Current project, which i vowed was to be the last is due back from painters next week... So once complete who knows


It’s definitely a lot cheaper and hassle free way to go if you find the right scooter with the right patina… not to mention a more unique look… and you will get some looks! :)

Yes, I spent a pleasant hour on the sofa with a hair-of-the-dog. Very entertaining.

Fair shout for getting it running after all those years, I watched a few bits of the videos and all of the part 4 Euro vid brilliant, the bit outside the British museum (Cee You NextTuesday!!) I actually felt your pain and the French police on the motorway mintI, I know what you mean about the long runs in France, I think we done a 4 hour run constant rain :lol: , but a very good watch thanks for sharing.

I found it dead stressful. Breaking down at the side of the road on your own. Being so tired you are hallucinating. Most of us have done it, and probably will again, but it isn’t too much fun at the time :P

That said, great watch. When is the next one covering the Euro and back?

Loved all the videos so far especially the ride down through London and Paris. I have to admire your tenacity as I'd have knocked the photo ops on the head and then regretted it forever ;) Looking forward to the return journey 8-)

Nice chatting to at Marlow btw

Cheers dude!… I wanted to post it this Friday however I think it needs another 5 min ‘future me’ segment to fill some gaps!- and I don’t think I can do that this week so probably the middle of next week…

Cheers mate… yeah I did miss a load out tbh- (and there could be more on the way back to?!) … can you imagine breaking down in the middle of France on your own … the last thing you need is to set a camera up and mess about get the shot right before you start trying to fix it!… but add to that the stress that 100k have watched the first video now and 155k for the series so far and you don’t even make it to Paris!!- I would have looked a right dick!!(more than usual that is) ,
Sorry I talked to a few people at Marlow which one were you! :shock: Where did we speak- outside the do??… I was a little drunk !… Marlow video we be posted soon as well btw..
