When did you start kayaking? - When I was 8 years old.
What size penny board do you ride? - I have both the Penny & the Nickel.
What do your tattoos mean? My star was just because I thought it looked good. My skull was my reward for winning the marathon world championships in 2010, my triangle on my hand reminds me to keep moving forward and make progress, and my turtle/Pura Vida tattoo on my leg is a reminder of my amazing time in Costa Rica. New tattoos - mountains on my arm & VV on my wrist because I didn't know what I wanted until 5 mins before I got them!

Do you ship clothing world wide? - We ship to most countries.
What editing program do you use? - Premier Pro CC on Mac
Did you go to university? - No
What steady cam do you use? - GlideCam 4000
Why aren't you training for kayaking anymore? - I see new opportunities everyday, I'm just grabbing them as they appear and keep working hard, right now that's TH-cam & Film. I'm happy I made the change!
How long do your vlogs take to edit? - They vary massively, sometimes 1 hour sometimes 6+
Still got questions? Watch my last Q&A video! - • SNAPCHAT Q&A WITH SP!

P.s. I love my subscribers :) xx
That was unreal man! Side note, you seem like such a friendly guy, taking your time to talk to everyone. Really admire that about you.
Ben, take note of this edit. This video is really at the top of your game. Amazing locations, beautiful time lapse, road culture, music; it all falls into place beautifully. This has to be one of my favorites! Pure immersion in the South African landscape.This is what TH-cam is all about. BMW and the SA tourism board should be rewarding you handsomely for the positive vibes you're spreading. Shaka bra!
I loved the time-lapses in this one. They were well-placed to help tell the story of your day. Sometimes I think people throw them in to fill space or to get an impressive bit of filming in (just for the sake of it), but they were really well balanced by the other events. I liked that they were used to highlight the beautiful scenery, but also to show the passage of time. Love the admission that while you were capturing the sunset you were doing work. It brought it all down to earth.
That bike seems to fit you Ben!
Do more whelliesssss :) i dont know u was watching ben :)
Yes c2w in the house!
+chaseontwowheels Oh look hey
Hey Ben! This is by far the best vlog I know. I love the positive vibes!
Keep on the vlogging bro. You rock
There is something so soothing about watching Ben ride on that beautiful rode, with the nice music.
The way Casey and Ben support each other is just amazing
this is the 443 vlog i have watched. i have watched your vlogs religiously, every day since the canada downhill mountain biking havens missed one since. keep up the good work!! i love your blogs and i love the fact that you live so near to me London one day i will run into you in town lol i can't wait for the day!! you are such an inspiration!! lots of love, josh
That's a badass BMW R9T. It's not very fast though, but definitely stylish and trendy. Solid boxer engine and a little top heavy. If you're into naked bikes and cafe racer style, this is solid! Ducati Life!
Hope can vloggers compete with Bens vlogs! Such a good watch! I'm sure a lot would agree with me on this one!
Totally love your motorcycle videos - they kind of have this perfect balance of on and off the bike footage - like "life of a motorcyclist" :)
chapmans peak drive never gets old .I remember driving down there with my parents when I was a kid.Its been awhile I don't think we paid a toll gate fee.Time has sure changed .Ben some drone footage would be insane down there 👌🏻
4:45 'If it's stupid but it works, it ain't stupid' hahaha
Glad to see you back on a bike Ben, I always love the motovlogs and that R nineT is badass
You're living my dream life right now! Was looking into this bike the other day! Enjoy life, Ben!
That 29 minutes timelapse at 14:30 was insane! Loved it!
OH MAN! I got a tingle when you first cranked the bike up. What a beast!
i laughed so hard when Ben tried jumping through the portal!!
Wow, I really enjoyed this vlog! Nice work Ben! Good vibes
Those Twistys on the side of the mountain are awesome, keep up the awesome vids Ben!
Wow, I literally look forward to all your dope Time-lapses in your videos!
Nicole is deffo the coolest human being
That fridge portal though, I laughed so much!
Ben, Chappies is considered one of the best scenic routes in the world, with over 100 curves and bends over the 9-10km stretch of road. Also, toll-fee is small fee to pay for those priceless views and clean air. Hope to viewers enjoyed that drive, I surely did. Cheers.
Those mountain roads looked flipping sick!
Love getting to see your snapchats and bemes. It's like a preview or sneak peek for the vlog. Thanks for all you do, Ben!
