    I absolutely loved exploring Romania. I was last there in 2004 when there were very few roads and very few vehicles. I did a bit of the trans alpina by car which was awesome by bike it must be awesome. Romania is a hidden gem.

    That road looks like it would be absolutely amazing in the dry. Feel for all of you who've travelled so far when the weather isn't with you.
    Poor TMF..... he might make it that far if there are enough 4 star hotels on route

    Had a very similar experience in France near Carcassonne. Beautiful views apparently. At 20mph we should have been going slowly enough to take them in, but with visibility at about 20m we could barely see the road ahead. Great video. Keep them coming.

    That's not fog... you were with your head in the clouds. The highest altitude is about 2300 m... which I think (not sure) it si even higher than Transfagarasan. I have done this trip last year coming from south, Transalpina, stop-over in Sibiu and returned home by Transfagarasan. Best trip ever.

    @ryanmalone2681 Год назад +1

    Such a cool trip. Just a question though: if you’re only staying on the asphalt, why the ADV helmet? With a normal helmet you could have a clear visor and then a flip down tinted visor on the outside or inside? Seems like you needed it.

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  Год назад

      I like the look of the peaked lid, plus it’s very handy for keeping sun out your eyes at times.
      I’ve got a few other ‘normal’ lids but never really wear them now

      It’s one off eBay, wireless charging and even has a usb port. Fits most phones and yes it’s waterproof - as in it’s unaffected by rain etc.
      Most modern smartphones are waterproof anyway.
