Hello all together,

Our new travel report „The Rock“ is about THE ONE rock in Australia.

Of course there are plenty of travel reports and pictures about the Uluru but of course, as soon as we arrived there, dark clouds have been risen from the horizon… but that´s not always a bad sign!

What we exactly experienced in the heart of Australia you can read here:

Stunning photos here.

Mt Conner (Atila), Uluru, Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) ... homesick!

You were so luck to be at Uluru when lightening appeared.
It's absolutely stunning too when it rains and its walls have torrents of waterfalls cascading down.

And yes, it's tragic about the 'petrol sniffing'.
Been happening since the 1960s and nothing/no-one seems to be able to combat it.
So sad.
 
@2wheels: Happy to hear that you like our travel blog and the pics! We really had a great time traveling through Australia... but now it´s time for something new and we are really exciting about New Zealand! :)
 
Dear family, friends and “follower”,

even if we have absolutely no Christmas feeling – maybe it´s because its 30 degree hot here in Australia and the sun is burning from the sky – we want to use the opportunity to wish all of you a Merry Christmas!

Enjoy the coming days with your loved ones!


Yours
Bea & Helle

NZ is wonderful; sure you'll like it.
 
Hello everybody!

Our new travel report „Next turning two days ahead!” is about the unbelievable message on our navi that our next turn will be in 576 km.
Furthermore we are struggling with the extreme heat in the Australian Outback and Bea lost her snack to a sneaky bird.

Thanks for sharing your travels with us on RideAsia.

It's 'another world' out there isn't it?
Now very expensive …. but at least the main roads are now surfaced!

How are the TransAlps performing?

Very best wishes.
 
Just a comment re the alcohol and Aborigines issue in Alice Springs.
What you saw is what most tourists see and it's very sad.

However, as most if not all of the Central Australian Aboriginal communities have a self-imposed alcohol ban,
the alternative is for those who want to drink to go into Alice Springs to do just that.
And that, for them, is the reason Alice is there! And that's what residents and visitors see.

Enjoying following your tour and the brilliant images.

Best wishes.
 
@2weehls:
The Transalps are doing a good job although they are over 20 years old already. Can´t really complain so far! :-)
 
In our new travel blog "contact difficulties" it´s all about Bea´s "Dicke Rosi" being a bit stubborn and our unexpected meet up with Santa Clause and his followers.

After a long 14 day separation from our bikes it was finally time for our reunion. Thanks to the unbelievable helpful staff from the biosecurity and the Auckland port security we´ve been able to get our bikes back just before the weekend.
Yeha!!!

It´s been our first day on the road and New Zealand showed its best sides already. Wonderful summer weather, fantastic winding gravel road through secluded landscapes and a breathtaking view over the coast.
That definitely makes the heart of every motorcycle traveler beat faster!

Hey Guys!

In our new travel report „temporary farewell” it´s all about preparing our faithful travel companions for their “great journey”.

But despite of all the shipping stress we found the time to have a closer look around the Gold Coast and Brisbane and we experienced a fantastic Christmas day including gift giving and feast! :-)

Glad you enjoyed Down Under.
You've done a good job of sharing it with many others.
I'm sure you'll find New Zealand to be spectacular.
Best wishes.
 
G´day!

As we left Australia just recently after 1 ½ years it´s time to publish a (quite extensive) conclusion about this (quite big) country. We start with our very personal conclusion about Australia and give you some practical and helpful tips and tricks. Furthermore we listed all our required wearing parts, equipment defects and much more. We also give you all details about shipping us and our motorcycles from Australia to New Zealand.

http://www.timetoride.de/l%C3%A4nderinfos/fazit-australien/

(Please use language select button on the right hand side of the page!)

Furthermore we have a couple of new travel reports about New Zealand:

In our first travel report „Release on bail“ it´s all about our first experiences and impressions in New Zealand and our “battle” with the New Zealand authorities and against the time to get our two travel companions free.
If we made it?
You will find out here!

