There's some great riding round North Wales,Always call into the royal oak for a few pints when at the dragon rally, I read a book written in the 1950's about the area that mentions the pub and a painting on the wall by a famous artist who in the 1800's painted it to pay his bill , it's still above the fireplace in the pub. Anyway another great film, I've enjoyed all your films so far and look forward to many more to come. Cheers👍
@@nigelt7610 brilliant story that about the painting .. I need to go back now and see it !!! Too busy eating . Great place .. I love that town . I remember going there for the first time when I was about 8 ! I thought it was incredible..
We just had a 10 night trip in Scotland and Lake District and Yorkshire dales on way home...my Mrs agrees with your good lady on lane splitting 😀 👍 but we noticed like yourselves the couple of trips in Europe traffic alot easier and we found so far bit more bike friendly...👍👍👍 enjoying the channel...👍👍👍
Go to love riding in Wales. Just done a day ride out to Abergavenny via Ross and Monmouth. Stunning countryside Another fantastic video, just a joy to watch.
Lovely film. I live in North Wales and was up and around Betws-y-Coed today, gorgeous weather, country looking beautiful, lots of bikes. I would stay off the motorway network as much as you can on Fridays, especially in Summer. If you're coming up this way and starting at lunchtime the M40 is usually OK till late afternoon, go right up to join the top end of the M5 and then leave for the A roads that run up through Kidderminster and Bridgnorth towards Shrewsbury, Wrexham and then into the mountains. Nicer roads for a bike and not nearly as bad on Fridays.
Was up there 2 weeks before you, stayed at bedgelert campsite, love it up there but as you said was a ballache getting there 6hrs for us in a van. You had the better weather.
Beautiful film as usual guys. Love your photography and artful views. Part of the problem is the rigid school holidays where families have no option but to clog up the already busy roads with a multitude of trucks and vans delivering all the so called 'essential shite' we all want deliverwd next day in the 6 week school holiday period. Plus of course the councils then want to work on the battered roads in the summer!!!!!!!! Mad. But I'd wish people were just more tolerant and aware of bikes. I stay off motorways now and enjoy the extra time it takes with great scenery. I live in west Shropshire so Wales is my go to. Stay safe, happy and well guys.
@@iandeumayne-jones1557 thanks for kind words . And yep school holidays play big part .. I think on a Friday in summer even non motorway would be hideous… It was all good practice anyhow . I just like a moan haha Best wishes mate
Love your video’s. I’m fortunate enough to live on Anglesey so am able to be in the mountains in 20 mins. If you find yourself up here again and need somewhere to camp give me a shout👍
@LeanIntoTheWind Thank you, we really enjoy watching your channel, following your adventures & travels, your music & tunes, your recommendations & inspiration. Just packed our bike for one night's camping near Dorchester this weekend + planning lots more. Safe travels guys.
Superb as usual! I love North Wales as a bike venue (even with the 20mph and average speed cameras) Top skills getting agreement for new pipes on record! Also...... 'Marina people' 🤣🤣
@@Tired_wirey_brandy_look. thanks again! Lucky the villages are small 20mph comes and goes quickly Unlike in London ! Yeah she really is keen for louder pipes !
Me & the Mrs have done tons of touring/camping/B&B'ing, love it - T'bird rider. Your vids are the next best thing to being on the road ourselves. As for the loud pipes, there's those who say they don't save lives but I feel safer with them, especially when lane splitting. Great filming, great music - keep 'em coming.
Oh man 100 miles of splitting & a seven hour ride, is like pulling teeth & trying to smile at the same time. The overnighter at the Royal Oak looked great worth doing the pain for that stay. Can we just clarify that 😂 perfect lol "Loud pipes save lives" It will be interesting what you select Mark. The views were stunning guys the green pops so bright wow. Loved the music as always such a flowing selection kept me drifting along in visual harmony. looking forward to part two ⭐⭐⭐⭐
UK is just beautiful all the way . been few time in north wales! its just amazing. give us a shout if you fancy ride together sometime, dont think we are that far apart. love to watch the vids :) rideSafe
Hey guys love the vids we have just got back to Devon from a few days in Norfolk (inc the Copdock show) on the way back we called in at Finchingham after seeing you guys went, lovely place 👍

@@andrewp634 glad you found the channel . Tbh both would be great touring bikes I’m sure .

