Jon is loving his little Himalayan. I was debating it but i love the all round of the GS...just not so much the weight 😂

I would love to have a smaller bike. Can't afford one though so I make do with what I've got and I enjoy it. What big bike did you end up getting after? Or did you transition through from a light bike to mid then on to a bigger bike?

Thanks for watching. I would like to have a smaller bike to try this out and compare both but financially, that's not possible. Big bikes are more than capable of riding on these lanes. It's the skill and confidence of the rider which is the issue. One day my skill level will be a lot better than what it is currently as every time I venture out, I learn more about the bike and myself. The other issue is that this is my only transport so if I break it then I can't get to work. One day I will hopefully have something else to use along side. Once again, thanks for watching and commenting. Ride safe ✌️

@@thechunkybiker6944 I hope you don't crash your only bike on these lanes before you have learned to ride.

Ride the lanes or ride the bike? I think I'm oki at both

Hi Ray. Thank you for taking the time to watch. We certainly do enjoy a challenge and the good news is I have a new Comms set up which records Mesh talk really well so you will seen hopefully be able to listen to the absolute shite we talk about on the way round. I was looking at the Carpurid a few weeks ago. I'm debating is and hopefully I can link my drone to it and then strap the controller to my bike so we can try and get some drone footage too. That could be a good future plan. Well done on the trip to Portugal, that must have been an amazing ride. A group of us may possibly taking a trip to the Pyrenees next year so I want to get everything boxed off for that trip so I can document it as much as possible. Thanks again for watching and ride safe ✌️

Thank you for watching. It's nice to have positive feedback. My bike usually likes to have a nap when we go off tarmac 😂. Safe riding, love your videos 😁

The full trail we planned as well as what we actually did are on my Wikiloc page. Happy riding 😄

We will don't worry 👍

Huffing and puffing like an overloaded steam train up an incline.

Comes with being a chunky that pal

I dont have the exact coordinates for it but heres the link to an artical in ABR magazine which gives all the details on how to get there. I will also in future be recording any routes on Wikiloc. So that will make it easier to share and people can add me on there and follow my routes. www.adventurebikerider.com/article/uk-green-laning-lancashire-and-north-wales/

@thechunkybiker6944 great thanks for the link

Thank you for watching. It's my phone on a quadlock wireless charger using DMD2, which you can get from google Play Store or apple Store. It has a tone of features and can be customised to what you want by adding app widgets and maps, etc. Then i use the carpe Iter bmw controls so i can use my phone with the Wonder Wheel and added buttons on my handle bars. DMD2 is something I've only just started dabbing with, but it seems very good so far, but there are a few bits where you have to pay extra to get full functionality, which im contemplating doing

@@thechunkybiker6944 sounds good! Will definitively give a try to DMD2 app. Thank you for sharing ! Ride safe ✌️

@@Rusureabouthat trying to defy a rugged environment 😂👍

But it's fun trying 😜

Thank you for taking the time to watch. I tend do not go out on lanes on my own now for just that reason. Way to heavy. I've not been on a light weight bike since I was a kid so I can remember any different. I would like to try a light weight bike, but I fear it would lead to the wife shouting at me, when she sees another bike in the garage 😂.

@@thechunkybiker6944 It looks like you haven't been on any bike since you were a kid. The R1200GS can be a bit intimidating if you don't have a lot of experience. You could sell it and buy a smaller motorcycle. Then buy something nice for your wife or take her on a holiday for some of the money you have left.

I've only been doing a bit off road riding for around 2 years. Every time I go out I'm learning more and more and getting more confident. As for selling my bike, that's not gonna happen! Thanks for watching, ride safe ✌️

Thank you 👍

🤣🤣🤣

That definitely explains the interesting layout of the road, if fire fighting equipment was brought in. Definitely something new learnt there 👍
