It All Goes Very Wrong… Barcelona to England, the Last Leg.

- Опубликовано: 15 июн 2022
- The final leg of my Barcelona to England motorcycle road trip and things all start to go very wrong.
I start in southern France, with the aim to make it back to England by the end of the day.
Wild camping, getting lost at night, torrential rain, a broken bike... and a final, nervous push.

Welcome to the wonderful world of British bike motorcycling!
It's only when things go wrong do things get really interesting. With the bike developing a fault changes your perspective from a journey to a trial. You're willing it to just keep going one more mile, just one, then another, your ears are hearing every single noise, intently listening for any slight deviation or increase.
You feel the bikes pain, you ride differently, you somehow try to become lighter to lessen the load. With the bike developing a fault meant you actually become almost as one.
When you finally reach your destination your heart sings and you get off walk away stop turn back and look at your bike, smile and silently thank it for seeing you home..
A bit melodramatic perhaps but anyone who has ridden old British motorbikes on a regular basis knows exactly how you felt throughout the journey home..
An absolute joy as always 🙂
Written like a poet.
Everything… spot on. This describes exactly my journey back🙂👌🏻
As a rider of an older (but mostly faithful) Harley, I identify my self living, sometimes, much of that drama brilliantly described. It's, besides being sometimes nerve-racking, part of the thrill.
And, in such emotional subject like motorcycles, being "melodramatic", as you put, is a natural thing, I guess. Just like the sailors stories.
Best regards from Brazil. ✌
An old British bike?
Exactly the same with each'n any of my Guzzis, old and new, with each'n any of the Benellis I ever owned, (old and new), with Ducatis of course, and some of the Rice Cookers, too.
Which is why i do those longer strips these days on a BMW K-bike out of 1986.
I do my maintenance following the book, I repaired two minor issues coming from the bike having been standing still for about 15 years before I got it (for scrap worth), and the rest is biking, not messing around.
As the missus and I always say when we’re on the road, “It’s either a good time or a good story”. Love your work mate.
Good saying 👍
Love that 👍🏼
Spot on
Ain't it the truth! And where would we all be without our "stories."
@@michaelcayer8358 aw hell naw
Gripping.
I don't do reality TV, but I'm hooked like a junkie on this.
The honesty and openness is refreshing and heartwarming.
Adventure can take many forms, but there is no doubt we just witnessed one.
As the saying goes, " if Carling made RUclips blogs..."
Great work, Mr Dobbs.
We, the viewers salute you.
Happy travels 👍
If carling …. 😂😂😂😂
Thank you si much, I’m delighted you enjoyed the videos!🙂
I think you really need to watch Itchy Boots if you're impressed with this.
Freddie do give us an update on the problems the Bonnie encountered and how they were solved once you've had chance to investigate and rectify. Thanks for posting your adventures/misadventures best wishes.
Yes. This is important
I definitely will do- tomorrow’s vlog!🙂🛠👌🏻
@@FreddieDobbs yes that would be good to know. great series, thanks
As a much older guy experienced in such motorbike trips, I'd say don't rush it, take your time, you need to be able to stop whenever the fancy takes you. Take your tent, but alternate wild camping for one or two nights, with an inexpensive hotel...it breaks things up, plus gives you that hotel to look forward to & shower, TV, charge your phone, breakfast etc.
Personally I'd plan a minimum of two weeks for what you did on this trip & before setting off, make sure your bike is in tip top mechanical condition.
Your bike broke because it wasn't.
If so, emergency cover is less needed.
Above all though, this has been a very very enjoyable watch, you're a natural on camera & at this.
New subscriber here.
All the very best on your next trip.
You're absolutely right sir.
Yep
@@stevek3636
Thank you Steve, it's appreciated.
I've done many motorbike trips & to 29 countries so far. I've found the most enjoyable budget way is to do as I've mentioned.
Quite right, you always need space in your luggage for extra time. Something I learnt quickly on my trips from Germany to Barca on an '89 Tenere. Great times if you can laugh your way through the Sh.. that may come.
