    Greetings from Canada! First of all, we have to compliment you on the quality of the videos. The scripts flow naturally and the video work is very good, so we are happy subscribers. Secondly, with the GCN connection hosting cyclocross events on a regular basis seems like an obvious business opportunity as there is a built-in fan base already. And lastly, but most important, we wish James (aka Hank/Jimbo) and Emma a wonderful wedding tomorrow and a happy life together. Oh, and we were disappointed that the bicycle was not ridden back into the house at the end!

    Great video James, hope to visit again next year, I have been a couple of times, the first time I met your grandfather, he showed us the church and last time your Aunt Caroline showed us around. I look forward to trying the new Cafe in the Barn. Have a great wedding day tomorrow. Chavenage is in good hahds with you and Emma.

    How freaky, I visited that church for the very first time last Thursday while they were preparing for the Christmas music night the following evening. What an incredible setting for a wedding! I just hope it's dry for you and the paving isn't like a skating rink. I'm thoroughly enjoying these videos and bravo for getting the bike out in this one. Here's wishing you both many happy returns.

    These videos are brilliant! Riding in the house was completely bonkers (as was the GCN penny farthing adventure); loved every moment of it! Looks like you have great neighbors that won't be running amok or partying through the night as well. The history of your estate is fascinating (as Emma says, it's older than America, lol) and your wedding chapel is amazing. Looking forward to the next installment and footage from your wedding and reception! Cheers!

    So, how many times did your Grannie tell you, "No bicycles in the house!". LOL. This is the sort of tour that might have been conducted on horseback, but you are you, and don't shy away from the wet and muck. Good humor, and amazing neighbors. His Majesty can probably recommend someone great to help with your formal gardens when you are ready. A really interesting collection of historical locations, which will be fun to revisit in future videos. I'm sure Emma is happy you didn't wipe out the day before your wedding, with a black eye or such documented in the photos. Cheers, and congratulations!

    Watching these videos it is so cool to see your behind the scenes tour.. especially on the bike! It makes me wonder what all the other GCN folk do in their non presenting time, I don’t think I’ve noticed you talking about your manorial home there! So cool that you’re both enacting a new vision for such a historic place. That grain barn.. maybe you could make branded flour or convert it into another cafe/ bike repair and hire stop?!? Good luck with all the events.. and 9:46 if you’re both married by the time you see this CONGRATS you two lovely people 🎉

    How about Canyon sends Tiffany Cromwell and Valtteri Bottas to The Manor to assist with planning a cyclocross event? And turn the barn into "Lowgrove", where bramble berries and bees on the estate can give you fruit preserves and honey to sell to visitors? Perhaps some grain crops worthy of on-site milled flours and breads? You may have more options than growing weed in the bunker... and by the way, CONGRATULATIONS on your marriage! Happy Holidays. Cheers!

    Italian barn as an airbnb or cool wood fire pizza lunch spot. You could also rent the hangar to a few selected flight aficionados, and if you don’t have them already get some horses for horseback riding weekend stay tours. Visitors could sleep at the estate or in the outbuildings.
