preserving nature and the wildlife for future generations to enjoy.
What a great picture of you Mrs TPR! I love to get out and see nature. What you described of all the critter you did get to see was amazing and hope your trip was a success for you and Mrs. It still quite cold here so I have to live vicariously through your videos. Great job my friend!
I took the Tenere over there a couple of years ago. I rode everywhere and did everything the island has to offer. Interestingly, the dirt roads in the centre of the island are covered in red round rocks like ball bearings. I stayed in Kingscoat at the Ozone apartments overlooking the ocean. It was a great holiday and I would defenetly recomend checking it out. The highlight for me was getting to hold the Wedgetail and the Falcon.
We weren’t allowed to hold the wedge tailed eagle 😳. Loved the place, and would love to visit again soon. The roads we traveled on were hard packed dirt roads, so we were lucky. Hope to see you on the roads soon 😎.
Kangaroo Island sounds a beautiful place. Nature's ability to regenerate after devastating fires is incredible. If I ever make it to your side of the globe, there's so many places I would love to visit. 30C+ sounds great, currently below freezing here in central England. Thanks for the vid, cheers and take care.
Thanks for the introduction to Kangaroo Island, it's great to see different parts of the world and learn about their ecology. 33°c that's about 36° hotter than in Scotland right now. I guess your used to the heat but when it gets above 17°c here we think that's tropical. I'm going to do some of the Scottish islands this year and try to do it either side of the summer season when the tourists and the midgies ( local tiny mosquito type flies with a bite like Jaws) are less prevalent. That way I can stop and take photos and put the drone up without getting eaten alive.
@@MRTPR Strewth, forty degrees, doesn't the tar melt? I know I would!! Yes a bit like parts of Australia are plagued with flies, midgies outnumber them by millions. They don't like cold wet or windy days but in fair weather they're really really irritating. Even on your bike with your helmet on you need to outrun them, as soon as you stop they'll make a meal of any exposed skin. There are creams which deter them and many people wear mosquito hoods, still at least they're not deadly like Brown snakes. I thought about emigrating to Australia when I was eighteen. Then I discovered that out of the world's most poisonous snakes the rest of the world doesn't rank till eleven. Australia isn't so much in the top ten, it is the top ten 😱
33 degrees! 😒😒Lucky sod. Snowing here a few days ago and now minus 4 at night in my neck of the woods. Roo Island sounds and looks a great place. Great vid mate, stay safe
Sounds wonderful there. It is quite astonishing how nature bouncers back after a fire, we are used to seeing the Park Rangers here setting fire to strips of moorland as we live in a National Park, this is to encourage new growth and to help control wild fires. Do you know what those lilac coloured flowers are at the side of the road at 2,30 I saw quite a few of them as you were riding. It is a great experience to get that close to birds of prey, just awesome creatures, unfortunately we found a sick Sparrow Hawk chick at our house this week, it let me stroke it but was clearly unwell. Contacted the RSPB who said just leave it alone, went back outside to find the poor thing already dead, such a beautiful bird too. Ride safe and thank you for reminding us how nice and warm you are, we are at -6 with snow as I type this! 👍😂😂
Hello Mate those flowers are Agapanthus Africanus, very easy to grow here and they come in purple and white. They are very hardly and we have plenty in our garden at home. Just pop over and I would love to show you Kangaroo Island , well worth a visit. Sorry to hear about that poor little bird Mate.
A very detailed geographical description. I like it. A nice area I would say. Thanks for sharing it. Animals are just amazing to see in person. p.s. After the "attack" you had a very dirty visor. :)
KI is awesome, haven't been there for close to 30 years but spent alot time there in the early 80's surfing. No sealink then just the Troubridge if you took a car which was about an 8 hour trip.
My son lives in WA and I've been lucky enough to visit a couple of times. Australia in a wonderful country, I'm so envious of you guys who have the privilege to call it home. Great video Mr TPR, I always enjoy your efforts, thanks.
Well worth a visit mate. A touch expensive, if you want to take the car. I was riding through Echunga, Macclesfield and Mt Barker. Bolt mentioned that there is a bike night at the Brick works market this Saturday coming. I think it starts at 18:00, if I am free and able to make it I will turn up. Would be nice to meet some celebrities like you both in person. 😎
Good pick up, I have tried everything, as well as what you mentioned. The Suzuki dealer said it was an exhaust valve, I think (I am no mechanic) I ended up installing a servo buddy and by passing the servo motor. That has fixed it and the bike has a deeper note at low reeves and pulls harder. I need to take it for a proper test ride. No more F1 light so far, happy days. 😎 That you for your input, I appreciate it.
I've always been confused when people ask kangaroo. I mean, I'm sure it can. Also, am I the only dirty minded one, who thinks remarkable rocks picture looked like it was done under a breeding bull?
Hello mate, I am sure the kangaroo can. I have looked at the remarkable rocks photo and I can’t see a breeding bull any where. Thank you for checking it out 👍

