Journey well begun 😁 I will recommend you one think. As Lavi jumps on the bike make Her step onto the foot peg and swing Her leg over. As long as Her weight is on top of the bike there are very small weight distribution outside the bike. The way She gets on and off now you risk to drop the bike if She loses Her balance. Just a friendly advice from Denmark 🤗. I'm so much looking forward to follow you on your journey.
I wanted to say the same thing. Have Lavi step on the foot peg, grabbing your shoulders, and then swing her leg over. If you make it to Thailand, drop me a line. Northern Thailand is an adventure Mecca of sorts. Enjoy
Actually Ollie you can do the same when mounting. Just leave it on the side stand and use your peg as a ladder 😉 We older guys need the ladder to get on top of those tall bikes 😜
Week one almost over it was a pleasure to ride the first day with you. Maybe I can join you again for a ride near to the end. I will be supporting you all the way safe Journey Lavi & Ollie.
@@LaviandOllie You have a good few miles to get behind you before thinking about the finishing escort but thanks for the invite I'm sure more will be joining you. Depending on circumstances I may even join you somewhere in europe If that would be possible.
Been fallowing you on the strom Facebook pages and now I found this! Super stoked to keep in touch and watch y’all! Me and my wife take off June 1 for 30 days around the USA.
Hi Lavi and Ollie Well I've just discovered you and am really excited to follow your epic journey around the world. I know you are now on day four hundred and something but i wont fast forward i promise. I think what you both are about to do is totally amazing and i wish you all the luck and fun times ahead. Kindest regards Beans.
Gonna have to visit the Ace cafe one day. Prob an hr or so from me (but am still learning)! Chilterns not far from me...some nice riding near Henley on Thames etc and down through Berkshire. (Traffic though in London ugh).
@@LaviandOllie Ha might just do that. Dont think I'll be riding down to Spain etc this year. A bridge too far, the joys of DAS...new bike...insurance...etc... P.s Wales and the 125 thats a tempter. Make sure you get some "calamares a la Romana" somewhere coastal best. And a fav of mine is "cochinillo asado". After a hot ride n a cold beer...🤞
Great to meet you both, be good to get you on our live stream to update us where you are and how its going we are live every friday night at 8pm Ride safe both of you
Every Friday! Good to know! Sorry we couldn't make it on last night, we will aim for next week or the week after once we have some miles under our belt! 😁🙏
No community is as friendly and helpful as the biker community. Gotta love the bikers for their passion and also encouraging their fellow riders ❤ such wholesome scenes at that cafe
Congratulations to see this come to fruition for you both. All the best, great luck and safe travels. Following you from Malaysia. Cheers and rubber side down always...
I have decided to try and watch a episode every morning while having my breakfast because tv morning news is depressing and you pair set me up for the day.👍Manxman 🇮🇲
Awesome! The very best of luck in your travels, ride safe. I look forward to following you around The Globe, couldn't have had a better start than good old bangers and mash😀😂😅
Good luck on your journey from Newfoundland, Canada. Got to eat at the Ace in 2007 so that was fun seeing it again. Looking forward to following your adventures.
Awesome kick off for your journey ATW !!! Glad I found your channel at the beginning of this monumental journey. I wish you both all the success and great health along the way. You currently have 7.86K subscribers. So, it will be fun to ride along here on YT and watch you two conquer the world on 2 wheels, 2 up and watch your channel grow as well. Stay safe Lavi & Ollie 🤙
Another great one guys, I seem to be watching these in the wrong order, but hey ho, plenty of time to catch up!, the bike community is just excellent, you will have plenty of people cheering you on, myself included, onwards and upwards
Just double check the episode and the season we have made all the preparation season 0 and Europe season 1, North Africa season 2 etc if you head to our channel page it should be clear then you can watch all through from the beginning to the end in order! 😁🤪 Thanks for watching!
Hello you two, I just came across one of your videos liked what i was watching so decided to subscribe and catch up,my wife rides pillion and struggled to get on the bike with me already sat on it so now she gets on first and slides back.Ride safe and all the best.
Once in a lifetime trip for sure. You guys will have stories to tell your kids and friends for years. Live life to the fullest and thank the Lord for everything.....every single morning. Be safe and have fun. I'm going to sub and watch your progress.
I came into your program once you entered South america. You didn't have a video today that was up to date, so I went back to watch the very first video of your trip. It was so fun to see you guys starting out knowing what I know now. I can't wait to catch up on the full series.
Great first video guys. Could I also make a suggestion that it might be easier for Lavi by placing her foot on the foot peg first and then standing to get on the pillion seat. I'm short (5'2") and this was the only way I could get on. It just might be easier especially after riding for a few days. Much love to you both x x x
Looks like a fun start! What were the issues/fixes you encountered with the bike, and what were the circumstances involved with the bike drops, and was there any damage? What news do you have about your gear? Those are interesting details. Even day-to-day adjustments are interesting! Don’t hold back! :)
Have you checked out our other videos where we did some off road practise? You can see two of them there 😂 Damage wise we broke off the clutch lever (now replaced) and cracked the foot pedal bracket which we have a spare in case it gets worse. We will do a gear video soon and go through everything then 😁🙏
@@LaviandOllie Ok. That's too far away for now, so I hope to see you on your return trip through Europe :-). Looking forward for next video. Stay safe.
Congrats on getting the trip underway! What a great feeling that must have been! I've been around the world (by plane though) on a 6 month trip, so I can sort of relate to your excitement at being on the road. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next!
Europe looks beautiful but the same. You can see the difference in visiting Morocco. You are welcome IFRAN .WARZAZAT . A9CHOUR TIZNIT. DAKHLA MARAKECH CHEFCHAOUN ........
You guys must have been really nervous on your first day of travelling around the world? I would have been nervous as hell thinking of all that could go wrong lol
That is a dream of mine. Although i guess i'd prefer a car. 200km a day is more than enough for me and only on weekends. If i "had to" ride every day i would be busted in 3 days.
Kkk "mashed potatoes" I watched your whole adenture crossing the England by bicycle, and your everyday food was...:"mashed potatoes". You guys couldn't close this first day better: Mashed potatoes!

