- The Spanish trans euro trail, or TET and french TET are some of the best riding in Europe. This is a film about our adventure down through France and through the spanish TET, heading over the pyrenees and towards the Tabernas desert. The big question is, will we find adventure??

This is one of those classics that you always go back to watch, great viewing 👍🏻
Haha, that's awesome, thanks dude 👊🏻😎
@@lightweightadv I take my CFR to the park to eat my lunch, that's my big adventure for now 😅.
I liked the human side that your story brings, by sharing your inner feelings with your audience.
The most beautiful landscapes in the world will never replace
the memories you will keep from spending a little time in contact with the natives
This story allowed me to remember my first motorcycle trips and I thank you for it
Philippe (Brussels)
Thank you! It was certainly a very special trip for us. We look back at it very fondly 😎
Now that was a proper adventure trip. From freezing in your tents to getting hammered in Bordeaux(?) to forming a world class string band in the south of Spain. You did it yourselves, no camera crew and chase trucks. You learned the true meaning of adventure. Thanks. It feels like I was along for the ride.
Haha, thanks Darrell. It was such a great trip, brilliant memories. We're about to head out again, off to the Balkens this year 👍🏻
That’s what it’s all about!
What a trip!!!! Fun guys!
Haha thanks buddy 😎
That was a really great travelogue of the holiday. Congratulations for doing it and taking us along with you! Well done you two!
Hey Steve, cool comment, thanks 😎👍🏻
This is brilliant guys thank you
It's our pleasure, thanks 😎👌🏻
Great trip and video! Just to let you know for the next one to Spain, check it out the local laws about camping in the wild and specially setting up a fire, because we've got quite a few wild fires recently and the laws are really strict about it, because the risk it takes, and if a guard catches you there with a fire you'll definitely get in BIG trouble and the penalties are huge!
Yeah, we've since learned that! Thanks for the heads up however 😎👍🏻
Superb! Thanks guys! As lightweight adventurers, you're super-inspirational to all of us sofa-adventurists!
Amazing, thanks 😎. Adventure is out there for all of us 👍🏻
This is just a brilliant film about I guess friendship and adventure. This is my third time watching this.
Just seen this comment, how cool! Thanks dude, we really appreciate it 👊🏻😎
Awesome chaps, looks like you had a great time. I thought it the boy band could rivel Take That. Keep it up. Mick
In today's modern music landscape, I'd back us. Thanks Mick! 😎👍🏻
Thoroughly enjoyed the film gentleman. Love dual sport adventures and thanks for letting me live this amazing trip vicariously
Hey, thanks for the comment, sorry its taken a while to reply! Really pleased you enjoyed the film, we're just about to set out on our next trip, so we're pleased you're along for the ride now 👌🏻
Adventure is what you want it to be.
I have a friend who says if you have an adventure on any motorbike then by default that bike becomes an adventure bike 🙂
Yeah, that's a fair statement I think!
"Clutch Out, Gun It, Go!" That's a very adventure-seeking hoodie ! Thanks for the laughs, AND the inspiration, guys. I'm definitely going to do the same as you, cept I'm going to do it on my own cos I'm Billy No Mates, my missus doesn't like bikes and my dog hasn't got a bike licence...
Would be an amazing adventure in a sidecar with a dog...just saying 🤷🏻♂️
Bloody brilliant video I love long vids these 7 min one's just because people get bored sod them,really good lads. Love your dad's song and the tail of two trips. Keep up the good work👍
Thanks man, well if you like longer vids keep an eye on the channel because our feature length trip of this years trip to the Balkans is inbound very soon 😎
You’ve done ok with your video guys 👍
Thanks buddy 👍

Ah, very cool. Roll on next year and another adventure
Awesome, thanks guys for sharing this great experience of yours! Greetings from Ireland!
No problem, really pleased you enjoyed it 👊🏻😎
Well done lads on yer trip and a the video ye made was a great watch.
