😎 Awesome, thanks! We're going to be putting the episodes on the channel each Sunday now, so not long to wait really...
OMG am l that laid back, brilliant stuff, don't forget when you're ready for Salisbury plain, just say

YEEEEES - i hope that the vid came out soon. Great entertainment for me. Many Thank`s for share! Cheers Alfred
Great, hope you enjoy it man 👊🏻😎
@@lightweightadv I do! I like your honest style - it`s much more for me as a "great big YT ADV Chanel" because i like the "normal" folks they do this stuff. You do very well.
You may both enjoy that adventure on the small trusty goat’s , hope that you have lot’s of great time
Thanks for the support Kim, it was a great adventure, made all the better by our great little bikes 😎👌🏻

I've said it before chaps, but you're film making is getting more and more awesome with every thing you make and I cannot wait for the rest of this series, thank you!
Cheers Carl, that means a lot. We're so excited to release the rest already! 👊🏻😎
I thought that, it was so good to see the two of them documenting their own ways. I have never met two virgins to the slaughter before, and can't wait for the outcome. Brilliant filming and they have totally done it the correct way for success. It was cold that night, a few degrees less with that Cider inside. Just so good to see 2 guys two Honda 250 rally bikes on their way you one of many l am sure, yes adventures.
A great opening episode look forward to the rest!
Thanks Jonny, it's on its way 👍

