Martha stop being so hard on yourself, your doing great, like you said only a month ago you had never ridden, enjoy it as every day you get more confident, there is nothing better than bike riding in stunning locations.
So true, thank you!
My favorite young couple. Martha you are doing so well. You should be so proud if yourself. Well done you two!!
Thank you!
Hi Martha and Mitch, another great video. Such a nice day for your off road adventure, Martha is doing really well. The countryside looks lovely, and you had good weather. You both had lots of fun on the bikes. I'm inspired to get my bike licence soon. Take care, best wishes, Tim Melbourne.
Our pleasure! Thanks Tim☺️
Absolutely amazing Martha, you doing good !! From passing yor test and doing tarmac, then going to this is just amazing.
Onwards and upwards. Good on ya Mitchell, great tutoring .
Em, you planned a great loop pal.
Thanks so much Guy!! Really appreciate it 🙏🏼
Someone's been binge watching c90 adventures and Itchyboots huh? Haha!
I'm new to the channel, not really into van life, (I respect it) but I'm bike crazy! Watching Martha's excitement for riding is like going back 30 years for me. You're both a lot of fun, love the support and enthusiasm from Mitch. Looking forward to what comes next.
Martha, you're doing great. See if you can focus more on your triumphs and let yourself be ok with making mistakes. You're doing incredible for a brand new rider!
Cheers from USA!
Hahah we love it all! Thanks so much for your comment, so glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Don't worry Martha I get my left and right mixed up too, especially under pressure! x
Haha im glad im not the only one, thank you!
Hi loving your videos keep up the good work use too . Mathea you just need to relax when riding your doing really well for a new rider.👏 just stop being hard on yourself just keep riding of road and it will come in time . In your video you said you have watched lots of roading. I’ve been following this lady and her TH-cam channel is called itchy boots . It might be something that you might benefit from watching her . Can’t wait for your next video guys take care the both you .
Thank you, we love itchy boots & I hope to ride as well as her one day🤞🏼 that’s the goal!
I would never have guessed that you had only been riding for a month. Riding off-road is quite different to riding on-road because you can’t guarantee that the grip will be constant. For that reason many experienced road riders find it hard to cope when the bike starts moving beneath them. You’re way beyond that position, well done. If you are unable to ride at the speed that you need to ride at because there’s somebody slow ahead, stop. Wait until you have a clear run then start again. If you’re that competent after a month it won’t be long before you’re up to tackling anything. If you want to see how people improve watch the Itchy Boots series where she flies to South Africa after the Covid lockdown. Noraly found riding on sand particularly difficult but after a bit of advice and a lot of practise it all came together. Look at her now. Everyone has to learn and you’ve made a great start. I was lucky, I rode on grass and mud for years before I could legally ride on the road. By going off-road so early in you motorcycling life you should progress faster than if you had spent years riding on grippy tarmac. 🙂🙂
Thank you, I really appreciate the comment. Noraly is an amazing rider and I’d love to be riding as good as her one day!
More super content, I’ll keep commenting as the world needs to see what’s coming. 🤞 for full time traveling and vlogging
Thank you so much🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great video. Awesome. And well done. 👍
Thank you 👍
Well done Martha . Im 53 years old . Ive been riding byways since i was 17 years old . Your doing great , and you've just done one of my favourite lanes . keep up the good work
Thanks so much!
Mitch is so good with you.Well done Martha, you’re smashing it 💪🏼
Thank you!!
Great video guys, and the ongoing commentary between you two as you ride is wonderful.
Thank you kindly!
Hi new to your channel loving your learning curve had to give up my endurance bikes and car due to a muscle wasting condition....so your journey riding gives me so exhilaration.... looking forward to following your adventures
Oh I’m sorry to hear that. So glad to know you’re enjoying the videos and watching my journey, really appreciate it.
Amazing effort and blog again guys! The World awaits! ❤
Thanks again!