Not going to lie, the moto and the drone footage have made your vlogs epic x1000
I love riding along - - - reminds me of years ago - - - riding my motorcycle in the hills and valleys in the San Francisco Bay area.
stopped by a BMW dealer last week. so many new models and i drooled over everything
You lucky man! I rode the rninet once and I fell in love with it immediately. And I've been to Cape Town once and fell in love again. Did drive Chapmans Peak Drive but just with a car. I would love to ride that bike on that road! So great! Always ride safe, stay on two wheels and have fun! All the best from germany
This vlog was spectacular! The bike took it to a whole new level
Thanks for the video Ben. I love the Nine t.. Hope to get one soon. Such a beautiful bike.
Beautiful bike! Loved today's vlog!
Epic ride Ben. You have inspired me to go get my motorcycle endorsement before I go on the great ride in California in March.
I hope you keep doing Moto Vlogs. For some odd reason I enjoy them. Even though it's just you riding a bike you make it interesting haha.
Best vlog you ever done Mr Ben👌🏼 you and Casey are my favorite vloggers, greetings from Texas😄
OMG! I've never laughed harder than when SP "re-appeared" out of the machine!
Ben, I've seen a few videos and photos of people mounting their GoPro under their chin, gives an awesome perspective!!
AYYYEEEEE Ben is speaking Xhosa!!! Lol, I'm a South African living in Canada and I watch these Vlogs everyday so this was amazing!!!
I've never wanted a motorbike, but if i did, it'd have to be this guy. The R nineT looks beautiful!
I always press like before the video starts cause I know it's going to be good! 2015 has been an AWESOME year for you, (even tho we still have some time left until 2016) but hopefully 2016 brings another fulfilling year and great videos! Cheers!
...So umm, Ben... When are we gonna get a short film with drone shots of you driving down one of these epic roads on your bike?
Awesome video, and its the reason I have started saving to get my own NineT in few months. Cape Town is fantastic.
Did anyone else think this edit was particularly good?
Thanks Euan :) took me about 5-6 hours!
+Mr Ben Brown Hard work pays off. This vlog was particulalry nostalgic to me. Havent been back in SA since 2009.
Great edit, cool bike, cute girl... The video has it all, well done
Bens content game has levelled up so much at the minute tho
Such a rad vlog. Loved the beats + scenic shots.
Damn, such a chill vibe. I just searched 'BMW R nineT' and this was the first one I clicked. First video of yours I've seen and you earned a sub :D Well done mate, excellent video.
Love those bike shots, Cape Town looks beautiful.
Such an epic vlog ben great work also coming to cape town and riding that road is something i have got to do in my life time.
*Please give us more R nineT sound!*
I'd love to, but I'm guessed people prefer 'no wind noise' over 'lots of wind noise'!
+Mr Ben Brown Send me a PM, I can give you a hand with this, my Gopro has almost no wind noise!
+Mr Ben Brown you have Special microphone for motorbikes that respect the sound and regulates the wind
*****
There are a lot small microphones out there which can be placed for example under the seat. With an additional pluffythingy youf have on your vlogging camera it records with almost no wind noise :) Maybe the motovloggers who subscribed can help you out with this!
Personally I think when you go out for rides its better to hear some exhaust notes if there isn't much wind distortion...but don't think everyone would like it that way...your videos are awesome Ben, and you always help me cheerup.. ride safe bro and have an awesome happy life :)
That was sick man! Those time lapses at 11:50 tingled me in the all the right places
loving the bikes and sites - going to motorcycle live next month to spend as much as possible on new bike gear whoo hoo
Wicked chilled out vlog mate! the timelapses were epic
I want the RnineT so bad!!! Such a beautiful bike. That looks like it was tons of fun.
mr ben brown i want hear the sound of that beauty man, keep up the good work man
#FridgePortalGoals
Enjoyed the video Ben great to see you got the bike well played mate . The go Pro was fun felt like we went through chappies with you . very fun
The motorbike footage/edit was really enjoyable! KEEP IT UP! :D
Hey I'm new to the vlogs and thus far this is my favorite sweet time-lapses and that's one sweet bike probably a very nice ride
One of my favourites! I also love the Ducati Scrambler
Ben, those roads are sick! If you're in the states, you've gotta ride the "Tail of the Dragon" and the Cherohala skyway in TN/NC. Cheers!
the bike ride footage. so good.
more language tutorials please. what if we could greet every person on the planet in their own language? an act of peace?
Nice....Moto Ben will come to life again....
Nice vlog! This moto is awesome! Nearly reaching the 500K Ben! Keep up the great work! :)
Saw Pumba yesterday parked down at Crystal Pools, he/she was looking good ;) excited for the Vlog, as I wasn't able to go there by now!