These are very good tips, thank you T Man! Delighted you found the channel🙂
You are an absolute flippin' hero Freddie. How on earth you remained so calm and positive with so many set-backs is a miracle - most people would have 'given up' several times over! Fantastic trilogy - enjoyed every minute of your adventure.
Thanks John, and delighted you enjoyed it!🙂🙌🏻
It’s the trials and tribulations of your trip that you’ll look back on with the fondest of memories. Imagine the lack of content a long motorway journey would have provided. Thoroughly enjoyed this series. Excellent. Thank you.
I’m in the United States in Philadelphia. Just bought an 2006 Bonneville because of watching your videos for the past year. Ty for all the content.
Delighted to hear it and congrats on the new purchase!🙂
One piece of advice I always say which has been passed down to me and applies to not just motorcycles but many facets of life - maintenance is a whole lot cheaper and less stressful than repairs and failures in the long run! 😉
Hi Freddie, been there, done that, ate the pie (the humble type on more than one occasion). You articulated well the absolute terror that is felt when it all goes wrong and you're on your own. Back in the 70s and 80s it was worse, no phone and motorways in France were thin on the ground. I was so fortunate at times as total strangers helped me with mechanical assistance and a bed for the night.
Many things to learn from this experience like don't ride at night, carry a basic tool kit and a map. Using campsites is no bad thing, in France and Spain they are relatively cheap, have good facilities (most with a cafe and shop) and you meet like minded people and 'party' so think before giving it up as an option. These days I tend to mix it up with camping and the occasional F1 type motel.
This sounds like its still affordable and pleasant.
I saw The Missenden Flyer meet you in one of his recent episodes and he spoke so highly of you that I decided to check out your channel, and I'm very glad I did! Loving your backlog of content, and this most recent trip, and I dare say you tend to include the best music of the motorcycle youtubers. My good man, you have yourself (at least one) swedish subscriber!
Exactly how I discovered Freddie via TMF. Equally enjoying Freddie’s videos.
Same here 👍
That’s a trip you’ll never forget.It’s always a learning experience if nothing else.
So true🙂
It's everything 🙌 😌 ❤️
Why not going to the nearest Triumph service station ?
I think this is possibly why Itchy Boots rides a Honda! Sorry to hear of your travails. If I had to travel far, it’d be a Honda. Good luck
Thank you Freddie for 3 of the most captivating and entertaining videos I've seen in a very long time.
I'm currently suffering from anxiety and your trip was something my son and I had promised ourselves we'd do one day on our bikes, sadly it'll be a journey I'd have to make alone now but you've reminded me that fortune does favour the brave Freddie and the who dares wins you displayed is totally inspiring.
I'm looking forward to checking out your adventures... thanks again buddy.
Absolutely loved this series of vlogs. Defo agree with you about breakdown cover! To be fair the Bonnie has been sounding progressively worse in the last 10 video’s and sounded awful at the beginning of this trip. The timing chain sounds like its giving up the ghost and slapping itself to death. Please get it to a garage and update us to what was wrong. Hope its not terminal. Keep up the amazing videos, you are without doubt my current favourite blogger!!
That’s very kind of you to say so, thank you!🙌🏻🙂
Timing chain- I’ll try and do this too. Thanks for the heads up👌🏻👌🏻
I'm no bike mechanic, but I was thinking the exact same thing as he drove off in the beginning of this last episode.
Towards the end of this commentary, you mentioned that 'you see so many things'.
It's unfortunate that you didn't share any of those things you saw with us. I think you had more footage of the boat ride than what you did of you on the motorcycle. You really love to talk. Your presentation is exceptional. But you really *REALLY* love to talk.
Try not to give away any more laptops.
Wishing you many more happy and safe travels.
