    People, please don’t comment about bike maintanance and tools anymore like on the Assietta episode! 😂
    Of course I knew how my rear brakes are (we didn’t have the time to really prepare the bikes because we took off spontaneously and I have been quite sick before - and we said whatever we need we will just buy on the way instead of wasting a few days on preparation). Riding in Europe is not like a trip around the world - you can find the usual wear spare parts within a day of reach in pretty much every place and I have a tow service insurance EVERYWHERE. So I really don’t feel like I need to prepare much. Saying that I thought I would make it home with my rear brakes and therefore didn’t look for new ones on the way. Obviously they didn’t last (but nearly, it would have been only a days ride home, so my judgement was not too bad in the end, even though it was a misjudgment that could have been avoided - but that’s how it is will all misjudgments, you think it works out until it doesn’t…)- but isn’t that part of the adventure?
    So why am I making a point out of this? Especially for beginners it can threatening to get the feeling to have to prepared for everything all the time - and that if you come over an issue or make a misjudgment once so many other riders will judge your decisions, try to lecture you and force their way of doing things upon you.
    In my opinion it is 100 percent better to start not good prepared and figure things out on the way than not starting at all or losing most time for preparations - that’s just my opinion but I would have never gone on my worldtrip if I had to have everything figured out before. you guys don’t need to teach me how I should prepare my adventures or decide when it is necessary for me to carry tools. We are all adults and responsible riders (hopefully) - so I am as well able to take these decisions. Same for my travel partner with his run down tire - I don’t know if you realized but it was and still is pretty difficult to get new tires these days due to rubber shortage - we ordered the new tires we wanted two months before we took off and they arrived a month after we came back. 😉 so would we do anything different next time for this same trip in Europe? Not at all. That’s maybe as well what home is, a place where you don’t feel like you need to start to a trip equipped to your teeth. You can just walk out the door, go explore, and sometimes as well rely on your friends! ❤️

      OK, but brakes? You must have known that they are near the end. It is not that you don't have money to change them even if they are not near the end or that it takes long time especially on the trip in the alps where they are heavily used. Obviously even Germans are not that organised any more 😁

      @Hilldweller my bike had no faults when I took off - so nothing about this was legally or morally wrong. I never said that you should ride with a faulty bike, I simply didn’t bring 1000 spare parts for all the things that might happen afterwards - which is legally and morally completely right in a place like Central Europe, my personal opinion and nothing we need to discuss about. As soon as I realized that the rear brakes will not make it any longer I would not have gone for a longer rider anymore - that’s why I said in the beginning of the video that I don’t know if the trip is going to end here (and I as well didn’t drive it on those roads with zero mistakes at all, I checked them before Assietta when there was still enough left that let me think I would make it home completely, then i checked them when we repaired the panniers, saw that nothing was left and on the way home from downtown to the hotel they then were really gone - that’s why we didn’t ride any other roads that day, even though we had planned to go to another mountain pass. I was monitoring my brakes closely as I knew that there is not much left, but simply made a misjudgment about how long they still would last).
      Saying that I as well think that with care and experience you can ride a bike pretty well even if the rear brakes are gone because the front brakes do a massive amount of work. I had once a front brake issue in Patagonia where my front brakes fell off due to a mechanic who worked on my front wheel before - I couldn’t fix the issue myself and had to ride 400 kilometers to the next workshop without front brakes. That is something that I would try to avoid 100 percent and that I think really is legally and morally wrong - but I did it back then because there was simply no other option in the middle of nowhere with nobody around. 🤷🏻‍♀️ the world is not black and white and it will never be a place where you can avoid all mistakes hundert percent of the time. So you have to learn how to deal with that mistakes or misjudgments if they happen the best way - and in my opinion preparing for everything is simply not possible, because something can always go wrong.

      as I wrote I thought I would make it home with them, so that was a misjudgment of about 500 kilometers, but things like that happen. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      @@Got2Go yes of course nobody is perfect and we all learn all the time and live or die. I personally go too far about safety, much more then about quality of the restaurants on the way, places to eat are many the head is only one. I believe many people as well and that is why they are surprised it has happened to you so close to starting point and service and in the mountains where brakes are most important. If it is somwhere remote nobody would be surprised that parts need replacing. Also it is a bit silly to criticize vievers who criticize you as many didn't go around the world and had to improvise and they are from places far away. They might not know that Munich is almost next door to alps and that you can reach it fast on the motorway if you need to return quickly. Nevertheless safety is most important.

