 Oh, this place is crazy! Hi, I'm Lavi and this is Oli. We are attempting a new Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle. After riding 3,000 miles across Europe, we are now ready to explore the roads of North Africa. Click the subscribe button to follow our journey around the world and let the adventure begin. Good morning guys, today we have an extra special episode adventure for you guys. As you can see in front of us, this is not Bumblebee. This is in fact a KTM Power K scooter. Woohoo! So, this scooter is actually owned by the owner of this place, Villa Maguela. He said that we could use this scooter to run into town, into Nui Dibu, to run a couple of errands. So, without further ado, we are going to jump on and check it out. Okay, it's time to fire this baby up. Woohoo! Oh! Woohoo! Ready? Ready to hit the road! It's a good change to Bumblebee. So, this whole area here is part of the complex of Villa Maguela and this is the exit and look at what's around. Sand! And nothing! Yeah. A lot of sand, a lot of nothing, but yeah, this is definitely a different kind of riding to Bumblebee I must admit, but it's cool, it's lightweight, it's easy, yeah so this should be a pretty cool little adventure for us. So today we've got three things that we're going to try to achieve and what are those three things that we're going to try to achieve, Lavi? So at first we need the cash because we are spending it all. Yeah, at the Moroccan border we tried to spend every last dirham that we had, but now here in Mauritania we have zero Mauritanian ugia, which is the local cash, so down to the cash machine to get that. Yes, and secondly we have to get our bike insurance for Bumblebee because it is mandatory to have an insurance here for your vehicle so we don't want to mess around with that. We have to go into town and get Bumblebee insured. Oh yeah, oh yeah. And the third thing we have to sort out is a SIM card that we are connected to you guys because our Moroccan SIM card is not working anymore and we have to see what options we have here in Mauritania. So we'll try to get all of this sorted on the trusty little KTM scooter, look we've already got some bit of sand on the road here, look at that, so yeah we'll try to get these things sorted, but also gives us a chance to have a little look around Muadibu which is actually the second largest city in Mauritania behind Nuakshot. So Muadibu is just up ahead, so let's head on in and have a bit of an adventure, hey? I'm ready. So we're coming in a little bit more towards the city now and got five kilometers more to go, oh got some deeps and look how many Mercedes there are, it's like every car here is an old Mercedes 300 or 1300 or whatever this one in front is, this place is crazy. This is why Victor said that it was easier if we took his little scooter into town rather than our bike, yeah this is just more fitting to driving around in this place, yeah and also because it's quite hot and with our full gear on and everything it's like it's not very nice, no it's kind of nice to just be wearing shorts and t-shirt but that's only because we're reaching about maximum 20-25 miles an hour, yeah exactly, it's just like one step up from a bicycle, hey? Yeah, Salam! But it's really impressive because most people here they speak Arabic, French and then they have a local language as well which is called, you remember? I don't remember the name but I know that it's a dialect of Arabic coming from the same roots but a bit different to Arabic. Yeah I think it's something with H, Haseen and then of course like English is I think quite common here as well, yeah actually we've met a few people so far and they did actually speak English reasonably well yeah, so with our little French and their little English it kind of works, so there's kind of just a massive swarm of cars of old Mercedes cars going on and we've just got to kind of weave in and out and see what's going on and there's a donkey trying to go, I'll let him go, look this car has no headlights, yeah, just cardboard boxes instead of headlights, this guy's trying to turn but nobody's having any of it, look at these cars, wow, I'm just so impressed by how many old cars are still on the road here, it's crazy stuff, okay, this is the life in Nuridibu, we'll check back in once we get a bit closer to the centre, okay so we're coming up to the area now, I'm trying to think of the name of the bank that he said, there was something with an S, it was called, I wish I could remember but I can't, but he said it was next to an insurance, so it might be this building right here then, this green one, let's have a look, okay BCMI, no, what's this one, ah okay so this is the going to be, ah yeah here, yeah this this will be the one, Chinggiti, okay so the first bank we went to basically just rejected the card completely that was that was this bank here Chinggiti Bank, then we went over to another bank which is Bonk Populaire de Mauritanie, the first ATM, the buttons didn't work at all so we couldn't get anywhere but the second ATM worked fine, so now we're just walking over to the insurance company which is just down here and we're going to try and get our motorcycle insurance for the next week here in the country, so the insurance company that we were gonna go for which was just here, they're closed today because it's Friday, it's a holy day, the day that people are going to be praying and they're going to be closed all weekend until Monday, so basically if we can't find another insurance then we have to wait until Monday and we'll wait until Monday, okay so we're back heading the opposite way now and we're just going to keep our eyes out for a shop that might sell SIM cards or people that might sell SIM cards and at the same time maybe another insurance company that might be open today, although it's likely that everywhere will be closed, but yeah we'll keep our eyes peeled and let the power K do his job, look gamma assurances, let's check it out if it's open, okay oh look another insurance, hold on, international travel services, assurance duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, okay couple of insurance companies here that we can ask if they're open, nothing there, okay now both closed so I think insurance won't be possible today, but maybe we can still find a SIM card uh-huh SIM card this way, cool okay, thank you, thank you, thank you, so that was successful hey, that SIM card cost us 200 which is about five euro and that came with one gigabyte already on and we got them to set it up for us at the stall which they did and it worked it's perfect and we also bought a couple of slips of credit for another two euro fifty which should give us another load of internet once this one runs out so you kind of keep the slips, the top-up slips and then when we run out of data we can just call the number, put the number of the credit slip in and then we can add more internet to our SIM card, so it's pretty easy system, whoa look at this, I think everyone's praying, whoa okay, yeah because it's Friday today so Friday is the holy day in Islamic culture, Islamic religion, so that is pretty much it for our scooter adventure into Nuwudibu, we managed to get some cash, we managed to get a SIM card and some top-up slips for later, I'm just gonna go around this donkey cart but we didn't manage to get any insurance for the motorbike, that will have to wait until Monday now so that's okay, we'll spend the weekend here at our accommodation and on Monday we'll get the insurance in the morning before hitting the road to Nuakshot, so thanks everyone for joining us for this special KTM K-Power Power K scooter edition, it's been interesting to come into Nuwudibu and see it and chat to a couple of local people and yeah have a little look around
