Turn right and pass through Chepstow and that is my bit of the world. Some cracking rides and scenery in the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. Up the A48, left onto the A40 and head to Ross on Wye and then drop down to Bicknor amd Shortstanding. Right onto the A4136 to Monmouth. Turn left just before the Wye river and then follow it all the way back to Chepstow. Great ride.
Great footage Bruce! Did much the same route last year but in several stints. Lynton.....was actually Lynmouth lol! Lynton is up above Lynmouth...lovely area. Brecons and Snowdonia on a sunny day...some of the best biking roads and views in the UK. Riding from Capel Curig on the A4086 and then the A498 to Garreg was spectacular. There were a few hidden gems paralleling that route on minor roads too. Rained the whole time but still smiled the whole way!
Iv just done north Wales all the roads you rode . I live in Nottinghamshire Derbyshire boarders. So a regular up in the peaks . Your videos have got me planning my next ride . Thinking isles of sky . Great videos pal . One day I'll probably meet you in some cafe 😂 you never know
Great vid as always. I rode the A39 earlier in the month and it definitely brought back some great memories. We stopped in Lynton for a Pasty and a coffee as well. I'm looking forward to seeing the next instalment, keep up the great content pal.
Hi TeaPot. Nice to see these kind of vids again. A friend of mine ask me yesterday "have you seen the vids of that guy" referring to your RTW trip. Answer was "Off course, who hasnt" Just had a little trip around norway myself. Nothing better than riding with friends. Vid will be up soon.
I know all about long days in the saddle in that neck of the woods! Hope you managed to get the drone up whilst you were at it...looking forward to assessing your pilotage skills ;0)
Thanks TP1 for this series - I've only just noticed it and busy catching up. I like to do a fair few miles on my own GS, but I'm in awe of the daily distances you cover! I try to stick to maybe 6-7 hrs max per day. Good on you, thanks again for the effort.
How coincidental, after meeting up with you on the Sunday, I end up spending a night with the garbage run lot at the same accommodation in the north Pennines on the Tuesday! Small world indeed
Yeah I think so. Was a good evening that day. I did join them for a bit of the run; about 5miles worth when they headed towards Scotland on the Wednesday. All very jolly
Great country for bikers, thats the UK , when the weather is good. Just one thing i would like to add. WHY OH WHY IS THE NAME OF ENGLAND, YES , ENGLAND NEVER MENTIONED. I FIND IT INSULTING .
Just discovered your channel via the Shoei review and promptly subscribed. I look forward to watching all your stuff. Just finished going thru Richy Vida's trips so need something new to watch! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice, got to do Wales. Just found this vid after doing the A39 yesterday from Newquay to get the Triumph serviced. Had to go cross country fm Bideford, looks like i missed the best views after Bideford.
Hi. Nice video. Next time in Cornwall go to Lizard Point which is the most southern point. Beautiful there. I live here so my rides take me from central Cornwall down to Lizard point and the further west to Lands End and then St Ives through to the Bude area and then back home across the Bodmin Moor. Not found the Beast of Bodmin yet....
Shame day 2 is missing, I'd be interested to see the rest of the route you took through Wales. I did a trip round the Welsh coast last year (never doing that in February again!) and the A5 coming down out of Snowdonia from Capel Curig towards Bethesda/Bangor was absolutely breathtaking.
@@teapotone UA-cam's copyright system sucks - I've had copyright claims from organisations that don't even own the copyright that they're claiming! Sadly though it's part of the system, we can either get off UA-cam or get on and deal with it :). We do have some amazing scenery here in Wales, I need to get out and explore the roads more often. Your Rever links here will certainly help, so thanks for including those! As luck would have it I suddenly have a free day tomorrow that I didn't expect to have, and I've just cleaned the bike today... :D
I did that bit of road on the a39 on my Teapotone inspired trip I've mentioned before, except on a 125 Exmoor was *quite an experience* ahaha my poor bike nearly exploded up those roads as my maps said go right, off a cliff apparently, so I went left trying to avoid the steep road and ended up having to go up and down much steeper roads in that little village only to loop back around to the road I wanted to avoid - small engine so very little engine braking at that incline and it was brakes all the way down. Worth it for those views though! 2nd gear and barely moving forward, the presence of gravity very much on my mind haha, I thought I was going to fall backwards front wheel over back wheel! Shame I missed you for this one but hopefully our paths will cross in the future
I do miss Wales (I'm from there originally) but now I live in California so it's a tough call!! Love watching you ride through Mach. Have done that so many times and I've always loved it. But in autumn/winter it can get very gnarly!!
Here'a a bike tip from a native West Walian. Best road EVER is Llandovery to Tregaron. It's mostly single track so cars are scared to use it. But If you think you're gonna have room to open up a litre bike, forget it.
Mate you just make me want to grab a tent and go for a ride. Looking at these views reminds me of my flight to NZ when a kindly gentleman told me the country is a bit like Wales, but beautifuller, or some such.
Hi Dude. Thanks for sharing. Did you miss the M48 to Bridgwater section off from your routes mate ? Tryin to follow your route for a group run planning for next year ....
Doing the same next summer but the whole coast of uk. Any tips would be help. This road in Devon was where I was born, south Molton.your making me home sick. Nice way to get outt of herself indoors. Ride safe stay biking.
Hi Ian, If you’re able to take some time when you do it, I’d suggest you do it a lot slower than I did. I only had 4 days to play with so was against the clock, but there is SO much to see around the UK.
Made me excited to pass my test so I can go see more of the country! I could go now but I'd have to leave my gf behind, plus there are many merits and thrills of 125 tour riding (like not being sure if you'll make it up a hill) but I'd like to have a bit more power ;)
i have bought a 2003 anniversary ultra classic it is the mechanics shop getting a thorough check up, and then I am going to do the same here in Mexico. I have to be extremely careful, some areas you do not go. Otto was had a camera on helmet, Can you please tell me what brand it is? I am looking for a camera just like that.
Hi Allan, I think back in the days of this vid, I was using a Drift Ghost-S camera. They don’t make that anymore sadly, but they do still make Drift Ghost cameras - they’re not very good though from my experience, hence why I moved back to GoPro