    I once lost the rear brakes on my way out of town for a weekend trip. I decided to continue on without them. The front brakes are much more important than the rear, as you well know. Try riding a few hours without touching the rear and you will learn you don't need them. However, try using only the rear without the front brakes, and you will quickly find out this is almost impossible. I check bearings and brakes at every tire change. Enjoyed the video.

    • @Got2Go
      @Got2Go  2 года назад +1

      I agree that front brake is more important, but when riding off-road I think the rear is not an unimportant part either - at least I would not like to ride off-road without a rear brake.

    Good to see your friends. Do they have a RUclips page, Instagram? Seem interesting. Glad they had your brake pads. Spectacular scenery from high above the mountains. Just wonderful. Thanks for the donation to help the Ukrainians. Safe travels in your present endeavors. Most times just throw or already have the necessaries in a bag and hit the road jack. Learned as you many years back to be ready. When I get a case of Rabbits Feet it's time to make a move. Fool around and miss the ride completely. You wouldn't have had the op to see your friends. I've waited for four months for front ATV tires, had three sets of truck tires with knots on them, replacement crony workers I imagine. So hey, let's ride the USA again.

For me it’s important to be able to do both. But everything is different - riding completely alone, to riding with a person you are very used to, and then in a „bigger“ group with more than two people.

      Believe it or not, but I usually never worry about toilet paper as long as I have water with me. And that not only in Europe but everywhere in the world. It’s very empowering to not be dependent from toilet paper 😂😂😂

    Magnificent views from the top! Such a neat area to explore by motorbike.
    That tunnel was really great too, I'm sure everyone is glad it was reopened.
    Brakes gone... Hmmmm, someone needs to be better at regular maintenance to catch things like that, before it happens.
    And every motorbike should have Blue Loctite (243) in the toolkit to put on bolts and screws, of course that means you need to actually keep the tool kit on the bike....
    Not a problem for you, since you are so nice everyone is eager to help you.
    We all love you, carry on!

    Great video Lea! I agree with your remark when getting back on the pavement. The dirt roads are fun and a great adventure but when you have been riding all day pavement is a welcome sight. It was so nice that your friends guided you on this trip and helped fix your brakes. Those are the kind of friends to have. I am looking forward to the finale.

Biker halten eben zusammen! Hast du die Bremse zu Hause noch mal überprüft? So wie Klötze im Video aussahen, könnte die Bremsscheibe auch Schaden genommen haben. C u next time. LG Bianca

      Ja, das wurde alles überprüft, ich bin ja in die Schweiz gezogen und die sind bei der Zulassung von ausländischen Fahrzeugen sehr genau. Aber alles einwandfrei, wie gesagt hatte ich die Abnutzung im Auge und dann sofort gar nicht mehr gebremst, die Scheibe hat nichts abbekommen.

    2014 we drove up the way you went down. In the middle of the tunnle were the water was deep it also was an 25cm deep ditch under the water, was an interesting experience try not to fall down. As an extra surprise It was spots with ice under water too even thou we were there in middle of June.
    We couldn't reach the top, on exactly 2600 meters it was snow over the road.

      Actually there was a white red plastic strap and a roadblock outside the tunnle but they was lifted a little bit on the side so we just passed them anyway :)

    Another wonderful dirt road I suggest you to do(is just in the next valley near the Jafferau)is the "colle del sommelier" it takes you up to nearly 3000 meters and it is the highest mountain pass and dirt road in Europe, even higher than Stelvio and Iseran...it looks like you are in Nepal...above 2700 meters the grassy slopes give way to the pure rock and snow(when there is a snowy winter...sadly in the last years we had abnormally warm winters and droughts)

    • @Got2Go