Thank you
Ah thanks, it was our pleasure, we head out again in a few weeks, this time to the Balkans 👍
Brings back some great memories of 2 x crf's
Me and the wife on our bikes in albania, then Croatia
Moved onto different bikes but now just purchased 2 more crf 250 as they just Rock
Great video guys and thanks for scratching that itch again
Hey no problem, it’s interesting you mention the Balkans actually as our most recent trip this year was over that way and we had a great time in Bosnia 🇧🇦
That was a great trip & loved watching it. Cheers lads 👍
Thanks, really pleased you enjoyed it 😎👌🏻
Fantastic guys, well done both on the trip and the film. Top men 👏
Thanks Mike, glad you enjoyed it
Really excellent film and story. Loved the exploration of what adventure is.
Hey Richard, thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, after watching this I bought a CRF250 Rally and am loving it so far
Hey Darron, that's great to hear, they are such a capable little bike. I'm sure it will take you on some cool adventures 😎
Hey lads ... Just wanted to congratulate you for taking your channel in this direction. Really hope this 'travelogue' content gets as much traction as your tires 👍🏼 I'm tuned in for sure.
Thanks mate. We try to travel as much as possible. If only we could travel every day, eh 🤷🏻♂️
Love this film. Just bought a 300l and love it!
Awesome stuff, thanks buddy 👍
Just brilliant guys, we’ll done 😀
Thanks Steve, really appreciate it. The trip was excellent, we already can't wait for this year's adventure!
That was great , the highlight was defiantly the singing , One of my mates sent me this link to your channel and this vid , he said we so need to do this , and i am sure we will, Looking forward to more of your vids 👍👍👍👍
Ah, ace! You'll have a blast. Get it booked and get out there, you'll not regret it 👊🏻😎
What an adventure!
It really was. We loved every last minute of it 👌🏻
Most excellent 👍👍👍
Cheers Ian 👊🏻😎
Fantastic video guys, only 30 mins in and loving it!! As a new owner of a 250L your videos are really helpful. Channel deserved much more sub, views and likes
Hey welcome aboard 👍 that's such a cool comment thanks for the support buddy.
We have also started to put on a festival you might be interested in if you are located in the UK, details on our website, ride safe buddy 👍
@@lightweightadv thanks mate. I will check it out. Based in Glasgow cheers
Great film, really enjoyed it!
Thanks 🙏 glad you enjoyed it 😎
Wow those are some impressive sceneries !
It's an incredible area of the world
An Adventure can be anything you don’t normally do. I’ll be having an adventure riding up from the south coast to join you for your festival. Great film gents, looking forward to hearing your solo rendition of Jack of
Diamonds in a field in the Peak District.
😂 yes these voices aren't for the faint hearted 😳 look forward to having a beer with you 🍺
Yep totally agree, an adventure can be anything out of your norm, couldn't have put it better 👌
@@lightweightadv Cheers Gents! Is there a bar at this festival or have we got to bring our own booze?
We have a bar! We had that covered before anything else 😁
So good.
Thanks! 👊🏻😎
Hi from Mallorca, a 300 L owner here, enjoying it a lot. Happened to get to the Pic Negre in Andorra in late June and met an English couple there, she was riding the same bike as me. Gonna enjoy your videos, for sure. Cheers 🍻
Hey, great to hear you're living the high life in the sun 😎. Really pleased you enjoyed the film. Thanks 👍🏻
Trez bon vidéo mon-sirs. That looked like a great little adventure and both of you and the bikes did you proud. The TET looks like a sure win down there, hoping to get a 300L this year and a ride in Tabernas desert is now on my bucket list!
Hey Fromantic, thanks for the comment, yeah we loved it and learned a lot, we’re off on our next one in a few weeks time 😎
I’m sure you won’t regret the desert or the bike 😎
Best of luck Alex!