Great series of videos on trip though France. Forty years ago I did a very similar trip, with breakdown, and it was hugely enjoyable - no mobile phones back then, I navigated by the sun and road signs. My tips for riding in France: 1) get yourself a good quality motorcycle satnav - much better than a phone, you always have a satellite signal and mine shows scenic routes, restaurants and hotels. 2) Don't travel on the Peage - ever - it's expensive, boring and tiring and in my experience not any faster than the free routes. You're not seeing France you're just travelling past it. 3) Stay in hotels/pensions/hostels - you can travel much lighter, get a comfortable nights sleep and a shower and spend more time riding and exploring. What you save from the Peage can go towards the hotels.
Character building trip Freddie and one you will look back on with fond memories in time. Any update on what’s wrong with the Bonneville ?
It's a Triumph, hardly surprising 🤣
I own two triumphs lol, they have been excellent.
This is very true- it was some good character building for me👌🏻👌🏻 It was a spark plug issue/lead issue
Motorcycle camping is what you make it. In the beginning I just carried a tent so I could sleep for the night. Over the years, I've learned to enjoy the camping aspect more. I now carry a roomy 2 person tent, cooking equipment, foldable chair and table. I spend a lot of time researching camp spots that are private and have a good view. I love spending the night relaxing alone in nature, just staring into the sunset while enjoying a good drink and snack. I hope you'll give motorcycle camping a proper try.
who needs Jack Kerouac when you have Freddie Dobbs! Some great storytelling and a great adventure, well done Freddie, glad you made it home
It's been a lifetime since I was in Ipswitch. :) Thanks for taking us along for the ride Freddie.
What an episode! That was one hell of a nail-biter. Looking forward to more videos from you, Freddie. Also, a bit of a possible suggestion for those "lonely" hours alone in a tent: a flashlight and a good book.
You don't need a flashlight with an e-book and it is much more compact.
Very true- I will buy a flash light next time!🙂
This guy's speaking skills and presentation are one of the best I've seen .
Great video! I couldn’t wait for each episode to be posted.
I’ve done 24,000 miles of motorcycle travel in the last 18 months. All in the United States, other than a few days jaunt into Mexico. Never a breakdown, but riding a 250cc Yamaha for most of it, and now a 600cc Honda. I’ve never camped more than a couple of nights between hotels. That helps to make the trip less expensive, but the occasional hotel helps to make it less of a drudgery. Camping is also easier if occasionally you stay in the same campsite for two nights as you rest and explore the area. The constant travel each day, while camping each night, really takes a toll. I also try to not have an ambitious plan or schedule to meet.
Experienced this years ago when travelling through France trying to avoid Peage. My satnav was not up to date and i did not have a decent roadmap .Ended up travelling East when i wanted to be South then realized my satnav had a compass which got me going south. Still a night mare and taught me not to rely on just satnav . Understand your nightmare . A decent map can be unfolded and a better picture of the road networks viewed than on a tiny phone or satnav screen .
Bummer with the rain and mechanical problems 😕
One thing about these trips and having a bike. You can become very resourceful and comfortable working on issues as they pop up.
Well done.💪 Especially learning that you have to take care og your bike. What a wonderful trip that has created great memories.
Thanks for sharing this ride with us all. 😊
Love this guy, he's always so honest and his self analysis is excellent. We all make mistakes but as long as we learn from them that's all that matters. Glad you made it home safe.
As a Vlog, that was excellent. Wildcamping abroad, too brave, stick to Scotland. But, I love the way you show the intimate part of traveling, brings it down to a personal level that we can enjoy. We all make mistakes, you, put them in the vid, we, probably would discuss them, laugh, tell you what you did wrong, and then ask you to pay for the next round or two!!
It's what biking's all about, nobody said it's easy, not always Hunky Dory but it's why we love it, the freedom and fresh air good or bad.
Thankyou Freddie from down under. You did exceptionally well. It wouldn,t be a motorcycle trip without some form of drama involving the weather or the mechanical issues or your accomodation or the roads or any number of issues thay only motorcycle travel can give you. Thank you again.
In hindsight I would have slept in a hotel one night before arriving to Barcelona and another night in the trip back to England. As you said, the increase in cost is negligible but the added comfort is huge.