Digging the Moto vblogs Ben! You are a massive inspiration to us!
Woaaahhh who needs a narnia cupboard when you've got that thing SP did! HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Cameron Carrasquilla hahahah ;)
6:19 My laughter over this still hasn't ceased even while typing this comment
"yoh", definitely the most South African word ever
Flare Aerial Productions that depends where you are
+Tyler Francis yip even Ben has fallen in the trap of it becoming the "go-to" word.
Haha I noticed that, he gets a little accent when he's round sp and Nicole.
This series of videos is making me miss sa big time
Nice ride Ben! I love the R nineT, but 3 things.....the instrument cluster, the mirrors and the exhaust have to change!
Pretty epic ride though!
sick blog Ben! I can't wait to get my motorcycle permit!
would you recommend this as a good first bike??
Another beautiful vlog from a Beautiful town, also sp has the best nap game
I also think you should leave some raw sounds in instead of just the music
The new vlog music is rockin'!!
This video is making me feel like, I need to go back to riding motorcycle again. (Wish I didn't had an accident before) All the best riding!
what a life... be your own boss, don't settle for a 9-5. Inspiration to continue pursuing editing & get into more film/creative space in general
sick bike bro! congrats! keep up the great work.
+Mr Ben Brown I think we definitely need a photo shoot of you with that badass bike and your dark knight helmet!
man that would have to be one of the most beautiful roads I've ever seen and practically to your self being able to ride that would be amazing being a rider I've never been so jealous hahahaha ride safe man!
Is SP working towards getting his Motorcycle Licence?
I think he'd have great Motovlog commentary :)
Bike ride looks like SO MUCH FUN!
What happens at 9:20 , is it a private road?
I saw Ben buying the tickets, but it still feels strange to pay for a street that is not a highway or something like that. And the guys checking if you have the ticket, working on the road... Mystery of South Africa :)
Yeah, I was wondering that too
+Writer's Life - Vlogs by Michele Ponte Chapman's Peak Drive is a road that always needs a lot of upkeep, it often has rock falls which damage the road etc, so the fee is, I think, to keep the road well maintained.
+Faine Loubser ohh I was thinking it might be a park. I know at least sometimes in the U.S. "Scenic" roads like this have a fee
When I was a kid, this road was free, but they had a lot of rock falls and it was closed for a long time. It's expensive to keep it safe and clear and personally, I'd pay to see that amazing view. Not sure how it can be so confusing for some, you pay a toll on a toll road for its upkeep, it's the same thing.
love the r nine t ben. can't wait to get a new bike hopefully when you are back in london we can go for ride bro!
p.s. love your vlogs!
LOOOOOOVED the soundtrack for this video!
Ben with glasses and hair comed back looks like Nicole😂
Wow!Beautiful timelapse!Haha i knew SP was a magician :)
That road looks so cool to ride, Not sure if your into sport bikes Ben but maybe a 1000RR could be a cool bike to borrow next and have the ride of your life lol
by the way Ive taken the plunge and bought a Macbook to edit my vids after watching your blogs, what a smart move :) keep up the cool blogs and vlogs and happy riding
sir you live my dreams ! ;) happy to see there is someone somewhere enjoying his life
Hey Ben I was wondering what your favorite brand of luggage is?
Awesome vlog!
damnnn ben i need to do my moto driver lincens you inspire me from day to day best man ! keep on going whit the good work ! #benisthebest
so excited for motor vlogs!!! love them :D
Nice ride! Would be nice to hear your opinion of the R9T
10:39 - Lots of vibrations through the handlebars or just gripping a little too tight?
I ride a 2 cylinder so I know that some of them have some vibration issues but BMW's are usually smooth I've heard.
This one goes straight into my "favourites" bag with the other ones
Beautiful edit and loving the new music :)
dude ben this was epic man when can i expect the store to be stocked so i can buy visual vibes gear brother cheers!!
Ben, how do you like the RnineT ? I have one and I really like it
awesome only comment so far, love you ben your the best youtuber there is, if only i knew about you longer ago, keep up the fantastic work
That bike looks like too much fun!
Awesome riding Ben! Chapmans isnt an easy road to ride fast but you did really well. I was at Donford today, thought I might bump into since you are there a lot it seems. Took the S1000R for a test ride and oggled over that R9T :D If you ever want a riding buddy drop me a line. :)
So jealous of all the beautiful views and twisty roads you have in Cape Town.
