Hi Paul, thank you very much I really appreciate that. Coming from a professional like yourself it is good to hear that what I am saying makes sense!! Many thanks and all the best.
Well said. Another great vid explaining the benefits of riding a motorbike and the dips and troughs many of us experience but are too ashamed or in denial to say anything. Being on my bike perks up my mood. I could be having a bad day and as soon as I'm on my bike it's a positive experience. Being bikers we are constantly learning to adapt to new situations. Personally if more people rode bikes the world would be a positive place. Sending positive vibes. Keep up with the good vids. A joy to watch
Hi Ellen, many thanks I really appreciate that 👍 I always find admitting and speaking out loud that you are struggling or have a problem helps one a lot. Very well said, riding a motorbike automatically turns your day into a positive experience, and that positivity stays with you even after you have gotten off the bike. 100% more people should ride bikes. Many thanks again and continue to enjoy your riding. All the best
Absolutely. Imagine what would happen if we melted down those arsenals and recycled them into motorcycles. The world would be a better place, and as long as we didn't all debaffle, a much more peaceful one too!😊
I recently lost my wife to cancer, and decided to purchase a Speedmaster for my own wellness. I know that while she didn't want me riding bikes while we were together, I think it was my leather-clad outlaw image that initially caught my eye. While I miss her very much, I know she'll be reminding the Lord to keep a weather eye on me whenever I ride. (In the two weeks since I got it, it has rained virtually every day.) I'll be taking it easy while I reaccustom myself to riding, but it will be a vital part of my CBT. That's Cruiser Bike Therapy, a vital part of my Wellness programme. You are the second Speedmaster VLOGGER to mention mental health benefits. The other guy is an American with the Two Wheeling Vet handle, and his message is similar to yours. When you think about it, getting out on a bike, being part of the environment, feeling the rush of air about you and being one with your environment is a great way to chill. Thank you for sharing, and it's comforting to know that many of us dealing with anxiety and depression are choosing two wheels as part of our wellness programs.
Hi I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Good for you for jumping back in the saddle, it has done me so much good and has been a great healer. I think you have made a great decision 👍 I hope the Speedmaster can do as much for you as it has for me! Enjoy your riding and take care. All the best.
Thanks for the video. It certainly helped me, for all of the points you mentioned; mindfulness, concentration, the biking community, the ease of access to new places and scenery. Something that helped almost as much is doing one's own maintenance, as much as one can. There's nothing like changing the oil, bleeding the brakes, cleaning the bike, lubing the chain to give oneself a feeling a having accomplished something.
Hi, thanks so much that is great to know that it has helped you for all those points as well 👍 Absolutely the maintenance side of motorcycling is a huge benefit. I still sometimes find it a chore but once I have done the work I always feel better afterwards. Cheers
Hi Darren, thanks really pleased you liked the video. Fantastic congratulations on getting your first bike and welcome to the motorcycle world! Many good times to come for you. Great to hear that it has helped you out. All the best and enjoy your riding 👍
I love to the maintenance as well it makes me feel like I know my speedmaster better! The riders are great,just get away from the all shit we have here in the states now. For me The ride just lets all the carp just fade away for those hours that I'm on my bike.Ride on Dude!
Hi Mitch, absolutely I like the maintenance as well 👍 Definitely makes you feel closer to the bike. Riding is the best way to just feel free and simplify life. Thanks man and same to you, keep riding and stay safe.
100% True Brah. Great work with the video. Oh, Beautiful Bike! Now that I ride paved/dirt roads, backroads. I drive My vehicle like I'm riding My Moto.