💪❤🇷🇸
Thanks dude
Much Enjoyment 👍😎
Thanks 😊
It looked like a lot of fun, that song jack of diamond is Great, my daughter has made it into a ring tone on her phone.
Haha, that's awesome! Yeah, it was a great trip. You'll be singing Jack of diamonds all day now 😅
Just shown Papa T this and he thinks it’s great 😎🤘
Enjoyed that. Smaller bikes are great. 6 of us did the Picos in April/May. 3 x DRZ 400, 1 x 850 GS, 1 x T7 & 1 x KLX400.
You're gonna have the best time Mike. The DRZ might well be the ideal bike for it 👌🏻
A shout out to Honda for their quality engineering on the bikes
Absolutely 👍 really solid performance
Brilliant Gents
Thank you! We're still super proud of this film, nearly 2 years on 😎
Hey guys.
If you really like long and quiet gravel and forest roads with changing views, come to north - Sweden and specially here in Finland.
Camping in the forest is free and safe. Also it´s legal because of "Every Man´s Right".
That sounds perfect 👌🏻, one day we'll come
Great video guys
Thanks Mark 👊🏻😎
A gold star 😊
BSA guy was a star
Still is. We made contact back in the UK and have now become good friends 😎👌🏻
Tabernas , thats my off the grid bolt hole, my brother has built a "rock house", hidden into the hillside. Up the rambla outside Tabernas. we ride our bikes up there, Hondas, Dauville, GLX ,NC750x, BM F650gs, his next trip will be from UK on a honda 110cc ex japanese postie bike. My next trip will be on a 1600 triumph, so may be a bit of struggle up the track, we are 68 and 70.
Haha, what a great place to build a bolt hole 😎. Some excellent riding around there, I bet you enjoy it each time 👌🏻
Greate film, at 1.02.30 your comment is zakly right, my mate and I are just te same,campsite, bottle of red,something to eat ,put the worlds problems right jobs a goodun. Next day ,same again. Proper.
Excellent film. Is the featured band playing at the 2023 festival 😂
They might just be 😏🤫😂 glad you liked the film buddy 👍
Interesting comments ridden much of Northern Spain as well as most bits of Europe mainly solo and have learnt myself that as much as I love being out in the sticks riding trails and wild camping etc I also enjoy being in a small village here and there and being around people even if its just sitting and watching people over a le cafe. As a soloist i just mix it up as best I can as the mood takes me. Some like to create a challenge and agenda and need to do the best they can to accomplish it, others prefer to remain flexible and change to suit the mood, circumstances or feel for enjoyment at the time. dont they have wind turbines in Lincolnshire?
Hey Bikenav, yep, we learned a lot on that trip. Predominantly, how we tackle future adventures. The towns and villages became our favourite places to hang out 🤷🏻♂️. The wind turbines in France are sooo much bigger (or at least it seems 😅). Thanks man 👊🏻😎
Nice Adventure!
Which tire did you put on the CRF´s and how long did it last?
Michelin Trackers, they're the tyre of the moment 👌🏻
You guys need to make a deal with Mosko Moto. A couple luggage problems this trip.
100%, we were still figuring that out. We've since moved to Adventure Spec Magadans and the Giant Loop Coyote 👌🏻
Hello
I am on the verge of taking the plunge and doing this type of trip , can I ask why not the 450 Honda ?
I’ve ridden the 250’s and for my size n weight they seem underpowered
Do it. Reason we took the 250s was long days riding at highish revs, so we were looking for reliability. We did 5.5k miles on that trip.
A great film but why all that motorway through France?
To make up/save time in Spain unfortunately 🤷🏻♂️
@@lightweightadv It was for the crossaints .
Was searching for the riding ... hmmm
👍🏻 agreed the video never shows how steep they are
It was crazy steep, one of the hardest we've ridden, especially with luggage!