Do you have a separate web page or something detailing future trips around the UK so I and others could meet you and other like minded people. Thanks RR
Can't believe It . I find your channel today from a recommendation start watching your vids and subscribe because I like em and there I am at 12.38 on a non biking day sat in me car with me head buried in a map. Top biking country Wales with so much more than the obvious and now I found you watch this space for an invite.
Fantastic stuff mate! Very much looking forward to watching the other videos :-) Where abouts was the place where you stopped with the lake just before the road that Top Gear use? Looks superb and want to add it to my riding bucket list! Just goes to show what a stunning country we live in.... Take care mate, Mark
+Biker's Hub Thanks Mark, the scenery only gets better through the other vids, can't wait to get them done and uploaded too. I'm in tour with ChickenStrips at the mo in Spain so have no time to edit this week unfortunately. I'll crack on once I'm back next week. The lake is the Llyn Clywedog Reservoir on the B4518. If you look at the description of the vid there are links to the Rever tracking maps of the roads I used there 👍
Fantastic Video chap. New subscriber here looking forward to atching more of your videos. Happy TheMissendenFlyer recommended you as a UA-camr to watch!
New Orleans, huh. I'm 90 miles away in Baton Rouge. Those guys must have rented Harleys from EagleRider. Hope you had a chance to eat some authentic Cajun food while you were down there, not to be missed!
Yes, it’s just having the time to re-edit it mate. I’m literally working every day at the moment, 12hrs shifts with nearly 3hrs travel every day. I’ve hardly got time to get a new vid out each week, let alone redo an old one I’m afraid. I will get it done when I can though bud, promise you that 👍
+Marc Fulcher Mate I'm trying, but Day 2 of the UK ride is taking forever. Doesn't help that these twats have been trying to blow up London so all my days off are cancelled! Got a day at it today though so hoping to get it live this week 👍
Scrap your appeal to Mrs May! Her Tory-ness will not allow her to see past her nose. But there is cake for you to have... my tip, which until now has been my secret pleasure, is this; Ride when England (or wherever you be) has an important football match - THE ROADS ARE EMPTY! It may only come around every four years, but sometimes produces clusters of increasingly quite riding sessions. Most national matches of importance make our roads noticeably quieter. Another tip if you like night riding, which I do, is the last 3 hours of December 31, on main A roads preferably between large towns and cities - it's very, very quiet. Ideal if you're not into football, or partying! Safe riding :)
Believe this Bruce! I'm a HGV driver and you will not believe how many times I get slowed down by idiots in cars! If its 30 MPH, they'll do 20. If its 40, they'll do 31. People behind me always thinking they're behind a "SLOW" truck. Cars 'try' to over take me and realise there's another 2 cars in front of me, Every chance of a MAJOR pile up! Going slow is AS DANGEROUS as FAST. They don't seem to realise this is in UK. I'm a biker too mate and its shocking to see car drivers man and dare I say the age of car drivers that still think they can drive safely.
Richard Hammond had it right; you can tell a persons driving competance by the car they're in. Some small Korean or suchlike shitbox shows no passion for it. It's just something to get from A to B in. But if you have no passion for what you're doing in a 1 1/2 ton machine then basically you don't care and if you don't care then you're dangerous. ( I know this is a very polarised view though :-D ) You wouldn't be allowed to operate a 1 1/2 ton machine of any other sort without some sort of detailed knowledge of it which in turns means a degree of passion for it. No passion, no licence. I should be Transport Secretary. :-)
6 років тому+1
So why are bmw,s called the ultimate driving machine when the folks who drive them are as far from ultimate drivers as you can get
It would have been much more interesting if you'd actually bothered to mention where you were at certain points. Apart from spotting the odd town name on a road sign, we had no clue where you were. Like the reservoir at 13:51; no attempt made at saying where it is, just your mate acting like a 10 year old. Without reference, it's just an endless video of random roads. A missed opportunity for what could have been a very interesting video.
I’m sorry this didn’t meet your high expectations Jer, and that you’d wasted your hard-earned money paying to view such low-grade nonsense. I’ll check out your channel and see how it should be done 👍
Turn right and pass through Chepstow and that is my bit of the world. Some cracking rides and scenery in the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. Up the A48, left onto the A40 and head to Ross on Wye and then drop down to Bicknor amd Shortstanding. Right onto the A4136 to Monmouth. Turn left just before the Wye river and then follow it all the way back to Chepstow. Great ride.
I like your idea for road use. I will vote for you.
Great footage Bruce! Did much the same route last year but in several stints. Lynton.....was actually Lynmouth lol! Lynton is up above Lynmouth...lovely area.
Brecons and Snowdonia on a sunny day...some of the best biking roads and views in the UK. Riding from Capel Curig on the A4086 and then the A498 to Garreg was spectacular. There were a few hidden gems paralleling that route on minor roads too. Rained the whole time but still smiled the whole way!
Iv just done north Wales all the roads you rode . I live in Nottinghamshire Derbyshire boarders. So a regular up in the peaks . Your videos have got me planning my next ride . Thinking isles of sky . Great videos pal . One day I'll probably meet you in some cafe 😂 you never know
Nice one Dillon, enjoy 👍
Great wee video Bruce, we did Wales last year and covered some of the ground you did, that B4518 is a fantastic road, look forward to day two
Brilliant video. I've seen a lot of Welsh tours recently and WOW, it looks amazing! I also want to do the Wild Atlantic Way.
Thanks bud, aye Wales is a beautiful place and lots of fun on the bike.
I’m heading to Ireland next year, can’t wait 👍
Hay Ya.....Great video....Love the editing....Looking forwarded to the next episodes! Thank you and all the best..
Great Vid Teapot, you can't bet Wales roads love it keep up the good work and get that drone up!!!!!
+Stuart Walker Thanks bud, I'm off to Spain this evening with ChickenStrips so will be testing the drone this week 👍
Great video! really enjoyed watching. Look forward to watching part 2 when i get chance!
Great vid as always. I rode the A39 earlier in the month and it definitely brought back some great memories. We stopped in Lynton for a Pasty and a coffee as well. I'm looking forward to seeing the next instalment, keep up the great content pal.

