@@user-cf8sn3nv5b I don't think so... He had L plates on in the UK, so I'm guessing he's illegally riding in Europe. Weird.

You could use Komoot on the road cycling setting. It will choose the best route point to point, using popular cycling routes.

Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman know how you feel, they fell hundreds of times in the movies "Long Way Down" some in "Long Way Down"

Nothing like a double hernia to get you in the mood for an overland solar adventure, ideal preparation!

The motorcyclists helping Louis out as he drops the scooter multiple times had me cracking up.

Every single time i click a video from Louis i already know my vibes are going to be happy. Such a positive guy! thanks for the uploads!

This is exciting!

We just recently watched the electric van series and then here comes Louis, back with another electric vehicle trip. Just for our very stressful viewing pleasure. :)

I love this video so much!! It’s like getting a little glimpse inside your brain - I love how happy and grateful you are ❤️ and the ‘bonjour cows’ was the best 😂

Love this old styled video! Keep em coming

For an efficient route, you could try changing Google map settings to EV and the “prefer fuel efficient routes” when setting up a route. You can also change the settings to avoid motorways and tolls if needed

Just a thought, but would your back up power bank fit between your feet on the "running" board? If so, it might help with keeping a lower point of gravity.

Even before I started watching, I knew Louis was going to run his batteries out!🤣🤣 but he keeps us on the edge as we cross our fingers for the batteries to reach next charging point. Who remembers the converted electric VW combi great trip in the US? Great guy he takes all his audience with him on the trip. Cant wait the next one...off to Instagram to check!😂

its great to see what you're up to nowadays louis, i used to watch your vlogs back years ago when you travelled nonstop living nomadically, you were, and still are a big inspiration to me with your positive way of living and the way you live and share your life iv recently got my own electric bike, just a pedal assist but so glad i got it instead of the usual modes most people still unfortunately get, i salute you and everyone who chooses the better option I'll try keep your latest adventure in mind to watch and see how it all goes for you i always wanted to bump into you somehow, i still hope i get that chance someday peace out ✌️ enjoyyyy lifeee and I'll maybe see you somewhere someday dude 💙

Stop grabbing that front brake while turning! If you want to use it, be gentle with it and progressively squeeze it. Grabbing a handful will throw you off 99% of the time, even in a straight line. Progressive braking is key to load up the front tyre.

I’m sure he will love the gift of the bike when it arrives… Broken and scratched to bits! 😅

@dannygahan4718 I have a scooter from that same brand and they have quite big buffers both top and bottom, I dont think this would do any measurable damage to them ​.

Now this feels like old times following @FunForLouis on his adventures. My favorite adventures so far were the India trip with all the guys in tuc-tuc's, The flight around the world and the electric VW Bug across the USA. Loving the new renewable series of adventures. Are there any viable electric ultralight planes for the next big adventure?

Love this! The constant theme I’m noticing with this video: “I’m good I’m good I got this! “ 10 minutes later: “ok, I don’t know where I am” 😂😂😂

@funforluis Hello from Trujillo Perú. Walker mode on Google Maps shows altitude. Lifting 1kg 1m takes 9.8 Joules of energy. 1wh=3600j It's very important to calculate energy consumption. Going up hill 10k can use as much battery as riding 50k on the flat. Reduce your centre of gravity. Put your extra battery between your legs, not on the back of your scooter.

Ay! Louis! Always making me stressed with you and your electric vehicles range ! I admire you for being so adventurous and a amazing independent family human!

Louis- you're so lovely! You didn't even mention your hernia to those guys when you were struggling with the bike 💕💕

I love the van across America series. I'll be following this as well. I'm happy the audio is really good and you are exclaiming over the scenery! Well done!

Be safe brother, lifting and pushing that moto after a double hernia is nothing to mess with. Nonetheless have fun and ride easy! Safe travels 🖤

I’m so psyched to watch this series. Good on you Louis. You are still always enjoying life and living the adventure. Boom!

I wasn’t overly excited by the title but Louis you’re always so relaxing to watch and enjoyable. Good luck with your trip

Great to see you on another adventure. Every time you hit a bump or had to lift the bike I was so concerned about your double hernia and it ended up being your back that caused an issue. Stay safe and have fun. Love watching you!

Excited for this series! Love your content Louis.

Lifting that bike up after surgery 2 weeks ago you are crazy

That is a good bike. Have it for 9 years and it’s still going strong.

Could feel the good vibes when you hit those villages - it’s fun sitting with you on the trip!

This just randomly popped up on my feed and now I'm totally invested in this trip!

I loved this video! It is so similar to your ride across the U.S. in your electric VW bus. I love these types of situations you get yourself into! You are a unique person, Louis Cole! Can't wait to see more of this solar-powered moped trip!

Great trip Louis! I've had e-bikes for about 3 years now and watching attempts like this is really interesting mate! Noice one bruddr!

