Wild Animals Robbed Me While I Was Motorcycle Camping 😭

- Join me on an unforgettable journey as I traverse the rugged landscapes of Norway on my trusty motorcycle. In this video, I dive deep into Norway's breathtaking forests for a wild camping experience.
As night falls, I set up camp amidst the towering trees and settle for a peaceful night under the stars. But, just as I'm about to drift off, I hear rustling in the bushes. What was supposed to be a quiet night in the wilderness takes an unexpected turn when some of Norway's cheeky nocturnal residents decide to join me for dinner!

sending you subscriber mojo Saffy.. 🤓💯❤🩹
I'm only subscribed to one other TH-cam channel, but i'll make yours the second, because:
(i) your 'journeys' are both adventurous/challenging & interesting.
(ii) your commentary is sometimes poetic & sometimes brutally honest. But always engaging.
(iii) your musical accompaniment is not the usual boring dross that I have a profound & immediate dislike of.
BTW: on the name of the bike - were i to get another bike & it was the colour of yours, i'd have to call it 'Olive':)
Saffron is not just an adorable and wacky woman she is a fine poet🇮🇪🏍️.
Thank you so much 😊
Your story telling voice overs are amazingly poetic; you could compile them into a sprocket anthology.. Fabuolous vid for a Sunday evening as usual!.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Been a long time since I rode up into the Arctic Circle, 21 years ago in fact.
Stunning scenery everywhere.
You should call your bike Riff Raff
Riff Raff 😂😂😂
I ride with a Camelbak, staying hydrated is so important, I was moderate to severely dehydrated in Portugal when I crashed my bike
If you carry an axe you could have kept the pelts of all the animals that tried to steal your biscuits. Coming home draped in the firs of your adversaries, a triumphant shield-maiden returning from the wild northlands biscuits in hand.
Also might I suggest Rhonda the Honda 😅
Pretty sure the deer would wear me as a coat 😂
It was the Chupacabra 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Absolutely stunning roads and surrounding!
It's very beautiful 😍
When that Deer realises those biscuits were out of date MSR rations…he will get his come uppance. Delhi belly for a week😂
😂😂😂😂 Karna is a deer eating military biscuits
Whilst winter camping in Norway we were often visited by wolverines, they left footprints in the fresh snow every night...
:0
Renegade is an old 70's TV series where the central character travelled everywhere on his Harley 😁
Enchanting story. Very first view on the channel! Subbed!
Awesome, thank you! Welcome aboard 🥰
Norway..come for the natural beauty and epic motorcycle riding. but you will Stay because of the Blair witch style camping and late night campsite visits from unseen only heard Ravenous beasts... 😳 Well done!
To be fair, it is the most wonderful place to wild camp! It's so hard to get off grid in the UK
I love that bike Saffy especially in green ❤💙💯🙏
Thank you 😊
For camping pegs that work anywhere, look at 150mm nails, 2p washers, and a claw hammer from B&Q. Cheaper, last basically forever, and don't bend or beak like tent pegs do.
How does the saying go? " Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink" , oh Saffy !!
ahahahahah exactly!
When you were resting next to a lake in Ulvik, that was actually the ocean 😅 you were just at the end of a very long fjord 😊
Oh no way! I thought it was a lake!
@@SaffySprocket its an easy mistake to make 😅 also must rivers in Norway are safe to drink from, so long as its running water 😊
@@SaffySprocket Not the first fjord you called a lake during this trip, probably won't be the last. :P
Baby Norwegian Trolls 😊👍👍
Totally the trolls 😂
renegade? nah, its the Sprocket Rocket. You were looking pretty knackered at the lake, glad you made it safely.
I already have a rocket 🚀 he's safely tooled up for winter
Store food & cook food 100meters from your camp. You are never alone. I have survived 72yrs…
Lesson learn the hard way 😂
Once, somewhere i Germany, I was sleeping inte woods and was awaken by a badger trying to bite its way through the footend of my sleeping bag! A bit of a surprise.
