No matter what new activity you start, it takes a long time to build up strength and endurance alongside the technical skill. You were right to cut the trip short!

Itchy boots down.... Martha down.... What a day!

Thank you 🥹

Martha. Your doing really well . We all take tumbles and it does knock your confidence and being tired doesn't help . I'm exactly the same and as I've said before. I'm 54 years old and I started greenlaning when I was 17 years old . You have nothing to prove take it steady and don't be worried if you have to say . I need to stop greenlaning today and rest . Its not failure. Its knowing your limits. Take care mate

Nice relationship you've got though, really supportive, both ways. Good to see.

Martha, please don't push yourself as hard as you are. Mitch is a great rider, but he wasn't 2 months after he started riding. As with everything in life, you have to learn to walk before you can run. Some off road riding is fine, but what you two are doing would tax a lot of experienced riders and ALL new riders. Going for 100 greuling miles per day is 5 times more than what Martha should be doing with such little experience. I hope you reel it in and develope your skills at a slower pace so that you develope the confidence you'll need instead of anxiety, a fear of riding, and possible serious injury. Love you guys, love your channel, but hope you'll rethink your pace. ❤Lauren

Martha " i wanna take in the views but also like have to look where i'm going''.....''Oh look, bunny rabbit''🐰🐇🤣🤣. You pair are the best😂❤

Looks really difficult but well done! You could try switching between an offroad day and onroad day to keep your energy up!

That is way to hard of trails to be on that new to the sport. Besides the skill required, it takes time to build the muscle and endurance to pound over roacks like that. I would have been shocked if you weren't crashing. Rocky trails are hard, much less steep rocky ones. Add in exhaustion...

Being knackered never helps even for the most experienced bikers. You're doing really well, Martha. With time you'll learn to look much further ahead when you're riding and not so much just in front of you or at your front wheel. Excellent videos again guys.

Hi guys well done lifes is a Challenge memories not just dreams make your life a adventure. Just send it . Yes the clutch is your friend . Ro

9:44 Martha's doing really well ,it will do her good to attempt the hard stuff , 👍

I am a life long motorcyclist, ex motorcycle instructor, lots of Trackday training, off road school etc etc. Mate, she's only just passed her test and you are pushing her way too hard, a lot of experienced riders would struggle with what you're putting her through. You can hear the way she is breathing....Holding your breath through fear, then almost hyperventilating after with relief that you survived is not good or an enjoyable way to learn. You'r gonna put her off bikes for life...

Well done Martha. You are getting more better can hear the difference in the clutch ect. It's just going to come down to building more time on some trails and learn along the way. What works and doesn't for you every rider styles are completely different. You will get there. Like the old saying if you fall off that horse get right back on it. Massive difference from when you first started try using your back brake more on the downhills to keep your front loose to move about and keep a semi loose grip on the handlebars so you don't fatigue your arms grip the bike with the legs you'll get there and he's there every step of the way. Keep fucking smashing them trails

You don't have to eat rubbish just because youre on bikes lol. Have you seen Austin Vince going round the world a few times? Mondo Enduro and Terra Circa? Dated now but that's what got me in to bikes.... brilliant and well worth viewing... might give you some inspiration:)

You two are tough. May the gods ride with you.

Dam, I hope you recover well after them falls. You did right calling it and coming off the traisl to easier rides. Agreed too much can be had. Also what was this noise in the vid at 27:57

29:45 well done guys ,keep it up ye , take care 👋🤠👍

I get days like that, had one the other day, some of which is recorded in my recent upload, also locked myself out the house too 😂, had to wait for the missus coming home, so don't knock yourself for it Martha, everyone has days like it, however keep an eye on those wrists, could easily be a fractured scaphoid, happened to me a couple of year ago, took a day or two till I knew something wasn't right and then went to hospital, btw I'm still learning off road and it ain't easy, so good on ya for doing it so soon after passing your test, keep the videos coming both of you, looking forward to the next one 👍 .....I just want to say something about the other comments, no one is getting pushed too hard in these videos, Mitch has offered to stop on a few occasions now & asking if she is okay, I'm pretty sure Martha would say enough is enough if she wanted to, they did go off track eventually, so saying Mitch is controlling is bang out of order, Martha can speak & decide for herself if she felt pressured, I don't see it in these videos, however it's the usual on social media, someone has to bring up some rubbish about something over nothing, Martha, Mitch keep doing what your doing 👍

Very true! We need to get a good rotation of some staple meals when travelling on the bikes. Hopefully with the luggage we can pack more and have proper meals

That's a lot of riding for someone who is still learning basic skills. Might be worth backing off the trail riding just for a little while until Martha gets more comfortable with the basics. Too much too soon might spoil it all for her. Great video though, again :)

Great video again. Be conscious when choosing gear at the start of steep descents. Ride Safe 😋🇳🇴

Well done to you both, been there Martha, dropping the bike lots and losing confidence, you did well not to push it too much. I bet if you were to do the same trail in a months time you'd smash it because you know what you are up against, I always try and chill for 5 minures once I've had an off, calm down then restart.... shorter off road riding times helps also... peanut butter and honey wraps.... i shouldnt knock it I suppose 😂 rest up and continue, very enjoyable.

Tiredness makes a transfer of strain from the bike onto yourself. Martha will probably do that trail again and wonder what all the difficulty was about. This trip was probably too much at this point. A 3 hour ride for one day only is plenty at this stage. I agree that the clutch issue is only a confidence issue whereby Martha needs to leave the clutch disengaged and allow the bottom end torque to do the work and to maintain momentum. That will come in time.

love you guys ..but these are not easy trails,,,,even for an expert,,,,

some of those trails are a little difficult. might want to let her get used to easier trails first cause after awhile it's not going to be fun for her and then she'll lose interest

why off road all the time. ?.would it be much more pleasant to see the country on touring bikes or is their a reason that i don't know about , i get exhausted just watching these videos !!

I think you’re doing really well, Martha. I just don’t like it when you come off. I just think you’re really gonna hurt yourself. It worries me a bit. I don’t know if you watch itchy Boots but her latest video she’s come off and she’s somewhere by Africa she’s on her own and she thinks she’s broke a collarbone. She has sent a text to her friend for her friend to message someone and try and get help to her , but where she is it’s so remote she could be there for hours or days at least you’re lucky you’ve got Mitch who’s really good to you?👍😘

She doesn't want to let Mitch down. My concern is she may have a dreadful accident before she becomes a confident rider. The trails they are riding are not for training. Martha should be with a qualified instructor until she is ahead of the bike.
