G'day TMF. Andy enjoyed this video very much.The roads you were riding on took me back to the early 60's when i was stationed at RAF Little Rissington the Central Flying School.Ahh those were the days riding around the Cotswolds on my trusty Vello 350 Viper. A beautiful part of England.
I enjoyed seeing your country and enjoyed the banter among friends! We here in Florida have a group called the Prowlers and we do RTE’s (ride to eats). Good to see you on the Wing. I have 106K on my ‘08 with absolutely no problems! I had to pass on my ‘17 Multistrada to my son after having a total knee replacement. To tall for this 76 year old . Great to you out and about again and always enjoy your test rides!
Carol and I visited there a couple of years ago on our channel. Pre Covid when you could go inside the decor is motor and motorcycle themed and really interesting. Was packed with high end cars when we went so guess they price to the clientèle The sign on exit is because so many of the cars loved roaring off on exit that it upset locals and drew the attention of the police. Its a lovely run on the Fosse Way back north to Hinckley as well.
Great video, I'm in the Navy and I was always taught scran stands for sultanas, currants, raisins and nuts. Which is what sailors of old kept in their pockets to snack on. Not sure if it is true but the tradition of using the term scran has definitely carried on. 👍
I often "look" at the salad. I remember once staying in a rather posh hotel in Bristol. Came down for breakfast, they'd prepared a fantastic spread of orange & grapefruit segments all peeled. There were other fruits too to make a fine fruit salad. I nodded to them in appreciation on my way to the full English buffet 😂
What more can one ask for? Good sensible friends, nice weather and roads and a decent bit off scoff in nice surroundings. I entirely agree with you on those Brioch Buns...what an earth are they about? Give me a burger in a proper roll.
A "cock horse" is a local strong horse they add to the stage coaches riding through, to help them get up a hill, literally adding extra horsepower. It is probably not a horse you would normally go on a long journeys on, hence why it's a key point in the song.
The main benefit of CarPlay is being able to use Waze that gives you all speed traps. Nice watching the video specially when the weather is bad here and can't get out.
Caffeine and Machine is my local hotspot, I really enjoyed watching them expand and become the place they are now. Unfortunately the Covid situation and weather has kept me away for too long. I’m looking forward to heading back when life is easier to “just turn up” like I always used to. The best part of this place by far is when it’s heaving with exotic and unusual machinery, so I highly recommend aiming for a sunny day.
@@TheMissendenFlyer well I can’t speak for these Covid times, but I know pre-Covid it was always free for bikes (even when it was heaving) and I believe the parking charge for cars at busy times could be used to claim a free non alcoholic drink. That’s the problem with this past year of all these government rules, it’s hard to compare now times to the normal times haha. Fingers crossed life returns to some semblance of normality in June as planned. 👍🏻
I am glad that you are back on the road, Wing and all. Looking forward to more road trips. I did enjoy riding my friends GS1200 Beemer through Cornwall in 2018. Cheers from Durban, South Africa.
It's so nice to be able to ride with such good friends! As you were riding through Oxford I could just imagine Morse traveling those same roads in his classic Jaguar. What a great post!
Fabulous video, racing ahead in left lane when the battery car accelerated was hilarious. Every biker I know does it. Mightn’t admit it but it kills us not to be first. Meeting the lads, leading about biking routes. Fair play Mr. Fly.
TMF I look forward to all your content but Bikers Scran with Geoff and Dan is something special and unique . Especially to someone whom hasn't,t set foot into your part of the world !!
I suspect that place falls into the same category as the Ace Cafe. At the end of the day it’s all about the ride and catching up with some mates, and that’s what matters 👍🏻
What a lovely day and in a lovely part of the world too! Can’t wait until my next venture South of Hadrian’s Wall. (Stafford in July!! 🏍) That DCT Goldwing is really, really growing on me!! Great video again. Many thanks!! 👍🏻
Nice trip, thanks for sharing Andy. Caffeine and Machine looks worth a visit - only 50 miles from Derby. I'll add that to the list for Kels & Me to visit. I'm with you on the Brioche bun - sweet and wholly inappropriate for a burger. That said, I did once cook a Choc chip brioche bread and butter pudding on a train for our crew - that worked though. That i3? I knew you were gonna have him - I'd have done exactly the same 😁👍
Glad you liked it RR - it's been a while since I filmed one thanks to COVID but there's a playlist of previous episodes here if you're interested in watching more >> th-cam.com/play/PL_719tkJvufas2IiLxEyP3tuFk1cV6Mup.html
Cheers TMF , I’m sitting here feeling sorry for myself having a chest infection and you’re out having a great ride on great roads, I’m looking forward to spring and summer riding, that has cheered me up 👍 the gold wing looks really comfortable sounds good as well.
Hi Andy. Great to see you riding with two buds on al lovely spring day. I’m envious, as in BC, non essential travel is not allowed. Good on you for knowing.WSC was born at Blenheim Palace. He is my favourite world Leader. I have read about 40 books either by or about him. Britain could use him now! Cheer
.....that is true John, in our house we have the mantra "McDonalds are for losers" as a way of programming ourselves to not to want to go there, as it's a slippery slope once you're on piste! (ooh no offence meant!!) ;0)
Always enjoy these videos . What a terrific ride through beautiful countryside and characterful towns .I reckon the disgruntled local on the market square said "Move along ,only GS 1200's can stop here "
@@TheMissendenFlyer great to see you back scramming with the boys/exactly how I think about.. it refreshing to see someone who gives a fig about the world as a balanced whole these days ..
Great video. I’ve spent a lot of time in this area over the last couple of weeks on and off road. Great roads, beautiful market towns and thankfully, great weather. Thank you.
Good to see my old stomping ground when I lived in Chipping Norton for a while. Not that I remember much as it was 1983. Good to see you blokes on your bikes again. Been blessed here so far in Western Australia with little COVID impact (touch wood) and managed 17000km’s of riding in the last year. Getting a bit chilly now though. Only 20 degrees C forecast for this weekend’s ride😛
Dan and Geoff, thanks for the ride. It was nice of you all to bring Andy along. :-) I took my first ride this weekend as well. Felt so good to get out on the bike.
Excellent. I’ve booked a long weekend at the College farm B&B based upon your Wales weekend a while back. Fingers crossed I get the weather that it offered for you guys. 👍
I read only this morn about tpms light staying...apparantly what you do is release the air in both tyres to below 15psi...pump them back up to normal pressure...ride a mile or so and light will go off!!
Thanks Andy and welcome back biker scran with Geoff and Dan. I always like to see what the Upworlders have to eat on a ride! :) From Downunder Dave in Aussie. :)
Great to get the background on the lads, and good to see you out on the mahoosive Wing.....Stratford is in my neck of the woods and I can highly recommend it as a great Sunday morning ride-to destination.....
Great to see my local area on one of your videos! Some fantastic roads and quality cafes/pubs near Woodstock. Checkout the Classic Motor Hub near Bibury for a coffee next time your in the Cotswolds, some lovely pieces of engineering there. The road on Fish Hill at Broadway Tower is another must! Love the channel 🤙🏼
A long time ago I bought 40 or so heifers from Blenheim Palace, lovely place and cracking farm land. Enjoyable video and the Goldwing is an awesome machine. Glad your all being let out in the UK....
G'day TMF. Andy enjoyed this video very much.The roads you were riding on took me back to the early