:o I wonder if it was a badger near me!
@@SaffySprocket quite possible. Nice little critters!
Should've stayed at the murder hut 😂No wonder the wee beasty was drinking the cooking water, those biscuits are as dry as the Atacama
Spooky. Well you did want to camp in a spooky forest😅. It was entertaining. We have bandicoots that rustle around the tents because we have disturbed the ground. Great for worms and beetles. If you spot them with a torch they stand still. We you turn the torch off they carry on grubbing up the ground.
Today I learnt that a Bandicoot is a real thing 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭 I just thought it was a video game character ahahha I'm an idiot
Can't wait to see the next one :) Looking forward to see which route you took, either way, you passed by where I live. There are some nice roads up here, and I can't wait for spring again, so I can take out my bike.
I'm editing them as fast as I can :D
@@SaffySprocket Take your time 😁 it's a joy to watch.
I left some buscuits once in my porch part of the tent whilst on the Isle of Jersey. Some animal helped themselves to them whilst I was asleep, and to thank me for that they had a "SHIT" on the way out. Thank god it wasn't a DOG. 😭😭😭🤮🤮🤮
NooOooOooOoo that's awful!!!!7
Wild camping is the best! Pure serenity! The visitor was most probably a fox or maybe a badger. Especially young foxes (this years litter) are very curious and not shy at this time of the year. I have even hand fed them a couple of times. Badgers are also not very shy if they can't hear or smell you. I have spent the night in the garden here at home where a whole family of badgers with two adults and three cubs have been around me digging for food and playing and even running under the field bed I was lying in. There are no dangerous wild animals in Norway, unless you provoke them to attack in some way (which is very uncommon). I would not hesitate to wild-camp anywhere in Norway, and also have done it for many years, even in bear and wolf land (that is in the eastern Norway where I live). However, I think you were quite brave given that you did not know anything about what was out there and in a "creepy mood", and still confronted that beast or omen out there in the darkness! 😱😎
I'm thinking it was a fox now a few people mentioned it! I didn't consider a fox at the time but they are quite dog-like
You could buy one of the houses and be a barister in Norway.
The creepy abandoned house? :o
hah I can here the spookies now.. Ohh fk ITS Saffy Sprocket , where's my sheet and rattly chain? I AM OUT OF HERRREE 💯🤣🤣❤🩹@@SaffySprocket
I've no idea how u cud camp in a forest by urself, I'm a grown ass man and I wudnt do it. But more power and respect to u for doing it 👍
Wild camping is far more safer than camping near towns and in campsites. Campsites just give you the illusion of safety.
Rogue, Restless, Rhapsody or even Ragnarök.
There are Wild Boar in Norway.
It was trolls that helped themselves to your biscuits. Trolls are only active at night since they turn into stone if they are hit by sunrays.
😂 biscuit loving trolls
Norway is a beatiful country . I myself live in Fredrikstad. Cool video . I drive motorcycle too but i sold what i had some years ago. I wanna get another bike but hasnt decided what bike yet. Awesome videos you are making. If you ever come by Fredrikstad.... 👍
When you said "I forgot to buy water" I shouted, it's behind you.................... Yes nearly panto session
😂😂😂😂😂😂
According to common law, robbery is defined as taking the property of another, with the intent to permanently deprive the person of that property, by means of force or fear; that is, it is a larceny or theft accomplished by an assault
Those animals 100% intended to deprive me of my biscuits
Being a Japanese bike and you're stuck with "Renegade" the only fitting name has to be "Ronin" (Renegade Samurai).
A suggestion, get yourself a small powerful touch and a wisthle, for those situations, keep the black on black and stay safe.
What's that?
@@SaffySprocket please excuse my dyslexia, if perditve spelling don't give me the correct word i go with how my brain tells me, i meant a thing you blow, and it makes a sound, sorry.
It's a whistle.
