*LEAVE A LIKE FOR CHICO! :)* Do you remember my 2021 Best-Of video? In which I said that I'd like to challenge myself more? Well. I wasn't lying. Making a video like this Gran Canaria one was new to me. And it was tough to motivate myself since I know that it won't generate a decent amount of views. But I promised myself not to create for exposure and likes anymore. I want to create content that makes me proud. So - would you be proud of yourself if you created a video like that?
Of course I would be happy and proud to make a video like that. It takes a lot of effort. I do take videos when traveling and it’s a pain to cut what’s boring and just put the interesting parts. You are doing an amazing job and that can be seen on your viewers and the comments you receive. Most viewers feel you like a friend me included and we travel and ride with you and your videos. So keep working hard and do what makes you proud. That’s also what we like to see.
It's incredible how good this video is and totally out of your comfort zone. Loved it! I hope to see more videos like this in the future (even if it's a ton of work 😅).
Your "sound" series has some of the most vicarious motorcycle videos I've ever seen. This was an interesting change to your channel. I can tell a lot of work and care went into this video. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, Schaaf big fan here. Yesterday i met theses guys from canary ride! It was a very welcoming experience! After a day in the saddle, i have 2 more unexpected things i found: not a single insect died on my helmet! And the crazy temperature diference between coast 27 and summit 38 degree Celsius! I will come back! Best ride of my life!
thanks a lot Bas!! Admittedly it is not easy to spend so much work on a product that gets 1/10 of my normal reach but in the end it makes me proud and that's what matters :)
Being canario from Gran Canaria makes me extremely proud of my island even more watching this and making me feel soooo lucky . I can enjoy It each day all year long . And another good thing is that you can travel between islands to enjoy the other island roads. You guys are more than welcome to come here to enjoy everything we can bring , thats surely is not as much as other countries or places but It surely are good to enjoy life. You can ask for any question about travel here , i will respond without problems!
This video BLEW MY MIND! That's appropriate ;) So grateful to have you on the internet. Gran Canaria is truly beautiful! I can see why you chose the place 😋 I can't give you a feedback about winter because we can ride almost all the time of the year here in India 😉 As you said, instead of trying to get likes, you've made it "natural" Be proud, sir! You should definitely consider making more videos like this. I like this style :) Never actually seen a lot of videos in this "natural" style. Chico is wonderful! Speed safe
I've got to say, this is the most informative and inspiring summary of Gran Canaria I've seen. The tip regarding the ring-road motorway is a game changer! 👍
Lieber Schaaf, das Video steht dir so gut! Ich war sehr überrascht. Es ist mal was Neues. Klar, es gab schon mal was ähnliches in die Richtung. Aber bei dieser Qualität und mit so viel Aufwand hatte ich noch mehr Spaß beim zusehen. Deine Editing Skills sind brutal! Vor allem mag ich deine unverblümte, ehrliche Art und diesen authentischen, ansteckenden Humor. Durch das ganze Influencertum der letzten Jahre ist echt schwierig geworden einen ehrlichen, lebensechten Kontent zu bekommen. Für mich persönlich ist dein Kanal eine absolute Perle auf der Plattform. Und selbstverständlich freue ich mich über jede deiner seltenen Erscheinungen auf 1000PS. Es hat unglaublich Spaß gemacht, dir dabei zuzusehen, wie du bei dem Video mit der Multi genau die selbe Strecke mit dem Motorrad abgefahren bist, wie meine Kristina und ich im Januar mit dem Auto. Wir kennen uns zwar nicht persönlich, aber ich finde deine Art unglaublich sympathisch und charismatisch. Danke dir vielmals für deine Arbeit und diesen unglaublichen Unterhaltungsfaktor. Beste Grüße aus Wächtersbach.
I watched this video 2 years ago for the first time. And now after 2 years memories suddenly came back and I want to visit this place soooo badly 🥵 It’s not easy since I was broke as a joke my whole childhood, and still, every day is a new battle. But I would like to visit and ride a bike in this place as soon as possible, specially because I was never on a plane and propper vacation. Stay hard!!!
