      In the USA that is a foreign concept and as a result there are locked gates EVERYWHERE... but at least we get to be right!!?

    Brilliant. Your best so far, your a true ambassador for your country and motorcycling per se. Respect.

    This system works because I suspect the culture of Sweden is one of respect and responsibility. I wish we had that level of respect in America. Once upon a time maybe bit not now..

      @darkiee69 Před 3 lety

      From what I've seen from TAT it could work in the US too in the urban areas. But that's up to the riders.

    Great info, Robert! Here on Vancouver Island & in BC, much like all of Canada, we share your Swedish basic common sense, respectful approach to the outdoors. Our backroad (logging road) networks are also vast (as is the landscape) & we're perhaps even a little more free to roam once in the wilderness. Going off track is not a problem here.
    What we don't have is that fabulous network of shelters you Swedes share. That's incredible !There are some here but Sweden has Canada beat by far with that offering.

    Excellent summary, I linked it to my FB page. Imagine my surprise when I was asked yesterday at one of the shelters why I didn’t ride my bike all the way forward on the hiking path. Because 1) IT IS a hiking path and 2) it’s within a nature reserve! Not all Swedes have that understanding of those very simple rules!

    @MrPepsilon Před 3 lety +3

    The most comprehensive info and advice I have seen about adventure riding here in Sweden. It is not uncommon to pass through very close between a farmers barn and his/hers house so lower your speed, show respect and be polite.

  • @Liberty4Ever
    @Liberty4Ever Před 3 lety +2

    I love the Swedish property use laws, but laws are usually based on prevailing beliefs, so I have a great appreciation for Swedish attitudes of respect and valuing the land to preserve and protect it. I've never been to your lovely country, but I always ADV like a Swede. I also mountain bike, hike, kayak, and camp like a Swede.
    I've been using OsmAnd+ as my navigation app. I love that it downloads Open Street Maps (which include gravel roads and trails) to the tablet/phone and it does all of the route planning on the device so it never communicates with servers. It doesn't spy on me and it works in remote areas where there is no cell coverage.
