Still some parts missing, but I will mount that at the first service (1000km)

Videos coming soon, and if there is anything you like me to cover please share them in the comments bellow and I try to cover it as best I can.

Cheers 🥃

What is your take communication systems in your helmet when out riding?

I have never before in my 22 years of riding a motorcycle used a communication system in my helmet. I rather be alone with my thoughts and plan out new video ideas as I ride on the boring parts of my motorcycle trips. I have always been convinced that this is absolutely nonsense and something I'm much better off without.

But I think I need to take back those bold statements. Because this is way more genius than I expected. And just because you have it there, you don't need to have it on all the time. Once again, I stand corrected... and I like it!

Today I delivered my old bike to my local dealer, and while I was there, I got a question if I would like to test ride their new demo bike, the new Tracer 9 GT 2025
I normally don't test ride bikes I can't afford to buy, but today I was willing to make an exception. And I have to say, I have forgotten how much fun it is to ride a more street oriented bike.
What surprised me even more is how powerful this bike feels. Really pleasant surprise, but NO! I'm not getting that old yet 😂 I'm still waiting for my new Ténéré 700 Rally.
But it was a fun experience.

I might test ride more bikes in the future 🤩🤌🏻

I have had so many fantastic miles on this bike. It has been with me trough highs and lows, and now our time is gone, it is time to clean in, put it in mint condition and make it ready for the next rider. I'm getting my new bike soon and will pass this on to a new lucky rider.

More to come really soon 🤩

Happy easter

Back home after some incredible days in Morocco 🇲🇦

I have to say, this is more than just a facelift. It feels like a new bike 🙌🏻 I'm really impressed by the subtile changes they have made and how much of a difference they all make. I'm working on a video about my first impression and there will be much more of It when my new bike arrives.

It is still a lot to process and sink in. But I hope to have something ready in the next couple of days. I'm really happy that I ordered a new bike this time 🔥🤩

More to come really soon.

A gimbal is probably the most expensive tool you don't need for making videos. And yet, here we are 🤣 just bought my second one. Why? well, size and those few moments when there is only a gimbal that can get you those creative shots.
When I see gimbal videos online it is all about those cinematic moves, spinning 360 things and what not. Yes I get it, it looks cool and a bit overused. But how would you use a gimbal for motorcycle videos? This is something I thought could be interesting to show you guys. Show you more about why you don't need one, but also why I choose to add a second one to my tools in content creation 🙏🏻

As an online creator, many seem to believe that you must follow certain rules posting at least once a week to stay relevant, chasing trends to gain views, and constantly analyzing the numbers. But in the process, the joy of creating often fades, replaced by the pressure of playing the algorithm game. Instead of making content they truly enjoy, many burn out, losing sight of why they started in the first place.
I have always stayed away from these expert tips online, I tend to do the exact opposite when someone tells me "what to do" And it seams to work just fine.
But this advice and tips has to come from somewhere. So what is your take on this, as a viewer? Do you mind if they have a steady upload schedule? Do you tend to follow people who upload often or do you just dont mind it as long as what they make are relevant to what you enjoy watching?

I always enjoy to back up my own thoughts with numbers. If they don't back up my own believes I get to learn something new and that is even better.

Every year, I challenge myself to try something new or revisit an old skill with a beginner's mindset. Stepping away from digital noise and constant screen time has done wonders for my creativity and focus, it’s like hitting the reset button for my mind.

At first, the idea of starting a journal felt silly, and I really struggled to see the point. Sitting down with a blank page felt awkward, and I wasn’t sure if it was worth the effort. But after a couple of weeks, something clicked. Suddenly, it started making sense, and now I find myself spending at least half an hour to an hour every day writing. And the best part? I actually enjoy it.

What once felt like a chore has now become a powerful practice! one that fuels my creativity and helps me stay more in tune with my thoughts. Journaling has turned into a space where ideas flow freely, without distractions, and where I can truly create without limits, and I really hope it can be transferred over to my video making and open up for some new and creative projects going forward.

New Video coming soon 🎥

I'm already planing a new trip up north. To continue the travel past Andøya, Senja and North Cape. I also want to visit some WW2 spots outside Tromsø, and maybe find the house where my family originates from up here. This is a region I really want to explore more of, not only the famous tourist spots, but all the small fishing villages and islands around. To really see how the coast and weather has formed the people who still lives up here.

Much more to come in 2025 and 2026 🎥

There is one thing I learned from my trip up North! Maybe the most valuable lesson... I have to go back, I need much more time and I want to bring someone with me. Because all of this is not easy to take in by yourself. Some trips are probably better with someone or a little group.

I'm really starting to look forward to another season and more travels.

Stay warm... 🔥 couple of more months to go before winter is gone (up here)

And yes, I'm halfway done with the Video 🤣🎥