@@lightweightadv I got directed up a dry ski slope in France , didn’t realise until I started seeing chair lifts and angry ramblers 😂 silly English tourist. I had to take the luggage off to get down and run back up to get it lol
😂
Great vid guys! Did you ever wish to have more gasoline on your bikes. Thinking todo something similar and wonder if I should have more than 150km autonomy. What donyou thik?
Thank you 😎. It's a funny thing really, because we sometimes think we need more fuel, but we've never run into a situation where we're too far away from a station. Southern Europe is pretty well populated. That said, I've fitted a 6L camel tank to the Rally, ready for when I travel around South America this year 😎👍🏻
@@lightweightadv that helped me !!!! Thank you a lot! What is your aproxímate autonomy?
Was probably 200km, now 300km 😎
@@lightweightadv woow thought It was less on the Honda.. Thanks again ;-)
I know I am a year late however all I want to say that this is a great video, it inspired me honestly. I want to sell/exchange my honda shadow vt750 A.C.E for an adventure capable bike that can carry me, luggage and a passenger, I believe a honda transalp 650, kawasaki klr or maybe one of the bigger dual sport bikes, I would gladly consider any recommendation anyone has as long as the passenger can sit at least somewhat comfortable on it since I do not know many models and what to search for.
What month did you go ?
Mid April Tony 👍🏻
Hey Jamie, can I go to your dad's house? Amazin!
Hey Darrell, hah yeah it’s such a cool place eh 😎
Hi Mates! take a tour of Catalonia in "the Austin Vince areas", it's always wonderful !
Beautiful video / Can you tell me (please) what's the GPS 📍 P.O.I. - or name of B&B House at 50th minute of video ?
(THX a Lot 📌Best Regards)
Liuk (Milan-Italy)
Hey Like, this is actually Jamie's Dad's home. Fantastic area to explore 👌🏻
@@lightweightadv Ah ok sorry 🤩/I I thought it was a fantastic B&B ... right / If you can , tell me only where is the Canyon zone before the water stream that you followed / THX ! have a good Ride / Ciao!
What are those padded long sleeve black tops?
Hello mate, I'm not sure which tops you mean? What minute of the film can you see them?
40.35 those black tops you both have on ?😊
@@midlifeadventures77 gotcha. Jamie has on the Leatt Airflow armour and I have on an alpinestars jersey over the Alpinestars Bionic V2 armour 🤟🏻
@@lightweightadv ahh thanks legend 🤙
39:30 - Now experience it on your own.... 'n I'm being deadly serious
What bikes are you both using? 👍🏽
Ones a CRF250L the other is a CRF250 Rally 😎👍🏻
I’d go and buy a standard battery mate for a spare
Yep, that has happened 😂
To light a fire to cook or to keep warm in Spain is extremely ilegal and wild camping also.......you're extremely lucky that the Seprona didn't catch you.... I am talking about motorcycles confiscated , heavy fine etc.etc....
Oh wow, well we didn’t realise that, thanks for letting us know, good to share the knowledge 👍
it's ok in my book hey we love to have you here in Spain just keep it in mind.
Nice trip, and the way we like it. I guess the difference is just ten years older... I incourage you to try and make it to marocco next time, it is absolutly worth it. Though spain and portugal are already amazing ( that's our little video from last year: ruclips.net/video/jho8jt9TPjM/видео.html&ab_channel=LaMotoTousChemins )/ It's in french... But you'll get the idea, it's the same as yours. Thanks for sharing your advendture. I'm still looking for the right definition. Risk is part of it. But risk is relative to everyone, so that would not suffice; and would not be a good enough reason to go looking for it. "The more unknown as possible" would be my compass. Bye !
Morocco may well be on the list for this year already 😎. Thanks for the message 👍🏻
Nice vid, but so many adverts! Had to stop watching…
DofR, thanks for the heads-up earlier, we've managed work out how we thin out the adverts SIGNIFICANTLY 😎
