@@davidgilding3549 Christmas arrived early !!! Haha mate , many thanks for that , that’s real kind . From me & Lisa … Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year
I have a favorite saying framed near my picture window. "I live in a small house, but there's a whole world just aside my door". It's a a great adventure, if we just let it be. Merry Christmas
very true words you never know where your bike may take you who you will meet n the memories made,i hope everyone has a good and safe xmas with those they love, care for and friends where possible ,never give up on life no matter what it may throw at you!
@@2ndborn186 These rants are a reminder to myself . Time has a way of making one forget , if it hits with someone else then that’s great . Of course the ferry will always suit many , just didn’t sit well with us , we are all so different, and travel the way we see fit. But for us the road always wins. In an emergency of course I’d take the ferry .. but with a choice… gimme the road , gimme the ride , give me the freedom to turn left , right , stop for the night , stop for a swim or a meal or a week . Haha I’ll stop or I’ll end up ranting . Merry Christmas to you & yours . Best wishes for 2025
@@LeanIntoTheWind never stop ranting. It's why we are here, to listen. Your response to mine is a great quote in itself. Merry Christmas to you and yours, as well. Best wished to you for 2025. Thanks for your inspiration. I always say, no one will lay on their death bed and say they rode their motorcycle too much.
That was lovely; great filming, great words and great that you were there for the moment on that unknown road. Bear with me, I've had a couple of JackD's ... Far above the open straths I see the wild geese fly The long long skeins of beating wings Heading toward the sea Along open roads the wind in my hair Kansas heart beating with fire Ahead the promised land On unknown roads With Fujin showing the way. With a bit of help from VJacobs. All the best Lean Into The Wind. Cheers

Are you going to share that magical island? Your last prompted me to get up to Velefique and tour the tabernas for a couple of days. Inspiration is the greatest gift! Gracias.
Fucking hell, spot on, concise, true, you are creating a path we all need, it’s new, unchained, unchartered, freedom, innovative, new and as old as time, most of all- necessary, I’m not seeking to be a guru, or think my words have wisdom, but this is the way forward thank you
Thanks for the early Christmas present Mark, wonderful short video 📹, I'll be Riding soon,collar bone is mending fast🙏. Have a splendid Christmas with Lisa and the family, all the best mate 🤟 FTW
This was a nice little Christmas bonus . Some great shots of mont Sainte Michael too. Took the Spain ferry once years ago vowed never again, why? Cost, boredom, claustrophobia. Since then I’ve rode through France a few times. Stayed in a gypsy caravan in Cognac, farmhouses in the Loire valley, run down hotels in the Pyrenees. But mostly just doing it in one hit only stopping for fuel and a brew. As you say you’ll always have a story to tell when you take the road. ❤
@@MarkG-su4wd Thanks so much , sitting here with bout our girls and their fellas with a Christmas movie on , belly full . Grateful 🙏 Merry Christmas to you and yours Best wishes for 25
Cheers for this . Made the the tears flow which is is good because I’ve not felt much for months. Not been able to ride the bike for months for a while either. Time to try harder. Have a great Xmas and a wonderful new year. You’re a blessing to the world.
Looking forward to putting those exact words into action in the upcoming new year. As we stand on the brink of 2025, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of excitement and anticipation. Here’s to a year filled with adventure, personal growth and radiant smiles. May each ride bring new experiences and opportunities to learn and thrive. Let's embrace the challenges ahead with open hearts and a spirit of adventure, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Cheers to a fantastic year ahead!

"Rob you of the road". Wow. As an avid motorcyclist, that hit me hard, gave me a jolt. I had a feeling of loss. Great, powerful message.

Merry Christmas mate enjoy the day
That was lovely; great filming, great words and great that you were there for the moment on that unknown road.
Bear with me, I've had a couple of JackD's ...
Far above the open straths I see the wild geese fly
The long long skeins of beating wings
Heading toward the sea
Along open roads the wind in my hair
Kansas heart beating with fire
Ahead the promised land
On unknown roads
With Fujin showing the way.
With a bit of help from VJacobs.
All the best Lean Into The Wind.
