Thank you for making such a civilized video aboard this magnificent machine! I just got my 2nd XX (2002 model year). I am 63 and dont ride it insanely. Glad you still have yours! Safe and continued happy motoring!
Ridden that route many a time on both motorcycle and bike, great journey,I too have something in common with you, wedding reception at Lake Vyrnwy Hotel back in 1995.A long association with the Hotel having helped with Marketing and photography also in the nineties and riding a blackbird then.
Great video thoroughly enjoyed it. Have a recently aquired silver bb, my last one was over 12 years ago, and was red carbed model. Definitely, a multifunctional bike as said. Wanted another for quite some while, to join my hd in the garage. Wont sell this one as i did the last, and quickly regretted it. Beautiful scenery in Wales ❤ It!!. Safe rides to you mate.🏁🥂
The guy who went down was part of my group, I had my lad on the back and came down the hill and parked up ,luckily we made it to our destination although a bit late , thanks again for stopping and helping out 👍
Hey, very glad that you made it to your destination ok. I really felt for your friend - it was a very ropey surface! Thanks for your comment, good to hear from you! All the best
Nice video mate. I'll have to try that route on my bird this year. Looks stunning. The perfect bike for the taller person in my opinion. I'm 6ft 6in and it feels so comfortable👍

I know - that's the great thing about it. You can ride it gently to the shops or open the taps and it flies! Safe rides :-)
Lovely run, thank you. A bit scary with the sharp slopes. Miss my Blackbirds and Fireblades. Brought back happy memories from an old biker.
Yes - single track brings it's own challenges but I love being in the wild countryside! Really glad you enjoyed it
Done that road many times. Beautiful route.

Wow. I may have to go down there this summer. Great Vlog mate cheers.
Yes - it's fabulous. Highly recommended!

Hi John, I totally agree - I find it comfortable for both wrists and legs. It's a cracking route - enjoy!
Beautiful roads of central and north Wales in great weather. Have you still got your Blackbird?
I have, it's a keeper :-)
You should of gone over the dam and got an ice cream in the visitor centre/cafe then clockwise around lake and over the mountain to Bala!
Agreed - we did that route too. Really stunning! Cafe was good but v. busy
Beautiful countryside but awful single track roads
But single track are fun I think. Feels you are really in the wilds!
90% of wales is single track :) . More fun on a little bike (WR250 for me, I live nearby). Dinas Mawddwy is nice too.
