Sorry for your loss man, this was a sweet video you even passed my old home in carrickfergus and eased a bit anxiety with boarding ferries on the bike. I'm planning a trip to London this next summer to catch up with an old mate so it's nice to see I won't be stuck in a tin can floating across the sea lol
So sorry for your loss. Just found your channel a few days ago, your videos are fantastic. Hopefully see you on the roads around Essex, I’ll be sure to give you a nod
Subscribed. Glad to have found your channel. I’m from the same part of the world and I was reeled in by views of Brown’s Bay. I’ve now enjoyed some of your back catalogue and the narrated personal philosophies. I laughed at the cacophony of car alarms on the rear deck. Having done the Belfast/Birkenhead run several times, and despite the repeated announcements by staff car alarms are left on and begin sounding as the ship makes its first turn from the quay - not great on a night crossing when you’re in a cabin close to the rear deck. Agree too with your comments on the attention to detail by the loading crew. When I travel by scooter securing my Vespa requires the strap being across the seat and the crew are always extra careful not to allow the strap metalwork to touch the side panels. Condolences on the loss of your friend. Ride safe.
What a great video but sad aswell sorry to the family for there loss and to you for being a best mate of yours I take it he was a soldier and like all of you have some terrible times in the army and you never know when your times up but just hope he’s at rest now take care mate ride safe
To the Family and Friends, Sorry for your loss 😞. I enjoy all your VL's and most of all I do like listening to you talk. You make sense. Take care, sad loss for you. We have had a good friend pass over yesterday, Sad time. But will have a pint and a ride on the bike for him.
Watching all your vids, loving the content lad. Was at Sherms service. Had a good send off mate, the usual characters there giving it hell. done it properly.
Sorry for your loss, I recognised the brownsbay clip right away and I take it you originally an islandmagee native, I'm from whiteabbey and spent so much time around portmuck and the likes fishing and on bikes, wonderful vlog and really got me emotional too, I too am a long way from home and it was fantastic to see home again, thank you
@@bikeroffthebeatentrack I'm living in Burnley Lancashire for 20 years or so, have family in glengormley, whiteabbey being my home town, born in Carrickfergus, spent many years in Whitehead and in millbay, seems like I was back on my biking roads by watching your videos, wonderful content and editing, cheers again Robert
Good morning. Sorry about the loss if your friend, life always seems to throw a curve ball. That said, I've watched quite a few of your videos, if not all, I loved the Belfast tour vid, I actually got so drunk in the Crown pub opposite the Europa hotel that I couldn't get out of the stalls, people must of thought I was an idiot 😀 😅, i certainly felt like one lol. Thanks for sharing and see you on your next adventure ✌️ 🤙 🤟 R.I.P. Richard Appleby 🫂💙
I hope the tv in the lounge was silent with WiFi sound only, how on earth could you sleep with a tv blaring? Why do Harley riders love having numerous chains draping from clothing?
@@bikeroffthebeatentrack All is explained, I would need to be paid £25 to use lounge if TV blaring, especially if Sky news is the chosen channel, torture on a repeat loop. Bbc news not much better. Silent adult motorist’s lounge worth paying the extra. I lost a coin wallet, presumably down the side of a Stena lounge seat, discovered on arrival home, could have done with a chain! Contacted Stena, of course not found, 50+€ lost. Might have been worse if I lost wallet, would look strange as a car driver with wallet chain more of a Harley thing.

Sorry for your loss. Great video. Goldtop gloves?
Yeah. Goldtop. Really good quality 👍
Yep.
One man's bigotry is another man's family's survival.
I hope the tv in the lounge was silent with WiFi sound only, how on earth could you sleep with a tv blaring? Why do Harley riders love having numerous chains draping from clothing?
Yep it was silent (and no under 16s permitted). And I wear bike jeans without zip pockets so I have key chains for keys and wallet 👍
