His next trip in late may is to the alps of France and Italy on his 1960 Honda CL450 im buzzing for him.

    We've camped from my bike since 1978. We always chose one and two star camping sites when possible. They're cheaper and quieter. There are so many cheap restaurants in Portugal and they're very good. Go and explore the food. Eat it! There are more to food than fish and chips and bacon and eggs. You cheated yourself in Italy and you are cheating yourself in Portugal. Try the local food. The N2 is very beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

    • @ontheroadadventure
      @ontheroadadventure  7 дней назад

      I didn’t know there was star ratings for camp sites? How do you search for the sites you will use? We found it very pot luck if it was good or not, some of the big sites were like concrete parking lots for campers especially in south of Spain. We are new to the moto camping but this month moto camping tour should teach us a few lessons along the way

    Earplugs are the kiddie. I wouldn't go camping without them. I have to say looking at campsites in Europe, on this and other channels I watch, they are pretty different from those in the UK. I don't know if that is good or bad or if it even matters, just an observation really. The N2 is still delivering the goods though, amazing.

    • @ontheroadadventure
      @ontheroadadventure  16 дней назад +1

      @neilmackinnon3371 16 дней назад +1

      @@ontheroadadventure The gravel and stone is what I have spotted on lots of occasions. It's as if they are putting tents on a caravan / camper van pitch. I have not ever had that in the UK but I get the impression it's not that unusual in Europe.

    It might not be the cuisine of choice, but you can always get coffees there, and the facilities are usually ckean. Free WiFi, too. Have their uses!
    The soup might be caldo verde. Basically potato with strips of cabbage. A national dish!
    Bakeries ( Padaria) are a good choice for pitstops. All sorts of fresh savouries as well as cakes and pastries. Usually good coffee too.
    Ride safe 👍

    You both have laminated membrane waterproof jackets, so why carry additional waterproofs. All they will do is create condensation when worn and excess bulk when not worn. My laminate jacket is 100% waterproof, but if I open the waterproof zips, The airflow is good for 35c days.

    • @ontheroadadventure
      @ontheroadadventure  15 дней назад

      For us the additional waterproofs have several advantages besides ensuring we are kept dry and our textiles do not fail in hours of relentless rains. They give a additional layer of warmth, protection from the winds and at night our waterproof layers are Oxford Bright seal which glow brightly in the dark which increases our visibility and safety

    I rode through a mountain pass once where clouds came in and I could barely see in front of me. Not going to lie it was amazing!
    Best thing I seen was wild horses halfway up the mountain, their hair so long it was on the ground and they were in my path so I had to stop and just admired them. Great experiences travelling by bike
