I can't hear it But I can really see it But looks like it that That road will go along the ocean, so So this is very exciting it's getting closer and closer And what's really interesting about this road It's a salt road So yeah, one of the ingredients for the road base is salt I guess it's so close to the ocean But yeah, regardless you have to Watch your bike after being At the At the ocean But yeah it's not so good for the bike, hey? But it's interesting look it's so hard and compacted This is actually the first time I've ever come across road like that Pretty cool [Music] [Music] It's getting cold It's like 18 degrees I left I started a day with 33 And now it's18 It's cold I think I need to put a jacket on The inner jacket So, they're doing a little bit of road works It's interesting how they make this road Said okay, the truck is on my side Time Is on my side Yes it is So, that's the water truck Grader is on my side now Okay Right This way now I think Would be better It's so cold, it's seriously like 18 degrees When I was leaving In the morning Was 33 And now, 18 Cold I thought I'll be swimming in the ocean I have like little little holidays at the coast So, I don't think that This is so cold I can't believe it And it's just like within like, I don't know A few kilometres just dropped The temperature dropped so dramatically Much better [Music] There's this strange fog In the air But I still can see the ocean Seriously, going alone and nothing Must be, must the dunes Cold I wonder what that is, from the far I thought maybe it's a an old ship But no I think it's just all conveyor belts Yeah There's no signs to it, I don't know What that is It's something just an abandoned plant [Music] Finally Ocean [Music] So desert Ocean Desert Ocean Desert Ocean Chillie Pretty cool, I reckon [Music] How's my hair?