I'm a true believer. Gran Canaria is an amazing destination for us Northern Europeans locked in the debths of winter. Riden there four times now, it is everything you describe. I think you were unlucky to see much rain. Beautifully made vid. 👏
I live in Gran Canaria and every weekend I drive my motorcycle on those roads, it is a delight. I'm excited that you came to pilot here and that you liked it. See you soon. thanks for this great video mate
Chico is awesome haha 😹 Looks like he was trying to eat you in the end. Gran Canaria looks amazing. For now I'm limited to mainland Europe but perhaps in the future? Awesome video as always 👍
Ok, as an Austrian I fully believe you this is paradise in winter. But those of us that have to pay for everything motorcycle related, 1.100 Euros cover almost the whole season of riding. Yes, the short summer season, but nevertheless. As for myself, I ride the whole year. Even in winter roads can be dry and warm clothes are not expensive and last long. So the only thing I truly hate about winter riding is salt on the roads and the cleaning after. Last weekend Kalte Kuchl - roads dry, skiing going on right beside the road, what a paradox feeling. So my winter "escape" is still - Austria. ;). For now. Very nice video, Schaaf! Stay safe!
That is impressive! Even as a student I didn't manage to ride a whole season on such a small budget! I think I needed at least a few hundreds more! Hats off!!
Huhu Schaaf, can't wait for the RAWs, but even this video was very nice. Definetly enjoyed the scenic shots, if I find some free time (and can convince some friends) I'd love to go there. Keep up the great work, really love your content.
Great video if only for the twist after curve after twist after curve clips but it was informative too👍 I went to Tenerife once and it was wonderful, sadly it was after my spine issues stopped me riding but to hire a bike would have been a dream ride.❤️ Speed and ride safe my friend.😊👍
Great video brother thanks for sharing this great spot ✌️ and what a coincidence I have a black dog named Chico with a broken tail 😂 bless their hearts animals are the best . Ride safe ✌️
Nils hat das letztes Jahr schon sehr schmackhaft beworben. Schön zu sehen, dass Du es ihm dieses Jahr gleichgetan hast. Eigentlich sollte man das wirklich über den Winter machen - tja, eigentlich. Die Preise für die Bikes sind absolut fair und dazu ohne Kilometer-Begrenzung. Das ganze bewegt sich auf alle Fälle in einem preislich realistischeren Rahmen als die letzten Motorrad-Reise-Präsentationen von Gregor, auch wenn die Destinationen nicht miteinander zu vergleichen ist, aber schön ist es auf GC allemal. #greatfootage ✌👍
Absolut. Ich hab nämlich seine GC Videos geschnitten. Und deshalb die Entscheidung gefällt, selbst auf diese Insel zu fliegen :) Und ja, preislich find ichs auch sehr fair. Der von dir angesprochene Anbieter löst bei mir nur Kopfschütteln aus :)
Been to LPA so many times for work and never realised how insane the roads are although I have sampled some lovely food and wine there. I am definitely going before the spring
@@Schaaf Sure thing. The best content always comes from people who want to share something that they think is worth sharing and not just content for views or big sponsorships. It was a great video. :)
Hallo Schaaf, sehr schönes und sehr gut gemachtes Video! Ich liebe die Insel auch, war schon 4mal da, doch leider nur mit 4 Rädern auf den Strassen - was jedoch, wenn man die Familie mal nicht im Auto hat, auch sehr viel Spaß macht. Da konnte selbst ich als nur halbwegs geübter Fahrer den Fahrwerksunterschied zwischen einem Golf und einem Gefährt von Citroen ausmachen - es waren Welten... Mit dem Motorrad die Insel (oder auch Teneriffa oder La Palma) zu erkunden, steht ganz weit oben auf meiner "Things to do before I die" - Liste - Dein Video hat den Wunsch jetzt nochmal verstärkt... Vielen Dank für die tollen Aufnahmen und Impressionen, auch wenn ich die Insel sehr gut kenne, haben mich die Bilder nochmal geflasht! PS: nichts gegen Klapphelme ;-) als Brillenträger "liebe" ich sie seit vielen Jahren...
Hola Hombre! Ich würde gerne ein Herz vergeben an der Stelle, weil es ein tolles Video ist und es mich „nach Hause“ versetzt, allerdings muss der Daumen reichen. Freut mich zu sehen wie sehr dir die Reise und das fahren gefallen hat. Schon jetzt freue ich mich auf weitere GC Videos und vielleicht sieht man sich mal dort 💪🏻 Grüße, Dennis
