- Join me on my first off road adventure, as I try an around 50 km section of the Hungarian Trans Euro Trail (TET). Along the route I'm getting humbled by deep sand, slippery grass, deep ruts and bad cambers. Even the midpoint fall didn't discourage me from finishing what I set out to do. I return home, with one of the best rides of my life so far, behind my back. It's a real thrill to finally get off tarmac and try dirt riding.
The GPX tracks are avaliable online on the TET website: transeurotrail.org/
The video was recorded on TET_HU Track 5, from Gyúró to Sárkeresztes. If you decide to ride these trails in any country in Europe please pay attention to the possible changes, private property, always ride a road legal bike and of course obey all local laws and regulations. Also please be considerate of the locals living along the route, and any other travelers you encounter. So we can keep riding these tracks in the future!
Lot's of thanks to the linesman keeping the tracks up to date!

I want to ride the tet for the first time next year! Thank you for the video!
Good luck man! It’s an adventure for sure, just ride sensibly and it’ll be fine. And look out for sand ;) So you don’t have to pick apart your helmet to get rid of the sand, like I did.
Nice, good riding man, and excellent video!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
i've got the same bike... WOW.. maybe it is not the best for the TET .. it doesn't have a lot of suspension travel ... Kudos to you ..
Thank you! I was riding pretty reserved, what I noticed is, that the main problem wasn’t really suspension travel, but rather just belly height. On bumps where the bash plate has enough clearance it seemed fine, even with my weight.