What a beautifully soothing video. You give me such hope and inspiration. Frome looks lovely and I am now brave enough to go to a coffe shop on my own and just have a coffee. I have also found bikers in general to be friendly and supportive. Tired of waiting for my local CBT centre to open, so I am going to book it in Exeter even though it means getting up at 5:30am 😩
Thanks Lily really pleased you liked that. So good to know that I can give you hope and inspiration 🙌 Small steps at the start and keep it simple. Thats what I find helps. Absolutely bikers are so supportive and friendly people, we really do all look out for each other. 💪 Good for you, go for it. It will be worth the early start!! Good luck
Thanks John, really pleased you can relate and biking helped you through you bad times as well. It has been the best medicine for me 🙌. All the best to you for the future, and keep riding ✌️
Hi there Angus, this was such a pleasure to watch and listen to all your positive comments. The whole video certainly put me in a relaxed mood and washed away all my days stress. Keep up your great work buddy. All the best, cheers from gary 👍 👏 👌 😀.
Hi Gary, thank you so much. That really is so good to hear that it was relaxing for you, I hope it helps. Many thanks, and all the best to you as well. Cheers 👍
Hi Angus fraudsters got in to debit and credit cards this week and took a great deal. I felt proper depressed and fed up. I took the bike ( speed twin ) for a seventy mile run and felt much better Matt
Hi Matt, ah no!!! That is terrible, has to be one of the lowest forms of crime. Sorry to hear that, I hope the bank covers you for it. Try to look on the bright side, at least you still have your motorbike. Keep riding and feel that freedom. Don't let them get you down. Cheers and all the best.
🙌 Many thanks I appreciate it and really pleased you are enjoying the videos. That sounds like a great idea, I would love to hear a song about riding for mental health 😁
Really feel all the points at the start, especially the mindfulness and how ones mind is always thinking when you're on the bike as a new rider! 😁 Really loved the video and the drone shots are amazing!!
Hi Alex, thanks so much really pleased you liked the video and could relate to some of the points. Mindfulness is such an important part of riding, I love practicing it in all aspects of life. Many thanks and all the best.
Very good vid, Gus. As you know I very much feel the same. Even if you're not going _to_ somewhere, the ride itself feels good and is effortless mindful meditation. There something very special about riding, even if you take it easy like I do - especially if you take it easy, in my opinion. I think some feel a barrier to biking because they think it's all about thrill seeking, scaring yourself and getting the adrenaline pumping, but it really doesn't have to be at all, that's totally up to the rider. My riding, compared to driving, is certainly not like a personal rollercoaster! More like gently swinging on a swing in the park rather than driving being like sitting on the sofa in your lounge. It's maybe a little less convenient and comfortable, but it's much more pleasant and fun and it's getting you out there just a little bit - enough to enjoy the outdoors and not be thinking about what worries you.
Thanks so much, really pleased you liked that one 👍 You are so right about that, it is such an effortless meditation. You don't even need to try it just automatically relaxes one. Love that, not all about the adrenaline 👌 Some of my best rides have been going slowly and just cruising and flowing with the road, like flying!! I think people need to know more about how relaxing and therapeutic motorcycling can be. Rather than the racy side of it! Thanks and all the best. Hope you are enjoying your riding.
I needed this today ! Its pushing me towards getting my license. I've suffered for 10 years with mental health and your videos having given me a sense of calm and adventure. A feeling I've not had for some years so thank you! I had an aprilia rs50 at 16 and it's just brought all those memories back for me and the feeling of freedom. Keep up the great work and keep talking ! I'm so glad I found your channel !!
Hi and welcome to the channel, really pleased you found the video 👍 Thanks that is so great to hear the videos help. That sense of adventure is so important and motorcycling provides so much of it, it is that sense of adventure that helps me feel so much better and gives me motivation. All the best to you and I hope you can perhaps take up riding again 🙌
@@redangrevival Well I've started the move thanks to yourself ! I went and passed my theory today. Onwards and upwards, honestly keep up the great work.
"I do t believe it"...I was only at Longleat last Thursday having a tour around Longleat House and then onto the drive round the animal safari park...not on the bike .. ;-) Beautiful scenery and really nice video.. as you say getting on your bike takes all stresses away and I can relate to the social anxiety to the point of having panic attacks when I was younger "Every wakeful step, every mindful act is the direct path to awakening.

