 Okay, how am I gonna tackle this bit? I'm gonna try and go up this rock, but I might have made a mistake Good morning world, welcome back to the channel We are Lavi and Olli and we are attempting a new Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle New haircut, new dress, old t-shirt Just the old t-shirt for me. It is day number 148 and we are here on this beautiful little island called Ila de Paqueta in the Guanabara Bay of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. We are currently waiting for our beloved Suzuki Vistrom 1050XT Bumblebee to arrive here by container ship from Senegal in West Africa So in the meantime, we decided to make some special videos to sum up our 7,000 miles on the road so far And what a better way to start them with our crashes, fails and struggles Yeah, apparently it was really hard for us to keep Bumblebee upright the whole time. So enjoy Okay This is an adventure bike. This bike is ready to go on dirt roads. It's ready to go off-road We just have to be ready to go with it. Quite a big one Sorry It's good to have a scout of the whole place. I'll turn around Okay, oh, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry mother. I didn't look at all these You okay? Sorry It was really soft all of a sudden and the bike was just moving around like crazy And then there's nothing we can do. Oh Luckily, there's some guys to come and help us pick it up But keeping Bumblebee upright wasn't our only challenge We also had to contend with some crazy road conditions. First there was the weather Our first time Riding in the rain Since we got Bumblebee, yeah, it looks like it's gonna be rain probably for the rest of the ride 51 miles to go So I guess we'll just have to Just let it hit us push through Take it easy and we'll be alright The sunshine is over So yesterday was a complete disaster It's raining We're just gonna wait here a minute and see if it stops Put our rain jackets on Raining and there's a storm In the Sahara Super windy here. I mean, I don't know if you can see the angle of the bike at the moment But this wind is just smashing us from this side as the wind blows in from the coast Wow I think this is one of the strongest winds we've ever encountered This is like it's like nearly undrivable. I'm not even going fast I'm going like just over 50 miles an hour. There's some really strong wind now. Oh my god. Oh my god I'm really having to lean against this now Look at this truck is like almost tipping the truck over. Wow. That's quite scary. Hey, yeah This is just insane. Look the massive amount of sand just next to us Really out of this world. I mean look how big the sand dunes are They've already taken over half of our lane Oh my god Look how windy and sandy it is out here This is a pretty hostile environment to drive in I must admit and look sound blowing over the road You've got a strong wind coming from the coast. Oh My god, it's just mental. Yeah, it's super uncomfortable. It's very not nice at all And then there was the heat. I don't know how we will survive the day Because the temperature just climbed in the last ten minutes by five degrees So it was 30 degrees just over there and now it's on 36 Yeah, we're gonna be hitting some very high temperatures and That might be the end of the day for us there. I mean, I don't know if it gets really really much hotter I think we'll have to just give up. You wouldn't believe it, but 41 degrees The bike is registering 41 degrees when I lift my visor up It's like when you open the door of the oven So it's by far the hottest day on the road so far. It's unbelievable. It's really really really hot Our aircon. Yeah, homemade aircon. Homemade aircon And we've had to stop To put water on ourselves because it's about 38 degrees here now as we've come inland and it is super super super hot The wind is so hot Temperature is 32 degrees and it feels like 40 degrees Yeah, it's a humid 32. That's for sure. Yeah Seriously when you're not moving It's almost unbearable on the bike here. I mean it's so hot and humid like without any wind Whoa Sauna suit. We haven't really slept very well the last two days because it's too hot and Mosquitoes and again, it's just too hot and then there was the road itself. Oh, that is quite a big rock. Oh my god Yeah Nice and slow. I just stay on the inside track so that I don't fall down the hill It's okay, it's okay. I just do a little wheel spin We don't know if this is a good idea But this is the entrance into the area that we're looking to camp so River crossing first time. Let's go Okay, nice and straight nice and smooth There we go. That's how you do it After some deliberation We've decided that this is the right camp for us tonight. I just have a little bit of off-road maneuvering to do before we get there so I'm going to attempt to do it right now We're just beginning to arrive in the Gourafi Desert Badlands see how this road is This first gear just nice and easy Okay, we have to remember this crack there Got a little river crossing Not too bad. You see that we can do off-road too Okay, I'm gonna go over this like bump. Yeah, okay Okay Okay, I've got to get around