You have been busy! That's what life is all about, doing what you like to do as much as you can. Sloridas video caught the incident really well. Just a shame he didn't get some points to show him that's not acceptable. Still plenty of time left this year for riding 👍👍

[@NooBiker]

Yeah can't forget to live. Don't want to do just surviving...

[@neilmackinnon3371]

I upgraded my horn at the beginning of the year to the 'small' Denalli sound bomb (115db). Didn't stop an elderly lady pulling out on me on a roundabout! Nice to see you at the Socialbags ride. I changed my plans for Scotland and went to North Wales instead... amazing place to ride. Scotland will still happen but at the other end of the summer. I am leading an organised ride next week.... scary prospect as I am NOT a group rider. Other than that, day rides during the visitor invasion of the South West and a possible return to the Somme in the autumn.

[@NooBiker]

Those plans sound awesome. I've thought about upgrading the horn, but I prefer to rely on me taking prevention rather than people responding to my horn in the appropriate manner

I'm pleased to confirm that the meeting between myself and Noobiker did indeed go ahead, it was great meeting him and sharing experiences, putting the world to right. The day started off wet but after coffee and a chat with Noob and Alex ( The Adventures of Bleary View) whom I'd invited to join us, Noob and I went to explore some local scenic routes. I took him on a loop around local lochs and mountains before returning to our meeting place for lunch to which Noob kindly treated me. Sadly our Comms wouldn't link so audio for the upcoming video will be pulled from the internal recorders of the DJI mics. I hope Noob enjoyed the ride as much as I did, it was great to share some local gems with him.

[@NooBiker]

I definitely enjoyed it. Will be a while before I get a video out, though...

[@greywolf9292]

@@NooBiker I started to edit footage last night, the first drawback was blank audio from your mic, I've had this before and suspect the on/off button accidently got pressed puting it in your pocket. Then I compiled all the footage and audio from my mic to sync it before editing down but as I'd added the clip of our initial meeting I was left with an unwanted gap. So I'm going to start all over again, whilst also trying to capture screen shots to replace the photos taken on my phone which is now dead. Oh the joys of editing 😂

Road 6s is an excellent choice especially if in the unlikely event you get caught in the rain.😄😄 I hope your police follow up better than ones in some parts of my country. Look forward to the Scotland trip vids.

[@NooBiker]

I'm still doing the Cornwall videos 😂 Rain? I've no idea what that is we rarely get that in Great Britain... The police said there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute but they interviewed the chap and did something called "Community Resolution" - don't ask me what that is I have no idea

[@HippoDrones]

Creepers are the worst.... ok, vans pulling out not looking are the worst, point well made at the end there! 😀

[@NooBiker]

I wasn't looking to make the point 🤣

[@HippoDrones]

@@NooBiker neither was the van driver! 😀

[@slorida]

Thank you for the mention. I've been to all the socialbags rides that I knew of, that's a 100% record.... sort of....😂

[@NooBiker]

Fair enough, I'll allow it... 🤣🤣🤣👍

[@slorida]

@@NooBiker 🤣🤣🤣

[@Saddlebags73]

Creepers everywhere 🤷🏻‍♂️ There’s a handful of hardcore socialbaggers that have made it to all of them 🤗 My mission this summer is to find some sunshine 🫤 Have a good weekend my friend 👋🏼

[@NooBiker]

Oooh summer! Have they announced when it is? I want to book the day off!

[@Saddlebags73]

It will be a surprise 😳

[@NooBiker]

[@lilynorthover8378]

My plans are to finally complete my CBT. Just the road ride to go. Long story why I haven't done it yet. But I now have a secondhand Honda Vision 110 in red because red bikes go faster.😊

[@NooBiker]

Put stripes on, it'll go even faster! Good luck and ride safe 👍

[@LordBilious]

Lovely, as usual, to catch up with you at the BOS and the SocialBags ride- I've attended 100% of the SocialBags rides that I could get to, does that count? A tour of the Swiss and Italian Alps for me soon and I'm hoping to sneak off to The Bike Shed when in London with family, too.

[@NooBiker]

Oooh let me know when you plan to visit the Bike Shed. You're a good egg turning up for these rides so far away from base. I'm thinking I might go to Luxembourg and the Black forest after Folembray this year but depends on money and business...

[@LordBilious]

@@NooBiker early part of July for the Bike Shed- if I can get away while the girls do shopping. The Black Forest is on my list of places to visit.

[@NooBiker]

@@LordBilious drop me a DM closer to the time. I'll try to free up some time 👍

[@kimetogo]

Hope they deal with that crazy driver, we don't need people like that on the road. If they do nothing would certainly post the video. Cheers

[@NooBiker]

I don't have video of it, but SloRida did. I put a link in the description and in a pinned comment

[@EpicAdamMotovlogs]

Someone kept his middle finger up at us during the SB ride out. People don't like bikers. I'm making a video soon, talking about how car drivers hate bikers and cyclists

[@NooBiker]

Car drivers bought the lie that cars give them freedom. When they discover that it doesn't, they can't admit they were mugs and blame everyone else.

[@EpicAdamMotovlogs]

@@NooBiker I get more hate when I'm cycling. That's justified though

[@NooBiker]

@@EpicAdamMotovlogs I don't agree that it's justified

[@SloboloboVFR]

With the amount of miles you plan on doing maybe grab a few shares in Michelin lol.

[@NooBiker]

That is not a bad shout! 🤔

[@SOLOMOTOUK]

Omg Noo just watched that video he should be took of the road permanently 👍

[@NooBiker]

I just don't want him to end up hurting someone 😨

@@NooBikerdriving like that is unacceptable the way he cut in between the bikes shocking