O really!! Haha thats funny. 😂 It did cross my mind if maybe I could do the Safari on Speedy!! That would be a buzz. Thanks, glad you liked the video. All filmed around the Longleat area.

Hi Simon, thanks it is an absolute pleasure to make these videos 👍 Really pleased you could relate to the points in the video, and you also find them beneficial. Same to you and all the best.
Excellent counseling content to jumpstart our mental health awareness. THINK OUT OF THE BOX and go out there and explore the beautiful wonders. Don't think it twice, just pack and go. I prefer the sky, the heaven as my roof. Grab a nice cup of coffee and relax
I couldn't say those points in a better way! Riding a motorbike can really relieve from many of mental health problems, it's probably the best decision one can ever take. A motorbike plus a beautiful landscape plus a sunny day plus a cup of coffee somewhere, never ever I saw a better combination of little simple things. You cannot buy happiness, but you can buy a motorbike, and it's basically the same thing :)
Modern cars almost drive themselves these days. That can never happen on a motorcycle. You have to be engaged. It's like music: it cleanses you in a way we don't fully understand. We just know that it works.
Just today out exploring the backroads, people that live on them tend not to look both ways. I Almost T- Boned a car. LOL. That's why I try to go opposite any cross streets and openings. Peace too all
Where i go for my bike MOT (,small independant business ) There is a sign hanging upn,that says you will never see a motorcycle parked outside a psychiatrists practise. 😅 Been ridig since 1957.Still riding at 82
It's such a raw experience. I feel like the bike is effectively an extension of my body. The closest I get to that in a car is my mid-'90s Toyota, and even then - it's night & day. I do get annoyed by excessive use of electronics (ride-by-wire is the bane of my existence 😒) on many new bikes. Inserting a computer between rider and machine takes away some of that raw feeling, which imho defeats the purpose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nurturing of human brain is much much inferior but more than that if you ride a motorcycle and join a community it’s much superior to boost up your mentality atleast you get and receive an opportunity to upbring your thoughtprocess and adopt the culture and heritage of riding ❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹
When I got into bikes as a kid I never imagined how essential it would be to me as an adult. Separately, and I hope you won't mind my saying, you're obviously aware of the importance of defensive riding but you're not doing much to make yourself visible.
As a physician and motorcycle enthusiast, I have to commend your explanation of the mental health benefits of motorcycling.
Very well done.

Where i go for my bike MOT (,small independant business ) There is a sign hanging upn,that says you will never see a motorcycle parked outside a psychiatrists practise. 😅
Been ridig since 1957.Still riding at 82
🙌 so true
indeed
Nice video
Thanks really glad you enjoyed it 👍
It's such a raw experience. I feel like the bike is effectively an extension of my body. The closest I get to that in a car is my mid-'90s Toyota, and even then - it's night & day.
I do get annoyed by excessive use of electronics (ride-by-wire is the bane of my existence 😒) on many new bikes. Inserting a computer between rider and machine takes away some of that raw feeling, which imho defeats the purpose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s does dull the experience for sure. However that’s the beauty of buying a classic machine 👌
@@redangrevival Quite!
❤ 👍
Can somebody tell me the name of the jacket he’s wearing!?
Yes it is a Merlin Chigwell Light, great mesh summer jacket 👍
I wouldnt recommend riding in either position 1 or 3 for extended period as this invites the car behind to push into your lane
😃👍👍👍😃
👍 thanks 🙌
Nurturing of human brain is much much inferior but more than that if you ride a motorcycle and join a community it’s much superior to boost up your mentality atleast you get and receive an opportunity to upbring your thoughtprocess and adopt the culture and heritage of riding ❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹
Hear hear brother 🙌
When I got into bikes as a kid I never imagined how essential it would be to me as an adult. Separately, and I hope you won't mind my saying, you're obviously aware of the importance of defensive riding but you're not doing much to make yourself visible.
They are such a big part of my life, so healing! Yes in the winter I have a high visibility jacket.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹