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
You’re doing great Martha and Mitch is so encouraging. Amazing progress in such a short time. Doesn’t seem that long ago since you did your basic test 😮. And live hearing the wee yelps of excitement - makes me want to have a go but as I’ve only ridden a moped as part of my CBT I’m not sure that would work 😂
Thank you! I know, I only did my CBT in February! Crazy how fast it all happens, but love every minute of it. So worth ot
You should be mega proud of yourself ❤
My two favourite people ❤ wasn't today so beautiful. Then sun shining down ❤
Outstanding Martha! Very impressive. 💪
Thank you so much!
are you guys coming to the ABR festival, that 42km Bridgestone trail is the perfect off road for learning, well done Mitch in teaching Martha, you both doing well
Marth!! You are a legend this week ! Your doing so well keep it going looking forward to next week already !😊
Thanks so much!!
Great video guys
Thanks so much!
You're going really well on your motorbike Martha, good job
Thank you! 😃
I started just a few months ago offroad riding too it isnt as easy as it looks so hats off to you and you have a great coach riding with you wich will build your confidence so much .loved the video 😊
Thank you!
that was a nice ride and a joy to watch,cheers !
Many thanks!
your doing well girl just stick with it it will all be good in the end relax and enjoy
Thank you, I will
love this video so much ❤
Martha if you can do that in a month who knows what you’ll be able to do in a years time.
Sending our love from Dorset ❤
Thank you, I know, I’m soo excited!!
Martha you are hilarious😂, some of the things you come out with "Tractrrr', 'historical', "ah fly in my eye🪰, visor down"😂. Just a month in and you're smashing it and Mitch is a star. Can't wait for next video, Atb Dixie❤
Love that! 😂 thank you!
A great team .😊❤
I didn’t realise it was possible to watch a 21 minute video whilst holding my breath! 🥵 Had to remind myself to breath 😂😂😂. Terrific teacher and a mindful student = a great team. Cheers from Tasmania. Go well.
Hahaha sorry about that😅😂😂 thanks for watching!
You're riding so well Martha in such a short time. Mitch is such a good teacher and it shows he has the skills. What background does he have? I've wondered before when watching your earlier videos from some of his clothing whether he was into bikes or a skater 😅 I've rode Mx on and off most my life and what he's teaching is perfect body positioning 👍🏼 Just got to stop yourself from tensing up when you start panicking and gripping the throttle and whiskeying, grip with your legs. If you turn your feet inwards on the pegs you automatically grip with your knees ✊🏼
Thank you, he’s been riding enduro since he was a child so it’s all he’s ever known!
@@TheJammyGits it shows 👍🏼👍🏼
You are doing great on the bike, keep up the good work :)
Thanks, will do!
You are doing SO well Martha!! Don’t be hard on yourself. Have you watched ‘Long way round’ (my favourite) or ‘long way down’ with Ewan McGregor? Might inspire you some more! 😊 Also, the scenery was stunning again in this video. I miss the English countryside!
Thank you! Yes we’ve started watching it and are loving it so far!
Hey Martha,, your doing great,, I spent many years on trial bikes / road bikes etc and it take skill to ride on mud and hills your picking it up very well
Thank you!
Martha you are doing great, it will take a while to get more comfortable and relaxed so don't be hard on yourself.
Mitch you are being a great teacher but please remind Martha to ride on the left on the trails especially around blind bends. They could be another bike coming the opposite way much faster and the time to react won't be there just yet. Drop your pace a bit especially in the ruts and slop while you are learning 👍
Thank you, he did remind me in the video but I’ll be more careful.
@TheJammyGits great, I can relax now then 😁
Bloody hell Martha you should be so proud of yourself
Thank you!
Love you both, but not sure I can watch much more motorbike riding. Just sayin.
I know it's very exciting for you, but....
No problem, we know it’s not for everyone☺️
Well done maergaove yo
What MPG does these bike do generally? Insurance? Could you do a top tips video for anyone thinking of starting bikepacking?
Thanks
"I can't even Shring a sentence together" hahhahaah sent me :')
Good job again Marth ur so cool
Sooo tiring 😅😅 hahah I’ll ask him and see if he can dig anything out!
