This Is Just The Best Way To Spend A Day - Llyn Ogwen, Snowdonia | Aprilia Tuareg 660

[@economicalrides]

Wow, what a stunning road. Presumably the local authority had to use up their cone quota for the year or risk getting it reduced for the following year 😂 Other than that, a truly stunning route, bucket list territory 👍 Cheers Pete 🥃🥃 Garry & Ruby ❤️🐕

[@HippoDrones]

It was pretty mega, absobloominlutly marvellous! 😀

[@markfortin8286]

Even better than the previous video! That must have been an amazing ride.

[@HippoDrones]

It really was mate... If you enjoyed this, wait till you see the final vid from the trip in a couple of weeks time! 🙂

[@TheGorillaBiker]

I must try edit some of my Welsh videos. Such a beautiful place and lovely geography. That was suuuuuuch a nice road :D I'd have watched more, and just listened to the bike :D I may have even ridden that road tbh! Looks familiar :D

[@HippoDrones]

You should indeedydoo... 🙂 and yuss, very pretty place, even when the sun isn't out! Am glad you enjoyed and want to watch more, I have a longer video from the trip probably coming out next week which has this road in reverse along with even more incredible roads including a gorgeous twisty coastal road.... I imagine if you did Snowdonia area, then you would have done this road, I think it is the A5, a very popular road as you can imagine!

[@CaptainCrankyMotovlogger]

Yeah that was WELL worth it, what a road, what a ride, what scenery!! You can be totally forgiven for having an "everything is just great " moment Pete!

[@HippoDrones]

I do love riding a valley between some good mountains, super stunning! 🙂

[@TheRhythmicBiker]

I do love Snowdonia, I haven't been in ages, it always looks awesome no matter the weather. Sometimes you don't need a topic, just a bike and some great roads with scenery. Great video mate, hope you're continuing to enjoy yourself

[@HippoDrones]

It is gorgeous there... even if raining... but so much better in the funshine! 😀 Thank Rhythmic, aye mate, just got back from a camping trip in mid-Wales with Pez and Phil 🙂

[@twistymountain]

Such a nice feeling, when the road and view align and for those few moments while you pass through, feeling the wind, the world is perfect. Will be in Wales later this month, Noob is coming too - I'll challenge him to capture that 'prefect' feeling!

[@HippoDrones]

Aye indeedy... yeah he mentioned he was going on a tour with you, I hope you have a blast 🙂

[@davexs]

I gotta say mate, I'm so glad you shared that little snippet. Nuff said

[@HippoDrones]

🙂 It is gorgeous up there isn't it! 🙂

[@Banditmanuk]

We were in Wales last weekend, some stunning riding there. Looked an amazing ride. Congratulations on reaching 5K, well deserved.

[@HippoDrones]

Am heading back over this weekend camping with Pez etc 🙂 It was cracking mate, loved the trip 🙂 Ahh thanks mate

Thanks David, I love Wales

[@bikerbuddy3166]

Definitely one of fav places and what was a regular playground in my working day so many development miles accumulated there absolutely beautiful 🤩

[@HippoDrones]

Now that is a good playground to test new bikes out! 🙂

[@HippoDrones]

The next Wales vid has us on the Llandudno Coast road, stunning.

[@the_mad_leprechaun]

Hello. Nice to meet you at the ABR! Thank you for the stickers I will put them to good use! Take care!

[@HippoDrones]

Hey bud, yes mate, ace to meet you too. It was fun doing the quiz :-D I'll be adding your sticker to my top box as soon as I get a chance :-)

Wow indeed! ................👍

[@RoadsOfOz]

Amazing scenery on that trip.

[@HippoDrones]

it was absobloominlutely fantasticals mate! 🙂

[@CalmBiker]

Been riding in Wales a few times. The roads are great, the scenery great, the rain can be problematic though. I remember burning out a hairdryer in the hotel trying to dry my gloves and having to pour out my boots. Still a great trip though.

[@HippoDrones]

Hahaha... yeah... like Scotland, all 4 seasons in a day!

[@oldwildandfree]

Nice one. That was the beautiful Tryfan on the left. Great to climb up, or even walk up👍

[@HippoDrones]

It was gorgeous, I can imagine it is quite a climb? 🙂

[@KODEGREY]

That place is SO absolutely gorgeous!!! I would really LOVE to ride that road one day! It would have been a crime not to film it. Great video Hippo!!!

[@HippoDrones]

It was pretty darn awesome 🙂👍 Thanks mate, how you doing?

[@KODEGREY]

@@HippoDrones doing ok.

