Royal Enfield Classic 350; Army Special paint theme!

 







Yep thats my Enfield painted!, done over a weeks holiday as unseasonal mild weather window for November made it ok to spray. 


















Roll the 4 films!

Pt 1





Pt 2






Pt 3






And Pt 4

Interestingly the views for films I have made so far of my Enfield have went off the scale compared to various YouTube films in the last 12 or so years!,  the films have had hundreds of views and likes and comments from fans of these bikes from all around the world. I am going to keep making my usual Fatbike films and Jeep films and these motorcycle films as they all have different folk who they appeal to,

Winter beachriding continues....


Back out again at JMCP on the Fatbikes and today a mid day high tide, tumbling surf and winter sun made for a lovely light on the coast, a lot of debris washed down the river tyne in the estuary here and washed up out the sea after a crazy amount of rain at the end of last week.

No pics today as I was just filming,

Song is 'Organ. Inc' by Phontaine

Back on the coast for winter on the Surly Pugsley 2.0's!

After some 29+ wheel action bike packing G has the Fat wheels back on her Pink Pugsley for winter beach riding. I have two Orange Pugsleys so have one 29+ one full fat...


Surly Moonlander wheels with 100mm wide rims and 4.8" Schwalbe Jumbo Jim tyres are the way to go for beachriding!...

Bike Packing The Borders Abbeys Way (walking route)

 


Last Month we got away before the clocks changed for 3 nights camping and cycled the Borders Abbey Way - the walking route - there is also a road route. G had cycled that 3 times in the past but always wanted to try cycling the walking route. So in her usual military style preparation G had all the route down onto one A4 sheet and left a lot of time as knew from YouTube walking films, books etc that there could be a lot of styles to get over and gates to negotiate. This trip of around 70 miles would not be about munching miles but getting between ideal places to camp with loads of time to set up camp before id would be dark by 6pm at the latest...


As it turned out the weather was unseasonably warm esp at night and we only encountered heavy rain showers in the evenings and through the night when we were in the tent all fed and watered.The days would start with a breakfast before breaking camp and packing up and we would have at least one cafe stop around mid day or before to have a second breakfast.  Evenings were in the tent watching Tent TV! on G's tablet!...

Pictures bt G and I as usual did filming. They are not in order as always seem to happen and it takes too long to sort them in order so have a scroll through them and the film if after...
























































Film is quite long, so grab a cuppa and sit back while we do the hard work of getting laden bikes of those pesky styles!, to be fair from Melrose to Kelso it was a lot better...

Music is now by my big brother 'Scottish Nature Boy' on Soundcloud as has no Royalties as my channel is now Monetised as getting enough views now with the Motorbike films that are getting huge number and comments!
