FZS €uro Tour
#1
Sooooo....

I went on a little 4000 mile trip on my Fazer this summer. And, as some of you may have become accustomed to, I recorded it with many cameras!

Here's a little taster of what's to come.

It would be great to get a few more subscribers on the channel, so if you like it, please do feel free to like the video and give me a sub for up to the minute video action!!

Cheers fellows!

Good trailer, I'll be tuning in for the feature film.
A few off the beaten track roads as well by the look of it, my favourite type of touring.
Nice choice of music to go with it, Spanish guitar- did you go to Spain as well? Guess I'll have to wait. So often people put up videos of whatever accompanied by their favourite type of music which isn't everyones type, so they stop watching.

You need that bloke with the really gruff voice doing a voice over as well, like in a Mad Max trailer.  :lol


I work in the film industry so can really appreciate the effort that you've put into that short trailer alone.


Very nicely done fella, and also a great advert for the bike.  Wink

Excellent taster, can't wait for the rest Andy!
You're movies and clips get better with each new one, can I see a new career in the making?
Knowing you're a musician as well, I wondered if the soundtrack on that was your own composition too? Seems like a logical progression.

Would you mind if I share this on another forum?

Thank you all very kindly chaps! Great response so far, better than expected!


In answer to the questions...


Phil, Spain will be featuring about mid way.


Darrsi, cheers for the appreciation, and it I did seriously consider trying the gruff voiceover effect "This summer, one man....."


Rodyork, It'll be more of a series to start with, but no reason why I can't compile an all in one movie version at the end for those who have enough popcorn!


Nick, Thanks a lot! I'm glad there's obvious improvement and I would LOVE the idea of this being the full time job! The Music is indeed mine (cheers Darrsi for the youtube post, good background knowledge there!).  And PLEASE do share the trailer where ever and however you feel like!




I'm almost done with episode 1. The longest (by far) ride of my entire life!!

Nice one; you are, without doubt, a very talented individual  :thumbup

Well, if you want someone to come along on your travels and film you from another bike, don't hesitate to ask!  :lol

Thanks again Nick, you are too kind.

Next time I'm in the UK, or you find yourself in northern Germany, it's a date!

Thanks Bill! You're so right. I should have been leaving before the Hamburg folk were even thinking about scratching their arses that morning. Still, you live and you learn...

I did from here (Oxford) to about an hour south of Oslo in 48 hours. That's about 1200 miles. I hope your arse wasn't as sore as mine when I got there! I had to shift my weight about every 5 minutes by that time. I rode from Oxford (6pm) Dover, Calais (arrived about 1am) to Antwerp (slept), then Munster, Hamburg, Puttgarden, Copenhagen (midnight, slept), Gothenburg, Rudskogen in Norway, by 6pm. Including meeting my mate in Gothenburg, and going shopping for our week of camping!
[size=1em]Then home via Wiesbaden for a week (sprocket and chain change), then Paris for 3 days. Approx 3500 miles, over 2000 of which without satnav, some without a wallet and only Danish Kroner! It rained from England to Hamburg too, which is a bloody long way! I feel your pain in Ep 1![/size]


[size=1em]Where are you in North Germany? Road trips are fun - if I can afford it, I'm going to do similar again next year, but go lots of other countries - I'd like to go to Poland, East Germany would be good, Austria/Switzerland, Italy, maybe even further![/size]

[size=1em]I've going to watch all your episodes now Big Grin [/size]

Wow Papercutout, That's an epic trip. And you did it with less wind protection than I had! Hat's off to you!


It sounds like my arse was just the same as yours. For stretches of miles at a time i was gripping the tank with my knees and half standing on the pegs to hover my poor arse off the seat! And that was with an inflatable seat cover thingy!


Hope you enjoy(ed) the rest of the episodes. Another new one coming today....
