About this film
Episode 86 of onherbike’s motorcycle-travel series, the film runs for 22 minutes and 37 seconds. It was recorded in January 2020 and published in December of that year. The ride belongs to a solo journey around the world that began in April 2017, when the creator left Australia on a BMW F800GS. The journey was given the name “Are We There Yet,” reflecting an open-ended trip without a fixed final destination or duration. Here, the focus turns to a stretch of travel in South Africa rather than to a motorcycle review or workshop project.
The journey
The episode centres on a wander through the eastern part of South Africa. Its travel perspective is grounded in the country’s mountain scenery, warm ocean and natural surroundings, as the rider makes her way through this part of the larger solo expedition. The source frames the ride as an opportunity to take in the landscape, keeping the emphasis on the experience of travelling by motorcycle and the setting encountered along the way. It offers a South African chapter within an international journey that began in Australia.