this sandy corner. Oh, oh, that's a bit deep. Okay, okay Oh sandy start to the morning. We just hit a bit of sand like blown onto the road We go oh, yeah, there we go Okay, so this this road is like half under construction this sort of like a dirt road that we took And look at the the loose gravel here Yeah, yeah, I will Okay Okay, I just go nice and easy. Oh No, sweetheart, there's a truck in front just dropping gravel Oh No I need to see how far this is Jesus Not too easy, hey I don't know what to do. I Really hope there's no more of that to come. So we just got past that bit of gravel And now there's a whole lot of gravel in front God Well, this road never gives up a It's a real challenge very very nice and easy Nice and easy nice and slow Concentrate on the right. Yep, perfect Nice and easy nice and slow. Yeah, nice and easy nice and slow. Yeah This is definitely the most insane road I've ever driven Oh wait, I Think that's not good the chain It's not good. Not good. Yeah, look all of this. Oh Wow Some big switchbacks coming up What is that for a road? That's absolutely absolutely insane. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Wow It's just so rocky Oh my god, are you ready to ride the most crazy road we've ever seen? Yes, I am ready. Oh Look at this. Oh my god, haha. Okay, I got a few hairpins now A few hairpins. Nice and easy nice and slow. Yes Haha I think this is the best road we have ever taken so far. Okay, another hairpin Okay, it's okay. It's okay. Yeah Just about oh my god, just about hey, and there's trucks coming up here as well Oh Okay, yep, yep Oh my god, we just hit like a traffic jam on the gorge Crazy. Okay. We've come across what I think is a landslide Because they're clearing the whole thing and they've cut it all away. So I'm pretty sure this was all This all slid at some point recently. Yeah, I guess the whole cliff just kind of fell away into the valley Crazy. We've made our way into a little date palm forest area But now we've got to see how far we can go The car's gonna go first and then I'll follow Yeah, hold on a second. Yeah, wait, wait, wait, let me just get past this rocks Yep, still I'm still upright one second. I'm just gonna get out these rocks Wow a little bit of sand So I just got to take it super easy And try not to fall off I'm just gonna stand up a little bit. Oh good Oh Gonna get away from that Yeah, it's a little bit of a bumpy road from here to the main road Just trying to avoid the biggest the biggest and sharpest of the rocks Yeah, I just realized look at the sign That was probably a quite a bad idea to go and check that out looks like a bit of sand in the road coming up So we're gonna take it quite easy here. I don't think it's very deep. No, no, just go through it Uh-huh. Yeah, just go go through it. Yeah, I am and just taking it nice and easy Yeah, it's okay. Yeah Look at the entrance to this petrol station It's just pure pure sand a pure sand Oh my god before we leave town, we've still got a couple of sand obstacles to pass over of course Nice and easy nice and hello nice and easy Well, we definitely hit a lot of a bit of bad road here. Wow, we have to start with a Like 500 meter ride through the sand to get back to the road So I have to come round the building here And then down This is where this is where the sand gets a little bit deep. Luckily this part is downhill And we've got that traction by Dunlop Ha ha ha ha ha Whoa, look at the condition of the road here. Wow so many like Pot holes all over the road Yeah, it's a little bit more of a challenge. That's for sure. Whoa, look at this This is place That looks a little bit too Ha ha ha Yeah, I might need a push, but at the moment it's okay. Let's see how I get on Yeah, the road to this place not too amazing as you can see Okay, I can see the place Lavi. I'm nearly there. Oh got a bit of wheel spin You careful doggies here we are this is the place Okay a little bit of beach I slid through it. There was also the danger of other road users, especially in cities Now I just need to find the right exit because there are so many exits here Okay, all right, we're going Doesn't look like the people are waiting for the cars Okay, we're heading on our way out of New Adibu and a lot of people have woken up. It looks like because it is Massively busier than what it was when we came in look at the sea of old cars. Oh my goodness We're definitely hitting the traffic now All like massively old bangers that they've sort of painted Some panels black and some panels yellow. So we've reached the town of Ambor and we are met with a sea of cars and fumes Everybody fighting for survival Everyone wants to be the first but eventually we pushed through all the challenges and after three and a half months on the road We finally dropped off bumblebee at the container port in Dakar, Senegal to end the first leg of our Circumnavigation adventure around the globe. We really can't wait for the next leg to begin here in South America Please please guys make sure you subscribe to our channel right now and that you share this video with your friends and family Leave us a comment and a like below.