Fantastic video again sir, Wales for my next weekend away!
+Mark Kennedy As long as it stays dry, it's a fantastic place to ride 👍
I've got to do Wales again soon - Nice ride Bruce, hats off to you and fabulous bit of filming- 12 hours in the saddle...looong day!
+TheMissendenFlyer Thanks Andy, wait until the Scottish vid - nearly 17hrs in the saddle that day! But the GS was awesome 👍
I know all about long days in the saddle in that neck of the woods! Hope you managed to get the drone up whilst you were at it...looking forward to assessing your pilotage skills ;0)
+TheMissendenFlyer Ha Ha, yeah I got the drone up in Glencoe at least 👍

“All the way around the world on a gixxer....” and that in itself was so impressive!
Cracking roads, and on yer doorstep. Like you say, if only we had the weather!
How coincidental, after meeting up with you on the Sunday, I end up spending a night with the garbage run lot at the same accommodation in the north Pennines on the Tuesday! Small world indeed
+LammyIOW Ah nice one, think they reach the top today 👍
Yeah I think so. Was a good evening that day. I did join them for a bit of the run; about 5miles worth when they headed towards Scotland on the Wednesday. All very jolly
Nice to see you venturing into my old homeland of Mid Wales mate. Regards from Melbourne.
Cheers Craig,
It’s a beautiful place, even in the rain! 😉👍
great video I’ve just done all uk coast in 27 days about 3800 miles this country is so good scotland is the best part
+Kate Clapperton Great stuff Kate, it really is a beautiful land isn't it👍
Great country for bikers, thats the UK , when the weather is good. Just one thing i would like to add. WHY OH WHY IS THE NAME OF ENGLAND, YES , ENGLAND NEVER MENTIONED. I FIND IT INSULTING .