@@Schaaf hi again, I literally just arrived back from gran canaria today :D we had a Honda cb500x and a BMW G650GS and the time of our lives, just as you said😂 reeally beautiful country, where it's possible to get sunburned in maspalomas and driving through a snowszorm in tejeda on the same day haha
Since you asked - I don't go on a winter escape due to time and people I am close to. It is difficult to justify to leave for a week during the limited free time that I could spend with my girlfriend in between the fall and spring semester (we're both still studying, we only have around two weeks of free time). My "winter escape" therefore is riding locally with the adequate clothing as long as its over 5°C and temperatures have been mild during the night. Tomorrow is perfect for example :) (In Westdeutschland jedenfalls) Edit: Yep. You convinced me. Either my gf gets her license or one of my best buddies does it.
I'd recommend convincing your gf. I once had the opportunity to ride for a week with a lovely female accompanying me and it was one of the best things I've ever experienced :)
If I was living in Northern Europe right now, instead of Thailand, I would be sold. Looks fantastic for the multitude of reasons you outlined......Chico ❤
I've been to Andalucia many times. Last year I was there for one month in February and March. I had 5 days of sun, the rest was rain and clouds. So, not quite as nice as the Canarys ;)
Servus Schaaf. Aufgrund deiner Videos habe ich mir für Januar 24 eine Woche GC mit Motorrad gebucht. Natürlich war ich so schlau und hatte vergessen, deinen Rabattcode anzugeben... 🙄 Aber das ist egal. Ich bin sehr gespannt auf die Insel, die Kurven und die Honda NC750x, die ich hoffentlich bekomme. Danke für das Video - deine Gründe waren absolut überzeugend. Es sind die kleinen Dinge, die zählen.
Freut mich sehr!! Wenn du mir einen Gefallen tun magst, dann sag dem Verleiher bitte, warum du vor Ort bist ;) Viel Spaß, die NC ist perfekt für die Insel!
Schaaf ur pro rider. Can u make a video on cornering and other techniques which could help less experienced young riders like me. I just love the way u corner😍😍
Ja Gran Canaria ist schon ein Traum zum Motorradfahren. Ich war erst im November mit eigenen Motorrad dort, und auch auf Tenerifa, Fuerteventura und Lanzarote. Es ist nur halt so die Inseln sind sehr klein, zb Gran Canaria kennst du spätestens am dritten Tag alle Straßen wobwei Gran Canaria noch eine der größeren Inseln ist. Ich hatte schon wunderschöne 10 Tage auf den Canaren. Meine Afrika Twin hat alles gesehen von besten Asfalt bis gröbsten Schotter. Grüße Gottfried
Hey Schaaf! Fantastic video as always, your footage never disappoints! Stupid Question if you don't mind: How do you manage to bring your helmet by plane? Do the airlines accept it as hand luggage? Thanks and all the best :)
Thanks man! I transport it inside my checked luggage. I have a dedicated OGIO bag for motorcycle luggage. But most airlines also let you take the helmet on board as additional personal item
Hello Schaaf, incredible video🔝 it made me want it to be my next riding destination. As a suggestion you have to go to Mallorca, another Spanish island with incredible places and twisty roads.✌
I was about to write it as well. Spent two weeks this winter (one for holiday and then one for remote work) there and it's the first time I fell in love with a place.
@@Schaaf you have rode the wrong places then! 😏 Nahh, I mean a like GC, even La Gomera is a great to ride too, but for me Tenerife is top. Opinions, i guess...
This video is a poem! 💯😂 Aber ernsthaft: Würde ich nicht jeden Dezember und im Frühjahr auf Mallorca Motorrad fahren, wäre Gran Canaria wirklich eine Reise wert! Übrigens: Menorca ist auch übelst die gute Insel zum Mopedfahren! 👍
Thanks for this interesting video ! It's really encouraging to travel there. If u want to do some very nice off-road, u are welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦. Not fare from Canaria
Mir gefallen deine Reiseberichte besser als die RAW's weiter so 👍 So bekomm ich auch ein wenig Urlaubs feeling bei Regen und Schnee 😁 Habe meinen Gran Canaria trip im Jänner leider wegen Corona absagen müssen, aber das Video mindert die Enttäuschung ein wenig 👌