Two fascinating polite gentlemen there Missenden Flyer what a treat to have them as friends.
And he didn’t mention Triumph once 😂
Actually I mentioned Dan was on a Triumph Tiger......

Well today on a depressing May Bank Holiday Monday, the wind is howling, the rain is falling. Watching this though brought a cheer to my heart!
Yes what a difference 2 weeks make eh?
@@TheMissendenFlyer Typical Blighty weather. Unpredictable.
Another magic vlog tmf..top gents..and you were lucky with the weather..great stuff..BTW I'd pay 12 quid for a burger and chips for that scenery..👍👍🍻
Please make more videos like these in the future. I absolutely love it. It’s a chance from me to see the UK. I love it. What a beautiful place.
Nice trio of chaps, the sort of people I would be honored to share my motorcycling passion with.

"Could have warmed your fingers first..."
That got a good laugh.
That made me laugh too
yes Dan has an excellent line in subtle whit - I usually only spot them when I'm editing! (I cut all the really good ones out or I look bad)....
Great to see the Gold Wing sat in the sunshine, showing off that nice deep blue. Good upload TMF 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Looked a great fun biking day out with pals. The Goldwing looks stunning, great bike.
It really is!
Nice to see Jeff and Dan are fit and fine .. Normality feels a step closer watching a scran again .. Very enjoyable as usual ..
So glad you enjoyed it Graham - the next one should be a corker! Stay tuned....
Nice to get out and about again eh & good to see your mates in good health and cheer!
It certainly was Steve - good to hear from you again too!
Very much enjoyed that ride along. Looking forward to more of the same. Cheers to Geoff, Dan and of course TMF. 👍🏼 😎 🇺🇸 🌎

I’m liking that definition - let’s go with it...
Yes, I’ll look at the salads........I think I’ll have the cheeseburger. Brilliant!! I laughed out loud with Geoff.

