"No hurry, but when are you coming home? The dog needs a walk". That'd be the message I got, anyway. 😂

An un-rushed mystery tour on a motorcycle can be very therapeutic! Great that your wife is accommodating of your hobbies....mine too.....up to a point! ; ) Cheers.

This was a relaxing segment. I enjoyed the slow pace of the back roads and the “looking around”. Looking forward to seeing the next video. Cheers, Jim

Hi Nick. Seeing you ride the concrete slab section reminded me of my trip across the USA in 2008. Some of their slab roads go on for miles and miles so get very tedious. Still enjoying the relaxed tour so keep up the good work.

Many thanks a d luckily those slabs only lasted a few miles. I hope your suspension coped on your trek! Nick

You just got to love SatNavs, they do like to keep you guessing. I will make sure I have a rough plan for this years tour because like you, I did do a bit of "aimless riding" last year. But not too strict I cannot change plans if required. You have a very understanding wife, that is certain.
@bikingtravels7 ай бұрын
Good idea to have a plan but be flexible as you desire. And yep... she's a keeper! Nick

Well Nick not too far to go now. I live in AU and am planning to do the Longest Shortcut in the world approximately 10,000 klms from Perth to Cairns through the centre. I hope I can record my trip as well as you did yours, cheers
