@cargy930 I enjoyed cycling through these two villages. That leaves Middle and Steeple Claydon left.

@@KarlVaughan That gives you a 50-50 chance of working out my fave then 😁(You probably won't get this, I'm only allowed one com per vid).

@chrisbeck6722 I don't know really, is there much to see?

The Amersham one is near me but it’s so well screened you can’t see anything. Just a thought.

@chrisbeck6722 I'll be up that way at some point. I have the Quainton section to do first which I might do next week. I'm keeping an eye on the weather.

@chrisbeck6722 Cheers. I bought the mic a couple of months ago. It's worthwhile adding a bit more to drone videos as they can be hard to follow and quite boring sometimes.

@stephenbrand5779 My aim is to promote the idea that cyclists aren't all bad. I see so many examples of terrible behaviour by prominent UA-camrs. They look for trouble all the time and it's really irritating. Most of the time I find drivers are pretty good. On lanes like those in the video you have to be accommodating. It's just the right thing to do as far as I'm concerned. And yes, my bike is filthy!

@mikegriffin4657 Thanks for watching.

@johnmay2786 Dogs can be a problem sometimes, or any animal that dashes out all of a sudden. It's worse when you're in your own little world on a quiet lane and a pheasant comes screaming out. Heart failure time!

@Ngamer834 My experience with drivers is usually pretty good. I've done some really long rides in the last few months and have only encountered bad drivers once in a while. On some rides nothing happens at all. I also thanks any good drivers by putting my hand up.

@@KarlVaughan They're mostly impatient around my way

@cargy930 This was quite unusual to see so many vehicles. Normally these roads are not used that often.

@bikeman123 Yeah, that was stupid as I was just about to go on the cyclepath. He probably meant the one on the opposite side of the road but that doesn't go where I want so that's why I was still on the road at that point.

@Seringapatam Thanks. Yes, I know what you mean about other videos out there. A lot of them just fly over something without giving any information. It's rather pointless doing that unless the viewer is familiar with what they're seeing.

@tomatoes3 I thought they dealt with it pretty well. They were there some time after the fire had burnt out, just to be on the safe side but it was all over in about 15 minutes.

Most of what you see will be returned to nature, probably more bio diverse than the mostly mono crop farmland that was there before. In many cases it's being used for temporary spoil storage, saving having to move it on public roads, rather they can use the trace to move it as it becomes available.

@TonyAbbeyFETraining Thanks, it was good to revisit the area.

It will be, once the top deck is installed.

@cargy930 It was my shoes that got the dirtiest. I had cleaned them before leaving the house!

@@KarlVaughan Always the way! :)

Thanks for this Karl. Your commentary makes your videos much more interesting than the others! Looking forward to another update of this section soon. There is some interesting engineering there!

@Michael-61-n3l Thanks for watching. I'm not yet sure about Small Dean Viaduct, at least being close to it on the ground as it goes over that busy A413 and there aren't any cycleways along there.

@christinakokis5926 This is a fairly common thing where people point out that I missed a certain part of a village. It's not on purpose. Granborough was the last village I did on that day and I had been shooting elsewhere which used up battery power. I didn't want to risk flying for too long which is why I briefly showed Green End.

@matthewclifton9145 Oh no! Something I can't change. Thanks for watching.

That would add 8 years to the programme. But it would be a good idea.

@norfolks123 It's a Mini 4 Pro.

@@KarlVaughanthanks. I’ve just got a mini 3 myself but haven’t flown it as high yet as you yet. Great videos

@norfolks123 I think I had that drone before this one. As soon as the Mini 4 was announced I ordered it straight away. The main feature for me is waypoints which allows you to create flight paths. As I revisit particular places I just load them up and press start. It records exactly the same shots every time. As for the height I go to (which is just under 120m), I like to keep a distance from people, particularly when I fly over quiet villages. I think DJI are bringing the next model in the series so the Mini 4 should come down in price.

@cargy930 I suppose it all looks different from the air. I still have more to edit so keep watching :)

@@KarlVaughan It wasn't a criticism bud. The video's great, I'm just cussing out my lack of memory. :D

@cargy930 I'll be interested to see if the tree needed to be cut down. I know there is an access road being put it near that spot for a transformer station.

@@KarlVaughan They'd only get slapped wristies if they made a mistake like that anyway. It's sad that things are this way, but it's what happens when big devlopments and Gov contracts are involved. HNY bud.

@chrisbailiss7309 I think they painted the line so that drivers can see the division between road and pathway. Regarding mixed use paths such as this one, in Aylesbury there is quite a variety of different finishes. There are ones with the reddish tarmac and some with black tarmac. Some are divided into pedestrian on one side and cycleway on the other and that is usually a different colour. In this case though we've got the bare minimum. It's wide enough to be divided but instead we just have to use our own judgement when passing pedestrians, which I'm very much used to. It's not a problem for me as I'm always cautious.

@chrisbailiss7309 Yes - well spotted! I've amended it :)

@sota_59 Finland, wow. Most of my views are from the UK so it's nice to hear from you. What we see at moment on that new bridge and the land next to it is not how it will be forever. Trees and shrubs will be planted soon so that will soften the appearance eventually. That won't help to make the path feel safer on the bridge though as that will remain exposed, apart from the opposite where grass will be planted.

@slewisedwards Cheers, yes it's a vast area they've used for that solar farm. As for SEALR, I can do some of it but part of it lies within the no-fly zone of Halton airfield so it's not possible without permission.

Having walked a dog down this new road from the bugle horn. The only time I felt a risk of coming into contact with vehicles as pedestrian or cyclist, was on the bridge. That said maybe there should something more than a white line on the bridge section would be more appropriate.

Easy to claim on social media they "unlawfully" did something, but the reality is they will have done everything to the letter of the law.

@Polarbear1-b6j They blocked a group of badger sets so large they could be seen on Google earth. The mitigation set provided was tiny and in waterlogged ground. The largest set is now under one of the largest earthworks. Their environmental mitigation is appalling, not just my opinion but also of the wildlife trusts.

And yet none of these sorts of claims ever seem to survive actual scrutiny. And the various environmental organisations have harmed themselves with hyperbole like the infamous Woodland Trust 108 woods claim, quickly debunked. One wood for example being the other side of a major road and existing railway line. A badger set visible on Google Earth, hyperbole indeed.

@dominiccottrill2387 Thanks for watching. I will do that section properly in due course. I have actually been up there recently. The video can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/Oi4e7ACmSsE/v-deo.html

@SWRural-fk2ub Absolutely not :)

I think the music fits brilliantly, really makes it artistically enjoyable as well as educational.

@slewisedwards Thanks for that. How are my sound levels? I'm not sure if they balance ok.

@@KarlVaughan Seems absolutely spot on to me !!

@@SWRural-fk2ub Or you can use your volume control?

@SteveTheTechy I've actually done my flight plans for Quainton and a bit further towards Calvert. I think I will need to do two separate trips for the whole area as it covers a lot of miles. Also, finding spots to fly from that are near the subjects is the challenge. I'll work something out. I will do Quainton sometime in January.