AWESOME! Welcome to the channel ❤️
Awesome start. Bike love. I'm watching you from Kenya 🇰🇪 and hope you'll pass by some day.
That's amazing! Thanks so much for watching! Hopefully we can visit you one day in Kenya! We wish you all the best 😁🙏
I'm a bit late but I only started to see your adventure this month. May, 2023. So I hope to catch up.....

Thanks for the advice, we will try it! We have a lot of things still to practise :)

@@LaviandOllie I agree with Bomic. Mount it like a horse Lavi. Much easier.
Actually Ollie you can do the same when mounting. Just leave it on the side stand and use your peg as a ladder 😉 We older guys need the ladder to get on top of those tall bikes 😜
I was about to write the same thing!
Wow have a great journey. That haircut has took years off you stay save and take it all in.
Hahah thanks Neil that's good to hear positive feedback about it, sure makes life easier on the road :)
Week one almost over it was a pleasure to ride the first day with you. Maybe I can join you again for a ride near to the end. I will be supporting you all the way safe Journey Lavi & Ollie.
Yes please do, escort us back into London, would be great 😁🙏
@@LaviandOllie You have a good few miles to get behind you before thinking about the finishing escort but thanks for the invite I'm sure more will be joining you. Depending on circumstances I may even join you somewhere in europe If that would be possible.
This is my dream adventure :)
❤️❤️❤️
Gona get stuck into these videos over today and the w.e

Been fallowing you on the strom Facebook pages and now I found this! Super stoked to keep in touch and watch y’all! Me and my wife take off June 1 for 30 days around the USA.
Once the kids are older I told my wife we are going to do the same. Im definitely jealous, enjoy the journey :)
Glad to hear it 😁🙏 We can't wait to get to the US!
Great plan! 😁🙏
Hi Lavi and Ollie
Well I've just discovered you and am really excited to follow your epic journey around the world. I know you are now on day four hundred and something but i wont fast forward i promise. I think what you both are about to do is totally amazing and i wish you all the luck and fun times ahead.

Welcome to the channel! Haha okay, we’re hoping you’ll enjoy the series 🥳🫶
Gonna have to visit the Ace cafe one day. Prob an hr or so from me (but am still learning)! Chilterns not far from me...some nice riding near Henley on Thames etc and down through Berkshire. (Traffic though in London ugh).
Yes the Ace is slightly too far into the centre! You can join us there at the Ace when we return 😁🙏
@@LaviandOllie Ha might just do that. Dont think I'll be riding down to Spain etc this year. A bridge too far, the joys of DAS...new bike...insurance...etc...
P.s Wales and the 125 thats a tempter. Make sure you get some "calamares a la Romana" somewhere coastal best. And a fav of mine is "cochinillo asado". After a hot ride n a cold beer...🤞
So fun to see you guys head out! May you find safe travels, loads of adventure, and a lifetime of memories...

