      ​​@@teapotoneSo I live in the USA and I'm trying to figure out your fuel prices, currently premium is around $4.40 a gallon here in Montana. There is almost 4 liters in a gallon so are you guys at $10 a gallon? Loving your videos, keep it up!

      @nscott26 roughly yes, anywhere from around $8/gallon upwards

    It's a train viaduct:
    Harringworth Viaduct (sometimes called Welland Viaduct) It used to form part of the main line to Nottingham, but is now only used by freight services and a couple of East Midlands Trains services daily. It has 82 arches and uses more than 20 million bricks.

    • @ifindoubtbailout70
      @ifindoubtbailout70 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yup, it's definitely a train viaduct. I've got a good video of the flying Scotsmen coming over last year( not you Teapot🤣). It was even bombed during world war 2 by those pesky Nazis.

    I love the roads in this area, indeed I lived in the area years back. The A47 is known for car drivers pulling out, and the bends are known for catching out riders who think they are better riders than they actually are (believe me, that's a lot)...

  • @DanceMusic1957

      Cheers Mark, but it’s actually been very slow, particularly this year for some reason.
      I’ve often wondered if my stuff is any good as I see lots of other channels absolutely smashing it in terms of growth - but I’m just not interested in doing the type of content they do 🤷‍♂️

    @barrydaly7174 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That Horse Poo comment brought back horrific memories of me coming a cropper when hitting a couple of meters of Frozen Equine ordure. ( As they don't stop walking when "Taking their ease" do they). Just when I thought I'd made it....GS down!

  • @MotoNelly
    @MotoNelly ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Good to see you in my local area. There are some cracking roads around. I'd try to avoid having to fill at that particular petrol station, seems to be 25% more expensive than anywhere else around! Probably because its next to a Harley dealer 😅

  • @ogdennash2439
    @ogdennash2439 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You are on my home ground, so I know every inch of this route. I think you missed a couple of great opportunities that I always ride. Out of Uppingham, I would choose the single track road around the Eyebrook reservoir .... simply beautiful. When you got to Morcott, you turned right and left to go to the viaduct, but a left turn and 1 mile would have taken you to the "Two Flags Cafe" a great bikers stopover. Finally - just after Thorpe BY Water, .... you took the long route to Caldecott, but I would have turned right on the small single track road to Lyddington, one of the most beautiful villages in England and then back up to Uppingham.
    Cheers

  • @DazmatronMotorcycleTrips
    @DazmatronMotorcycleTrips ปีที่แล้ว +1

    'The Rutland TT' was the 1st route I did on my new spanking GS as I live nearby. I've since rode some of this route with the 'Bike Safe' course with Leicestershire Police, it's a great road for them to assess you're lane procedure in those fast flowing twisties! (A606 & A6003).
    Other than starting from the BP petrol station there is public parking at the back of 'Ye Old Portk Pie Shop' in Melton, great to calorie up with a traditional pork pie before the route.
    Another stop off is the Square, slap bang in the middle of Uppingham, there is less parking parking but a couple of nice coffee houses and great patisseries from 'Baines Bakery' (3, High Street Uppingham).
    Also in Uppingham at the end of the vid as you see the BP petrol station, there are actually 2 bike dealerships either side of that garage, a Harley Davidson dealership & a Yamaha dealership, so worth a stop off there too.
    The push bike community have routes in the area too & although slightly off-piste (Tugby)
    the Cafe Ventoux is a great motorcycle stop off with awesome scenic views & free parking for plenty of bikes, there were a few bikers there when I last visited this year, I can recommend there too...Enjoy! thanks for the Vid guys showcasing this route 👍

    I like watching these not only for discovering routes away from areas usually associated with the best riding but also for the conversations along the way. Bruce is effusive whilst Simon is a bit more restrained & the contrast works well.

    I just bought a Suzuki GSX 1250 FA two weeks ago as my first big bike. Have only been riding 5 years, getting my full licence 3 years ago. My aim this year (once the weather is less rainy) is to do out for some nice rides on the weekend, just for a couple of hours, to explore this magical island we live on and enjoy the solitary zen nature of riding a motorcycle. I am so glad to have found this video; i'll definitely be buying the book as, living in Peterborough, it seems I will easy access to a lot of these routes. Thanks guys

    I'm from Kent and I've just passed, taking delivery of my first bike this weekend. My other half is from Oakham - think it may be time to pay the inlaws a visit...
    The Fun Fact I heard about Whitwell, was they wrote to the mayor of Paris about twinning the town- stating in the letter that they should write back if they object, and if they don't they'll take it as a done deal- and they never heard back!

    Geek alert! The Welland or Harrington or Seaton viaduct (whichever name you prefer) is the longest masonry built viaduct in the UK. Simon’s Rutland TT route is one of my favourites in this area and luckily, Melton Mowbray is just 10 miles away from me to hop onto the route. Great vid as always Brucie 🏍️🏍️👍

    Roads i'm very familiar with. But as Simon said, the limits are changing as are the amount of kill joys with dash cams ready to send in they're footage of you.... love those roads...it can also be used as part of a route accross to east leake and onto Matlock and up to glossop ! I didn't tell any of you that... ok... use your imagination... 😊

    I keep meaning to do the rutland tt or some of simons other routes. But couldn't finger out how to change the start point in calimoto, as I live nearer to the other side than the start on the gpx file. Kept trying to take me half way round it, then do a lap, then take me half way round it to go home, which is a bit of a pain. When I tried to adjust the points i ended up messing up the route.

      You should just be able to tap and hold on the map wherever you want to start the ride from, then it should come up with 3 options - “Change Start”, “Set as Via Point” and “Set as Destination”.
      Tap “Change Start” and you’re done 👍

    BMW needs to expand their dealership networks in the us if they want everyone on a gs. I have never even seen one in real life.

      GS's are everywhere in Europe.....they don't even get a 'second looking' by anyone even though you may have spent well over £20k on one....
      No 1 bike for touring though...🤗

    I bought the full calimoto app licence. Are these routes available for download anywhere? Ignore me, I found his link :-)