In our second travel report „The forgotten World!“ we´ll report about our first kilometers on New Zealand´s roads which turned out to be an absolute motorcycle highlight already. Among other things we´ll tell you about our exciting trip along the “Forgotten World Highway” to the rebellious republic of “Whangamomona” where we even got an own entry stamp into our passport!

And last but not least:
As the name suggests, our new travel report „Upside Down“ is about things (or motorcycles?) which stand overhead.
Furthermore we are visiting the place with the longest name on earth and we make a detour to the most southern point of the North Island of New Zealand, where we have quite close contact to some fur seals.

Enjoy our stories! :-)
 
Today we have 2 new travel reports up our sleeve:

On the one hand in our new travel report „Somewhere over the rainbow“ it´s all about… a rainbow?
No, not really.
But we´re exploring the Rainbow Road, a well known Offroad track through the stunning untouched nature of New Zealand´s South Island.
Furthermore we´re exploring Christchurch together with the “German motorcycle gang”.

Sounds interesting?

And on the other hand in our new travel report „The mountain is calling!” it´s all about mountains. Well, almost everything.
We have been introduced into the Maori tradition as well and tried delicious Hāngi. What, you don´t know what Hāngi is? Then read our travel report and find it out! :-)

In our new travel report „In the land of the long gray cloud“ we are exploring the solitary vastness of the South Island.

Furthermore we are visiting the steepest road in the world as well as the deepest lake in Oceania.

Well, and as the title of the travel report suggests, we are able to enjoy the pleasure of the typical New Zealand weather once again. ;-)

G´Day!

In our new travel report „Another day in Paradise“ we have the unique opportunity to discover the mountains and glaciers of the South Island from the bird´s eye view.

Furthermore we explore some great motorcycle roads despite of the partially rainy weather and we espied a “real” movie action hero.

G´day mates!

In our new travel report "On the trail of a catastrophe" we are exploring Christchurch which had been widely destroyed due to a major earthquake in the year 2011.

Furthermore we meet a fellow German motorcycle travel couple and spend a couple of great evenings in great company with the "German motorcycle gang" in Christchurch. :)

G´day mates!

It is nearly been a month since you heard from us last. But that doesn´t mean that there haven´t been any news on our web page. Quite the contrary, in the meantime we have released 3 new travel reports!

In our first travel report „A freezing surprise” New Zealand surprised us one more time with its diversity.
From fresh snow in the Alps to summer temperatures by the sea to our battle against the sand flies there is much going on this time!

Click here for the report:

(Please use language select button on right hand side of the page!)

In our second travel report In our new travel report „Step by step farewell“ it´s all about our last days on New Zealand´s South Island.
We explore some secluded gravel roads along the bays and fjords around the breathtaking Marlborough Sounds.
Furthermore Bea has a little “accident” with her bike and we experience a tropical thunderstorm on our way up North.

(Please use language select button on right hand side of the page!)

And in our latest travel report „Just the usual madhouse” it´s not about a streak of bad luck but of rain which is hunting us for weeks now.
Furthermore we are meeting our friend and fellow motorcycle traveler Paul again and Helmut has to slave for the new rubber on our tires.

Furthermore, we have another exciting news: We arrived at our destination for the next couple of weeks!

While our bikes have to spend some time on the high sea crossing the Pacific Ocean (hopefully) unscathed we visit our home country.

We will use this “forced stop over” not only to visit our families and friends but also to work and thereby refilling our travel funds.


Nevertheless we still have plenty of travel reports, user reviews and one or another new video up our sleeve.

So it remains exciting, even if we are back home for a couple of weeks!

G´day mates!

Despite our „7 to 4 job“ we have been quite busy during the last couple of weeks and have released not one but two new travel reports on our web page.

In our first travel report „Course north” we are exploring New Zealand´s far north.

Amongst other things we are fighting with a whole crowd of people for a hot spring on a beach, we are enjoying riding our motorcycles along the windy costal roads of the Coromandel Peninsula and in Auckland we get spoiled with original Bavarian Käsespätzle (cheese Spaetzle).

