I feel Lucy's pain. As a 5'4" male with a 27" inseam, riding adventure bikes is pretty difficult. They all have very tall seat heights, which is very frustrating. I am going to check out a Yamaha 250 XT. Obviously, I wont be doing itchy boots stuff, but I can still play in the dirt and ride on street. I did check out Himalayan, but it is quite a bit heavier than the Yamaha.

have a look into getting a lowering kit for a crf250l its a super light manageable bike when you lower it. you can easily pick it up off the floor.

Cool video. That's much more professional than what mine will be like 🤣. Mine might not be quite so positive this year too. I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was the 3rd year for me. Probably my last. It's got too big for me & starting to become something else. I loved your photos. You seem like a really cool happy couple. I'd have liked to have had a beer with you both. Take care 🤘

Good effort on the trail and expertly ditched! I'll have the perfect starter adventure bike for sale at the end of the year once the Grand Challenge is over. It survived the ABR and TRF trails no problem and I reckon Lucie could easily flat foot it (as it's pretty cripplingly short for me 😅) Here it is in action kzread.info/dash/bejne/qZNkwciwe6rKqMo.html

Thanks, Bob! That looks like a lovely little bike actually - definitely something for us to think about as a first bike for Luc. Would be interested to know the price for something like that.

I am glad that you had a good time. I see the get togethers like this, but I have never been tempted to go. Was it worth it? How about Lucy, did you enjoy it?

Hi Dave! Yeah it was a really great event - you should consider going next year! There was less for Lucie to get involved with, but she still enjoyed it.

Adventure bikes, the bikes like the BMW GS. Buy one on HP for £20k, cover it in crash bars, apply paint protection, fit a GPS and a phone GPS backup, only ride it on the local roads, book your annual week holiday to the continent through the GS owners club because then you will have safety in numbers and the route has been done by other GS owners many times in the past. Pre-book all hotels, only ride on the road to keep the bike clean. Arrive home and think you have had an adventure, unbelievable.

Hey! Maybe some riders do it this way and that ABSOLUTELY FINE! Do what makes you happy! But please watch our other videos. We bought a second-hand GS and rode it 40,000km through 30 countries over 9 months! 😊
Loose that awful musac for goodness sake. What’s it supposed to be for?? It’s literally competing with your narration and ruining the entire experience. 4:00 cannot watch any more.

Hey! Thank you for the feedback - the balance of the music is always something we are trying to improve - we like the energy it brings but yeah sometimes it over powers the speaking. ❤
