You Victorians are hardcore. I thought it was cold up in Brisbane with a maximum of 17C. Great video of a beautiful location.

I am in similar situation like you.. Closing on 40, was passionate biker in my early 20's .. Had big bikes but speed and power don't appeal to me any more. Love Enfields and thinking of getting one, love the character and the simplicity no nonsense approach. Hunter is my favorite but have my eye on the twins 650s as well.

Winter in Oz = Summer in England 😮

Watching this from Arizona, USA. It's currently 44 Celsius here. Or 114 degrees in Freedom Units. Enjoy the cold weather. Some of my best motorcycling memories happened in the cold. All the silly/ not great ones happened in the heat. Thanks for the video! o7

You sir are a much braver man than I! To bloody cold , another great watch. Next time you are on Grantulla Road hang a right onto Ridge Rd Trig Point/Johns Hill brilliant lookout :)

It has been pretty cold up here in Brisbane as well . The other day the maximum temperature was only 20C. Most days have been between 14C to 24C. As you said, can't wait till it warms up in Spring. Be careful on those frosty roads.

I am hoping for a gap in the weather for a ride out in our British summertime!. I have a week to get my bike up to 300 miles in shorter running in trips , not as easy as I originally thought when the weather is not cooperating!

It’s strange to see winter on the other side of the world, as we have the summer here. My learning continues and the Interceptor now has some panniers for adventures further afield and along the way I have acquired an old GoPro and tent. So may be, just may be, I will post some video - but I do not think they will be as nearly as interesting or creative as yours. Well done on your first 1,000 subs!

I bought the very same bike (in red though). Brand new, my first motorcycle at age 48. Yesterday I finally got it from the dealer and rode for about 60km. It's a beautiful bike, great sound and so easy to ride. I had SO much fun :-)

Great video. Congrats on 1000 subscribers mate. Ride on!

Ride safe this winter Upstate rides with you. Weaving through the Adirondacks and chasing freedom.

Good to have you back HN and I've noticed you have topped 1K subscribers, congratulations🍾👍

Man, you have never been in middle latitude or subpolar zone :D

Best time of the year in Australia by a looong way

Video and drone shots are excellent, well done.

India lifts the world cup❤

Cool video, getting mine this week, Rebel Blue like yours!

Hi it Chris from west London UK done nearly 3000 miles on my hunter will be going for 2nd service very soon very jealous of the roads you ride on

I have a Meteor and its the greatest bike ever 👍😁

The first time I was able to shift gears on a moto, it was on a dirt road and I was about to cry, but I was laughing inside my helmet. I couldn't explain it. This was a superb video, tomorrow I'll buy my RE dapper grey . Regards from Chile.

I'm a returning rider, after 29 years, and I've got a deposit on a Triumph Speed 400 in Phantom Black to buy this coming week, but, am considering switching my choice to this bike. Love that sound, and it really did feel nice to ride. The only thing keeping me leaning to the Triumph is the 40hp compared to the 20hp of the Hunter. Tough call!

Truth, my man ❤Just received my Hunter yesterday. Spent three hours on it today. Smile after smile. Still smiling now, and im not even on it. Beautiful video.

After COVID broke out, and then unexpectedly my Mom died of cancer in May 2020, I bought my first motorcyle, a used 2008 Honda Nighthawk CB250cc. Everyone thought I was crazy. I had ridden Hodaka dirt bikes in the mid 1970s. Many do not understand how COVID has changed our relationships around the entire world, but fortunately it did not change our relationship with the motorbike.

When I was twenty, in 1989/1990, I stayed briefly in St. Kilda and went to Luna Park. Good times.

Howdy from Columbia, Missouri. USA. For the type of riding you are doing there is hardly any better, new, bike. The price is especially appealing. This Hunter 350 really excels in third and fourth gear in the twisties. Go Rebel Blue. Great looking bike. I was in Melbourne in 1989 & 1990. Traveled by bus from Melbourne to Sydney, to Brisbane to Port Douglas, dove on the Great Barrier reef for two weeks, back to Brisbane over and up to Darwin down to Kata Tjuta, Uluru (Ayers Rock), down to Adelaide and then back to Melbourne. I was there for three months, and traveled by bus for four weeks. Have you ridden on the Great Ocean Road down by the Apostles? That seems like a nice ride. Your style of riding is exactly the same as mine. The weather here is odd too, probably due to all the extra energy expended at these Taylor Swift concerts. Causing disruption to the global weather patterns.

