About this film

“Chasing Dreams: A New Zealand Motorcycle Odyssey Begins” introduces a series of motovlogs from a ride through New Zealand. It is the first episode in the creator’s New Zealand series, but not the start of the wider journey: the description says the solo trip around the world began when onherbike left Australia in April 2017. The journey was named “Are We There Yet” because its final destination and duration were not known. This episode was recorded in February 2024 and published in April 2024. The description also identifies a fundraising aim connected to the wider trip: supporting Franek, a child in Poland who has cerebral palsy and requires ongoing rehabilitation.

The journey

The film is framed around motorcycle travel in New Zealand, with a BMW F800GS and a mix of scenic views and off-road challenges. The supplied description does not name a road, region, starting point or destination, so the route cannot be mapped more precisely from the available information. Instead, this first instalment establishes the country and the riding character of the series: an adventure on a motorcycle that includes both landscape and off-road terrain. The episode’s place in the journey is clear, even without a stated itinerary: it begins the New Zealand motovlog sequence within a much longer solo ride around the world.

People, places and moments

New Zealand is the central setting, and the description signals that scenery and off-road riding are key parts of the viewing experience. The BMW F800GS is identified as the motorcycle for the trip. Beyond those details, the available material does not specify particular encounters, landmarks or individual riding incidents. The wider journey also carries a charitable purpose: fundraising for Franek and his family. That context gives the international ride an additional dimension, while the episode itself is presented as the beginning of the New Zealand chapter.
