I recognised a few places, Grange Over Sands being one of them.

Thanks,

Most of it is here in Belfast and some local runs with the Ulster Lambretta Club. But some were from the Wild Atlantic Way run in Ireland and Northern Ireland last year and there’s one clip from my France trip a couple of years ago.

Brilliant, enjoyed that

Excellent Rob

Fantastic Bilko, loved the soundtrack, was it Public Broadcasting?

That scared me to death.

Yes Colin. Superb group.

Great clip - thanks for posting!

Great vid!

There really are some tw@ts on the road.

I think that taking part in racing gives us much, much better road craft skills. Within limits, you can be as aggressive as you like on the track, but only with yourself & your bike.

Back on the road, you can go as fast as you dare but very, very defensively. The real skills are being able to embarrass others on the twisty bits, not in a straight line.

Reaction times are critical & you are not the only one to have taken extreme, evasive action. Overtaking on a dual carriageway, as I commenced, the first car, oblivious of our prescience, also started to overtake. I had no option other than to cross over the (smooth) central reservation, facing two lines of opposing traffic, & drive on to the breakdown lane.

Fortunately, my pillion was already wearing brown cords. It was the 70's, after all.

Love it ! ....i even made an appearance at 2.28 roll on next Aug bank hols

Just what the doctor ordered. Fantastic.

You're right. There's an English based member of our club in the video (he's probably reading this) who storms through bends really well and always leaves me for dead.

I was actually going to message you Russell to let you know but figured you soon find it.

I’m just surprised he wasn’t stopped at a field entrance

I was in a rush ......i'd heard you were at the bar

Enjoyed the video, really good filming and editing, cheers

Bonkers good that! Brought back so many seat of pants moments, not enough 'hand signals' mind The 'real ride' soundtrack edit as a Pee range was blasted past was genius