@@archybrooks6938 ahahah don't worry! I'm dyslexic too, I didn't know if I was reading it incorrectly ahahaha
It's amazing how the mind plays tricks. You left the biscuits out as an offering to the gods for safe passage 😅. I'm not sure I'd go for with renegade, maybe Raphael, Raven, or Ryder looking at the etymology. Safe travels.
It was the trolls, another great episode saffy , Sunday evening story time and raising money to awesome
Pesky trolls ahahah
Back in the 80s my tent got raided while camping in the New Forest. The wild ponies eat my sandwiches.
WILD PONIES???!!!! NO WAY! That's amazing!
You need to get a IR torch / add on for your night time recordings
Yes! That's a good idea!
It was meeeeee .... Hi Saffron ❤❤❤
😂😂😂
well.. i woke up once in norway in the middel of the night. Was the first time i thought i should hide my food high up in a tree after 1 month of travle. was also the night i saw a bear 20 meters away from my tent, at the food bag hanging on a wire in the tree. scared the shits out of me. looked the bear in the eye and the bear looked me in to the eye. seemed like a eternality. how ever it was just a second. than it scattered as fast as it could.
so i can imagine what experience you had.
A bear in Norway 😨😨😨😨 noooOoOooo I thought they were scarce
Saffy lass well done ❤
Thank you :D
Great video, those pesky wild animals definitely don't know who owns those biscuits 😂
They'll regret it when they need the loo later on. 😂😂😂😂 Military biscuits are dryer than a summer month in India
I camped a couple of years ago in my motorhome in the mountains at Sierra Nevada , was amazing but during the night all you could hear was all the wild dogs howling like wolves , was so loud you had to sleep with the telly on to drown out the noise , you also had the wild cats too appear and had this absolutely beautiful pure white cat kept sleeping under my van while I was staying there
That's terrifying 😨 I want to visit now 🤣
@@SaffySprocket when I rode up Sierra Nevada I got to 11,500 ft ish , not bad considering I was riding a Kawasaki ksr110 , on the way down I used the disused road which was amazing and had to ride about 1/2 mile over the snow cap to rejoin the road , if only I had a helmet camera then
Well done you great video ride safe love your hair and courage
Thank you! Will do!
Saffy, your videos just get better and better, but you do have a wild imagination 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 I heard this a lot growing up
Looks beautiful Saffy, call the bike Lagatha after the Viking shield maiden, ride safe young lady.
Thanks 🥰
If there is seaweed in a lake, it is a fjord!
,bravaa compliment
Thank you 😊
Saffy so beautiful wish i was riding with you stay safe x
"Wild animals robbed me..."
I thought for a moment you had been to Birmingham....
😬
😊 I used to work out there and got to know a few norweigan,s who informed me of the bears as it's a commen thing the further inland and and a bit further north, living the content stay safe
I think it was smaller than a bear! It ran away very quickly!
"Spooky abandoned forest".....lol, well apart from all the trees, plants, animals , birds, fungi & microbes that are thriving there, did the midges bother you like scotland Saffy?
Not many midges about to be honest! I did have a little midgie light as well though
@@SaffySprocket Thank god for small mercies eh? Have heard from a few freinds they can be a nightmare in the scandiavian countries at the wrong time of year.
Badgers robbed me while I was camping at Aberystwyth 😂😂
nOOooOoo They did not ahahahah - I actually heard they're really vicious if you come across one
@@SaffySprocket yup stole my breakfast 😂 at morfa bychan loads of them just walking around like they owned the place. The next night they raided the tent behind me 😂
I always take a Sawyer Squeeze water filter AND a Steripen Ultra violet light water treatment as ultra violet light is what they use in industry to cleanse muscles before shipping out for sale to the shops and restaurants.
To keep the bears away yeh 🤣?
I think your bike looks like a razor for a name x
Oooooh actually I like that!
