#USERNAMEKATE #WINTER #GERMANY
Enjoyed that Kate! Snow and ice at the beginning looked awful!
You have far bigger balls than me riding in all that slush and snow! Well done, UNK, looking forward to the next episode. Total respect of you and your riding.
You both are brave or crazy. I can't decide which. Enjoyed the video. Thanks!
I think the word your looking for is stupid 😂😂
@go4aride you’ll be amazed how many times those two words are said together 😊
Looking for trouble
You are both VERY BRAVE,...riding in that ...admire your spirit be careful ☺️❤️👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
😮💩 what a way to start. Enjoying from my warm chair 🤓😎🏍️💨💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦
Snow, ice and diesel.........nice mix for riding pleasure!🤣
You got balls for sure. I'm Canadian and I wouldn't go out in that ;-)
Wow Kate, I guess I will have to stop complaining when it reaches 32 Degrees Fahrenheit in Texas. We don’t really have anything for combating the Ice on the Roads here because it’s so rare. I would have been scared to death on those Roads. We had Snow actually stick a couple of Years ago down around Houston, and there were almost 2500 Accidents per Hour. No one knows how to drive in it. It’s so Rare. Loved the Video. You guys are Crazy.👍❤️
the important thing is to keep up the enthusiasm, I always pray that I will be healthy, always happy, stay focused with positive thinking that is done every day, is running now
Squeaky bum time on that snow 🫨, balls of steel.
Bonkers! Absolutely bonkers! Lovely!
Great video guys. Loved to of joined you. I ride through winter, can't be without heated gear. I ride k1600 so heated grips and seat standard. Safe journey guys.👍😁
Watching this has made me realise that my trip to the local BMW dealership for annual service tomorrow will be a complete breeze. 😀
uauuuu 🤯 Kate very cold I hope you enjoy your work in France or Germany where you go regards
Crazy... and you switched to the RIGHT side of the road after leaving the train..
Milton Keynes is ropey at the best of times let alone in that weather! 😂
You crazy pair 😉.... Never seen bike in the snow with so many miles to do.....well done despite the weather 🌡️🥶🥶🥶....Mike keeping his options open......what a charmer 🤣🤣😂
well 😂
My gosh you are adventurous great story 😊
Haha Thank-you!
Love a tour! Both very brave riding in the snow & ice...not the best biking conditions. Looking forward to the next episode... Thank you! 😉
Enjoyed that Kate. Mike is a brave lad “keeping his options open!”😄😄
Look forward to the next episode 🙂👍
Respect riding in them temperatures without heated grips I would of definitely wired the heated gear before I set off 😂
We weren't sure if we were allowed to meddle 😅 and forgiveness is easier than permission sometimes 🤭
Holy mackerel Kate, I couldn't believe my eyes when you headed off out into those conditions. Being a motorcycle journalist in the UK is one tough gig. Have you and Mike ever thought of moving to Queensland?😊🇦🇺
I can't believe my eyes. I thought I was the only nutbar who rides in snow and ice. I live in Denver and I get the best looks from people in the winter. Especially when I wear my cowboy boots and cutoffs.
Crazy as a box of frogs!! although you rode right through my old stomping ground (MK) which was nice to see.
This here is the living proof of that bikes can be riden throughout the entire year if you just go out and ride responsibly
wait till you get to part 4 😂😂😂
Woohoo, Adventures with Mike!!
😍😍😍😍😍
2 brave souls
My God! What a brave ones! This tarmac have had black ice no way 👏👏
A lot of people wouldn't ride in the rain, but you go on tour in the snow 🤣
A shame the bikes didn't have heated grips or seats.
I felt cold just watching this...I would likely struggle to stay focused if not warm enough & would be apprehensive on summer tyres.
Thanks for sharing
Ride Safe 👍🏍
I don't do wet. very brave of both of you to do this.
Bloody excellent . That first leg i would have had to stop every 20 mins to wee in the cold :)). Mikes patter is good
Kate the sausage and mash gag how true .
You guys are brave . Seeing the snow and ice it took me back to the 80's,, as when I lived in the UK, I used to ride my Guzzi 850T3 from my village ,to work etc through winter .
Big respect to you both!Im a biker of 42yrs&woukd never think of doing this!Dragon Rally for you both next methinks??
Yes, you both must be mad, riding in the cold, snow in January. However, it made enjoyable watching..😊👍🏍
Crazy to drive in that kind of weather, but fun! Have a nice stay in the EU. Thanks for sharing, and stay safe both of you. So long.
You both are legends!!! We dare not ride when there's snow anywhere on our local roads as the they're also covered with salt. Great vid Thanks for sharing!!
