Many thanks, Doug!

It was my 86th birthday the other day...

..and still as loopy as ever!

Virus or no virus...

Life still goes on!

During the enforced virus lockdown, I am now limited to short motorcycle runs to the Supermarket and back again for urgent groceries.

My latest trips...and memories of my rides before the virus...>>>>

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp5lKG ... d=0&view=0

Summer is almost here, and all my anticipated countryside tours and videos have now been put on hold for most/all of 2020...
..similar to all my many Motorcycle Chums (especially in the USA) all around the world!

It's time to be indoors, and be safe...and ALIVE!

Take care, all!

Paul...and lots of handwashing!.... ;) ...and lots of cooking!... :D ...!!

Me? I rather like the leisurely lolloping of an HD, 45-degree, Knucklehead, Panhead, Ironhead, and Shovelhead, even the first big twin EVO's up to 1999....
..then it all went to pot with the; Twin-Cams!
I like to run my vertical twin tick-over as slow as I can without her stalling, she then generates a slight off-beat sound with her single CV Carburettor and "wasted spark ignition" on her 360-degree firing order!
When my mirrors shake, I know that I've got it right!
I then pretend she is my '59 Panhead!...LOL...!

Bike it....You'll like it!.... :D ...!

Hello, all my 2-wheeled Chums!

The latest stuff from the Land of the Angles and Saxons during this deadly Pandemic Virus!

My daily escape from it all...>>> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp5lKG ... 9JA/videos

A view of the countryside at ground level for a change!

Motorcycle explorations using "Drone" helicopters for exploring the scenery from above are getting very popular now....>>>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozVxcVW05YU&t=12s

Lots of fun to be had!

Take care, all...and be SAFE!

Another great ride with you Paul. I don't find the wind noise bothering, actually I find it to bring out the realism in the ride as I get the wind noise riding my own bike. I just put up my bike for the winter on Friday and not a bit to soon as it is freezing rain here today. I am looking forward to my next ride along with you.

Have a great week
Tug :)

Good to see you Tug!

My Daisy is my only means of transport, so I ride her all year round, come rain or shine, even with Winter on the way now!!
Thanks for peeking at my videos! I get a good response from fellow bikers all around the world..they are a grand lot!
Take care Tug...and to be SAFE in these virus-ridden times!!

With the depths of winter on the way, and Xmas on the horizon...
..its time to have a peek at all my daily motorcycle trips before any ice and snow force me off the road (for a day or two!).....>>>

(Lots more to upload!).

A happy Christmas, with good cheer to all my winged, and two-wheeled explorer Chums, everywhere!.... :obscene-drinkingcheers: ...!