Loved this trilogy Freddie. Your honesty and down to earth attitude deserves a sub. Things I do when travelling is, bike gets a service, carry some tools even an adjustable spanner, tie wraps, Gaffa tape (roll about 3ft onto a Biro or pencil, (holds things together) Araldite, (I take JB Weld, it would’ve saved the Titanic), small multi-tool with various bits, and chain lube, and most importantly, take your time and enjoy yourself, “we’re here for a good time…. Not a long time” thanks for sharing 😃👍
Freddie, your channel is a gem. This London Barcelona travel series was pure joy to watch.
Engine failure under rain, cold, miles and miles abroad, doing math for gas and ETA, what a motivation drain. Glad you made it ;)
An amazing trip! Thanks for bringing us along.
Huge thanks Freddie for publishing your experiences. I rode my Honda CBF1000 5000kms around Spain and Portugal in the summer 2022. Used Air BB's, hotels, hostels and friends sofas. Planning a EU tour for this July, contemplating camping. Great to get your feedback on this type of biking travel.
What an epic journey that was! Loved how you looked quite calm through all that drama. Great series of videos.
Nice one Freddie, that was an amazing trip, so many memories made, some tough times but a truly character building experience.....legend!
Absolutely fabulous and thanks Freddie this is a lesson for us all thanks so much and good luck with the repairs 👍
That was a really great series, thoroughly enjoyable! Great that you got back in one piece and some wonderful memories for you!
What an intense ride with huge ups and downs. Thanks for taking us along and I hope the Bonnie will be alright as well soon!
Freddie!, followed this little series from the start!, loved every episode, what an inspiration you are!, would deffinatly give this a go in the future!, well done you!, what an absolute legend!, all the best!.
Incredible journey Freddie, the ups and downs made it a joy to watch. Love your content
Well done Freddie. You managed to surpass all the difficulties with proper calmness. Hope you don't have to change the bike, hopefully you can repair it with a decent expense. I admire you for being honest and admit the short comings from your end as it should be. That's what makes you a Gentleman.
What a trip, I got to hand it to you, kept it together and filmed through it all, thanks for making the extra effort to take us along with you Freddie ✌️
Such an amazing story and journey, beautiful sites and editing with ups and downs , that bit where it clunked down to 50mph had me on the edge of my seat
Well done Freddie, A real motorcycle experience that you will look back on for a long time , really enjoyed these episodes.👏👏
Totally enjoyed your video as we do all of them, you coped so well on your own overcoming any problems, hope your Bonnies not too expensive to fix, your an inspiration to anyone thinking of planning a trip like this, best wishes mate.
An amazing adventure, maybe a few lessons learned and lifetime memories the joys of biking, glad you home safely, great videos as always thanks Freddie.
That was epic, and your learnings become our learnings!
The hardest the experience, the greater the memories... It has been amazing to follow you through this journey Freddie, can't wait to see more
Well done Freddie, what an ordeal. It’s been great to see the journey warts and all. So good to see your honesty about the experience. Great filming, and music, a great video. I think you need a few days break, but looking forward to your next trip. You’re doing great, both of you.
Cracking trip Freddie really great viewing good to see you digging in like your honesty hope the bike is OK.
Great series Freddie, really engaging. The effort you put into these really shines through, great quality. Thank you.
Well Freddie, your adventure reminds me of old times. I would like to congratulate you. You have graduated from distinguished motorcycle enthusiast to hardcore biker. I would be honored to ride with you across America. You never forget a trip like that. You’ll be telling the story at the bar for years to come. I hope the old triumph survived.
Such a great series of videos. Well done Freddie. Thoroughly enjoyed them
It's all a learning curve mate! Good on you for going it alone and roughing it. Just look at Ted Simon, he left ambitious and clueless with all of the wrong gear but saw more of the world in four years and experienced more than most of us will in a lifetime. My tip is forget the trendy gear and go practical and utilitarian, it makes thing so much more comfortable on a long trip even if you don't look "cool". Oh and take a proper tool kit! You'll have to update us on what actually went wrong with the Bonnie.
mannnnnn!!! I love these videos, better content than Netflix. Keep them coming Freddie
Well that's it then, you just convinced me that for my trip to Spain I am going to book hotels along the way and do it with some comfort. And, even though I have a new bike, I will still take out Road Side assistance coverage. Thanks for your honesty and your humility on this video. Even though it was tough, I am sure you will look back in time with great fondness of this trip, if only for the life lessons provided. Glad you're home safe.
