WOW, WOW WOW ! **I adore your sense of adventure and your intrepid spirit that allows you to go where no man, woman or LDV has ever gone before. You were privileged to have gone here and so were we to have been able to go there with you, albeit it was digitally! An incredible adventure, that most will only ever be able to dream of. Thank you both for your willingness to share such breathtaking experiences**
The things you put that LDV through and places you go just amazes me whilst also setting off my anxiety 😂 I love watching your adventures and always look forward to the next upload. The information you include and quality of your videos are second to none 💚 Keep doing what you're doing guys, you two are awesome! Also, when the Convoy finally retires it should definitely find a home in a motoring museum ❤
I have watched you guys for a while and always loved your adventurous genuine content. I am blown away by these videos lately though. I wish I had the know how and tallent to create these scenes and tell stories like you guys. It's captivating. Really good job. This place is on the bucket list for sure as we travel further east. Why you don't have 100k or 1 million subscribers I don't know.
Oh thanks so much! That’s really lovely of you to say 🥰 Honestly we’re super happy with how these videos have come out on this trip and we’ve learned so much from making them, even if they don’t get a lot of views. It’s comments like these that make us want to keep creating videos so thankyou ☺️
Thank you! On one of our recent videos you can see the wood-burner set up we've got inside, and we've got a fairly old van tour on our page too, not much has changed in it over the years. We'll try and incorporate some more interior bits in to future videos too
@@FromRustToRoadtrip Fantastic. I've see your great wood burner addition. Your van has such a character and I enjoy following your many exciting adventures.
What an absolutely wonderful video! It was like a movie! The whole time,I was wishing I was in your van with you! Magnificent beauty! Your so lucky! But so are we,because you share your journey. Very safe guys! Much love!
Epic! Loved this episode, which highlights your multi-talented skills as travel documentarians. Film quality shots. Looking forward to the next one in Armenia.
Fantastic! Again! I bet your hearts are in your mouths on occasions when you're in these remote locations and you're completely depending on your van getting you through. Mine sometimes is, and all I'm doing is watching....
Thank you! Yeah honestly we were pretty nervous at moments out there with no signal, things could have gone horribly wrong at moments. Thankfully we made it out the other side!
Brilliant. I wonder how many Brits have been to that National Park? Great cinematography and music selections. When you did the "Top Gear" fastest runway trip did you get above 50mph?
A couple on here called going the whole Hogg who are from Scotland I think, visited the park but other than that I’m not sure. Thank you 🙏 no, I think we got to about 25mph 🤣 it was very bumpy!
Just by chance I found your post on Facebook and took time to watch your video on You tuve. I am without Word to connecting this unbelievable, wonderful Video. . The Film with lots of drone parts, I could feel you bring afraid of the next moment. Your feelings about the wilderness and being alone in the nowwhere. Thanks you very much for it.
Aw thanks so much! We’re so happy you took the time to check out our video 🥰 Getting way it into nature is our favourite thing, it brings a true sense of freedom and excitement! Next up we have some videos from Armenia, in a few week’s time once we’ve put them together ☺️
So beautiful! We were supposed to go to Azerbaijan this summer for the mongol rally but postponed it til next year. After watching this I can’t wait 😍 loved your adventure, new followers here!
Ah what a shame it's been postponed! We've ALWAYS loved the idea of taking part in the rally. It looks like so much fun! Best of luck to you both when it does finally go ahead 💪 thanks for joining us over here 🚎
Great video! Shame about the views and TH-cams BS algorythms. Me and My wife live in Hoi An Vietnam, and love sitting behind the projector to watch your amazing footage. Thanks so much!
It's a bit of a drain on morale seeing how little reach they get but we really love creating these episodes and it's lovely to read so many nice comments people leave too. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
You both knock my back packing trip around Europe outta the park with this latest awesome footage. Stunning views and documentary style commentary. TH-cam pioneers, in to unknown territory. - great channel. I especial like your cinematic footage. 100% recommend watching. Awesome couple.
Oh thanks so much for your lovely comment! That means a lot 😄 We’re always striving toward a more documentary style with what we do so we’re really happy it shows 😄
Epic video, as usual! I would love to know what went on the ranger's head when they saw a blue van coming in his direction 😂 I was also wondering how do you guys manage to charge all of your gear, since you hadn't had much sun this winter. Thank you for sharing such inspiring content 🙏
Thank you so much, and for joining us over on Patreon too! Honestly they seemed a bit confused to see us rocking up at dusk haha We do struggle to charge stuff during the winter, more so at the moment because the recent cold snap has killed our leisure batteries, they hold no charge anymore so we'll be replacing them when we get back to the UK. By default, what we do requires LOTS of power so we'll be looking at upgrading the batteries this time for sure. For now though, we have to run the engine a while every day or just charge everything up when we're driving. Idling the engine has been pretty detrimental to the engine most likely and as she's getting older and older it's certainly not doing it any favours idling for so long
Well done on your truly epic adventure !! Its great to see the LDV still going strong, most people would have given up on it years ago, i'm so glad you didn't . Your filming is top notch, look forward to seeing where your off next, safe travels ✌
Thanks so much! It’s crazy to think our van was nearly scrapped a few years ago, the things we’ve done with it since! There’ll be a bit of a gap until our next videos, which will be in Armenia 😄
Another Gr8 video bagged ☺ I will replay sometime to garner more material for the Poem 🤔🤗😶🌫🤪 I think you said this is your last 1 rust, or did you say your going onto Armenia ?? 🤔🤔
I was travelling from Georgia to Armenia by hitchhiking, went next to lake Sevan, went to Armenian city/town Goris… and i think i saw you guys passing me haha… like a week ago
I would say you have a leak on your fuel delivery system and the fuel runs back to tank when left standing for a few hours. It happened on my LDV and it was the pipe as it comes out the tank.