Furthermore we enjoy the great Kiwi hospitality once again and we experience one of our highlights in New Zealand, we are riding our bikes on the famous Ninety Mile Beach.
What a ride!

And as the title „The last kilometers…“ suggests, in our latest travel report it is all about our last motorcycle kilometers on New Zealand soil.

And these last kilometers have a lot to offer. We are visiting the most northern point of the North Island and we are training our motorcycle riding skills in the deep sand around the foot of massive sand dunes.

Furthermore Helmut becomes the victim of a nasty wasp attack and he has to deal with some more difficulties… :)

Hello all together,

Our new travel report „On the Road again” is about our arrival on the fourth continent of our motorcycle world travel.

Thanks to the new culture, foreign language and one and another specific of the country our first days in South America have been quite turbulent!

What exactly happened?

G´day mates,

In our new travel report „It´s getting colorful!“ things are getting lively!

We are exploring the Andes off the beaten tourist tracks, we are picking up with the Argentinean vegetation which is proverbially leaving a lasting impression with us and we are hurling ourselves into the chaos of the traditional veneration of the saints together with hundreds of Argentineans!

Sounds exciting? It really is!

G´day mates!

It´s been a while since we last updated our travel reports, but today we even have three new travel reports for you!

In our travel report "Improvisation is everything!" we are visiting the world´s largest copper mine and after we literally make off back to the Pacific coast we meet up with other motorcycle travellers and try to solve our clutch problem in a very special way.

Click here for the report:
http://www.timetoride.de/2015/02/09/südamerika-11-chile-improvisation-ist-alles/
(Please use the translation button on the right hand side of the page!)



Our travel through Chile continues!

In our travel report “A ride into the uncertain” we meet up with a couple of old and new travel friends, enjoying some great days together.

Furthermore we are visiting the world´s largest pool which fits the unbelievable volume of 200.000 bathtubs full of salt water and we are heading towards the Lonquimay volcano, not knowing what adventures and challenges are awaiting us on the way.

You want to know if our river crossing was successful or if we “took a bath” together with our bikes?

You will find out in our new travel report “Chiles longest shortcut” while you will accompany us along an adventurous track into the mountain region of Central Chile.

But it´s not just that we have to cross freezing cold mountain rivers, we also have to climb up steep hills, ride or bikes on rough roads and, to crown it all, we have to battle against wind and rain as well.

How our journey ended?

You will find out here:
Südamerika 13 - Chile - Chiles längste Abkürzung! - TimetoRide - Auf Motorrad-Weltreise mit Bea und Helle
(Please use the language select button on the right hand side of the page!)


AND:


We´ve made it!
Another huge milestone of our adventurous motorcycle travel around the world is done:

We have arrived in USHUAIA the southernmost city of the world!!!

From now on we will only head North.

If we would follow the straight route along the Panamericana, we would be in Alaska in not more than 17.848 km.

So let´s meet up in Prudhoe Bay in about 14 days! ;)

G´day mates!

Even if it´s been a while since Christmas Eve, in our new travel report „Feliz Navidad“ it´s all about Christmas. Unfortunately we haven´t been able to celebrate Christmas with our families and friends for the fourth year in a row, but we still enjoyed the time just with the two of us.

Furthermore a typical Bavarian dish nearly ruined New Years Eve for Bea.

Why?

G´day mates!

We have heard a couple of stories about the famous Carretera Austral already.

This some hundred kilometres long offroad track in the very South of Chile should lead through dense, untouched rain forest and along empty ocean bays and deep blue lakes. But stories are told that the track also is in a very bad condition, full of thousands of potholes, deep enough that allegedly some fellow travellers disappeared in them and haven´t been seen ever again. Together with thick, loose gravel and endless stretches of wash board riding this track should be a real challenge.

But what´s really true about this myth and what not, that is what we wanna find out ourselves and so we set out for the dream road of every Patagonian traveller.

In our new travel report “Carretera Austral” you will find out what we really experience on the road!

Ah, by the way!

We are not just working on updating our travel reports regularly, the category “Equipment” needed a spring-cleaning as well!

