That really is an amazing town, it must have been a shock returning home to Essex. Thank you Mark and Lisa for keeping me entertained on a cold November's evening. Many thanks.
Superb!👌 We are currently in Mojacar and went up to Seville over the weekend. What a stunningly beautiful city. We decided not to visit El Rocio but it’s on the list for next time. We visited Ronda a couple of years ago and it’s yet another stunning place. We arrived on the eve of a fiesta. The costumes were authentic, the horses were dressed too and authentic black powder blunderbuss were blasting into the air. The percussion was enormous! Alarms were going off across the city. Spain has culture, it has community and it has huge respect for traditions. Where did we go wrong? We have been here over All Saints’ Day and the cemetery in our village was festooned with flowers and visitors came in from all over to pay their respects to their ancestors. Their attitudes are humbling and my heart hurts for those poor people in Valencia.
@@spudgunson wow sounds like you having a blast ! That festival sounds so good! I’d love to be in Ronda at a fiesta , just wow . I was shocked my friend sent me a video of the water fall below Ronda bridge a couple days ago and it was enormous brown flood type waterfall bursting out , I don’t know how the bridge was still standing. What they are going through is awful . Best wishes for the rest of your trip
@@glasgowharleyrider True that ! Yeah I hope they escaped too, there is a lot of marsh land surrounding town , it was dried up when we was there , but I’ve seen photos of it full of water . Thanks Paul . Best wishes
Smashing little film, the drone footage is beautiful but almost looked out of place in that location (1920s look) they say that all roads lead to home and I agree that it would be a great place to call home!.safe travels Mark and Lisa 🤟 keep your knees in the breeze and the rubber side down 👍✌️❤️🌞 Thanks for sharing 😎
@@markshawreflections850 Yeah I get what you mean about the drone , but I had to see it . For Spain that place is super expensive, but I guess if you are into horses what a place for holiday home . I can only imagine that had pushed prices sky high . Happy safe travels Mark Many thanks 🙏
I think you needed to book an early morning pony and trap Lisa, to take you to the edge of town and Mark. Think the bee was also having a laugh, it thought this guy hanging out in the wind was no Challenge, but you on the other hand, just cracking open the visor for a few seconds 😁.
Hey guys ,, great vid, so sorry to see Lisa with that eye, wot back luck eh,,,, bless her,, When u was battling the sand within the village I keep thinking Clint Eastwood would appear wearing his poncho lol Ride safe guys, Biker to biker 👍
@@richcolgate8929 ah was very unlucky , but that’s what she gets for wearing full face lid ! Clint , haha … we see him later in the trip … Best wishes dude
The title of this video is very interesting to me. Several years ago I traded in my harley-davidson for a GS1200. Absolutely the biggest mistake I've made with motorcycles! Sold the BM after six months and went back to "cruisers"
@@superglide6680 I was just getting to the point of ‘every’ motorcycle is an adventure motorcycle. I’m sure they are great motorcycles if that’s your thing . We all like different things . In the right hands a GS can really be a beast . But I reckon a lot of them don’t ever don’t much off roading . A bit like all the 4x4 jeeps parked outside coffee shops in town . What made you switch back so quick ? Just missed the Harley or disliked the GS ?
@LeanIntoTheWind Well, firstly am a short arse. First time in 35 years I fell off at a standstill putting my foot down. That was in the first two days of ownership! In the second week, like all GS motorcycles, it broke down (wait for hate mail coming!). The big bastard was fast and every run included 100 mph blasts everywhere. It was a pig to move around because of the height. I've always done my own maintenance and the canbus electrical system almost eliminates that. So, too big, too fast(!), too flimsy, too complicated. That adds up to being too stressful. I missed the laid back riding style. I've now got a 1999 Triumph Adventurer and a 1996 Hond VT600. Believe it or not that wee Honda is a great bike. I keep looking at getting another H-D but the weight is putting me off. 🤷
Another cracking video! What a place, so unique! Luckily, Lisa has a great sense of humour. 😁The roads look so quiet in that part of Spain too. Looking forward to the next episode. Oh and I've just noticed that I have never seen you wearing sunglasses in any of your videos but it's Lisa that gets whacked in the eye...