This bike don’t flinch at 2-up all our camp gear , cook gear film gear .. food etc . Still rides like a dream and pulls like a train . Best wishes
Hi Mark and Lisa first amazing Chanel love watching your adventures,we passed each other on Saturday you were coming out of Capel Curig I was going in on a grey low rider s these roads are luckily my morning rides and still make me stop and look at their beauty I just wanted to say thank you for capturing their magic and come again there even better at 5 am.😎
@@StanSalisbury Remember you well ! I always spy the low riders … (love em) . That’s crazy you’ve seen this video already haha … 5am (I’ll take note) ! Thanks for the message mate . Our best to you .
Thank you for taking us on another great adventure. Really lifted my spirits up on a crappy Monday morning up in the colld wet North West of England. BTW thats curry looked proper tasty. Looking forward to part 2.Take it easy Mark and Lisa. Cheers Jim 👍
I rode down the A1M a few years ago on a Stage 1 tuned Victory, it was load and it was the parting of the waves so yes 'Loud pipes wake up people from their phone trances! 17 years ago Tesco worked out there were at least 80 Million people in this country, think about that!
@@LisaSchubert13 I wouldn't miss them Lisa, look forward to every one. I can't say too much, I'm sure I've spent more on my Low Rider in the past year than I have on my wife.
@@zippybiddelli700 Thanks ! 🙏 it’s stunning there … ikr , frustrating, I guess it’s a little game to them , it was always easy on my old chopper , that thing was pencil thin . But on the road king , bit more of a challenge, all good practice though

Great video, love the music too. Just discovered your channel tonight & look forward to watching more of your videos. I live in N. Wales & too often take it for granted so videos like yours are a great reminder to get out on the bike more. It's too easy to put things off for a dry day that never comes when you live here...though tomorrow actually will be 😊.
Sometimes I have to wait when i see something new from you and Lisa come up. Nothing else can be going on, nothing to interupt ,few things mean as much to me. Got my Bertie Mae back yesterday after nine weeks of restoration, she is magical. I smile almost all the way through the little vacations in routine you two leave here. I live in a region where people come from all over the country to ride these mountian roads, i smile while watching because you and Lisa have found what i have.....contentment, its rare and wears no disguise. Thanks again Mark.....Tank.
Great video, wonderful views with fun dialogue. Me n missis went to north wales the week before (bnb all the way....😊) our 2nd trip to those parts this year. Great fun. All the best.
Marc/Lisa; great video again! Me and my Mrs have hammered north/south Wales. Believe this or not: I’m watching this from Alde Garden campsite in Suffolk 😂 I saw your visit here, I love it! Just me and Tina the Triumph ❤
@@Grenadier_1656 ah great to hear . Alde garden lovely spot ! Cool people running it . It’s quite a charming tiny place . Enjoy ! Best wishes you two from us two
Nothing like being tucked up in a tent braced against an incoming storm. Delightful little film to close off my evening. Thanks again Mark and Lisa and ride safe
Yeah I know a lot of others wives - partners don’t , some people just don’t like being on a motorcycle… I’m lucky Lisa does … because some of the best times we ever have ! Best wishes
Over the past three years I’ve noticed the traffic getting worse and I mean far worse due to mainly road works that are totally unmanned for days. It makes me wonder if the government is doing on purpose to cause as much chaos as possible so they can justify pay by mile schemes and 15 minute towns. Well if we get to that stage and of course we will I’ll be turning my back on good old Blighty and getting the fuck out of dodge because I’ll be dammed if I’m being told when and how long I can go out for. Screw that. On a lighter note really enjoyed your video some beautiful cinematography. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Earls Colne bike show tomorrow if your wondering what to do. 🤘🏻
Sadly it's getting to that stage. I'm selling up, intention was to head into the countryside, but now leaning towards getting out the UK as unfortunately things don't look great for the future of the place and it's just getting stupidly pricey now for everything, and tax tax tax, and then more tax. Government never leaves us alone here, seem to squeezing every penny and freedom out of us.