These bikes are a centre stand away from me buying one.
It's something I use constantly and it's a weird omission that you can't even fit an aftermarket one to these.
It's nice to see you and Mike out riding in the winter wonderland, enjoy and keep safe. 😜👍❄️🏍️
what a cracking Vid!! Knowing Mike like i do i know how he loves to ramble on about shit no one cares about and your commentary on it had me in fits! hope there is a Part 2 to this vid the Christmas market should be amazing to see!!! cant wait to watch it!!!
Well I know it's early but that is best 30mins video I have seen this year, and will take some beating!
Have always followed your videos and love your positive attitude and enthusiasm for motorcycles. You are a shining star and you can attract new riders which our hobby definitely needs. Particularly love how you involve dad too !
Totally agree about barmouth bridge have been doing it for years including when there was a tariff, you definitely feel like your breaking the law !
Cannot wait for next video in this series.
Thanks for your hard work and both of you ride safe and enjoy this crazy trip.
You guys are awesome, so much respect for you embarking on this trip in those horrendous cold conditions, I will be really interested to see how the GT build quality holds up with all that salt etc, I have recently bought one of these and it still urks me that no heated grips as standard (although I know stuff needs to be built to a price), I ordered grips as an option and need to get them fitted by the dealer at the 1st service, all in all loved the vid, very informative and entertaining, looking forward to the next part 2
Great video,respect to you both in that snow.
Can’t believe you did the Hoyeeeeer gag,that’s who I drive for does my head in when people do that.🤪😂
Kate is this bit in uk looks mad in snow and mike knows how to handle that bike as i said ride safe 🥰x
Super video.....and very entertaining. Despite my 48 years of motorcycling, I take my hat off to both of you for a competent and progressive ride in those conditions! I winced when I seen the bikes covered in salty crud though! Hope you slapped loads of corrosion inhibitor before you left home. Looking forward to your next instalment. Thanks again.
I use my Head ski gloves when extremely cold and they work like a charm
I just stumbled upon this video and I'm not even halfway through, but gurl you have some marbles!!
Brilliant, especially telling Mike at the tunnel he is in the lane for France and needs to be in the one for Germany, I had to think myself for a second!!
it's not about being brave, it's under all the criticism how you put yourself in danger and other road users I call this immaturity. glad at the same time that you managed the trip. be careful you are young and will have many fun miles ahead of you.
That shallow breathing: decent levels of stress. Ride safely 👍🏽
WOW what a brave young lady you are, well both of you are brave riding in those conditions. I love watching your vids and listening to your commentry as it makes me laugh, especially with the "can't go that way Mike, that goes to France" 🤣🤣 brilliant.
Love to tag along and do a mini tour with you guy's one day. (Gotta do my big boys licence in mid March first though lol)
Keep up the great vids Kate and thank you for the entertainment, I love it. Take care and safe riding
You, dude and dudette, are certifiably bonkers! 🤪🧐🤭🙂!
I'm gob smacked that you even set off in those conditions! All credit to the pair of you. Kate, 'No we're not going to France we're going to Germany' so funny. 😂
You absolute legends. Looking forward to watching the rest of the episodes. Fair play for braving the cold
I hope you realise that it can be colder and heavier snow in Germany compared to the UK. Just saying as I sit here in Queensland sunshine at 36C with no snow in sight. 🤣🤣
Really good video Kate. Look forward seeing the next episode. Very inspiring.
Not going to France 🤔 We’re going to Germany OK . O’hhhh tell you what, let’s go via France. Yep that sounds like fun 🤩👍
Much respect for the all-weather riding 👍👍. I rode my old gsxr in the Canadian snow years ago. Wasn't as horrible as I expected but my boss sent me home when it got really heavy. Would love to try it again with a more appropriate bike and tires.
R E S P E C T. Glad you made it to the tunnel. Looking forward to the next episode 👍
I went out in the snow once on my CB600 Hornet, although i really enjoyed it, it was the worst mistakes ive ever made, not because i cam off, but a month later my newish motorbike was a rust heap, corrosion was everywhere, and got that bad even the header bolts had rusted solid, next time its definitely a wash straight after
Great ride Kate! But I wonder why you Britts always say you have to ride on the wrong side of the road in Europe. In fact you are riding on the right side of the road 🤫🤭
Made my arse twitch watching you ride in those conditions. And you two are well funny together 😂 well mainly you Kate 😂
Rude!! 😚
I went out recently in the frost and nearly binned it. Not a chance you’d catch me doing that in the snow 😂
State of those bikes in the train! Hope Suzuki have a good jet wash when you return them!