Louis you might not feel amazing, but you look amazing you mighty thing, you've GOT THIS! 🙌

I think when you dropped it at the ferry, I would of just left it there and walked home, that was so hard to watch 🤣🤣 I bet the other bikers haven't stopped telling that story to everyone they meet. To pick a bike up, push your bum into the seat, gran the handle bar and back of the bike with your other hand and push up and stand up with it.

Fun video. Reminds me of the EV Van videos lol. A bit of anxiety but lot of fun to watch!

I always thoroughly enjoy a Louis road trip!

I guess you'll make sure that your solar panels are out 10am-3pm every day then ride after 3pm to deplete the battery, just to maximise solar? No idea on best mapping sorry. EDIT - should have waited, you answered a few mins later - 5pm set off.

👌🏼 yes louis cool video and bike

To register that in Italy, he's going to pay most of its value in fees and taxes.

This is soo awesome! I got the same moped but the older version. You gave me an idea😂 Also I made a video about a balcony solar setup!❤

Always with the best adventures

Hi Louis, I use calimoto for road riding on a motorbike. Avoids motorways and you can customise your route. Well done for taking on this challenge a great way to travel and explore 🙏👍🏍️

I just love these challenges 😊

Mate I know it’s rotten of me but I literally laughed each time you dropped it. I’m only 7 mins in and gonna watch all episodes. Looks like I’m a local neighbour to you too! 👀

Really good audio! I‘m amazed

Best wishes to you on your continued journey, Louis!!! Your adventures are always so much fun!!!

Epic road trip, the challenge, adventure, people you meet, memories that last for a lifetime, food, and scenery should make this worthwhile.

i came back after 5 year! for watching your video ! very interesting !

Please be safe out there Louis!! You have a wife and son at home who need you!! 🛵🛵🛵

Solar for the trusty steed and caffeine for trusty Louis hahaha XD

What an adventure ,so nice to see ,you get the essence ,of biking (even if it is electric) You are in the environment ,huge difference ,to driving .

Really cool Louis 😊😎 Just take Care & do not expose yourself. We will be following this amazing experience 😊😎 have fun.

Doesn't Google Maps let you choose the route? I take out all highways' and tollways. I don't think it takes out hills. lol back to the battery countdown!

What are you doing dude, You cannot drive abroad using a provisional licence. You are NOT insured on L plates abroad.

@fetchstixRHD

10 күн бұрын

It may be that the L plates are just from the fact that he bought it with them, and that he has a full licence that covers the scooter*, to be fair... (* not "moped", as its top speed is higher than 45km/h [28mile/h] - there was a point I would have made that France seems to have a rule that allows you to "ride" the 45km/h Citoren Ami's without a licence and at an age of 14, but irrelevant...)

Another shout for Komoot for planning your route. Glad you worked out that putting it on the centre stand whilst stood next to it is the way forward. Lastly if you drop it again face away from the bike and use your legs to lift it up a little at a time is much easier.

Classic Louis adventure!! 😅

GPS, try Wayz, if you use bicycle guidance, you may save on steep elevations. Good luck. Pack small snacks like mini burgers.

I was surprised to see you didn't have exacting clothing plans. And then I remembered who I was watching and what I seen you do. Louis, you'll be just grand 😁

“Yes I could it’s just like walking” 😂😂😂😂😂

You’re the best!

As you have L plates I take it that you are riding with a A1 or ‘CBT’ licence, what were the issues/regulations about riding with L plates in the eu?

@PuRpLeIzLeGiTx

27 күн бұрын

If on a cbt, he shouldnt be riding, he would not be insured. If he has an a1, he would be fine to ride. But seeing as he didnt even know how to put on the centre stand, i would assume this is being done illegally

Don't worry about dropping the bike in front of those guys :D There's two kinds of bikers: those that have dropped their bikes and those that haven't YET dropped their bikes :D And bikers tend to be chill and can give you good advice and a hand in getting the bike upright again.

OG Ending 👊❤

Use brouter for planning and locus maps for navigation with the file you created in brouter. There's plenty of vehicle parameters to choose from, even velomobiles have several depending on your gusto.

cool! my names Neo too ! nice to see more Neos : D

i used to watch your vlogs a lot since your single era. Your dad is still looking the same! cant believe louis still has that hair haha. I guess im back to watching your vlogs!

Louis, you need to lift the bike using your back ! have a look online with a guy showing how easy it is to lift a Harley using a reverse technique !

This is amazing, brave to try this new tech voyage. Interesting to see results. Those NIU bikes are amazing. It's a pity there are public facilities to charge them at motorbike bays.

Why not during the night and charge by day? Or charge during the hours that are most sunny? Is there a way to charge the bikebattery from the spare while driving?

I love these videos. You could try attaching a solar panel to the back of your bike to charge your extra battery.