You have really captured "it". I don't know the word(s) but it's there in your piece and I love it. It's expressing more than just a visit to Wales. it's about you individually, together, with the location and the majesty of the landscape. Love your work.
It's great to see a meal without ketchup. That looked perfectly appetizing. Mind you there was enough herbs in there to get you high. North Wales is wild and magical. I was there in September and had 4 days of Hot weather. Got sunburnt climbing Snowdon.
Don't know about yourselves but I never tire of riding North Wales 👌 as usual you captured the majesty and the beauty wonderfully 👍 thanks for sharing ✌️❤️🌞 FTW
I moved to North Wales about 18 months ago after many years living down south and working in London - I hadn't ridden a bike in many years and the mountains of Snowdonia screamed at me get a bike, get a bike, get a bike - so I did and have I've just had the most magical 18 months up in he mountains of Snowdonia and beyond the park boundaries as the magic goes well past the park boundary. North Wales is Gods land it is the physical 3d of heaven on Earth. I always carry a towel and swimming trucks in the topbox so I've also done lots of wild swimming in those wonderful lakes and waterfalls of Snowdonia - what an incredible place North Wales truly is.
@@cloudbasenirvana ah this is joy to read ! Good on you ! Magical place , when you get the sun up there is one of the most amazing places to swim .. I used to wild swim at the waterfalls in vale of the neath before the internet No one ever was there .. we’d wild camp 3 days only saw maybe two dog walkers Now .. it’s like a theme park .
@@LeanIntoTheWind I think you could live to be a thousand years old and go out riding everyday and never get get bored of Snowdonia - my Snowdonia extends to 50 miles(ish) past the park boundary, the magic is breath taking on so many levels.
Well shot, peeps. I knew an elderly Welsh woman in my youth, whose parents ran the Royal Oak in the last war. They made mushroom ketchup in the cellars, and she'd ride the hills on horseback as a young girl, to pick them. I hope you get to Nth Cumbria sometime, and you can both camp on my acreage. Great views of Cross Fell and Blencathra when the cloudbase is high.
@@LeanIntoTheWind You'd have loved her. She played the piano for the local church. Myself and my ex used to go around to hers for a cuppa, and she'd be playing hymns on her own piano. Then she'd break into singing and playing filthy Welsh rugby songs, see our jaws drop and laugh so hard she'd fall off her piano stool 🤣
I took my bike to the UK a few weeks ago to visit some friends and go on vacation, and the amount of traffic is ridiculous. But It's not overpopulation! It's because of terrible infrastructure. I'm from Holland and the road network is a lot less safe and logical than that in my country, I saw bike lanes on 70mph roads! At a number of points I thought the road design was actively trying to kill people. I still enjoyed going to England a lot, but it was in spite of all that. It leaves me with a weird feeling, seeing a beautiful country with so much potential that has just been squandering it for the last 50 years.
No we thank you for sharing. you are right Europe is great for the bike, that's why Vanessa & i love going every year. yes this once great land is going under & we could stop it but every so many years we have idiots that come along & say they will save us. But the only problem is them idiots are the governments in power at that time.
Hi.. I've just recently started following you... I'd like to hear your opinion on this model... are there any problems... you probably service the bike yourself :)
@@uciecaledokad hey man , I done a review after 10.000 miles . Gave my thoughts then . Almost at 20.000 now .. only problem is headstock badge is prone to falling off . So stick it down . Engine great . I change the 3 oils . But don’t do brakes . I just had new tyres and brakes done at shop . I’m really happy with bike so far . But as stock , had to change handlebars that’s the biggest complaint from virtually everyone
Evening Mark what camera you using for filming I've been looking at the gopro 9 I'm guessing everyone is going to have a different opinion but you seem to have a good judgement on things
We got a GoPro 10 and one GoPro 11 . They both do same thing . We bought the 10 second hand to see if we liked making these films , but after the Italy trip bought a new 11 . I don’t really notice any difference in either . They very robust . Close up stuff like cooking , and some talking shots I been using iPhone As it’s great too .
