Searching for a phallic symbol down a green lane in France
A great ride out to the Valley of the Saints in Brittany, France and I try to find an ancient fertility stone, riding off the beaten track, on my Royal Enfield Himalayan and encounter some very naughty dogs who decide to christen The Patron Saint of Bikers! And, let’s be honest, you know I'm too old and knackered for green laning. But, I'm not one for sensible...

    I’m coming back to motorcycles after a 20 year layoff and all I’ve really been looking for is our nostalgic ride…. Well, that was the original remit anyway….. I just wanted a chrome retro and a 500 thudder…. But in the last year of looking I have pinged all over the place…. 350 Royal Enfield, Himalayan 411, interceptor, Moto Guzzi V7 850, BSA 650 gold star, and others to boot…. And then I decide I will settle for a 350 plodder, but then my mind goes around and around again…. But what I do like is the fact that you don’t go on about your Himalayan 411, just get out there and ride it and I like that… it’s the best review really without actually reviewing and all the excess that goes with that… really pleased to see you and your friends having such fun….. and seeing the Moto Bretange Classic rally really brought back fantastic sensory memories of the Isle of Man, Kent custom bike rallies, and many other events from the 70s and early 80s…. And even touring in France on my old BMW R80/7 which I still have got…. thoroughly enjoyed the film and I want to go to that show next year as well…. Ride Safe and have lots of fun. Thank you, John

Good luck with your 350, I’ve rode one myself, great bike. May see you next year in France for the Bretagne classic 😊

    Hiya iv'e just discovered you and it is great in fact being a Bradford lad living in Hastings East Sussex for the last 30-odd years it's bloody brilliant. Skipton Whitby Scarborough and anywhere around the Dales and the Lake District are my fave places many a good time blasting around on my Fizza back in 1982 then once passing me test and the traditional ceremony of the burning or tearing up of the l plates done and going from a Yamaha R D 125 lc to a Honda CB 750 F2 of 1976 vintage well nothing stopped me. Many bikes later and at the young age of 58 I love bikes and the bikeing scene as much as when I was sixteen on my Yamaha FS1E purple popsicle. Keep up the good work lass and long distance huggs from Matt n Mandy.

The only downside for me is how short 1st gear is and the overall lack of power in 1st/2nd but maybe I am just too impatient and to be fair it's also what makes it easy to manoeuvre at slow speed so yeah it is what it is.
