    My 1st Vlog of yours I’ve seen…sent it to my daughter who is just starting to ride…wanted her to see the real beauty and nature of motorcycle adventures. The solitude and joy of back country, as you display, is the essence of motorcycle touring. Thank you for this experience!

    Years ago, (about '90 ?) I entered Wales, from the motorway to go towards the Swansea area, It started to rain,
    THREE DAYS LATER. lol,
    I rode back into 'England', & as if a switch had been flicked, The Sun came out & it stopped raining.
    But, ! I had a great time, a beautiful trip. 👍
    Terrific vids' Keep 'em coming, Thanks.🙂

    As a motorbike rider /traveler I recognise so many feelings that you have during a trip, like the doubts to what direction, the fatigue after a day riding etc....... What I learn from you is to live more in the moment. You see the beauty in everything and thats great. 👍

    A favourite day trip on the bike takes me from Bristol over the Severn bridge to my home country, then a loop via Usk, Llanthony Priory, Gospel Pass, Hay on Wye, Builth Wells, Beulah, Abergwesyn, Devil's Staircase, Llyn Brianne, Llandovery, a break at the Owl's Nest, over the Black Mountain Road and back to Llandovery, along the A40 to Abergavenny, back roads to the Wye Valley, Tintern Abbey, and back over the bridge. Good to see you enjoying some of my favourite roads, even if the weather wasn't the best.

There was room for one car at a time to go through the road works. We then continued passed The Skirrid Pub, supposed to be one of the most haunted places in Wales. Keep the content coming, PLEASE.