We started with the subcategory “Electronics”, which is now even more detailed and informative.

In addition we will present all our new equipment we are travelling with right now on the home page of our blog periodically.

We will start with the SENA Bluetooth Audio Pack for our new GoPro 3 + which opens us a whole range of new and interesting possibilities for our videos.

We have made the first part of the famous Carretera Austral with no problems, but our ride along the rough and wild coastal landscape in southern Patagonia hasn´t come to its end yet!

In our new travel report “Carretera Reloaded” we are hiking on the top of an still active volcano, exploring hidden marble caves in the Lago General Carrera and battling the capricious Patagonian climate.

If you think the German deposit system is complicated and very bureaucratic, you are completely wrong!

In our new travel report “Death the Argentinean deposit system” we will tell you about our daily gauntlet running on the Argentinean supermarket check outs.

But there are good things to talk about, too. Helmut did some first aid help on an Argentinean Transalp and for once we used our feed not just for braking and shifting but also for hiking the famous Mount Fitz-Roy.
Well, a few kilometres at least... ;-)

G´day Mates!

In South America BBQ´s are not just an important part of the food culture, it´s also a way of life.

In our new travel report “It´s Asado-Time” we are following a lamb´s way onto the fire up close and are contributing a little bit of our Bavarian culture to this important event... ;)

Furthermore we have to move with our portable home into a tent ghetto for a couple of days before we are able to escape into the rough Patagonian nature at the shore of the Magellan Street.

And we are celebrating the reunion with an old travel friend we first met in Australia...

G´day mates!

We take the ferry across the Magellan Street to the legendary island “Tierra del Fuego” from where we have some more exhausting days of riding before we finally arrive in Ushuaia.

A few years ago we would never have dreamed about riding our own old motorcycles to the most southern city of the world. We also would never have dreamed that the wind in southern Patagonia can be that strong that it blows a motorcycle down like it´s a toy... :-)

And if you think that nowadays there are no more treasures to hunt you are wrong. In our new travel report “The treasure from the Garibaldi Pass” we will proof you the opposite! :-)

Work first, then pleasure.

This is the slogan of our new travel report „No ice without sweat!”, because Helmut has to drudge first before we are able to visit the impressive Perito Moreno glacier in the South of Argentina.

Furthermore we are killing time together with about 50 other Argentineans on a gas station and we are enjoying a great camping evening together with old and new motorcycle travel friends.

We have actually planned to celebrate Bea´s birthday with a relaxed BBQ and a cold beer, but things sometimes turn out very differently than planned…

But our new travel report “A different birthday surprise” is not just about Bea´s great day, we also visiting the National Park `Los Alerces´, which not just surprised us with its stunning untouched nature but also with forest fires & storm and rain.

Furthermore we are looking forward to another meet up with old and new travel friends.

We have some news and updates in our category „Equipment“, too:

Almost four years of travelling around the world on our motorcycles have also left some marks on our camping equipment.

What has proven successful?
What did we sort out?
Do we have a “must-have”, that we would never wanna miss again in our daily camping life?

In our completely redesigned category “Equipment -> Camping” you will find answers to all this questions and many more:

G´day mates!

From the relaxed motorcycle traveler’s paradise „La Posta“ in Azul we are heading into the urban jungle of Buenos Aries, which is welcoming us with 13 million citizens, a ten-lane motorway and a proper traffic chaos!

Luckily the motorcycle community in Argentina is fantastic and so we have a warm welcome and a place to stay at a motorcycle enthusiastic local couple´s place.

After a couple of days of marathon sightseeing in Argentina’s capital it´s time for new adventures and so we set off for Uruguay and have been rewarded with a stunning sunset at the shore of Rio Uruguay.

At the beginning of our trip we thought we just have important and useful equipment with us, but that doesn´t mean that our opinion had proven right over the time.

This is the reason why we have the category “Field reports” on our web page and today we added another long term equipment field report:

We have used the SENA SMH 10 Bluetooth Communication System almost daily for 26 month and now we give you a detailed report about the system, how it works, what it offers and if we´ve been satisfied with it!