great proposal to Mrs May, that would be fab... also oder the good weather too!
Gets my vote!
Nice video. Now to watch episode 2 !
Nice, got to do Wales. Just found this vid after doing the A39 yesterday from Newquay to get the Triumph serviced. Had to go cross country fm Bideford, looks like i missed the best views after Bideford.
Ah that’s a shame, it’s a stonking wee road after Barnstaple, the stretch from Lynton to Minehead across Exmoor is great fun 👍
teapotone might have to take a day out and do the whole stretch, or a weekend and do Wales/Snowdonia bit too, on to vid 2 spectacular!
Great Vid Bruce, cheers for sharing! Jonno
+B Johnson Pleasure Jonno 👍
Really great Bruce, been Linton with the Mrs it's very nice indeed
Cheers Chops, aye it’s a lovely part of the country 👍
More like a Messerschmitt than a Spitfire old bean... 😁
This looks like a good series, busy catching up.
Ridden the A39 from Wadebridge all the way back to Minehead and vice versa . Cracking road on any bike 👍👍
Aye it’s a lot of fun, love the stretch up the cliff along the coastline, then across the moors 👍
Hi. Nice video. Next time in Cornwall go to Lizard Point which is the most southern point. Beautiful there. I live here so my rides take me from central Cornwall down to Lizard point and the further west to Lands End and then St Ives through to the Bude area and then back home across the Bodmin Moor.

"all the idiots would be gone" priceless.... Cheers.

You were 1/2 a mile from me passed Wadebridge. A39 in the dry oh what fun.

