    You are right there, New Zealand just keeps delivery. So many roads and tracks, I have barely scratched the surface, there are a lot more fun challenging single racks that would be perfect for a light weight off road bike. If you can get to New Zealand it is definitely worth the effort

    Another great series Joe 👍 I guess I will have to start watching the NZ ones next ... 😂 BTW have you looked at the new model yet, I guess the extra horses would be nice but what you do with the 411 is probably all you need. There was only that one hill that you couldn't get up with all the gear on. And the big single sounds good. Bonus, at least you can carry an extra 10 lts of fuel, I don't think you can on the newer model. Happy travels and keep up the good videos ... Stay safe.

    Thanks mate, it's always good to hear you enjoyed the episode, I bought my bike second hand as that's all I could stretch the funds, so it may takes some time before there is a second hand market for the 450, it does look like a more capable bike, but I have not ridden one.

    Question: When you camp out, where do you go to do your "morning business" (for the lack of a better term). I would hate to go in the wilderness... That's my biggest issue with camping.

  • @freewayproject
    @freewayproject7 сағат бұрын

    If you do enough of these trips for long periods of time, it is inevitable, that's why in the Australia series I have a little shovel to dig a hole. But in New Zealand I didn't have to, there are a few things that can help. Firstly you need to treat it like filling up your bike with fuel, taking opportunities when they arise, there are some camping sites that have toilets, gas station, shops etc.. Secondly if you have watch any of the series, I don't eat a lot while traveling on the road, I may only have one small meal a day, like a tin of tuna and a piece of fruit, and only drinking water, this stop the need to find a toilet in the first place, so you may not need to find one for several days and normally with in that time you come across them if you are constantly riding everyday. As a bonus for me I normally lose weight on these trips so it's a win win.

    It's not the police but the Australian Border Force. It to do with farming and stopping the spread of things like fruit flies and other stuff getting into Western Australia, the same happens into Tasmania and well if you fly into Australia they are there as well to try and stop pest and disease getting into the agriculture sector.

  • @freewayproject
    @freewayproject10 сағат бұрын

    The sign with a silhouette image of a small person then a large person is a caution sign that there could be people and children crossing the road ahead. There were a few tight turns ahead and treelined, there might have been a camping site on the left and the lake on the right so common for people to cross the road on foot.