This is my first time seeing, and hearing you! Totally how I imagined you! 😂 Awesome ride! Also, I love the Kitty!!

thanks a lot mate! I definitely was but at least the bad weather was great for surfing without any crowds :D
Thank you. Mucho gracias. I'm watching this just before heading out to the mountains here on GC.
Perfect!!
What a beautiful place. Looks like a motorcyclist's heaven
100%
Was great to see you and to verbally get you're perspective on things, always enjoy the camera angles and also love Chico 😄😄
Thanks
I have no excuses, It's on my list for late 2022!!!!
YESSS!
I am here on the bike you took, roads and weather awesome
I’ve been twice and ridden for 3 days. Spectacular! We head back next week.
Great to hear! Have fun, Ian!

Astonishing video Shaaf! Delightful scenery and good tips of info about an excellent holyday destination. Thanks!
Welcome!!
love love Gran Canaria
Me too ;)
Buenas rutas por la isla y bonitos paisajes. Saludos desde gran canaria

Thanks Ammar!
Huhu Schaaf,
can't wait for the RAWs, but even this video was very nice. Definetly enjoyed the scenic shots, if I find some free time (and can convince some friends) I'd love to go there.
Keep up the great work, really love your content.
Doooo iiiiittt! Thanks :)
A really fantastic video of a fantastic island. Thanks a lot for this informative piece 👍
Thanks Gunnar!
Keep it up schaaaaaaf, nice Video!
Thanks!
You always manage to inspire Schaaf. Thank you. Coming from Canada I'm planning to travel European roads this summer!
Excellent plan!!
GC tourism owes you bigtime. I'm sold 😳
Good :D
Excellent video, definitely noted on the bucket list.
thanks Danny!!
I’m ready to go now!
Awesome!
Nice, informative and to the point - might need to book some tickets for late 2022. Good stuff Schaaf!
I think you do!! Thanks Celly!
Best video I've seen on RUclips so far.
Best observer of delicious Schinken I've known
My excuse - my third most fav.activity after motorcycling and simracing - wintersport!!! But yeah, GC would be nice as well
That's a valid excuse :)
Thank you!!!! for this poetic video🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks Paolo
wow! great video! a very refreshing one. Love this, and your signature videos definitely.
Thanks Ralph
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it

i have no excuse, i keep telling myself to do it and this video finally convinced me to go... i guess that's a new Series...
Yessss
Love you man. Lessgoooo!
Thanks
incredible vid ! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Danke!!
I'm from south Spain (Andalusia), so I can ride during winter as well but man, I need to go to GC!!
Yes you do!
Ausrede: Keine. Hast mich überzeugt! Jetzt kann ich mich garnicht mehr zwischen Spanien und GC entscheiden. 😁 Und: Super Video, mega gemacht. Respekt!
Ich dank dir!! Ich mag beide Destinationen , aber im Winter sind mir die Kanaren wesentlich lieber. Es ist einfach um einiges wärmer dort ;)
Great video if only for the twist after curve after twist after curve clips but it was informative too👍
I went to Tenerife once and it was wonderful, sadly it was after my spine issues stopped me riding but to hire a bike would have been a dream ride.❤️
Speed and ride safe my friend.😊👍

Been there twice before. GC is a lot better for riding IMO
I have been there 5 times... after 1st time I committed to go every winter.
Excellent decision
@@Schaaf best antidepressant for long Winter's PMS
Been to LPA so many times for work and never realised how insane the roads are although I have sampled some lovely food and wine there. I am definitely going before the spring
Honestly I'd be satisfied with just food, sun, and wine too ;)
The videography is insane. Ur presentation is also good, do these kind of videos often
thanks mate!
Fabulous place to visit in a European winter 👍