That Brown snake would have ruined my trip. Such a nice place otherwise and is on my to do list one day.
Drop over mate and I will show you around. Luckily we avoided getting bitten by the snake, have seen a few in my time 😎
I would love to visit kangaroo island!
You should, you will love it 👍

Thank you. Yes what ever it was that hit my visor was massive. I had to stop and clean it as I couldn't see very well. Pleased I had the visor down 😁
@@MRTPR I believe you my friend. It is better to have it down.
Nice riding. Wouldn’t mind spending a day there.
Thank you mate. Great place to visit 👍
Great video thanks for sharing.
Thank you I appreciate it 😎

Thanks for sharing sounds like an amazing place 😎👌
It is come and visit some day. 😎.
@@MRTPR added to my list 😎👍🏼
Nice pic of you and your wife mate. It’s nice that 25% of the island is protected. Your fauna has too many things that can kill lol. Ride safe mate.
Really need to be mindful of the snakes and today is our 33rd wedding anniversary, a wonderful women, I think I will keep her 😎
@@MRTPR happy anniversary 🎂🍻
What an awesome place, I love all the photos of the animals... snakes less so lol 😀
Just pop over and I can show you around 😎

Hello.
Nice ride!
Kangaroo Island.
It's a lovely island!
I don't like snakes. LOL.
Thank you for showing me.
Thank you my friend.
Thank you, drop in for a visit some day. 😎
Sounds like a great time you had!
Just a wonderful time, didn't want it to end. 😎.
It looks gorgeous. But snakes 🫣
Lot of snakes over here, pop over, I would love to show you around 😎.
Very kind of you and that would be great. If only I could simply “pop over” 🤣
What a nice pic of you both! 💕
We have been married for 33 years now. I am a very lucky man. 😎
@@MRTPR 🤗🤗🤗 Awhhh.... We have been married 36 years.
I love ferry rides... That does sound like a pretty big island geographically.
The ferry ride was very rough but we made. 😎
@@MRTPR 👍👍👍
I love the FREE PONY POO at 5.24 freeze frame - You Aussies are great !
We love our pony poo😜
@@MRTPR Hahaha
I will have to add that to the list of places I would love to see if I had the money.👍
Just drop by, I would love to show you around 😜
👍✌
Thank you for dropping by 😎.
Awhhh.... seals! 🤗
They are wonderful to look at from a distance as they can get a bit cranky 😎.
@@MRTPR oh... Didn't know that
In all of the years I have lived in SA I have never been to KI ....I must go one day ....Where are you riding in this video?

I'm glad for the recovery post fire
The fire was dreadful, so pleasing to see how well it has recovered 😎.
@@MRTPR 👍👍👍
Hi will be putting this place on my list to see at some point .
Rolley :)
Thank you, it really is well with a visit 😎
Love K.I. A shame the ferry is expensive though.
Great place, yes you are right, the ferry is very expensive !
I noticed your check engine light was on. Was the code f1. You fix that by turning it and off for a minute? Thats what i do.

Koala's are very fantastic, bur have very long and big sharp claws. 😕