Thank you🙂. And have a brilliant trip!🤘🏻🤘🏻🏍
I’ve just come back from a 10 day tour of Spain and Portugal. I did spend two nights in an hotel when the weather conditions where I needed to be looked awful but apart from that I camped which is my preferred option. By using municipal sites you have all the comforts for about €10 a night. I slept well every night, I showered in clean shower rooms with hot water every night and had a great time at a fraction of the cost of using hotels.
What a legend! You took those troubles with such good character, and even kept on vlogging and documenting the whole journey! Fantastic content. Hope your bike is ok, that bonnie is a true adventure bike now!
Over 20 years ago I was sitting at Dover on my z1000 Kawasaki next to a guy on a Honda cb175. I asked where he was going. South of France he said. I smiled and thought yeah right.
I had decided not to use the motorways as I didn’t want to pay.
4 days later after diversions, getting lost etc I arrived at Saint Tropez. In fact as I arrived by the harbour I noticed a Honda cb175. No word of a lie it was the bloke I had met at Dover. I asked him how long it took him expecting him to say days. A day it took him using the motorway. Tortoise and hare came to mind. Needless to say it was the motorway back 100 mph average. Didn’t take long to get back.
Enjoying your videos 👍
Superb Freddie! I now like your videos before I watch them because it’s guaranteed entertainment brilliantly done as ever.
Raw and real. You actually made me stressed just watching from the comfort of my lounge 😁 top job Freddie👍🏻
Man Freddie, you are a trooper! Thank you for taking us along!
I envy your adventurous spirit. You're right - its about living! Loved your story!
First rule don't travel by motorcycle at night.Always plan to Camp early and leave at daybreak.Then I always somehow break that rule and pay for it.
Oh my god, that was an amazing adventure. Glad you were able to get back on the Bonneville, hopefully the bike is going to be allright!
Glad you made it back with you and the bike in one piece. I'm interested to see what the issue is with the bike, you've got to take care of your ride better.
Beautiful trilogy,Freddie! I think we all enjoyed and suffered with you thru every up and down of the trip! Well done for keeping the high spirits,the Bonnie was a hero,she took you home on her last legs...Let us know what's wrong with her! Way to go!
Well, there have been a lot of tense RUclips viewers this evening. All of us willing you onwards. Epic stuff, its just like my own road trips.Well done Freddie!
Well done! Sounds crazy tough. But worth doing once so you’ll always think back on the tough time when things are super nice at your hotel etc. you’ll appreciate all those little things that everyone else takes for granted. Sometimes hardship puts the rest of life in perspective and makes you resilient. Thanks for sharing it.
A lot of lessons to be heeded, yet still another captivating video. Felt for you in your time of despair but in spite of it all you and Bonnie did it, take care of her and hug Monika.
Smashing video Freddie I honestly have no idea how you keep so upbeat and chipper!
Very, Very well done. It has been a pleasure to have joined you on your adventure.
Awesome Freddie, making memories is what its all about! Hope the Bonnie's issues aren't too serious......
Wow Freddie! What a journey! Your honesty and composure is an example for us all. Fantastic job reflecting from quayside in Ipswich. We were right there with you! Yours is the show we look most forward to … cheers!