Great episode, nothing better than a time out with friends sharing the hobby!
Ha ha fancy getting beat away at the traffic light Grand Prix. Look forward to the next installment with Jeff and Dan
Always love a bike trip out with you and your mates , keep up the good work stay safe 😎👌🏍🇬🇧🏍
Thanks, you too!
Top job ! If ever a video showed what motorcycling is all about, then that was it. Friends, fun, food. Perfect.
love these biker scran episodes, the banter and exchange of views is enlightening and entertaining.
What more can one ask for? Good sensible friends, nice weather and roads and a decent bit off scoff in nice surroundings. I entirely agree with you on those Brioch Buns...what an earth are they about? Give me a burger in a proper roll.
Glad we agree Mark!

Fantastic!! Every day is a school day - thank you for that!
A tip : you can watch series at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Terry Jefferson yea, been watching on Flixzone} for since november myself :)
Excellent. Really enjoyed it. Thanks guys!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Sounds good - although a few have reported that you have to pay £5 to park your bike there at the weekend (which strikes me as outrageous!)....

Great to see you back out again, that Honda looks great! lets hope we can all start to get back our lives back soon
Amen to that Jason!
Nice v-log 😁.
Love to hear the smooth engine running with the DCT.
Some lovely things in the car park of C&M!
The ‘Wing’ has a mighty Cockpit view 👌🏻😎
Doesn't it....
Ought to be ashamed of yourself hurtling away from the lights like that , racing that electric car LOL. Cracking video.
😆
Great video,roads and grub,look good,great company as well.👍
I am glad that you are back on the road, Wing and all.
Looking forward to more road trips.
I did enjoy riding my friends GS1200 Beemer through Cornwall in 2018.
Cheers from Durban, South Africa.
I like the red Morgan in front of the Building.
Yes lovely those aren't they....lots of interesting stuff came and went as we sat there....
Great to get out with your mates after such a long time. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
Great to see you chaps meeting up again .
Absolutely
Brilliant thanks for sharing
That was awesome. Thanks for sharing, hope we see more of this. :)
We will!
2:55 "I'm not using Apple Car Play, I'm using the inbuilt native Honda Satnav at the moment" *sirens go off* , *long pause* ... brilliant 🤣
Reminds me of the in-built passenger communicator going "WOOAAAAAAAGH!!!".
Another fine video with those two gentlemen, I'd imagine the outtakes would be classics.
It's so nice to be able to ride with such good friends! As you were riding through Oxford I could just imagine Morse traveling those same roads in his classic Jaguar. What a great post!
If I remember rightly the first episode of Inspector morse was called 'Last bus to Woodstock"
@@googlecontrolled Nice job! Great series.
Cool!

Welcome back Geoff and Dan and of course TMF . Love your episodes of Bikers Scran even from down here in OZ it's special stuff !! Well done to all !!!
Thanks John - really pleased you like these!

Yes! Been waiting for the return of biker scran. Didn't disappoint. Nice to see the gents all back together.
I'm with you on the brioche bun
Love this series, coz your local to me it's great seeing all the familiar roads.
Glad you enjoyed it John - thanks for watching...
Nice ride and meet up TMF. I like that word "faff".
I suspect that place falls into the same category as the Ace Cafe. At the end of the day it’s all about the ride and catching up with some mates, and that’s what matters 👍🏻
Exactly....nicer ride than the Ace though!

Stratford to Woodstock is one of my favourite weekend rides.
I do love a biker scran. Top work Mr Flyer.
Thanks 👍
What a great couple of guys. Good vid Andy 👍
Thanks 👍
Scran is also a slang term for food in the Merseyside area. Stands to reason with it being a nautical term.
Man, I miss riding with my buddies and having burgers in the sun.
Another great video on a great bike im looking forward to having my seat modified and gel fitting so I can get out on my st1100
Well that cheered me up no end! Nice simple run out with the lads and a bit of a nosebag thrown in with luverly weather well done guys😎
Wish that weather would come back, chuffing freezing now!