Thanks Garth, it was a lot of fun, that's for sure 😎
Just came across your channel, subbed, good job lads! Looking forward to the rest of this adventure and back vids 🤙
Great stuff, hope you enjoy it buddy, welcome to the party 👍
This is a great watch guys. Looking forwards to the bigger adventure episodes. Tuned in and eagerly waiting the next episode👍
Nice one Lee, glad you enjoyed it mate 😎👍🏻
Great vid..looking forward to the next one 👍👍
Thanks 😎, there's more to come yet!
Great video guys and looking forward to the next one….4000 miles on my 250 Rally now and you are showcasing the capabiliies of this fantastic motorcycle !
Thanks 😎👍🏻. 4000 miles is great going. Ours have 10k on after the trip, not a single issue 👌🏻
This is really great stuff guys. Keep after it. Looking forward to my next 250 rally trip even more now.
Fantastic comment dream machine thanks, where you headed?
That campsite first night just north of Le Mans is in ‘Sees’ I believe. Stayed there many times on way back from south west of France where we travel a lot. Great content guys, only found you recently and can’t get enough. Bought a Honda XR400R recently and have plans to travel the TET north Spain
Very cool, welcome to the channel 👍🏻. We've got a lot more travel content coming up this year 😎
Been eagerly awaiting for this series, looking good, gentlemen! Very well done. I've just come back from a nights moto camping ( trial run) at my mum and dad's house lol, as I've got older I'm yearning once again for adventure, done wild camping, hiking, biking and I've even booked an off road course so I'll be less shit at that hopefully. People such as yourselves inspire many to get on and do stuff Thank you.
Hey Stephen, good on ya mate, a night out is a night out! Off road training is cash well spent, even with a couple of years experience now, Jamie and I still think about booking an off road course. Thanks for the support, ride safe 😎
Got to say that was a great video. Candid comentários really makes it pop. I picture myself there. Wm. In Vancouver... C U over there in October.
Thanks 😎, we're really pleased you're enjoying it. Are you coming to UK in Oct?
@@lightweightadv actually Portugal. Looking to see if Algarve Portugal or S. Spain is best for retired sports, outdoors, lifestyle. 😊
very enjoyable - this is a down-to-earth video - of what an average-joe can do! Yes enjoyable - yes an adventure - especially as most people only commute to work or ride at weekends - so this is inspiring as anyone can have "an adventure" - looking forward to the next episode!
Thanks Christopher, that's great to hear as that's exactly what we want to show people. Anyone can do this, so get out of the there and enjoy it!
Good old Steve, who makes the best bread/pies in Andover and a bloody good trail rider
Haha, so it transpires! We just bumped into him unaware of his skills 😅
Enjoy lads keep grinning and filming
You two are great to watch, would love a ride out with you guys!!
Awesome, thanks. We will be riding out lots next year 👌🏻
I've just started working towards a motorcycle license, and found your channel while looking at reviews for the Honday 250s. Easy subscribe. I'll be following this with great interest!
Hey Luke, great to have you along for the ride. The CRF is an incredible little machine. Our latest series is hopefully showing everyone exactly what its capable of 👊🏻😎
Nice flick lads . Do we all do adventurous things on our bikes regularly but only go on true adventures now n then??
Hmm, that's a really good point! We never looked at it that way 🤔
@@lightweightadvit makes a good conversation that I am sure of .
👌🏼 can you release the next one tomorrow please 😁
🤣 Only 6 short days to wait...
Great video looking forward to the next episode. How many miles do you guys have on the 250s now?
Every Sunday now Donny 👊🏻😎. The rally has just over 10500 now and the L is just over 9k...going strong 👍🏻
Seach? for the sand 😆 0:23
Dammit! 😅 Can you please stop noticing details?!
@@lightweightadv great Vids. Must take ages to edit. Loving the channel.
Yeah man, ain't that the truth 🤷🏻♂️. Thanks dude
just found your channel and it like watch me n mate Chris only difference he has working cocker sat on the back in a box, they you don't know till u try it and we are shite in the lanes lol
Hey, as you are enjoying it, the dog on the back sounds crackers 😂
If you are in the UK we also do a festival that you might like, all the details are on our website if you wanted to check em out. Either way safe trails mate 👍
@@lightweightadv which event is that, we use to put a couple of small events through ABR and did a few of theirs but the main one is just to big now
It's our own festival mate. Www.lightweightadventurers.co.uk
Glad you've started this series - been looking forward to it.
BTW. I don't suppose I saw the two of you pulling into the Beaconsfield Services, just off the M40 in South Bucks a couple of days ago, did I?
Bit of a long shot, but you don't often see two blokes on CRFs all loaded up.
Glad we can finally start bringing it to you 😎. Unfortunately not, we've not been over that way recently. Makes me jealous that someone else it out on their adventures though
@@lightweightadv Me too. I'm off to Albania in July on my Himalayan, so my adventure is still to come.
Ah, so cool! Albania sounds great 😁
Great video guys. How did you get on with the panniers? Did they survive ok?
Hi D C, the bags did great! I think I'm going to make a stand alone video about them as they impressed us throughout 👍🏻
@@lightweightadv good to know as they seem a bargain compared to some others. Cheers.
Talking about chains, how much slack do you guys adjust in yours? When I set mine to say 30mm and sit on the bike the chain is like a bloody banjo string !!
Hey Ian, I adjust mine (Marc), so that with my weight on the bike, I have around an inch of movement. There isn't a lot of difference in back wheel movement between 30mm or chain play without weight vs with weight, so I always adjust with weight. Does that help? 😎👍🏻
Yeah kinda, I think a lot of people adjust there chain with weight but the manual says just on the side stand? I’ve been adjusting mine to 40-45 mm on the side stand and it still feels a bit tight when I’m on it. I also get some chain like chatting when hit really rocky sections at speed not sure if this is normal? Anyway thanks for the reply 👍
On the negative side sorry to say I can't find episode 2 ..the episodes order are all mixed up. How to find E2? 😬 Oops found it at end of 1st video
Haha, I hope youve found it! We have a whole playlist with them all in if you're struggling 🙂
Great down to earth video about 2 mates on an adventure. Gotta say the double adverts every 3 minutes made it bloody annoying to watch
Hey Malcolm thanks for the support, yes, we were surprised by that ourselves actually, I don't know why they have all of a sudden put more adverts in 🤷🏻♂️ we felt the same tbh when we watched it back. Will have to see if there's anything we can sort 👍
