What great roads

[@alistairbox]

That's Tuscany for you! To be fair, the rest of Italy is just as gorgeous, but Tuscany has got endless hills and mountains that are crisscrossed by winding roads, both on and off pavement, that beg to be ridden, whether you enjoy your scenery in a blur on a Superbike, or in 4K, taking your time to admire the medieval villages that dot the countryside.

@@alistairbox the X-ADV strikes me as the perfect bike for those roads 😎

[@alistairbox]

@@TheDervMan This bike is very good for many roads, and these roads can be enjoyed on a multitude of bikes, slow and fast. I'm therefore blessed with a great combination. Over time, I lean ever more towards off road, so I'm starting to really feel the limitations of the X-ADV in that respect. For everything else, the X is a really special, a fun and versatile bike, with little else out there as comfortable yet capable.

Wrong music

[@alistairbox]

Thanks for the constructive comment, but could you please explain how is it wrong what would you have chosen instead? Thanks!

[@mrakmal6978]

@@alistairbox the bike sound is the real music!

[@alistairbox]

@@mrakmal6978 Yeah.. I completely agree with you!!! As you can see from many of my other videos, I prefer to record the engine rather than add music in post. The thing is that it's a bit more laborious, as I record the engine separately with a Sony Digital Sound Recorder, and not through the camera. That implies syncing all the video files with the corresponding audio files in post! Sometimes I don't feel like going through the trouble and so I take the easy way out... music. At the moment I film with an Insta360 Go 2, and record with a Sony ICD-UX570 digital recorder. If you, or anyone reading, know of a more streamlined and efficient workflow, I'd be happy to adopt it and have pure engine sound in all my videos!