I’m not a motorbiker🏍️ I have a question- why do you sometimes stand up? 😊
Looking good on those Honda's 👍 if you are interested I have a Trelgo duo motorcycle trailer for sale.
Nice one! We are after an enclosed trailer but cheers!
So we noticed you haven’t posted a video this week, is everything ok with you guys ? As a fellow biker my obvious concerns come to the fore ? Please let us know you are both ok ? Geordie, Kate, Dylan and Dutch the dogs
We're all good! Just had a lot to prepare for leaving in the van again. We will be back on sunday!
Great look forward to your adventures
Clutch n throttle control Marthe. your killing it ;-)
Doing well Martha you are so f#£king fit on my days
Sorry Mitch Martha you are stunning
Absolutely smashing it again Martha Mitch is a great teacher 🤙
Thank you!
Try knee high Goretex socks to lin your boots Martha. They will help dry your boots of as well. They are expensive but last donkeys years, my ones lasted 11 years and going strong.
I have some on in this video that I mention at the start, trying the sealskinz waterproof socks and they’ve been really good so far
Spent many happy weekends "green landing" in the Peak District. Some times in Land Rovers sometimes on XR650R (Which was way too big for trail riding. Pig to start after falling off with no electric start). All bikers should learn to off road, it makes you a more rounded rider. We used to do a Christmas run with about 40 bikes! Brilliant fun and happy memories.
Great video! Love seeing your authentic journey! Congrats on the towbar, let us know which trailer you get, as I am looking to get one also as I would like to take my adventure bike to Portugal (as well as around the uk)
Thank you! Will do!
I had to sell my XR400 because I felt like everyone hates off roaders, ..all the angry farmers, walkers, horseriders….but mainly because byways and route are so hard to find.
What a fun video! And I can relate, as last weekend I got myself for the first time on proper trails! If you can I'd highly recomend attending to ABR Festival, here in the UK- there are tons and tons of likeminded people, mostly motorcyclists, who ride trails, travel on the bikes, or both, and more! I attended two so far and it was a blast!
Martha, your hands down the coolest chick on TH-cam, period!
Absolutely brilliant tutor absolutely brilliant pupil .. Martha, I can’t believe the leaps and bounds you are taking :. Next level. .. I know you can’t wait for your travels but trust me I can’t wait either. Love you both xx
Thank you so much!
You’ll be ready for Africa soon 😉😃🍻
Just came across your channel and watched this vlog. I can't believe Martha, that you are only riding a month, amazing 👏👏👌🏍💨 you guys are so lucky to have green laning as its not allowed here in NI 😢 will be going back now to watch all previous vlogs 😀
Thank you so much!!😄
Really enjoying this journey of yours, Martha you don’t need an enduro pro , even tho you may think you do, you need Mitch , what a great instructor, you just need to ride, not lessons, most motorcycle adventurists don’t do what you have done and it will get easier and become second nature, don’t waste your money and stop apologising , now is the prime to to flog that van and start your adventures, tour the uk and Scotland , wales wherever just ride. Get the UK summer outta the way, I’ve heard it will be nice with no rain for 3 days in July 🤣🤣🤣 and then head to warmer climes in Autumn.
Hahaha thank you
you're a pro
I enjoyed what I watched so I'm subing. 👍
Awesome, thank you!
Do the TET ( Trans Enduro Trail) The videos you guys would make would be awesome!
That’s the plan!!
At the end I was unsure you looked more tired . Well done on that trail, I was out in the peaks hiking and it was so muddy and slippery. You both are doing great, and it will not be long till you are both back out on the road doing what you love
Thank you!
Proud of you Martha and proud of Mitch being a great boyfriend and supporter 💖
Thank you❤️
Well done guys keep it up Martha you doing so well to say only month ago was riding love the video and Im a new subscriber happy to be here and watch hope to see more soon guys ❤
Welcome aboard! Thanks for subbing!!
