Going SOLO

[Ghost_Bullet]

Solo rides are good, though I do enjoy the company as well.
But riding to your own beat, going your own direction along with stopping and going in an instant is a true freedom.
And the people you meet along the way help to make some awesome memories.

I agree, solo longer rides in different cultures can be therapeutic. My view of world and life changed after epic rides l made to continental europe.

 

[Ghost_Bullet]

You are so right, it's an awesome thing to have vision altered.

That looked like a marvelous journey, thanks for sharing! Those roads looked fantastic as you said, and the views looked equally sublime. Definitely jealous of your weather, it's still pretty cold and dark up here in the Northern US.

I particularly enjoyed your sharing of the sights and sounds, especially around the springs. Definitely looked like a rejuvenating ride to have done.

Thank you very much. Appreciate you taking time to watch.
And so pleased that you enjoyed.

That natural spring bubbling up out of the ground is wonderful. I can't get too much of the giant ferns. You almost expect to see a dinosaur crashing through the greenery.

 

[Ghost_Bullet]

The water is insane, and not truly able to be captured. If only I could have put the camera under water.

The more of New Zealand that I experience vicariously through your videos, the more I really want to visit your country.

Such a spectacular natural treasure. Lucky you.

Enjoyed the vid, awesome riding country, I ride solo most of the time. I want to go at my own speed, and pull over when I like.

Another day beyond the bubbling spring. The Griso hauled me and my gear over some rough roads for sights not soon to be forgot.

It was nice to see an ocean shoreline with no plastic washed up. Beautiful.

 

[Ghost_Bullet]

That's bloody sad that there is waste on shores around the world.
We are pretty lucky here, though there are some lazy people around that will still drop there waste in places they shouldn't.

The last couple of films of the trek if you have not seen them.... Embarking on a few days away from tomorrow... Finally clicked over 200,000km on the mighty Griso.

 

[scottmastrocinque]

I am amazed at where you take your GRISO! “A little bit of a challenging road…”.

You go places where I know guys with V85TT’s do not go.

Congratulations on 200,000 km! Wow.

 

[Ghost_Bullet]

Thank you... ha ha it is a good time... I dont want to kill the griso, But I do like to see places a little off the track... maybe I should have a v85 or a stelvio haha

I have to admit that I almost get seasick from the cognitive dissonance of you always driving on the damn wrong side of the road.

Hurts my brain just watching it!

Ha ha ,, I get that when campers or cars come at me from the wrong side of the road... though a little more than seasick

Nearly always ride solo and absolutely have to think hard about the Europeans riding on the "wrong" side of the road. Only once to date got it momentarily wrong.

Wonderful, wonderful adventure! I’m glad you didn’t pass that little car when that flatbed semi carrying hay was coming! And, I learned a new term … “water snot!” Hehehehe. Always great music choices.