None the less.. top notch!
Aye from what I remember they are particularly savage in this vid, but jump cuts are just my style of vid Paul I’m afraid 🤷♂️👍

Still thoroughly enjoyed. Keep em up!

Did you miss the M48 to Bridgwater section off from your routes mate ?
Tryin to follow your route for a group run planning for next year ....
Yes mate it must have missed it off sorry
As a 17 yro who is getting into bikes. I cannot wait to get my 125 sorted
The A39 is my play road on my speed triple 😊
It’s a LOT of fun isn’t it 👍
Wouldn't mind getting on a Bike on just away I go. Looks proper nice that.
Best way to travel bud 👍
Doing the same next summer but the whole coast of uk. Any tips would be help. This road in Devon was where I was born, south Molton.your making me home sick. Nice way to get outt of herself indoors. Ride safe stay biking.

Wales and Scotland are just brilliant on the bike, you’ll love it 👍

The lake is the Llyn Clywedog Reservoir on the B4518. If you look at the description of the vid there are links to the Rever tracking maps of the roads I used there 👍
Thanks buddy :-) Sounds great mate, enjoy your tour! Will keep my eyes peeled for your uploads when you get round to it :-) Ride safe mate
Biker's Hub the lake was Clywedog Resivoir. It’s near inbetween Llanidloes and Machynlleth in Wales up at Dylife.
Biker's Hub and also just realised that Mark already said
Is it me or where did day 2 go? I can't find it! 😁 Loving it! "Look at that" can you watch too much UA-cam?
Seems they copyrighted part 2 due to a song I used 🥺
I'm having a proper laugh when you call the cyclists maniacs :D Reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson :D
No route in description?
5:50 - "mrs May for quite some time".... that commentary hasn't aged well

Loved the place 👍
Great ride love the content however if you want to impress me ride around Australia in a day or even just Queensland lol.
I rode across the top of Oz when it was 50+ degrees.
In a leather suit 😉
were did day 2 disappear to
They copyright struck it as someone has put a claim in for the apparently ‘copyright free’ music track I used?
some right dickheads about Bruce, can you not redo it with different music and re-upload it?
Yes, it’s just having the time to re-edit it mate. I’m literally working every day at the moment, 12hrs shifts with nearly 3hrs travel every day. I’ve hardly got time to get a new vid out each week, let alone redo an old one I’m afraid.

I'm a biker too mate and its shocking to see car drivers man and dare I say the age of car drivers that still think they can drive safely.
Aye it must be incredibly frustrating for you truckers bud!!
Car drivers have as much right as you have to drive these roads. So gie it a brek
Yawwwwwwnnnnnnnnnn
Richard Hammond had it right; you can tell a persons driving competance by the car they're in.
Some small Korean or suchlike shitbox shows no passion for it.
It's just something to get from A to B in.
But if you have no passion for what you're doing in a 1 1/2 ton machine then basically you don't care and if you don't care then you're dangerous. ( I know this is a very polarised view though :-D )
You wouldn't be allowed to operate a 1 1/2 ton machine of any other sort without some sort of detailed knowledge of it which in turns means a degree of passion for it.
No passion, no licence.
I should be Transport Secretary. :-)
So why are bmw,s called the ultimate driving machine when the folks who drive them are as far from ultimate drivers as you can get
It would have been much more interesting if you'd actually bothered to mention where you were at certain points. Apart from spotting the odd town name on a road sign, we had no clue where you were. Like the reservoir at 13:51; no attempt made at saying where it is, just your mate acting like a 10 year old. Without reference, it's just an endless video of random roads. A missed opportunity for what could have been a very interesting video.
I’m sorry this didn’t meet your high expectations Jer, and that you’d wasted your hard-earned money paying to view such low-grade nonsense.
I’ll check out your channel and see how it should be done 👍
@@teapotone Apology accepted! 🤣🤣
I prefer my car, nice and warm in Winter.
Video quality terrible, too many cuts and speed ups not good watching.
