- Last ride of the year for the 250cc overhead valve Panther Little Red. Part 2 of a 100-mile ride in mist and low cloud with waterproof fellow riders of the Vintage and Classic MCC. Includes tea and cheesy chips.
Very enjoyable JJ. I love the sound of Little Red. Very mellow and eager
Thank you sincerely for the additional sunny day footage. I was dreadfully close to slitting my wrists from the endless miles of gloom. 😉 Kidding aside, every video is thoroughly enjoyed for at least the narration, even if the weather decides not to cooperate.
Good am sir, your videos just popped up on useless tube so i watched them both back to back while slurping my morning coffee. What a nice olde machine you have, it's quite relaxing riding along with you & listening to the gentle purr of that olde engine. I'm not a big harley fan unless they are olde as i am(ancient) but your friends' olde bike is a real treasure to behold. I usually like to ride out in the winter when roads & weather are at least tolerable however here this year we have been up to our a$$=$ in snow, no let up. Oh well, that's winter for you. Thanks for the ride & i hope you enjoy many more outings on that nice olde horse. Ric, ontario canada.
Just when I had some time to kill before Newcastle play Fulham, up pops one of your excellent videos. Thanks!
Really enjoyed the ride and the sound of little red. Thank you for sharing.
Little Red is such a sweet sounding bike, mine was the hundredth like on this video😜
My first ride of 2025 this January included Hallaton to Launde Abbey and beyond. The road between East Norton and Launde was particularly muddy and my bike got absolutely filthy, the mudguards on my café racer being designed for show and not utility.
Riding over the cattle grid entering the grounds of Launde Abbey is as if you are transported back several hundred years before the fields of England were enclosed with hedges. I live just across the border in North Northamptonshire and my first ride through Launde was as recent as the month of your ride, albeit I had a sunny day similar to your outfit ride inserted into this video.
I wouldn’t have thought of riding through Launde at all until I watched the Ol’man from a father and son TH-cam channel riding through and worked out where he was via Google Maps. I won’t be heading there again though until I’m confident there will be less mud on the journey !!
greetings from north carolina what a relaxing video beats those bike videos with "Born to be Wild" blaring as 'background music"
Thanks JJ loved the ride on little Red. 👌
Thank you for that, sir. I saw a Harley, your Panther, a scooter and a Triumph twin? Would love a dekko at the machines that you friends are riding.
Whoa steady on there! I had a cup of coffee in my hand when you wiped the camera! Almost spilt it! 😱🤣
Thank you. Another lovely video.
The little red bike runs like new. It must be most enjoyable to pilot it along such a pleasant route.
Fabulous intrepid ride 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻
cheers JJ good time ad by all stay safe c u next run.
Very good video Jonathan although I might have skipped the filling station and, indeed, the emptying station detail. I think with a sizeable adjustment to the weather, that route is well worth a re-run. I am still finding mud from those lanes in unexpected places as I go through my winter servicing and inspection.
Nothing less than a complete strip down and rebuild will remove all the mud...
Haven't been out on my Francis Barnett since October. I made a rash promise to ride my brother's Bantam To the familie's ancestral farm, 110 miles away. Another 10 weeks, at least. The Barnett is booked for the local St. Patrick's Day parade. Brrr.
Bit of rubber tube zip tied over the stand against frame
Is that timing adjustment? How old is that bike? 😂 It exudes class
hi again where are all the white lines and markings on the roads in GB gone for ever JJ we are in east mid's and the roads are the same what's gone wrong with this great place we live in.
