They don't have a website as such, but they have a YT channel: lavi & ollie.
To be honest, I wish them all the best, but their channel with them jumping up and down at each announcement, I find a bit weary on the eyes and ears.
Maybe cos I'm an old git, even Itchyboots has a more sedate way of announcing things.
However, they've been travelling from around 17 years of age, I was told yesterday, and their tours have been documented on YT, impressive for some so young. I only heard about them since yesterday, and as the Ace Cafe is only 40mins drive from me, I thought I'd go and lend support.
How do people fund these things? I'm guessing parents help out, but there's gotta be more to it than that.

Considering their circuitous route (see their YT channel for that info), they seem to have rather little on the bike.
In fact, they seem to have given more thought to the video recording options which I suppose is normal for the YT generation.
They had gone into the cafe once I took these pics of their bike.
I will follow them on their YT channel, if only to see how they get on in Russia in about a year's time (they reckon 2 years travelling in total)

They have a link for donations and probably generous parents to kick off. Looks like they are building their YT subscriber base and at some point that becomes profitable from the YT advertising. Won't be long till they figure out Patreon.
Bike is a new 1050 Strom so they have that going for them.
BUT
Clearly not experienced riders, especially 2-up, which shows in their off-road get-off, fresh in love...
Wish them well but what could go wrong?