@@LeanIntoTheWind Yes , I've heard them they sound great, by the way, the food you prepare, compare to what I eat camping out, you are definitely next level😆👍

Yeah I know a lot of others wives - partners don’t , some people just don’t like being on a motorcycle… I’m lucky Lisa does … because some of the best times we ever have ! Best wishes
Over the past three years I’ve noticed the traffic getting worse and I mean far worse due to mainly road works that are totally unmanned for days. It makes me wonder if the government is doing on purpose to cause as much chaos as possible so they can justify pay by mile schemes and 15 minute towns. Well if we get to that stage and of course we will I’ll be turning my back on good old Blighty and getting the fuck out of dodge because I’ll be dammed if I’m being told when and how long I can go out for. Screw that.
On a lighter note really enjoyed your video some beautiful cinematography. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Earls Colne bike show tomorrow if your wondering what to do. 🤘🏻
@@zozoa1 you’re so right !
I think in 80 miles of road works we saw 4 workers . Go figure !!
Thanks 🙏 for kind words
Sadly it's getting to that stage. I'm selling up, intention was to head into the countryside, but now leaning towards getting out the UK as unfortunately things don't look great for the future of the place and it's just getting stupidly pricey now for everything, and tax tax tax, and then more tax. Government never leaves us alone here, seem to squeezing every penny and freedom out of us.
@@MegaVinny73 Good luck with your plans … best wishes mate
Welcome to my back yard can happily do 3/400 miles a day wobblin around here
@@rickhughes811 I bet ! Pure joy
Great great video.. what a joy to watch..
@@danielsouthern411 appreciate that man !
If you win the lottery Jeckyl and Hyde pipes are the dogs danglies dude 😂👍
Oh I’ve watched a video on those ! Insane
The UK needs to Stop Fuc%ing...ha ha ha ha. Cracked me up.
@@Tsuyoikaratekai1998 Lisa was like ‘You can’t say that’s!!!!
You have really captured "it". I don't know the word(s) but it's there in your piece and I love it. It's expressing more than just a visit to Wales. it's about you individually, together, with the location and the majesty of the landscape. Love your work.
@@laurencefaux6451 So kind of you to take time and leave a comment like that !
Much appreciated, our best to you .
Thanks
You guys are so awesome !!!!
So enjoyable watching your films .
Thank you very much 😊
@@markmoffett6813 really kind of you mate !
Thanks
It's great to see a meal without ketchup. That looked perfectly appetizing. Mind you there was enough herbs in there to get you high. North Wales is wild and magical. I was there in September and had 4 days of Hot weather. Got sunburnt climbing Snowdon.
Sunburn & Wales not often put in the same sentence… but when the sun is out , is just paradise !!!
Haha no ketchup in my camp
Don't know about yourselves but I never tire of riding North Wales 👌 as usual you captured the majesty and the beauty wonderfully 👍 thanks for sharing ✌️❤️🌞 FTW
@@markshawreflections850 .. right with you ! Could spend months there . Thank you mate
I moved to North Wales about 18 months ago after many years living down south and working in London - I hadn't ridden a bike in many years and the mountains of Snowdonia screamed at me get a bike, get a bike, get a bike - so I did and have I've just had the most magical 18 months up in he mountains of Snowdonia and beyond the park boundaries as the magic goes well past the park boundary. North Wales is Gods land it is the physical 3d of heaven on Earth.
I always carry a towel and swimming trucks in the topbox so I've also done lots of wild swimming in those wonderful lakes and waterfalls of Snowdonia - what an incredible place North Wales truly is.
@@cloudbasenirvana ah this is joy to read ! Good on you ! Magical place , when you get the sun up there is one of the most amazing places to swim ..
I used to wild swim at the waterfalls in vale of the neath before the internet
No one ever was there .. we’d wild camp 3 days only saw maybe two dog walkers
Now .. it’s like a theme park .
@@LeanIntoTheWind I think you could live to be a thousand years old and go out riding everyday and never get get bored of Snowdonia - my Snowdonia extends to 50 miles(ish) past the park boundary, the magic is breath taking on so many levels.