Omg Saffy,please stick to campsites for the rest of the adventure…I don’t like horror films and we want you back home safely..take care 😂😂😂❤
😂 I'm home, safety is debatable 😂😂😂
Well done Saffy,looking forward to your next adventure..😊
You make it look so hard. Speed is the only way. . Sandy tracks like that aren't too bad , they have a bottom, beach riding is worse .
It was hard though 😂😂😂
Nice video 🎉
Thank you so much!
If you want a name beginning with R, how about Ranulph, as in Sir Ranulph Fiennes, who is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's greatest living explorer?
Ahahah I love it
Omg Saffy you’re one brave tough cookie 😂
😂😂😂 Brave....or mad...who's to say!
I’d say brave !
Was the lake a freshwater or sea water lake? If fresh I guess the lake water would have been pretty good quality. Especially if boiled. Alternatively look for a mountain stream. Better than any tap water!
If you call your bike Renegade, you could shorten it to Renée as a nick name. That sounds a bit more friendly.
I think I wood be craping myself ❤
I had a cold sweat on I won't lie 😂 felt my heart in my throat
I think I be running about 70 miles
omg i cant believe you had more then one Animal maybe it came to visit the beaver you had in the tent 🤣🤣😎
I think the one that woke me up was a fox now people mentioned it !
lucky you done your zipper up 😎@@SaffySprocket
Enjoyed your latest post. 👍🖖
Thank you! Cheers!
Look into the lens... the shiny, round glassy thing.
Not the image of yourself looking off to the left of screen... somewhere!
Maybe I enjoy being an awkward penguin lmao
Wow, your camera work gets better and better keep up the fantastic images. I just love your enthusiasm !
Thank you so much 😀
There was water . It was in the lake ! 😂
Hi saffy, lovely scenery reminds me of Scotland, put a coat of paint on the barn nearly ready to move in, if i didn't know you were joking i would be concerned about you not knowing if you would like a shower or to be murdered it did make me laugh. I know what you should call your bike starting with the letter R finish with a Y just 3 letters guess what the middle letter should be? Ha Ha ! As always best wishes Roy.
Uf you want an R it has to be rambunctious ,just like you.😂❤
Then shorten it to rambo.
Saffy , I think you definitely overdid the dramatic prose or poetry on this video , even if you did actually end up getting robbed !.
😂 biscuit thieves
Hello there 😊! Very nice video, lovely camping and nice camera work. Keep on ! I also make camping videos, before in Russia, ow in Vietnam. Take care! Good luck with your channel!
Thank you! Will do!
Big think....to react like this for some....biscuits...who cares...? This is a part of the adventure....You are good in your health,that is which does matter...
Pesky foxes stealing my biscuits 🤣🤣🤣
❤❤🥰🥰🥰
🥰🥰🥰
Uauu 😰🙏
It's like the Blair Witch Project
😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭
The bike is more of a Racal than a Renegade 🤔 🤷🏻♂️
I like Rascal 😂
Watch out for those trolls!
I will 😂
why is it you always forget to have enough water😂
✨I'm absent minded ✨
What about" Ratchet for a suggestion
Rachet is good! I like that!
Might want to speak to locals before camping, as I understand it Norway still have wild bears
I did! They assured me it was rare to come across them 😂
Not sure if you've officially named the cb500x yet, but how about Roxy (begins with an R and has an X in it lol)?? Other than that, your videos are so uplifting and inspiring. Your giggles even when facing difficult and uncomfortable situations are infectious. Keep doing what you're doing....totally inspiring stuff :-)
Rebel!!!!
With your spirit of adventure and for some reason you seem to pick the cold season maybe you could call your bike ragnar then to go with it, your fighting spirit to keep going forward and wild camping you could call yourself lagertha with all that long blonde hair ❤❤😊
Thank you so muh :D
Ronnie
XD
Sadly yet again not much riding shown. To much showing eating n putting tent up. Vids used to be so much funnier and better
Are you sure you're not thinking of someone else? I've only had riding montages in my videos
,bravaa compliment