Watch out for those pigeons!

I am 43 years old, and this year I started riding a motorcycle. I wondered if it made sense, but now I know. When I get on the motorcycle, I suddenly feel like I'm disconnecting from everything. For that moment on the motorcycle, I feel happy and relaxed. The motorcycle provides me with a lot of positive stimuli: calm riding, beautiful views, the sound of the engine. Only those who try it at least once will understand.

51 650gt. was 27 sum years since I road a bike. I just happen to be at the point in life all the kids are grown. it's tome to play again!

Half nomad, in America we ride and are lucky to enjoy the Hunter 350 that comes from a land far away and gives us so much freedom and happiness. Long live Half Nomad and his videos that keeps us happy and refreshed

73 ,cannot get enough thrills it about getting better more confident had over 50 bikes keepers ,modded t100,mv agusta brutale 800 conversion to supermotard

59 yo. Last rode about 35 years ago. Now on a RE Classic 350 signals marsh grey. Late life crisis here. ...loving it! Fuzzy biker calls his classic the Royal Zenfield👍.

Hi HN, another great video. Take care,T

Totally agree! You’ve described perfectly how I feel about riding. Same as you, used to ride in my late teens… wife and children kept me busy for a few years so didn’t ride. Now at 53 I’ve recently passed my licence and have an interceptor and love every moment riding it. I always take the long way home and look forward to adventures on my day off 👌🏻

❤❤

Very wholesome

I'm 52 and bought a Bullet 350 after over a decade of not riding and it has done wonders for my mental health. I hope to be pottering around country roads for many more decades to come.

Awesome video, bub. I’m 51 and acquired a Classic 350 about two months ago. Your description of riding is really on point. Thanks:)

I was riding motorcycles for as long as I remember. After a 9 year break of being without one, I (now at my 54) enjoy my new classic Enfield more than ever. I don't care if it's a mid life crisis or not but all I know is I started breathing again. I love your words as they seem very poetic to me. Most of your thoughts were Mike too, but just couldn't put words to them :)

I started at 35. I'll turn 40 this year. Keep on ridind !

Great stuff! I'm 58 started at 54, I'm disappointed I didn't do it sooner.

"The only wisdom I need is to stay upright and take those corners very safely, and perhaps thats the only wisdom one needs in life itself" Freaking bars dude

I learnt to ride a motorbike having never been on one in my life, even as a pillion, 10 months ago, at the age of 58. The only downside….. I didn’t do it sooner. All those good times missed. Now I’ve got my bike licence I get out on my Himalayan every chance I get. Now got a 600 mile trip around Devon and Cornwall, and a 2000 mile trip around England and Scotland under my belt. Such a great way to chill and enjoy life.

Superb Sir 👍 🇬🇧

I had a 40 year gap between riding, only started again in January, bought a 350 classic and its a great feeling to get away on my own riding the back roads

Had ridden 350 cc’s and now I’m 34, going back to motorcycles after 10 years. Booked a shotgun 650. This wait is killing me

This is wonderful on many levels keep up the grand work

I just bought a Hunter 350, it will be delivered in about two weeks. I am in my 40s too and haven't ridden in nearly 20+ years. This is the feeling I am hoping for that your expressed, solitude on the road, riding on back country roads, a sublime feeling. We shall see. Thanks for your video and thoughts.

I gave up long ago trying to explain motorcycling to non riders. I always get the impression that they think I'm mad. They really have no idea what they are missing. Thankfully it has no negative effect on me and I ride my bike full of joy😁

A philosophical treaty, great Video, a big salute from Argentina (Viva Royal Enfield!) Anyway I think the hunter would be better than the classic 350 to combine urban use in big cities (not for pleasure) and a quiet use on weekends on short trips out of town,
