This episode is a special one. While I was visiting Johannesburg in February 2020, I had a social ride with local riders. It was just before the world turned upside down. Now I feel nostalgic for these long-gone moments and I wonder how long it will be before we can have so much fun together... In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
Are we ready? Are we ready? Is your hair ready?
I don't know, is it ready? It tries to be ready.
Morag, very important, let's start with a story together because Morag has been,
has organized this day for us. So today it's 8th of March, International Women's Day and buddy,
we don't, we're not, we don't discriminate. We invited boys too for this little ride,
it's called On Her Bike Branch Run and we're starting here at the bikers warehouse,
these guys are super cool, they put up coffee and rusks, my favorite ones.
Really cool place, it's like a candy shop for us. I spent here the other day,
like a couple of hours just looking and it was so cool. Awesome. Say hi to my followers.
Hello followers.
Muzo is from Turkey and your son's name is Furkan, right?
Yes.
So what do you guys do here in Johannesburg? How long have you been living here?
We have been here almost 20 years.
20?
And we came for a business and we stayed here.
What sort of business do you have?
We manufacture blankets here.
Blankets?
Yes.
The ones that go to Lesotho maybe?
Well, we can go everywhere.
I feel so special.
Everyone, get in. Line up for the picture, please. That way.
There is a ride?
How's things?
Cool. What's up?
Oh, now I can at least say I got lost with fingers.
It's like, you know when you're in a group, you stop thinking?
Yes.
But we didn't see anybody.
And then you're lost.
Like that.
It's quick, eh?
It's so quick because there's so many bikes.
Is that us?
No, it's us.
Hello.
Good to meet you.
Hi, how are you going?
Excellent. There's the group.
Awesome. Thank you.
I got lost.
Suddenly, I was the leader.
I've done 120 kilometers.
I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be 80.
One.
Thank you.
No chatting because I've got a list of people.
There you go.
11. I'm counting how many people are riding.
Okay, this side of the table.