We did actually have that problem back in Turkey and they remade all the fuel lines and put new elbow pieces on too. We later found out that this issue was the timing had slipped quite a lot. It's running much smoother now, apart from a suspected failing turbo 😅
WOW! You guys are next level intrepid explorers! I can't believe the vastness of Vashlovani national park. So glad you were there to get high quality drone footage of it! My mind is officially blown. I thought I knew Georgia but this is something else. One question though... what is a badland?!
Aaw thanks so much Holly! 😄 That makes us really happy to hear. Crazy how Georgia can have mountains over 4,000m high and then this little-known desert area in the east, such a vast country of contrasts. And a badland is a particular type of soft clay rock that’s been eroded into canyons and rock formations by wind and rain, commonly associated with deserts I think. It also just sounds really cool 😁
The most "Famous" badlands are in the Dakotas in the USA. I believe the term was used because they were very difficult to travel across and they were very infertile.
Hi Rust, How did you get on with your wheel arch hole that appeared ! Did you use the P45 or similar to fix it ? It seems to be holding up now for this trip.
Hey Mike, this was all filmed before that happened. But we haven’t fixed it yet, we’re waiting until we get to Turkey again in a few weeks time and we’re going to get a whole load of welding done. There’s nobody here willing to touch it
I have gone out to the edge of arid lands in a 10 year old 2WD van so get the risk involved on this adventure. So many small things could stop you and, without cell…. My own adventures have all been in the Southwest of the States, where there are more options and people, though similarly full of beautiful empty. It strikes me that these landscapes may be more exotic to people who are from Europe, because they are not as common as they are in the US in the west. You have to drive through a moat of desert lands to drive from California anywhere, except to the Pacific Northwest.
We do envy the amount of freedom and open space you have in the U.S.! Deserts and badlands are a total novelty to us, so they’re extra exciting when we get to visit one! We’d love to visit the States one day and roadtrip through Utah, Washington and wherever the Hot springs National park is 😍
Oh no! Haha 😅 I’m sorry to tell you this guys, but they don’t allow trucks / overlanders into the park 😢 You could always rent an UAZ or 4x4 from Tbilisi though! Even so, the whole area around the park is fantastic (Shiraki plain), and you should definitely go! ☺️
Ahh yeah 😔 I think we might’ve made a mistake putting that clip in there.. I feel like I might’ve misrepresented it a bit without realising. I don’t think those guys were supposed to be there unfortunately. The good thing is though there are similar spots in the region without restrictions and they’ve got really cool centuries old monasteries. We can share some cool places with you and also @Going the whole Hogg have some wicked trails listed on their website too
Tanfastik 😊. Good the snow has gone .. a Pity ye couldn't continue on / politics unfortunately/ Ship the Van Turkey to Pakistan !!! But ye need a Carnet du Passage in Pakistan n beyond .. The LDV done ye proud once again ..😊 Stay Free and Safe Travels 😀 👍 🙏 ✨
Cheers Mike! It's been quite a wild ride with this van and we can't wait to return to this region soon, with a different vehicle much more capable of the terrain. But she's done us well nonetheless! Definitely looking at ways to get further East so will check that out. Thanks 🚎
I think I just caught the moment your Van went Cr*&n%ch ! prob causing that hole. I think you've got a sterling ol' van there and it should be given a Medal Of Honour when you return. Or at least a badge of honour.
We took a look at the poem earlier but couldn’t see an update on there. Is it attached to the same file? We have kindle subscription so don’t need a free day
@@FromRustToRoadtrip Hi Guys, I thought you said last time you couldn't gain access ? as per the Amazon community guideline image you sent the other day - or am I missing something.
@@FromRustToRoadtrip Yes, its update 7 now so you should see about another 10 verses including the mention of the Supra and Polyphonic singing - you might have to reread it as its not been bolted on at t he end, but integrated seamlessly into the previous version
Ok we’ll take another look tomorrow. No, I didn’t say we couldn’t gain access, we just can’t leave reviews for some reason, due to not meeting a threshold or something.
We could’ve, but the journey for us was how far we could reach with our van, and we have an unfortunate paranoia about being broken in to due to previous events.
also the color correction is little bit of. Maybe get rid of that LUT you are using or lowers it´s gain. But pump up the saturation and greens to make it feel more like a reallife
