Been waiting patiently to binge watch these episodes all in one go but finally caved today. These are by far my favourite videos on TH-cam. Thank you both keep up the amazing content
Wow thanks Josh… the good news is we will have about 30 episodes of this tour to keep you entertained 3 times a week!
@@ontheroadadventure whaaaaaaat? Im so looking forward to this. Big fan of your videos so much so I’ve got my grandad into them. He’s been doing trips around Europe on his bike for years now. His next trip in late may is to the alps of France and Italy on his 1960 Honda CL450 im buzzing for him.
Sounds like your old man is a bit of a legend! You should get a similar bike to join him on his adventures
“Would never say McDonalds is a decent meal” you crack me up! Portugal looks amazing!! Make some serious exhaust noise in the mornings to piss off noisy campers 🤷♂️ it’s sweet revenge 😉 loving the videos 👍👍👍
Lol if only we were ever up and ready early enough to wake anyone else!
A bit late but.....
When you get home, check out wind rider seat covers....
It will stop all that backside hurting on long ride days..... Just a tip...
Really enjoying your tour.
Stay safe and sticky side down.
Hi Jason, I have seen these advertised do you rate them then?
Very easy enjoyable watch. 👍
Thanks for Joining us John, hope you like the moto camping series 👍
The N2 and Portugal is now on my to ride list
We don’t blame you! Get it done 👍
@@ontheroadadventureyour videos are mint busting to do this run really appreciate your content, got my Portugal maps out but can’t find n2, keep at it outstanding
Another great vid thanks - I look forward to every episode, thanks again for keeping us entertained,
Thanks for watching! Without you guys all watching and commenting etc the channel would not be growing as it is.
Can’t wait to show you the next episodes in the glorious sunshine
Earplugs are the kiddie. I wouldn't go camping without them. I have to say looking at campsites in Europe, on this and other channels I watch, they are pretty different from those in the UK. I don't know if that is good or bad or if it even matters, just an observation really. The N2 is still delivering the goods though, amazing.
We found the camp sites vary massively in price and quality but something we were not prepared for was gravel and stone pitches
@@ontheroadadventure The gravel and stone is what I have spotted on lots of occasions. It's as if they are putting tents on a caravan / camper van pitch. I have not ever had that in the UK but I get the impression it's not that unusual in Europe.
More often than not I’m afraid
Nice to sit back, relax and watch a great video, excellent banter looking forward to the next one.👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for joining us on the road
Thanks for sharing Portugal with us 🤓😎🏍💨💨💨💨💨🇨🇦🍻from bc
Our true pleasure John, one of our favourite places to have ridden ever so far!
nice one again both
Thanks Allan, we can’t wait to show you faro moto clube
Well I guess there's no chance of squaring your tyres off on the N2!! Maccies is my go to every time I'm out on my bike, always a lot of bikers at there as it is close to the "Rutland TT", just a decent circuit around Rutland in the Midlands. Awesome sunset captured on the drone, I hope you had a dump 💩outside the noisy folks tent before you left! 🤣
Lol that’s just evil…. But what a great plan!!
Have fun guys, nice to hear you feel blessed for a trip like this ❤
Everyday on the bike is a good day! We love it so much
Fair play you two, I thought you’d give up by day 3 of camping 😅
If im honest i thought we would too but when the sun is shining, moto camping is just awesome
Great videos 👍👍👏
Thanks John 🫡
always entertaining. Top job. The intro has become very pro, great editing. If it's any consolation I am not that far away from home and the weather has been shite, at least you have warm rain
:-). Stay safe, i'm looking forward to the next episode.
Thanks so much, we try to make small improvements all the time. We will nip down south and fetch the sun back with us to the uk
You two are rocking it now and to top it off grass soup showing us the high life
All the high end cuisines here bud
Amazing trip today. My partner karen really wanted a Mcdonalds in agadir but closed for ramadan. You said road goes up and up......try morocco mate! You think you going into space. We need to do a trip together with our partners. And so positive too! Where is mr grumpy cos he has been replaced by mr almost happy and smiley!
We will be up for touring morocco Soon, we thought about going over on this trip but we want to give Africa the time it deserves without rushing. The Sun seems ti be getting to Rich and making him a very happy man indeed!! Thanks so much for joining us, Hope you love the moto camping series
Hiya. We follow you on the tv TH-cam app so it doesn’t allow us to comment but we can like.
Just know that we look forward to every episode you post. Have a great time.
Thanks so much for joining us, We hope to keep you entertained for some time 👍
Vent accessories is my olds man business he’s set up in Leicester! Fair play to him. His name is Richard, thought he was a grumpy git 🤣🤣
Despite getting on abit now he’s just recently started to ride again👌
lol must be a Richard thing…. People think I’m grumpy too at times lol We are legends really 😂
Love your videos!
Glad you like them!
It might not be the cuisine of choice, but you can always get coffees there, and the facilities are usually ckean. Free WiFi, too. Have their uses!
The soup might be caldo verde. Basically potato with strips of cabbage. A national dish!
Bakeries ( Padaria) are a good choice for pitstops. All sorts of fresh savouries as well as cakes and pastries. Usually good coffee too.