[@HippoDrones]

@@KODEGREY Awesome stuff. Am looking forward to catching up on your content during the week when I'm back from holidays

[@Viper6-MotoVlogger]

Those were indeed some fantastic views mate.🍻👍

[@HippoDrones]

It is stunning isn't it! 🙂

[@Saddlebags73]

I love Snowdonia. I know exactly how you feel riding through the mountains 🙂 Heading up for a few days in August. I haven’t done Scotland yet either, which is almost shameful.

[@HippoDrones]

You'll want a full face helmet for Scotland, but we'll worth the miles if you get good weather!

[@Saddlebags73]

@@HippoDrones Ah I thought you hadn’t been to Scotland, my bad. Yea I’ve heard it’s busy with insects 😏

[@HippoDrones]

@@Saddlebags73 I was based up there when in the RN, midge he'll, but amazing if you can avoid them on a bike 🙂

[@mellowr1]

the scottish highlands around inverness the roads are awesome and empty!! from the A82 onwards. Love scotland. Love to live there😎

[@HippoDrones]

I loved riding up there when I was in the RN still... but I'd not want to live there lol

[@mellowr1]

@Hippo-Drones I love it. Great roads, peaceful, scenic and lack of chavs👍

[@HippoDrones]

@@mellowr1 hahaha 😀

[@RSVRusso]

Nice little video that mate.... We do sometimes take it for granted that we have countryside like this on our doorstep. Oh and never thought of painting cones green (although might defeat the object) 😀

[@HippoDrones]

Thank you. Haha... yeah, they might not get seen so easily 🤣

[@matthewcoleman8267]

I'm going south Wales next week for a few days on the bike. Can't wait!

[@HippoDrones]

Awesome stuff, I hope you have a lovely trip mate 🙂

[@SOLOMOTOUK]

That’s so close to the same views as riding the A82 at glencoe very similar nice 👍👍

[@HippoDrones]

It sounds idyllic :-)

[@LordBilious]

What amazing scenery to commemorate your 5K subs with.👍

[@HippoDrones]

Haha, aye... I'll celebrate that milestone once KZbin stops messing with my sub-count! 😀

[@WolfyFam]

Amazing scenery! 😊👏

[@HippoDrones]

Wales is beautiful, you should get over there if you get a chance! 🙂

[@WolfyFam]

@@HippoDrones I’ll try when I can 😊

[@HippoDrones]

@@WolfyFam 🙂👍

[@BigDaveTALKS]

"quite a horrific long journey"😆. Yeah but it is totally worth it. I totally understand where you are coming from, which is why I wasn't talking much on my trip. Man that is beautiful country to be riding through. Is there more?

[@HippoDrones]

I have one more video from this trip which will be going up on the channel in a couple of weeks... that one is quite epic, with more of this stuff and some incredible coastal roads

[@crugwrf]

Wow what a view epic place to ride you thoughts away, thanks pete 😎👍

[@HippoDrones]

It was amazing mate I can't wait to do some trail riding up there 🙂

[@NooBiker]

Good stuff. I've signed up for a trip there with Anthony (same group I did the North of England tour with last year). Going to be there over the ABR weekend (so missing that again another year!) Scotland would be nice too, but I'm also going France in August.

[@HippoDrones]

Sounds like you are galivanting all over the place... AWESOME to hear mate! 🙂

[@soilsmanadv6673]

Fantastic Ride Pete!

[@HippoDrones]

Tha ks mate 🙂

Im going to North Wales in August then going to Chedder for a few days straight after. Congratulations on 5k subs

[@HippoDrones]

Ahh nice one, have fun mate... Chedder is lovely :-)

[@HippoDrones]

Oh, and ty for the congrats 👍

[@flatcapcaferacer]

I always wonder when I see such nice scenery why no one has seen fit to spoil it by putting up a bunch of houses there?.

[@HippoDrones]

Thank goodness for national parks! 😀

[@UncleLongbeard]

I love that place... not much more to say ;)

[@HippoDrones]

It is 😀

[@wraggy_moto]

Share everything you said about Wales it’s fabulous on 2 wheels.

[@HippoDrones]

is amazing isn't it mate! 🙂

[@EpicMotorcycleAdventures]

A5 by any chance? I climbed Tryfan once upon a time. The weather was not on my side that day. It was obviously saving itself for you.

[@HippoDrones]

Aye A5 🙂 I'm not much of a climber... I can imagine it was spectacular though

[@EpicMotorcycleAdventures]

@@HippoDrones the view was epic

[@HippoDrones]

@@EpicMotorcycleAdventures 🤩

[@craigyllyn]

That was the A5 travelling north from just after Capel Curig. Shortly after the video ended you’ll have passed a tiny left hand turn. If you didn’t you missed something rather nice …..😉 What have the Roma....Well the Romans Gave us this! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2rJdaSqedFqiKc
