  • Hi Folks!
    I was invited to ride at Triumph's Adventure Riding Experience in South Wales!
    I tell you what, riding off-road challenge me as much mentally as it does physically.
    I often battle with a voice in my head that constantly tells me I'm rubbish and why do I bother. Life is an internal struggle when you are a perfectionist that is never perfect!
    So as you can see, I dropped the bikes... LOTS. But you know what, luckily I was surrounded by amazing people who just kept reminding me that it's about having fun and taking part and if you drop it... SO WHAT! Who cares! Triumph Adventure Riding Experience staff certainly don't as they know it is inevitable. They do care that you aren't harmed though which is nice!!
    I really did push myself and I'm proud of what I achieved that day.
    It is a school that I would highly recommend for growing your skills in ways you didn't think possible!
    If you are interested in inquiring further about this day, you can do so here:

    Anyway, enough rambling - I just hope you enjoy it!
    Thanks for watching...

    Absolutely killing it Kate! Can do nothing but admire your sheer determination and "have a go" attitude. Massively inspiring!

    Kate, you are absolutely fearless! New skill set, new terrain, strange bike, And in the wet. Any one of those conditions would intimidate any rider, and you charged right in on all of them. Watched the whole video smiling ear to ear.🥹And you didn’t scratch the van!😎 Absolute Boss!!!🤘🏻

    • @UsernameKate
      @UsernameKate  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Haha almost!!! Almost scratched it 😬 aww thanks Tom! Appreciate all your kind words 🙏

    @bonerfi9254 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Considering the size and weight of that beast, you did an damn good job!
    I've got an 800 XC ABS. I'm 5'9". The bike moving is great. Stopped and on wet ground, it always has my heart rate up and feet slipping.
    Thanks for keeping the spills in the vid. Proper spirit.

    • @UsernameKate
      @UsernameKate  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Oh James, at one point I thought... nooo way, I can't do another lap.. maybe just one more! And everything I thought that... the instructor stopped haha. My frustration with myself is embarrassing but I am who I am I guess (that has its pros and cons! 😅)

    • @jameshutchins3396
      @jameshutchins3396 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@UsernameKate plenty of pros from what I have seen so far. When you dropped the bike the second time even knocking over another bike I thought well this is over. You proved me wrong and kept going so I found myself saying hell yes! Get it girl!
      You honestly listen to instruction and give it as much as you can to implement what you learn. Much humility there and that's a good thing, a very good thing. And you push through fear, that rocks.

  • @bongyakwui
    @bongyakwui 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Well done Kate. Surprise your instructor never started by telling everyone to keep safe distant while off-roading. 1st rule is never follow other riders or stopping your heavy bike too close to each other.

  • @tonyvidtube
    @tonyvidtube 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not a bike for O.A.P's with short legs or dainty ladies, clearly. I laughed out loud when you took two bikes out. Much admiration for you taking on the 1200 beast.

    Could barely watch this - in that very place, and in similar mud in 2019, I fell off a GS (whilst training): multiple rib fractures, 6 months to get over it and developed a deep vein thrombosis of the shoulder along the way - for which I'm still being treated. Oh well, at 65 it's led me to cross learning to hang glide off the bucket list ha ha. You did brilliant!

    Much respect to you Kate, for showing your experience on the new Triumph tiger a big bike off road , especially if you have never done off road before.It’s quite remarkable you tried it and persevered with it and could see progress towards the end. I ts also good PR for Triumph, showing even non experienced riders vertically challenged still could manage the coarse.You did yourself proud , and was a great insight into going on a off road coarse.My first off road experience was on a 650 triumph scrambler bike , I’m 6: 2 ,was falling off also and very tense.You did well ❤️🏍🇸🇪🙏

    Really wet nightmare, but I think you did excellent on a bike that isn’t fitted for you. You should not worry about the bike. Drops and falls are expected in these conditions. It’s amazing to see you push yourself and also those other riders did so to. Maybe one day I’ll try this myself, kinda go back to my younger days of riding in the woods on moped.
    Be safe like that and have fun 👍🏼 Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Well done for giving this a go, this particular Triumph Tiger 1200 video went down extremely well 👍🙃 if you'll pardon the pun 😂 I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Charlie Boredman getting a good drenching. I'm bored to tears with every TH-cam video starting with his "I'd like to introduce you to Quadlock" So glad he got the chance to try it out in the heavy rain, I hope he also tried it out horizontally a few times.

    I admire how you have no fear of jumping on any bike no matter how tall and heavy they are ( Massive respect). Being only 5 ft 4 myself I still can not pluck up the courage to ride any other bike than my own 😔. Hey at least you didn't get toe cramp this time ( Yes that is a thing ) 😉👍

    Fab vid! I just wish motorcycle manufacturers would make more lower bikes for us shorter folk. There is no way I would’ve gone to do what you did, even if they’d of said they’d give me a brand new bike after it, the fear of not touching the floor would’ve been too much. So I take my hat off to you for doing it!

    Well done, Kate. You were, definitely, much better by the end of the day. A big challenge for you being so petite and a big bike in the wet ( very wet ) I did an off road course weekend at Sweetlamb a couple of years ago. They told us to use our new skills or lose them. They were right. I haven't done any off road since and my confidence has, definitely, waned. Get out there on another off road course ASAP and, maybe get yourself a dirt bike so you can get a bit of practice with your boyfriend. I wish I'd kept up the dirt bike practice. Now. I'll have to do another course.

      You know what Geoff, I think I'll go down the trials bike route as a personal bike. But no, it's soooo true. I don't use it for a week and I've 'lost' it haha!
