  • 154 riders entered Sandraiders 2024 to experience riding on 1400km of tracks used in the legendary Paris-Dakar race during the eighties and nineties.
    I entered on a Yamaha TT600 Desert racer alongside my son Charlie, on his Honda XR600R this year and in this video you get see what happens as we scramble through some of the greatest scenery Morocco has to offer over the 7-days the Sandraiders event runs for. Dunes, dust lakes, rocky passes, they're all here!

    Great stuff Harry and thanks for the Reuben plug had 6 more donations this evening. shot all my videos in slow motion so think they are all useless I fear. Taking the positives from this I will have to go next year now. Thanks ever so much again. Mick

    • @veemacks7255
      @veemacks7255 Před 21 dnem +3

      They shouldn't "be useless". You can convert them to 25/30/50/60 fps. I often receive things at 60fps and convert them to 30fps and they don't run at half speed and the audio sounds normal.

    I thought it was a 52 minute video, but it only lasted 5 !
    Such was my total absorption into the action, scenery and whole adventure. Wonderful. 🥰
    I felt so involved. The helmet cam and mic experience was like riding with you, as a non biker, and technically spot on.
    The behind the scene's stories were so important to the whole event and just added to our enjoyment.
    Thank you and Charlie so much for sharing it with us. 👏

    Well Harry, that was an absolutely fantastic video! How blessed you are to enjoy such a wonderful adventure with your son….and Charlie, you are blessed with an amazing man as both father and friend. You guys nailed this trip and I hope I can speak for every viewer when I say a massive thank you for taking us along for the ride (pun intended). Truly fantastic viewing, felt like I was actually there with you. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! Bravo boys👏👍

    Every year, I watch this and I have to stop myself from buying a bike and joining everyone on Sand Raiders the following year. I'm just grateful i don't even have my CBT or it might be all but impossible not to. Thanks for a cracking journey Harry and Charlie (and John) it really is a real highlight of the year seeing these trips. All the best!

    @KevZJ Před 21 dnem +6

    I'm not into biking at all. But Harry has a way of making you interested in anything he puts on CZcams. Just like farming couldn't be further from (what I thought) my interests were, I never miss an episode of Harry's farm. The basic honesty and joy of dealing With either hobbies as in this case or duties as in the farm that Harry is able to project is completely addicting. Thank you so much!

    Fantastic! I saved this one for nice Sunday afternoon, and now I'm sad it's over. I think this is the best coverage of Sandraiders yet, but 50mins just flew by. Would have loved to have seen even more of the country, the towns and people. But what was in this 50mins was just great. Thanks so much for taking us along for the ride again Harry and looking forward to Tunisia!

    I do have several years of mx, enduro (lots of sandriding) and
    supermoto under my belt. So Im still temped to conquer with the big pig.

    What a great adventure to share with your son. He's a great guy, going along with you on some of your more extreme outings.Wow! Also, he drives the combine on the farm late into the night, lights on, food on the run, oblivious to the time of day. You two are remarkable. Play hard, work hard. The acorn does not fall far from the tree. We should all be so lucky as to be raised by a father like you. Also, his knowledge of cars is very impressive and more extensive than expected and much more comprehensive than my own (and I am 64!). Class acts, father and son! Keep up the great videos, please. What, maybe Charlie's Garage? I wonder what cars he has in his collection so far.