🎉
Epic trip Freddie, looking forward to hearing the Bonnie is sorted and back on the road. Would be good to see a vid on getting it repaired as well….as a finale 👍🏻
A truly awesome example to stay calm when sh*t hits the fan, valuable lessons learned and the difference between camping or staying comfortably overnight in a room, even if i'ts a hostel! Awesome video, well done Freddie!! 👍👍
I experienced something like that when i went from Madrid to Barcelona (650kms) on my Royal Enfield Classic 500. The motorways with toll have good illumination, consistent petrol stations through the way, truckers resting areas and picnic areas easily accessible with a simple road that incorporates in and and out from the motorway... i didn't choose this option, instead i chose the 1 lane country road (a parallel one with the toll motorway) and it was a nightmare! but you get what you pay so i just embraced it and prayed that the petrol didn't run out and the bike didn't break... 3 years later im here telling the story, so it went well!
Am so glad you made it...lessons learned..cant wait until the video when you tell us what was wrong with the bike..and that "pure living"...is why so many people go on trips like you did all over the world...great video!!...
Wow Freddie. That was certainly a ride and a half ! Felt like I was with you every kilometre willing your Bonnie to keep going. Well done. Great trilogy, really enjoyed it.
Sometimes the harder trips are the ones we are proud of and remember the most. Good job making it back in one piece.
There's nothing better than the highs of motorcycle touring. There will always be lows (as you know), but they teach you valuable lessons for the next tour. Thanks for taking us along!
Bloody amazing . . . I just couldn't stop watching. An epic adventure that will live long in your memory, I'm sure. It'll be interesting to hear the diagnosis on the engine/transmission noise.
A harrowing ordeal with unforgettable adventure! Thank you Freddie for taking us along!
When you get a chance, I am curious to the fate of the Triumph.
What a trip! Funny how quickly we forget the little things. You’ll appreciate that warm bed in Ipswich. Cheers buddy!
Just loved this series👍 Entertaining, informative, fun, high quality filming/editing, exciting - just great!👏🏼🏍💨💨
This sounds like the best journey ever. You'll appreciate what you've been through (in about 3 years) and dine out on the story way, way past your riding years. Also, this is when you realise, all deadlines are self imposed! Great vid and it's reminded me of some of mine.
Thank you for taking me with you on the journey. I really enjoyed it.
Brilliant series ... absolutely compelling.....you're going from strength to strength with this channel 👍
I have just come back from a 4 weeks trip. 8.108 kms through Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Andorra, Switzerland and back to good ol' Germany. I loved it to bits, but in terms of acommodation I have chosen to vary things a bit. Roughly two thirds of the nights I used my tent (Outwell Earth 2) and for the rest I booked me some nice and cosy hotel rooms, especially after bad weather or cold nights. That was a fairly good choice because after a torrential downpour there is no bloody way to get your stuff dry in a small tent...
Absolutely loved it, The Bonneville is one tough color cookie 🤩Fantastic Freddie.
I was really hoping well for you. I was relieved to see that you made it back. A memorable adventure!
What a trip! I can only imagine what that would have felt like, very happy you made it.
Intrested to see what you find is wrong with the bike, would love to see some mechanical visuals, and hoping it's not to costly for you, cheers Jem
this brought back so many memories for me in an eloquently presented package. Despite all the setbacks, the trials and tribulations, I wouldn’t swap them out for anything. It’s our freedom being on the open road on a bike. Look forward to following more adventures 🙌🏍
Great series of Vlogs Freddie, enjoyed every moment with you mate!
At last a real motorbike vlog !!!! u made it back . respect .
Great to follow your trip Freddie very interesting , you will be talking about it for years to come. Best of luck future trips
Thanks Andy!🙂
Hi from India. I discovered your channel whilst searching about London. I love your channel. I own a enfield 350 standard.
You are absolutely right. One must need to take care of their bikes.
Things go wrong and people make mistakes. But not everyone looks in the mirror , holds their had up and admits how they could have done better. Nice work Freddie and a great video because it gives us all something to consider when planning a trip and deciding priorities.
Lot to be said for an old school map 😉 at least you'll remember this journey, the memories build character
Absolutely agree (in both parts🙂👌🏻)
@@FreddieDobbs at least you did it, plenty of guys just ride to Starbucks and back 😜💪
@@niallmatthews2801 some only as long as it’s sunny 😉