Cheers mate ! Yeah she has her witty moments , they few and far between.. but if you wait around long enough … !! Yeah if the bees and wasps see you have no glasses they go on to the next person.
Had a short lunch today only got to watch half, finished rest when I got home!! Look forward to the masterpieces every week! I rode in to work this morning 31 degrees Fahrenheit (don't know what that is for you) but I know every year this is the season I start to see less and less bikes...its only gonna get colder here in Virginia but no bother, it was nice to see you riding in the sun with short sleeves...I'm already looking forward to spring 😂
@LeanIntoTheWind of course 32 to 0 Celsius, what was i thinking? lol, that's probably the only temp I do know (must have been really tired). Ride to work is an hour each way, not too bad! Alright, be safe! Catch on the next one. 🤘
You two definitely live it for real. Poor Lisa getting stung and earlier on you getting food poisoning. Hope you both recovered well. I enjoy your vids, help me relax. Motivation too for me to plan my next motocamp. Hopefully off to Wales with a mate next year ( through the Elan Valley - think that is how it is spelt). Keep them coming, Love them.
Thank you - so bloody painful , took a week to go down- so annoying as I always where a full face helmet but just lifted up the visor to say something to mark 😢
What a wonderful video! I don't think I'll take my Rocket down there, Tiger gets the nod. Can't to experience it! I'll make sure I spend a couple of nights there and join the party. Oh, and the flamenco dancing in Seville.
nother great video thanks for sharing with us and hope lisa's eye got better(funny story now but not at time i was riding along with visor down somehow a bee got up under my helmet through neck and started flying n buzzing bout in front of my eyes n it was getting angry cause it trapped n i couldn't get visor open quick enough passers by must of thought i had lost plot)i see you ground a nice cup of coffee at end of day can't beat self ground
@@hobbs7ly oh mate that sounds hideous not hilarious… I had one on the day of my motorcycle test , never pulled over so fast . Was plenty of good coffee on this trip ! Best wishes
Love you guys, your vlogs are amazing ! But you ride without eye protection! All it takes is a heavy bug at speed in your eye. It kills your vision. A friend lost his sight. Wish you both all the best 🙏
@@MarkOrmonde-Dibbin Thank you 🙏. Sorry to hear bout your friends eye .. I’ve had a few black eyes from bees etc but guess been lucky . I must try harder to wear glasses , I just don’t get on with them .
@@LisaSchubert13the mad thing is I made the comment before I watched the bee incident . Need to protect your eyes the most is what I’ve learnt. Love what you both do. Take care babe x
@@robertdaley1194 hahaha ouch ! Bet that was a sight !! Lucky it was Lisa , I’m allergic, I get to go to hospital when I get stung . Only once on the eye and my eye was so swollen it was gone under skin.
Did you fill up with high octain petrole to set the bikes computer straight again? Theres no such thing that a gs1250 is a upgrade . 😂 enjoying the vids.
@@grumpopzijnmashfifty3109 haha ! Tbh all the adventure bikes were parked in the car park by the tarmac road . We missed it on the way in , but on the way out of town noticed about 15 bikes all in a car park on outskirts .
Man I don’t know how you both don’t ride with glasses (safety but styled) with open face or with a full and visor down. Your eyes are too important to not take care of them. Insect strike in Australia is a big problem year round maybe not in UK or Europe
@@scottrubie6826 Lisa has her visor down 99% of the time , but I think after the bee sting on eye , she will have her glasses on now . I’ve had a couple of black eyes from bee hitting me over the years . But nothing worse . I reckon we have smaller insects , you guys have giant everything down there . I’ve just never got on with sun glasses on or off the bike . Very rare I wear them
@ open face I ride with a clear pair of these or my spectacles(old word for you 😂😂😂) or same behind a tinted screen on my full face. Even just when it’s dusty and windy blowing shit around. 2 layers of protection. Love the content though whether it’s you solo or with Lisa. Keep charging on with your monologue’s and when you crack out the guitar bloody awesome.
@LisaSchubert13 sad to see you get struck. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the trials and tribulations of your amazing trip through Spain. Nothing else surely could go wrong rain sick sand bee sting.
Now that’s the lifestyle I need. Brilliant 👍🏴🏴🏴
Cheers for watching!
