Although I appreciate the effort and the technical expertise that goes into these kind of videos , I have be honest and say that I just can't see the point . As the title states it's a guy on a bike riding competently down some unremarkable roads while talking about it . I suppose it's because I've already seen several hundred thousand miles of this stuff . The only difference being that I was watching it live while operating a motorcycle .

The latest video is good! There's a face-palm moment then a teeth dryer, then a lol at how it made it all okay.

I get that. I like doing it, though, so I'm going to keep on making them :thumb:

I've already ordered one, Geoff. Oh, and JUST back from the TZ ride-out... more than 8 hours after setting off, so I'm cream crackered.

I like them.

Bike vids without crashes are good background while doing boring jobs and LTF doesn’t have an annoying voice or awful sound quality like a lot of them. :thumb:

 

Best compliment I've had for a while, that :cheers:

Bikers on TZ are there? Let me know next time! Though I'm Brighton way so I'm guessing prohibitively too far north for me...

There were a series of threads about it, mate. We were riding through the Chilterns today, ending up at H Cafe.

Lol lot to be said for proper sat nav then.

 

Yeah, without question. It went slightly pear shaped immediately, though, when some of the faster bikes set off before we were all ready and then proceeded to lead everyone onto the motorway (which we’d deliberatly avoided when planning the route).


Still, it was fun :thumb:

Nice review LTF, I think the BMW boxer engine is terrific. That's one brand I'd like to aspire to one day. BTW, undertaking at 14.25? :lol:

 

Much appreciated, thank you. Oh, and not really - the road split just about there and he was heading for the M1 whilst I was peeling off for Hemel Hempstead :thumb:
