    You are capturing the real Sicily - not the IG version, but the simplistic beauty of our historically intriguing and ever alluring island. Sharing immediately ‼️

    Amazing journey and so beautiful everywhere in Sicily, I didn't realize it was so big.
    I wonder as I have an interest in history if the people there claim any Phoenician ancestry?

    this is so cool! I love the laid back way you've gone about it. The way the APE plate locks up is really cool... there's no lock on it? It says a lot about the conditions if just that lid is enough. You went to fantastic places. It's a real treat to watch your film.Keep the good work up.

    • @LukeRenard
      @LukeRenard  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks so much! Yeah I had a little lock that I could put on the back when it was night time but that was all I needed when I would leave it parked over night :) thanks for watching!

    Hi Luke.Greeting from Meerbush Germany. Great video.Looking forward to seeing more. I have a ape tm. A few years ago I did a road trip from Meerbush Germany too Benidorm in Spain.All together it was 4207km. Like you said that the ape is slow and you take your time,it's so true. You see a lot more of the place you go too. On my trip I met some great people and we had a lot of fun. After seeing your video I'm thinking about a new trip. I have seen in June there is a ape meeting in Denmark. I'm thinking about going. Thank you for your video and getting me thinking about a new trip. All the best Andy from Meerbush Germany

    • @LukeRenard
      @LukeRenard  ปีที่แล้ว

      No way that’s amazing! And I completely agree, you see so much of the trip similar to a Vespa or scooter but you can bring more stuff and get a little protection from the weather. I’ll have to look into the Ape meet up that sounds great!
