@@shutiaolao7535 Hi, the main parts of both rifles are made from mild steel.

@@MarkDaleADV Thank you for your answer.😘

@@RTPOV A classic, had a VFR750fh as well back in the 90's. Lovely bikes, with another great soundtrack! Yes we should meet up for a spin somewhere between. I'm retiring (again) in 3 weeks, so will have more time then. How about you, do you have any time in the week or just at weekends?

@@MarkDaleADV Me too had a red 1993 750! Im quite flexible. I run my own business, so it just depends. Some weeks are are mental and some weeks quieter

2-3kg of coal and a handful of wooden sticks would be going out after around 90 minutes. I top up the coal after the fire has got going after 30 minutes in this video, for a bigger blaze and because I want it to burn for several hours into the evening. I would add another kilo of coal every 45 minutes or so to keep it going at the rate I want, maybe adding a log on top to make the coal supply last a bit longer and radiate more heat into the room. Nothing like having a real fire in the room!

I think is was just some random softwood, but it might have had a bit of a mix as well, so you could be right. Yes, that's a great trick with the newspaper over the front of an old baxi! Always used to enjoy going over the top and letting the paper get drawn in when it started to get scorched. That's one of the good things about living in Anglesey there's always a stiff breeze to make the chimneys draw well! Enjoy your fires over Christmas, I know I will.

Thanks, I think the whole process is magical, from cutting the logs, and kindling, building the fire, lighting it, and then relaxing by it. Nothing else quite like it. I also looked after the family homes Rayburn when I was a teenager,. As I was usually the last to come home, I would empty the ash, refuel with anthracite, and then shut down the dampers before going to bed. The most important job in the camp!

Too true! The steering weight of a transit van, weilded with a wheel the size of a saucer.

Thanks, it's really nice to hear that people get so much pleasure from this record. I can tell that you're a credit to your Dad, as you have grown into a man of great taste, and discernment .

Were we already aware that these Beasts were doomed? Probably our last chance to see them in the wild.

I wouldn't have been able to! The fact is the target cam shows the fly clearly, but the scope of course doesn't, or maybe it's just my poor eyesight? Thanks, I do enjoy trying to get the best out of the guns by experimenting with technique, perhaps why PCP doesn't appeal to me.

More like the opposite Fon, worn out Anglesey tarmac ripping up my old girl!

Hi there, thanks for comments, they are much appreciated, and by the way, your English is great, perfectly understandable. I have already changed the templates before next time, incorporating some of your suggestions, as I also felt it needed a few tweaks. The stage times will now also be tabulated, the animation, and the tables will be on the screen for longer as well. I know what you mean, the data and footage is very scarce as you say, not helped by the fact that Gopros seem to be frowned upon in many of the events on the Hard enduro circuit. Ideally, I would like the GPS tracks for all the riders, not sure if Erzberg still use them. Romaniacs will of course, and that would yield the best comparison data. I'm inclined to concentrate on the timing, and not the video, it is as you obviously know, a time intensive process, and also the race data is a fresh area of exploration if you like, more of a unique approach for me. We'll see how it goes. I'm thinking of doing another video titled - "Should Graham Jarvis have won Erzberg 2023" I think it would be popular LoL. What do you think, have a bit of a rant, and wind a few people up hehe.

I only wish I did, this is my only unique footage I'm afraid.

Never had an iPhone, so I'm guessing they do spreadsheets of course? No reason why the calculations can't be made on a dedicated sheet, that's all the calculator is really.

Yeah, I love keeping things simple, reminds me of the saddle bags on horses in the good old westerns. It actually stopped working on its own, honest! But you're right, CCM Speedos only do about 250 miles on average before going wrong. To be fair I had 'fabricated' my own wheel spacers to get the road wheels to fit, didn't quite get the Speedo drive 'right first time' All sorted now I'm home. Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed it.

The Speedos on these are bloody awful.. worth installing an aftermarket GPS Speedo!

Thanks, I did put a bit of effort in this time, moderately happy with the result, but it's so time consuming, and I could go on for ever! 'Rolling Thunder!' was that saying made up for CCM's, or do you think it's been applied to a lot of other stuff as well. I have the T shirt. As I'm sure is the case with the KTT, it sounds even better in person.

@@MarkDaleADV I might try and use music in segments of non speaking parts of my rides never done a separate audio track so might be tricky also need copyright free track otherwise all that time and effort of making the video would be useless. And yea I’ve noticed when trying to edit up my videos where I let the camera roll and later cut out the bits I don’t want bloody ages. That’s why I preferred my original efforts where I only had to cut the front and the back off

@@velofan. You should try it, I imagined with your musical background you might also try to rustle up some mood music of your own? Another definite advantage if you could. Whatever, there appears to be plenty of royalty free music out there, however as you probably realise, the world is divided between people who want to hear the bike, and those that appreciate some musical enhancement, I guess as long as it's not blanket techno, most don't mind a mixture of the two approaches.

@@MarkDaleADV I’ve seen a few dare devil videos on the tube over in Europe with banging techno music. I didn’t enjoy but I figure if it’s done like your bid with a mixture or spoken. Bike noise. Music it can work quite nicely. And yes loads of free royalty free music but would take some digging to find anything that’s appropriate. I doubt I would be able to record a track for my bike videos but it’s possible.

