Lesotho Broke my Trike ๐ฑ๐ธ vA34-S2
I finish my ride from Mount Moorosi to Mphaki, in Lesotho. As I am about to reach the summit of a high altitude mountain pass, the kids of a nearby school start following me. They ask for sweets and we start racing to the submit. On the way down, as I take a break, they catch me again, and I finally give them a bit of nuts. After passing by a bit of African snow, while I ride across the unreal landscapes of remote Lesotho, I discover that my chain is broken…
I have 10 k left to reach Mphaki, and somehow, I manage to reach my destination, exhausted by the crazy slopes of the roads of Lesotho. Once in Mphaki, I go to look for food, and I somehow find a woman who wants to become my wife. This is Africa.

I am so happy to have caught this continuation of your Lesotho. You have indeed become a good friend to me and the other people following your trip. You are so patient with everyone that wants to talk to you. You are one amazing guy and l really admire you. I hope your knee has a good chance to recover. Go my friend, go!!!! ๐๐ฟ๐ฆโฃ๏ธ
Lesotho is beautiful โค
Finally I'm watching a current show of yours. I'm so happy I found you. I I'm really enjoying your channel. I like the way you love all the food. You really enjoy it. Maybe you should have accepted that ladies marriage proposal. She's got a nice little restaurant and she's a good cook. I'm sure you probably had a few marriage proposals along your journey.โบ๏ธ
The people of Africa are so interesting and very nice. They all love you.โค
Safe travels!
Hi @kino Yves. Thank you for the beautiful content youโve created to date. I have a question, have you considered getting a drone for capturing the full views of some of the places you visit ? It would help also with checking some areas you need to go past ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ i know some areas have restrictions on what you can capture, how high you can go and how that is capturedโฆ i think we deserve a different view ๐
We have given you a wife๐
Offer not for exchange โค๏ธโ๐ฉน
The child spits on the floor at you? I would have left immediately. You didnโt like the Zamdu Lodge for 45 euros?
35:21 Wow havent seen one of those Lion Matches boxes below the sugar. They were the only matches around upto the 70s then BIC lighters replaced matches.
Pap my favorite. Such a lovely place .Swop my shower for such peace .lovely ๐
ye such childhood is truly what we all should strive for. also the memories it makes, the dreams you'll have… your entire life is so completely different.. people in the west have no idea anymore how life could be and especially feel like. i mean you can tell your own story about all that even though you're not living like this, but it's close =) Have a wonderful time!.
I love that you're back in Africa now 29:22
Ahhh he is such a sweety!! Wishing I could buy him sweets. Wowzers he runs!!
These people live a happy free life , payed by the South African tax payer ๐
How does he know Sesotho that way? โMetsi a chesangโ, โMetsi a batangโ
Let's teach our kids not to follow people that they do not know.. And also not to ask anything from somebody that they are not familiar with….same as adults ๐
I dont mind kids too much but that many would drive me crazy. Yves needs to stockup on sweets for his new fans
You get a lot of charity from people who have almost nothing, relative to your European wealth, even the rural South Africans struggle but they are always very generous with you, they give a lot, but you seem to be quite tight mostly not giving in return.
I love Africa , God bless itโs beautiful people and land , greeting from Ireland ๐ฎ๐ช โ๐ฎ๐ช๐๐
You sir are a true son of Africa. Even I who was born and raised in Africa is not as African as you are. I salute you
Whysome of them are speaking isizulu instead of sotho?
Someone needs to give that Boy scholarship
Africa is friendly and safe. They took that for weakness. Rest of other continents, racist and dangerous for black man
You are going to D!e my friend we dont want problem ๐
Listen to an old healer, get Castor oil make a poultice and wrap your knees in it especially at night! If you can keep it on for 3days and nights initially it will be amazing for you! Trust me
Contact me if you want more info
Whenever you are in northern part of India you are welcome to come and stay with me in kasauli a famous hillstation.
I was speaking too soon about there not being beggars in Lesotho ๐..
Omg stay strong Yves๐
Man those kids are annoying. Touching his stuff
pleasant as Uganda nice to see you are back in Africa
As any touring cyclist, I'm sure you're carrying spares chains. I'm shocked you continued on that dodgy chain, I was sure it was going to break in the next hill.
Those Lesotho kids are adorable! Free and curious. What a beautiful country!
Your chain is telling you to take a break. No pun intended๐

That little boy even the legs can tell
Pap, mutton and cabage wit the most beautifull view, best way to end a hard day of trying to cycle away from Africa child who runs to school and back every day ๐
If you travel through Lesotho in a fancy 4×4, you will never experience this country on the level you do! ! This is the very best way to really get to know this country and its people – an unique experience!
Am I the only one wondering if the lady actually pulled up ๐
These children are like we were 60 years ago! fit and happy! No cell phones and expensive toys, barefoot, no fancy sneakers!๐๐๐
Man that trike is so slow !
the sun there has very good color with the environment
Yves, remember to buy a bag of sweets when u get to a town, these kids will appreciate the smallest gift and will remember you for ever!!
Sadly, that the kids of Lesotho do not have opportunities
Yves alwas have a chain breaker a spare chain and lube with you!
This one deserves a rewatch ๐
The kingdom in the sky talk is no exaggeration I guess, everything in Lesotho is just higher and higher..
Hope she came๐
Kid is giving me anxiety… Go away!๐๐