I don't know about UsernameKate! You should change it to, Barmy Bird from Bolton! Lol. Rideing a bike in this snow on road tyres, bugger that. You and Mike are both heroes. By the way, the Channel Tunnel only goes to France, it's a bit far to dig it to Garmin 😂.
Looking forward to your next instalment.
Enjoyed watching this
I feel your pain, I had to travel from Belgium to England and back just before Christmas, I had heated grips and put toe warmers in my boots they still went numb after a few hours
No not the wrong side of the road..the right side hehe 😀
Mike straight up talking to anyone who will lend him a ear😂 use are mental not a chance get me out when it’s cold never mind bloody snowing l. Brilliant video can I get a HHHHOOOOOYYYYERRRRRRR.
That was crazy! Haha I don't mind riding in cold, but I'm not sure I would have had the grit to take off in that snow. But, I have to say, looks like an awesome trip.
Oh, and BTW they ride on the correct side of the road in France. LOL
Your presentations, not to mention bravery of you and Mike, get ever better.
Great vid. Love the banter and respect for riding in the snow. I am also a clown at times and say some saft stuff. I passed last April and need to get more confidence that you have. X
Can’t believe you didn’t pop in for coffee at the tunnel 😂 safe travels !
Oh well got a coffee whilst waiting to board the tunnel, there ended up being a 2 hour wait!
@@UsernameKate yep the tunnel is very convenient but if there’s long delays there’s very little to do ! Well done both of you going to Germany in that cold weather though !
Haha cheers 😊
‘We could have just gone to Bents” 😂
That would have cost you more than a trip to Germany for sure.
M-A-D mad only winter snow riding i did on my DT175 Yamaha which was fun and close to home to be doing this on Large heavyweights is bonkers but i did enjoy it ❄️❄️
Absolutely brilliant
I test ridden one of these bike there really cool 😊 your very brave riding in that weather loving your content and stay safe 🥰👍
Real bikers... Salute 👍👍👍
Loved your enthusiasm, probably your best vid so far. Adventure, some difficult conditions and lots of laughing.
Good first episode, for the first part i found myself keep saying “where are they going” as i know the area very well, have you heard the expression…. going around the houses
I can’t believe the press bikes didn’t have heated grips, you only miss them when you don’t have them, you just have to be so smooth when it’s really cold.
Yeah we drive also in ice and snow. Bud we have done York - B-ham and Manchester . Only this time not tent we book some in to sleep. This oke however never take so heavy CC on this lol. i stay by the 125CC - 300CC :P
But we are going to Germany Mike….That looked seriously cold. Looking forward to the next vlog. Also I watched the ads all the way through, even though they were in German
I’ve ridden for best part of forty years in all weathers, but draw the line at riding in snow.. as it’s batshit crazy.. Maximum respect to you! 👍🏻👍🏻
I can imagine you looking for the tunnel to Germany lol
Oh wow Kate, when we get this weather in Canada we put the bikes away and take out the sleds (snowmobiles). Glad you and Mike made it safe
You are MAD to ride in the SNOW! But you pulled it off and I am super impressed. Enjoy the ride!
The right side of the road:))
Fair play riding in the snow flower.
I love your channel and I can't believe you actually reply to your viewers 😊 Awesome job
I try my best!! :) and thanks!
OMG, you guys have some bottle!! Very well done to you both, Mike, keeping his options open, legend lol. Brilliant video, keep up the good work 👍
"I had a big wobble then"...I often think that about Mrs Boulder with her new 'Covid shape'......
absolutely awesome!
Super Tour 👍🏻
Absolutely bonkers setting off in that weather without heated grips or heated gear wired in 🤣❄️. But you did it. It's definitely a bloke thing Mike chatting to all, but your correct Kate they ain't really interested 🤣. Bikes look great. Look forward to next episode. Take care, stay safe 🏍❄️👍🏍
Nice!
What an adventure.
😁 thansk George!
Nah, b*locks to that… you’re bloody mad! Lol. Fantastic stuff. 🤪
Agreed
Love seeing you and Mike riding together, hoyyyeerrr! 😂😂
glad you enjoyed the vlog!! :)
Great video Kate. Fair play to you both at the start in difficult conditions. Love the term “ tool passerer “!! Looking forward to the next one. Thank you👍
Wow! Total respect for riding in those conditions 👏🏼👏🏼 I’d need an adult nappy 🤣🤣
I don't know if you two need commending or committed for that!! But bloody well done, fantastic 😊 you're certainly not a wimpy lady.