Thanks, I usually alternate on the bike vids, between titles and voice-over, but the slowish nature of the road lent itself to the cause, and so I tried to raise my voice and it seemed mostly intelligeble. I also taped off the front vent of my helmet before the ride to help, but anything over about 45mph was still mostly drowned out by the wind noise. I think the poor aerodynamics of my ADV helmet is partly to blame, but I don't like riding without a peaked helmet now because of the glare, so the chat will have to suffer I'm afraid. Anyway, it's nice to know now that I can add an audible commentary or notes to myself where I can. I'm working on the main video for the ride, but it's taking longer than expected to tell the story, as opposed to short excerpts like this, so I decided to make some progress by throwing up a few more straightforward location based vids. I thought the camera caught the extreme incline rather well, especially on the downhill sections, which is unusual, or maybe it's because it is so extreme, that it appeared so? I've also managed finally to partially master the technicalities of the whole compression/bandwidth subject with my camera/editor combination, helped by a firmware upgrade on the camera. Also, living in Wales the file sizes are even more of an issue with the relatively slow broadband speeds I enjoy!!! Looking forward to your next ride, we must make the most of the weather and the time of the year, which I enjoy the most. Dorset looks really nice, I watch what Nathan the Postman puts out, and so I see quite a bit of your neck of the woods, although I have been a few times before myself. Keep up the good work.

@@MarkDaleADV Cheers Mark, as ive not seen many of your vids i thought you just did the titles not voice. I did notice the camera picked up the inclines and the sharp drop off to the side of the road, my camera maybe its due to position of POV does not show inclines all looks flat ish. Regarding video editing and files etc i have no clue what iam doing, only recently started on this mission to publish as many vids as i can via youtube as i feel it is the best platform that suits me. I am going to post a short vid of KTT without me speaking just incase this is what people prefer and today i might attempt this big ride to Lyme regis but iam unsure as i have some parts arrived for my Velocette KNS restoration project. As your in Anglesey it looks close to the Isle of man so wondered if your off to the TT ive never been. its on the bucket list. I am supposed to be riding to snowdonia with my mate on his MT-07 so would be kinda close to you but this will likely never happen or be next years as its just a whole day of commitment.

@@velofan. Hi, yes it's pros and cons with camera positioning, I like the camera to be able to see what I see, but it does mean some of the rapid head movements need to be edited out. I watch million dollar bogan who employs a bike mounted(GoPro) camera that he has configured so he can move it around, pointing it forward or back toward him, or carrying it, placing it remote as require, but In think he benefits from having a 250kg plus Harley to use as a stable shooting platform. My Sony XV1000 stabilisation can't quite cope with being handlebar mounted. It is a constant learning process with the tech, and you just have to experiment to find the best solutions. I'm using Davinci Resolve at the moment, which is free, but I feel I may be losing some of my initial video quality because of the limited encoding options. I'm not going this year, but my son has just sent me his password for the TTplus service(live tv coverage), but we went three times during the Guy Martin years, flew and camped twice, and the last time in 2015, I think, we went on 125 trail bikes and did all the Greenway roads, as well as enjoying the racing, what a trip, nothing like experiencing all that with your son🤗 If you want a closer Welsh option, check out the Devil's Staircase, absolutely awesome! Hoping that the Ulster GP recovers from its financial woes, as I would prefer to go there, for obvious reasons.

@@MarkDaleADV I’ve never done Ulster or north west 200. I would have liked to be there during the guy Martin years he has the best personality. My camera is GoPro but not yet done handlebar mounted although I bought the bracket just haven’t figured it out yet and like you say positioning is interesting. So far I’ve stuck with chest mount but I also have a helmet mount just never used it.

Hi Gary, I've put the link in the description now, you can download it from there. Cheers. Please let us know how you get on, thanks.

No, not bad at all, maybe I was a bit unfair shooting on such a windy day, I maybe should of repeated the test to see if I could do better in calmer conditions. I enjoy the process of getting the best out of springers, and finding the best way to shoot them. Thanks for the sub, it's appreciated, I'll have to get back to work on some new videos.

Hi, It is what it is, even though very well put together, the short unrifled(but choked) barrel doesn't produce the goods at more than 15 metres. I've tried several pellets and nothing helps. I've read a few other reviews, and it just seems to be the norm. Having said that, it does make up for it in other ways, being a very fun and compact gun. I've since removed the scope, and fitted a red dot, and this suits its use much better. I'd like to do a close quarters combat type tactical drill with it. Hopefully I'll set something up this year.

Hi there, it won't work on a pc because it's an android app. I could do a spreadsheet in xks format, which is all you really need. Do you use MS Excel or Google sheets?

@@MarkDaleADV Ah it's ok no problem thanks. I was being a bit lazy can sort out S=D/T.

Appreciated, regrettably I'm not getting much time lately for shooting or videos☹

Yes, I know what you mean, they're easy to work on, and give great results. For the money, there's no good reason to get rid! Happy shooting.

Great to hear it worked out for you Peter, and pleased it will prove useful as you continue to tune your rifle.

It appears at 6:48 in the video.
