Solo Touring crossing the Spanish Desert | Bardenas Reales

What started as an epic solo off-road motorbike adventure quickly became an embarrassing challenge! Join me as I tackle rugged terrain, unpredictable weather, and unexpected falls while riding deep into the wild. With no backup and miles away from the base, I had to crack on (with a little help!)

You can fall a thousand times, but you get up and try again! That is something I can really appreciate in you! Go and conquer the world! ❤ 😊

When it comes to rocks and gravel, it makes a big difference on how much pressure is in your tires. Air them way down and you'll be amazed at how much better it handles. For example, for my usual load on my Yamaha TW200 it calls for 22psi front and 25psi rear, but on dirt I like 13psi front and 18psi rear. Lower might be even better.

You go girl!!!
As you know, we ALL fall off.
Nothing broken, so all good hey.
Great scenery, and who doesn't love talking to
Until next time, njoy the ride.😊

It is amazing how the tracks you are riding is so similar to the terrain I ride here in Washington, , I really enjoy this off road version of Saffy! That move of buying your van to travel in with your motorcycles is the best move you have made in the 3 years or so of me watching your videos.. I am excited for you and all your future adventures 😊

Seems the Trolls are playing out tonight. Why? does sitting in their dark rooms doing nothing and abusing people who go out in the sun give them pleasure? Life is for living, not wasting! Go out challenge yourself to do something that frightens you. That's why I admire what Saffy does

[grast]

Relax, enjoy the ride and it will all come together 😊

This is some of your best content yet Saff! Every metre, every fall every turn of the wheel your experience is growing along with your confidence. Thanks for taking us on these journeys with you. Really good to see you have the right protective gear for that exercise. Love the adaptation of the ‘Bad Boys’ theme tune😂. Stay in the saddle Saff.

[markchristianson]

OMG what are the odds running into him Saffy . You have been doing great keep on rolling Saffy !!!!

[DirtbikeXpeditions]

It is not the falling that defines us, it is in the getting back up!

[ewetho]

Go Saffy Go!!! You continuously learning and pushing yourself and having a grand time doing it while managing to entertain the rest of us…. Well that is definitely almost entirely your fault!!! And you should be very proud of yourself. Motorcycling and Poetry!!! You are someone’s dream girl.

[BiéreSaint-Pub]

Meeting the pro in such a way is really something only a Saffy way of life makes possible. I'm always admiring how smart and sensitive you are. That's what is making your videos so extraordinary.

I’ve been stuck at exact the same spot with my 1200 but going upwards 😂 after that i decided it was time for a lighter bike

[solodad]

You are improving. This is why learning to ride on dirt is always best.

Risk assessment and mitigation is a big part of living a life filled with adversity and adventure. Getting too comfortable with taking risks can be just as dangerous as not taking any risks. Like all things in life you have to strike a balance and there is nothing wrong with being cautious, that just means you recognize your limits and your willing to toe that line and maybe inch across it. That’s how we grow.

Most people have no idea what they are really capable of, toeing that line sets a person miles ahead of everyone else no matter where that line lies.

Remember to laugh at yourself, otherwise you miss all the best jokes. Besides, getting mad or being embarrassed doesn’t help you. But laughing always helps by reducing stress.

I lift my visor to you Staffy, well done! 😊👍...

[Skiamakhos]

Had me going with that Facebook post about it all going wrong! You did great! You got past the bad hill, coped with your phone going bad, did the trail & found the van. That's an adventure gone well all in all.
