    Hello everyone, welcome to the beginning of my solo trip around Europe where I'll be travelling through Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and France. It took my exactly 3 years until this trip became a reality, and since I had never traveled before, you can imagine how excited I'm about this. For those who are planning their first big trip or planning to explore these countries I hope you find this interesting, helpful and inspiring.
    In this episode I'm leaving Brighton and for the first time I'm taking my Africa Twin out of UK.

    Awesome!! So jealous! Would love to do a trip like this! Been looking at the ATs but sadly they're out of my budget. Looking at a versys 650 at the moment...

    I can appreciate how much work went in to that 12 minuet video, well done. The drone shots were very good. I have just got back from a solo trip round Europe too 15 countries in 10 days. Very basic filming though. I really enjoyed Bosnia, Romania and Croatia. Looking forward to your next vid.

    I’m planning a Euro motorcycle trip from New Zealand next year, I’m just having trouble finding motorcycle insurance, I have rented a motorcycle before In Europe but this trip is going to be longer and a rental is way to expensive

      Thanks Billy 🙂 these bags are UK brand LOMO. Excellent quality for the price. They are twice as cheap as the Kriega or Givi bags but they are out of stock at the moment. They sell very quick once in stock.

      That's okey. I will definitely make a video about my set up and will be coming straight after these series. But for now I can tell you I used gopro 9 and gopro 10 and drone DJI mini 2. Helmet is Klim Krios Pro.

    Nice video to start tour Eurotrip journey! I thought the Africa Twin came with heated grips as standard - how are you finding the Oxford grips? What is the gap in years from your first scooter to getting your Africa Twin?

    • @mike-on-the-bike
      @mike-on-the-bike  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks 🙂 I have the 2016 model of AT and that didn't come with heated grips. Probably the new ones do. The Oxford grips are absolutely fine. Can't complain about that. They do the job. I had the scooter for a year and then jumped straight away to AT DCT from one day to another.

      @@ReallyItsJustJack I did a test ride the other day with 2022 DCT and I have to admit it has improved a lot in 6 years. Really nice and easy handling, it's much smoother then mine, breaks are brilliant, plus with all the new technology built-in... incredible mashine!!!. You won't be disappointed. And don't be afraid jumping from scooter to AT, just treat it with respect as it is much bigger and faster bike and take it easy from the beginning and you'll get use to it very soon. Enjoy it and ride safe 🙂