👍
Well shot, peeps. I knew an elderly Welsh woman in my youth, whose parents ran the Royal Oak in the last war. They made mushroom ketchup in the cellars, and she'd ride the hills on horseback as a young girl, to pick them. I hope you get to Nth Cumbria sometime, and you can both camp on my acreage. Great views of Cross Fell and Blencathra when the cloudbase is high.
@@spindelnett6315 wow ! Thats incredible! Thanks for sharing that . Love those old stories..
@@LeanIntoTheWind You'd have loved her. She played the piano for the local church. Myself and my ex used to go around to hers for a cuppa, and she'd be playing hymns on her own piano. Then she'd break into singing and playing filthy Welsh rugby songs, see our jaws drop and laugh so hard she'd fall off her piano stool 🤣
Simply magical to watch
Thank you !!
Oh and 40 minutes for a FN cold coffee at a marina with the beautiful people 😂😳
I know, he does crack me up - but we did wait 40 mins and I had to chase twice 😂 not really our sort of place but the view was lovely 😊
Hahaha
My homelands ❤❤❤ Im from Amlwch on Anglesey
Beautiful !!! we was so close...
I took my bike to the UK a few weeks ago to visit some friends and go on vacation, and the amount of traffic is ridiculous. But It's not overpopulation! It's because of terrible infrastructure. I'm from Holland and the road network is a lot less safe and logical than that in my country, I saw bike lanes on 70mph roads! At a number of points I thought the road design was actively trying to kill people. I still enjoyed going to England a lot, but it was in spite of all that. It leaves me with a weird feeling, seeing a beautiful country with so much potential that has just been squandering it for the last 50 years.
Yeah you got the uk roads sussed out !
Mayhem
Best wishes !!!
No we thank you for sharing. you are right Europe is great for the bike, that's why Vanessa & i love going every year. yes this once great land is going under & we could stop it but every so many years we have idiots that come along & say they will save us. But the only problem is them idiots are the governments in power at that time.
@@panam13stx amen to that !
Best wishes to you two .
New sub here, love it. Do lots of moto camping myself. Whats that site called please
Thanks so much for the sub - the campsite was Garth Farm Campsite , was a basic campsite with breathtaking views !! It was only £8 per person . 👍
Hi.. I've just recently started following you... I'd like to hear your opinion on this model... are there any problems... you probably service the bike yourself :)
@@uciecaledokad hey man , I done a review after 10.000 miles . Gave my thoughts then . Almost at 20.000 now ..
only problem is headstock badge is prone to falling off . So stick it down . Engine great . I change the 3 oils . But don’t do brakes . I just had new tyres and brakes done at shop . I’m really happy with bike so far . But as stock , had to change handlebars that’s the biggest complaint from virtually everyone
Evening Mark what camera you using for filming
I've been looking at the gopro 9
I'm guessing everyone is going to have a different opinion but you seem to have a good judgement on things
We got a GoPro 10 and one GoPro 11 .
They both do same thing .
We bought the 10 second hand to see if we liked making these films , but after the Italy trip bought a new 11 .
I don’t really notice any difference in either . They very robust .
Close up stuff like cooking , and some talking shots I been using iPhone
As it’s great too .
Could of met up for a brew at the ponderosa I live in north wales
@@Treeman196 Would have been great . Just beautiful country !
@LeanIntoTheWind it is but it rains alot
@@Treeman196 I know !!!
😂😂😂@@LeanIntoTheWind
Massive amount of pipes out there that are a tad louder but not too loud, make sure it gets a proper tune it will run better over all
@@billyfinch7341 yeah next on the list ! I do like the sound of 2 brothers shorty
@@LeanIntoTheWind Yes , I've heard them they sound great, by the way, the food you prepare, compare to what I eat camping out, you are definitely next level😆👍
@@billyfinch7341 I been cooking to myself since I was 10 , I love cooking , never in a rush camping ..
By far, the best biking video I've seen in ages. Excellent! Ride safe.
Wow , super kind !
Love that .. thank you mate
Thanks
Hey man that’s so generous of you !
Thank you so much
Really means a lot !!
Best wishes
Your more than welcome, love your videos, you will need to get to Mid Wales one day 😄
@@MrAndyLeett we will !