Ride safe 👍
Yeah mcdonalds Is never quality but you know what your getting… well mostly anyway
I would just like to say your drone footage is by far the best I have seen on TH-cam it's so good you must be a professional videographer well done
Wow thanks so much, I promise you I’ve nothing but hours of practice
It just shows practice makes perfect
@@user-fw3ph9fg8i Thanks ☺️
Keep up the good work.nice video.thanks
Thanks, will do!
I rode through a mountain pass once where clouds came in and I could barely see in front of me. Not going to lie it was amazing!
Best thing I seen was wild horses halfway up the mountain, their hair so long it was on the ground and they were in my path so I had to stop and just admired them. Great experiences travelling by bike
This is exactly what it’s all about, experience the unexpected
You both have laminated membrane waterproof jackets, so why carry additional waterproofs. All they will do is create condensation when worn and excess bulk when not worn. My laminate jacket is 100% waterproof, but if I open the waterproof zips, The airflow is good for 35c days.
For us the additional waterproofs have several advantages besides ensuring we are kept dry and our textiles do not fail in hours of relentless rains. They give a additional layer of warmth, protection from the winds and at night our waterproof layers are Oxford Bright seal which glow brightly in the dark which increases our visibility and safety
Absolutely brilliant guys really enjoyed
Amazing thanks John
Ear plugs only for sleeping? Surely not. You will destroy your hearing if you ride without ear protection. Best most comfy option is fitted plugs. And cheapest is Hospital Audiology Clinic and something called Swim Plugs - about £40. Nearly half the price of the cheapest retail - same quality, better fitted and don't irritate half as quick as the stuff you bought. And can be used at night of course along with a neck muff over your eyes because hotels always have poor curtains
We like to use ear plugs on the bike if we have to do motorway but generally we like to ride the small roads. Not such luck for hotel curtains on this tour!
Keep going guys .Be safe ,sooner or later the Sun's going to come out .👍😎
Thanks chris, we will keep going until we find it!
New subscriber to your channel and recently purchased an atas.
Love your honest down to earth opinions and adventures. Enjoy your trip and stay safe!
Welcome! Thanks for joining us, you will love the AT
Keep your chins up guys.....hot sunshine is not far away....
Feels like we are always chasing from a day away!
Never ridden in Portugal yet..been there on hols once ..loved it.
By far our favourite place yet to ride
Looks like you took the english weather with you Portugal looks awesome even so.
Seems that way! But if we ride long enough we will find that damn sun!
Another great video, shame you are getting rain like here in the UK I assumed it would be lot warmer and drier over there. Great drone footage added to the enjoyment.
Thanks so much for joining us, we will find what’s happened to that thing in the sky…
Fun is being had, hope you got a nights sleep.
In the end it wasn’t too bad, it’s the troublemaking camp sites, you don’t know what your getting until you have already arrived
Rain rain rain 😱 and a mceydees 👍👍👍great roads and scenery, plenty of great banter from you both 😂😂 Happy camping both, get the kettle out. Better still have a beer your both deserve it. Ride safe both , won't be lo g before yoy get in the sun. Pull that plug out 😂😂
Cheers Nigel we are getting there, South Portugal is the place to be we are told! 🌞
You'll love it , it's absolutly beutiful and usually very warm 😉
Ahh the warmth of sun on our faces… the thing of dreams
I love the quality high end conversation about grass soup and a lovely moggy having a shit
What can we say… we are all a special bunch 😂
You are great, I wish you success
Thanks so much
You're welcome
Ewa is definitely right mc slop is never a decent meal. Did you pull their tent pegs out or start the bikes about 6 to give them a wake-up call.
Camping seems to be a good way to punish your self.
Lol we won’t call it punishment but a personal challenge period…
Still enjoyable to watch despite the rain guys. How much would a hotel cost per night? Just wondering with my arthritis 😂😂😂...
In Portugal it’s pretty cheap!
Thanks
Wow thanks for supporting the channel John! Your amazing 🫡
Soup: Would it be fair to say you don't do vegetables? 😁. I don't do fast food burgers but I thought the whole concept of those places was that wherever you were in the world it would be the same so you know what you're getting. 🤷🏼♂️
No McDonald’s is different in each country, so curiosity always gets us…
Bedankt
Wow thank you so much for supporting the channel!!!
How many miles have you done so far ? Not sure I could manage 8 hours of riding but then I’m getting on a bit😊
Do as many miles as you enjoy, it’s not a competition it’s about being happy and enjoying your trip 👍
#POWERCOUPLE
Yaaas! ❤️
WTF soup! you dont get that in Newton Abbot!
Because nobody wants it 🤣
@@ontheroadadventure 😁
First 😂 r u not injoying the camping 😮
It can’t be great every night I guess…
@@ontheroadadventureThat’s life but you’re both getting better at camping 🏕️ just keep at it! You will soon conquer it and save a shit load of money!
Im not sure we will save money, we keep wanting to buy more kit now!
@@ontheroadadventure lol 😂 that’s standard when you start camping! But once your happy with kit it does last and you will save the more you go

European McDonalds in some countries are better than others, but... all are still better than in the US, cas in some European countries they won't eat such a crap.