It definitely is and there's still a lot left for me to explore ;)
Sehr cool 😎

Since you asked - I don't go on a winter escape due to time and people I am close to. It is difficult to justify to leave for a week during the limited free time that I could spend with my girlfriend in between the fall and spring semester (we're both still studying, we only have around two weeks of free time). My "winter escape" therefore is riding locally with the adequate clothing as long as its over 5°C and temperatures have been mild during the night. Tomorrow is perfect for example :) (In Westdeutschland jedenfalls)
Edit: Yep. You convinced me. Either my gf gets her license or one of my best buddies does it.
I'd recommend convincing your gf. I once had the opportunity to ride for a week with a lovely female accompanying me and it was one of the best things I've ever experienced :)
If I was living in Northern Europe right now, instead of Thailand, I would be sold. Looks fantastic for the multitude of reasons you outlined......Chico ❤
Ah well. Thailand was my winter escape of choice before the pandemic hit :D Thanks Dave
Gracias Schaaf! Tu si que sabes disfrutar en moto! Vs 😁
de nada
The bad thing is that in 1 week you end up seeing it all. Next time you can go to Tenerife. It is even more exaggerated with a volcano 4000 m high.
In 4 days of riding I didn't manage to see all the great roads. On Tenerife I did in just 3 days. I much prefer GC
You can ride in southern and eastern mainland Spain all year round as well, nice weather is guaranteed 👌
I've been to Andalucia many times. Last year I was there for one month in February and March. I had 5 days of sun, the rest was rain and clouds. So, not quite as nice as the Canarys ;)
Moim Schaaf, deine Videos sind wirklich ein Genuß und werde defintiv so ein Trip nachahmen. Welche Maschiene bist du denn dort am liebsten gefahren?
Die Tracer 700
Servus Schaaf.

Thanks man! I transport it inside my checked luggage. I have a dedicated OGIO bag for motorcycle luggage. But most airlines also let you take the helmet on board as additional personal item
Hello Schaaf, incredible video🔝 it made me want it to be my next riding destination.
As a suggestion you have to go to Mallorca, another Spanish island with incredible places and twisty roads.✌
I'll be there in early April but Gran Canaria offers a much bigger road and scenery variety :)
You should try Tenerife then, 100x better imo
I was about to write it as well. Spent two weeks this winter (one for holiday and then one for remote work) there and it's the first time I fell in love with a place.
I've been to Tenerife twice and I like Gran Canaria quite a lot more
@@Schaaf you have rode the wrong places then! 😏 Nahh, I mean a like GC, even La Gomera is a great to ride too, but for me Tenerife is top. Opinions, i guess...
I've ridden both islands quite extensively and Gran Canaria offers more variety of better roads
Oh wow, what a beautiful place! Were the fun roads always that empty, or did you have to go out early to avoid traffic?
I'd say around 50% of the roads had little traffic, the others moderate
This video is a poem! 💯😂
Aber ernsthaft: Würde ich nicht jeden Dezember und im Frühjahr auf Mallorca Motorrad fahren, wäre Gran Canaria wirklich eine Reise wert!
Übrigens: Menorca ist auch übelst die gute Insel zum Mopedfahren! 👍
Mallorca möcht ich mir auch mal wieder anschauen! Danke!
I couldn´t agree more!!!!
Thanks Ignacio!!
OMG I want it!!!
you should :D
Yep, on my shortlist...I see now, that one time you told Nasty that your overdue vid got eaten by your cat, that wasn't even a lie! :D
Finally! Someone who believes me :D
Thanks for this interesting video ! It's really encouraging to travel there. If u want to do some very nice off-road, u are welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦. Not fare from Canaria
I'd love to but unfortunately I can't afford a big journey like that. Thanks though
Mir gefallen deine Reiseberichte besser als die RAW's weiter so 👍
So bekomm ich auch ein wenig Urlaubs feeling bei Regen und Schnee 😁
Habe meinen Gran Canaria trip im Jänner leider wegen Corona absagen müssen, aber das Video mindert die Enttäuschung ein wenig 👌
Auweh, das is natürlich bitter :( Hoffentlich wirds in naher Zukunft was!!