Good luck on your journey from Newfoundland, Canada. Got to eat at the Ace in 2007 so that was fun seeing it again. Looking forward to following your adventures.
Thanks so much 😁🙏 I bet it hasn't changed much since then actually! It was great to go there for lunch and officially start our journey there!
Awesome kick off for your journey ATW !!!

All the best Lavi and Ollie! Not sure of your route but if you are ever in Queensland drop us a note.
We have lived in Queensland before! Love it there, but sadly I don't think we'll be passing through on this one, maybe the next one 😉
Love your first episode!! ❤️
You're too kind 😁🙏
And you are featured in it!
I came into your program once you entered South america. You didn't have a video today that was up to date, so I went back to watch the very first video of your trip. It was so fun to see you guys starting out knowing what I know now. I can't wait to catch up on the full series.

@@LaviandOllie and it was great !!!!
Bon Voyage!!! Send us lots of vlogs...STAY SAFE!!!!!!!
We will be vlogging every day of the ride! (I hope) 😁🙏
Keep the rubber down and stay free
Not great at keeping the rubber side down it seems! 😂
Parabéns. Estou a adorar a vossa aventura.
Thank you 😍
Bon voyage, from southern California. Stop bye for a Beer🤘🍻🍻
Will do 🤩🤩🤩 thanks so much!
Safe journey guys Love ♥️
Thanks so much 😁🙏
Mark this day , the first day of my new life, after today you will change for a better
Hopefully! 😁🙏 Thanks Glynn!
OMG, you guys look so young... Beautiful
The best for you
Same for you 😍
Great first video guys. Could I also make a suggestion that it might be easier for Lavi by placing her foot on the foot peg first and then standing to get on the pillion seat. I'm short (5'2") and this was the only way I could get on. It just might be easier especially after riding for a few days. Much love to you both x x x
We tried that a few times but it seemed to put a lot of pressure down on that peg and made the bike tip more!
Have a nice trip!!! When you arrive to Mexico you have a friend here....
Awesome to hear it 😁🙏 We will let you know when we get to Mexico!
Obrigado!
😍😍😍
Wow ! , you’ve certainly progressed from your £100 bicycle trip .
😁
Good luck! Are you coming down to Devon and heading to Spain or gong to Dover and crossing there?
We actually just crossed to Dover yesterday! (Still catching up on the editing)
Looks like a fun start! What were the issues/fixes you encountered with the bike, and what were the circumstances involved with the bike drops, and was there any damage? What news do you have about your gear? Those are interesting details. Even day-to-day adjustments are interesting! Don’t hold back! :)
Have you checked out our other videos where we did some off road practise? You can see two of them there 😂 Damage wise we broke off the clutch lever (now replaced) and cracked the foot pedal bracket which we have a spare in case it gets worse. We will do a gear video soon and go through everything then 😁🙏
Awesome 💞👍👌💯 +1sub
Thank you 🤩
Tailwinds!!! I know your not on your bicycles anymore but I think you know what I mean!!!
Our engine is our tailwind 🏍🐝🌎
ok - only picked up your journey half way through - watched every ep since - so now starting from ep1... (i do know how it ends now though!)
AWESOME 🥳
Stay safe and enjoy your adventure 👍. What is your plans for crosing Europe?
Thanks Mirek 😁🙏 We will be heading south into Spain and Portugal before taking the ferry to Morocco!
@@LaviandOllie Ok. That's too far away for now, so I hope to see you on your return trip through Europe :-). Looking forward for next video. Stay safe.
New subscriber here and I’m digging it! Are you on the 650 vstrom? Thank you and looking forward to your journey! Safe travels from San Diego Ca!
Awesome! Welcome to the channel! We hope you enjoy the ride 😍 it’s a 1050xt aka bumblebee 🤩
Does your path come through the Phoenix, Arizona area by chance? I'd love to meet up and ride with you for a bit if so.
Yes it most likely will 😁🙏 I will let you know closer to the time!
yay
🤩🤩🤩
Congrats on getting the trip underway! What a great feeling that must have been!
I've been around the world (by plane though) on a 6 month trip, so I can sort of relate to your excitement at being on the road. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next!
Thank youuuu 😁🙏 We have plenty more episodes to come so stay tuned!
Looking forward to your vlogs in Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Russia...
At the moment Pakistan isn't on our route, maybe the next one! 😁🙏
@@LaviandOllie good luck to both of you, hope to see you in Pakistan on the next one