You are doing really well, remember if you are going to fast you can loosen your grip on the throttle and let it return back to reduce speed along with a little bit of rear brake, gentle is better
Thank you
👍
I've been riding since i was 10yrs old now 54yr. don't be so hard on yourself you're doing exceptionally well. but for both of you should really not stand so much think about riding for 10-14 or more hours in a day, do you really want to do that standing or sitting. only need to stand if you think things might get a little intense. personally I can feel what the bike is doing with my butt and standing is a killer on the arms wrist, plus you can lift your feet when going through puddles they'llstay dry.... well done ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)
We sit down a lot but just haven’t filmed them bits, the standing is more to just get Martha used to being up and feeling the bike at the moment
she has a good teacher, your very good at explaining how and why thinks should be done. happy trails......@@TheJammyGits
You are doing brillantly well Martha, absolutely super star stuff. You are in fantastic hand with Mitch and there are amazing adventures to come, so well done both 👋👌👍😃
I have been watching since you started the bike thing. Very good videos..very impressed with your progress so far so fast. (I very been riding off road since I was 7, so 48 years) I can honestly say you are natural.
One tip for your run away throttle is to always have the pointy finger on the front brake (&clutch) ALL the time. It restricts your forearm from as much rotation in the wrist and so stops the whisky throttle. Will be painful to do for a while but will be easier and more natural over time.
2nd tip for this time of the years ... where trousers that go over the boots asit stops the water going in the top.
Enjoy 😊
Thanks so much, I’ll try this tip out. We do have some waterproofs which I’ll carry on wearing whilst it’s still so wet out!
Please be careful! Please please please!
Pretty sure we passed you on good Friday, you closed the gate for us which was much appreciated!
Ah nice, no problem!✌🏼
Well done Martha!
Enjoyed that. The bikes sound really good and tight. For the riding school, it may be a good idea to rent their bikes, as they are lighter and less loaded and have the carbon fibre engine protector. It's great that you guys can talk to each other whilst riding. The anorak gang will never smile at motorbike riders.
Why rent bikes? The CRF is perfect for that use. I certainly wouldn’t want carbon fibre crash protection, it’s far too fragile when knocked and very expensive to repair.
@@davidmatthews3093 Nope, the bikes they have are too heavy for the true off road technical bits. I had the CRF X, there is also the R (motocross), but the L is a hybrid road bike. The X is around 117kg. I think the L is around 60kg heavier. Ride up rock ditches at 45 degrees with water coming down at you and you will see the difference. The carbon under engine is there for a reason. Let's agree to disagree.
Great watching you grow Martha , cracking job , give yourself some credit 👏x
Thanks so much!
Well done Martha, you did a fantastic job, your riding is coming on leaps and bounds. Keep practicing and it will all become second nature. You can definitely finish the loop, the last lane is the only sloppy one after where you got too, you were nearly there! 🤓(Em)
Thanks Em, really appreciate it. We’ll be redoing it so I can complete it now then😀
I can’t believe how much you’ve improved Martha in such a short time . Well done . I think I’m enjoying your riding as much as you are. Ride safe .X
Thank you😀
Really really well done Martha, coming on leaps and bounds! Good teaching Mitch. Cannot wait for the future adventures. x
Thanks so much!
Don’t beat yourself up Martha your doing brilliant what a lady so much achieved in such a short time x
Thank you!
Martha making little noises going through all those puddles made me laugh, you can just tell she was having such a good time 😂 Keep up the good work you are absolutely smashing it!!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
Well done Martha doing superb. Mitch teaching you well.
Thanks so much
Amazing progress in the space of one month, you can be proud of yourself Martha.
Thank you!
wow, what a different rider Martha, well done you, Good tutoring Mitch
Thank you! 😃
You two are having a blast. It’s nice to see your progress Martha and well done you make a good team.
Thanks so much!
stay in the rut your in , never try to cross rut halfway down a trial , if you have to slow right down and try and make a tight turn , aim for 90 degrees to reduce washing the front. also never go round a blind corner on the righthand side , somebody could be coming towards you.
if you have the budget get a airbag for mad martha as learning to ride dirt you will fall quite a lot and dont want you to get injured. Pretty good skills so far , enjoy yourselves
Thanks for the tips & for watching the video!
