Ipswich Marina and Woodbridge - Two Suffolk Gems

[@room3663]

Lovely Sunday morning watching Dobbs out and about. Thanks again for the quality vlogs.

[@tnetroP]

Honestly that supercub is gorgeous. I'd love one.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Same!!

[@pharmazan1091]

Happy Birthday to Monica from Colorado.

[@monikameraki]

Thank you! ☺️

[@pamelasergeant4311]

Beautiful Cat 🐈 😻

[@darrenmcallister1307]

All the times I have been to Ipswich I have never visited the waterfront marina!! I shall indeed put this on my checklist when I am next in Ipswich. Thank you both for this brilliant content!!

[@md2528]

Ipswich! I had no idea - perception changed. It’s even got a marina. You’re a one man tourist board 😂👍. My only knowledge of the place previously was it had a football team that i remember from my panini sticker book as a kid and Alan Partridge introducing “Ipswich based hotel lobby wine-bar band, Glenn Ponder and Lazarus” 😂 top work again. 😎

[@LexWilson]

"Glenn Ponder and Lazarus" 😂 AP putting Ipswich on the map

[@volt8684]

Fantastic and the music gives it such a feelgood factor

[@Cuddleybrowneyes]

Just started watching your vids, --- they are wonderful. Talking about motorcycles and local culture and history all while listening to Erik Satie, --- brilliant!

[@SimonGough64]

Was in Woodbridge for the day last weekend. Lovely place.

[@alanlake5220]

Woodbridge my fav place for a ride out to and chill out at

[@Bokeronidas]

Congratulations for your vids, it,s very very very nice. I love UK and your sites and cities. Sorry for my English. Best regards from Malaga, Spain.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Gracias Jesus!!🙂🙌🙌

[@peterk6077]

Lovely sunny video, could be Miami! 🙂 Great music too. Thanks for the gloves tip, just ordered a pair and they are very good 👍

[@oblahdes]

My late Uncle Ivan lived in Colchester. Wolsey Probate and Anglia Research in Ipswich is handling his affairs right now. I had never paid attention to anything Ipswich and there you were less than a mile from people I'm having dealings with.. Here I am in Austin, Texas. I do Google Earth but you and Monika make it fun touring with music and all. Learn so much about bikes and gear too. Now at my age I wont pick up a bike, too accident prone, but sure do enjoy yall's talents and adventures. We're salmon lovers so I understand the fresh salmon Monika's Mum's cat needs. Take care and loved your red sofa chat.

[@TheScott7878]

Love the Cub Freddy .l. Oh that red Citroen wow my uncle had one in France he used to pile his kids my brother and I into Late sisties early 70s.. fitting my billet indicators to mr Speedmaster this week.. The de-cat was a major success. Anyone that owns a Speedmaster don’t think about it just do it.. throttle response is butter smooth as is the throttle response, best of all it runs so cool now fans hardly comes on. Best best is the deep rumble sounds like a spitfire😀😀😀😀😀🤗 and not silly loud this is on the stock cans.

[@Brian-tb1zs]

I just received my de-cat for my Speedmaster, glad to hear it helps the throttle response, I need to get it installed

[@henryhartley9993]

Nice one, beautiful place...

[@peterhollis8291]

Superb Sunday chill Vlog, outstanding content and editing as usual guys! Happy Birthday Monika!

[@monikameraki]

Thank you! ☺️

[@Neilisatwin]

I do love a bit elderflower cordial, haha, rock n roll dude, of yeah

[@Steven-Brooks]

Just brilliant. Whether you’re into bikes or not you’re presenting skills are top notch as well as your video quality. Really interesting and diverse set of content with positive vibes. We need more creators like you. Keep up the good work, you’ve got a subscriber right here!

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks so much!🙂

[@p.chakraborty4453]

1:30 that's a noice looking cat ! Whoa that's now become a stubborn cat. Good shots of the cat . Very interesting choice of music ,elegant.

[@greyriddance64]

Loved the Sutton Hoo ship! My great-grandfather worked on a similar excavation during the fascist regime in Italy: the ships of Nemi. You can even see him in action in some videos on youtube (no kidding, old Pathé and Luce footage). Those ships came out of the mud, then got burnt in a fire ☹. Thanks for another great and chill video!

[@craigt001]

Love your videos Freddie, style, content, presentation, music, the lot.Brilliant. Keep them coming!!

[@rickparkinmoto]

I've got the same boots. They're my absolute favourites. All day comfortable and great for country walks when you reach your destination.

[@garryclarke-kray4071]

Another informative and chilled video Freddie , very enjoyable

[@cannedcatfood377]

Thanks for the ideas of places to see. My wife and I hope to see England next year. Cheers from Canada.

[@Chokkan]

I love the less than confident 'hmmm' at 9:57. Another great vid. I'll be citing you as inspiration when I start filming on my bike next year (waiting lists).

[@spencer3466]

Grest video Freddie, as a local it's great to see Ipswich in a positive setting for a change 👍

[@MrPerrogaton]

What a nice music man!

[@TheBendalina]

I have never had a bike and probably never will! But I'm addicted to your videos best on KZbin. Good luck to you.

[@davidchampkin5999]

Ispwich Waterfront looks amazing . I would also recommend Pin Mill and Shotley Marina

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks David- saved to my list!:)

[@juliangreaves5684]

Great video, Freddie. The centre of the old town of Woodbridge is worth stopping for too. Outdoor seating in the square with cafés serving drinks and food.

[@amateurel4129]

Great video

[@FunAllDayLong4353]

I learnt how to ride a motorcycle going around a field on a Honda Cub, or "plastic rat" as they were nicknamed back then. "Placki-rat" in local parlance. A lot of teachers used them to commute back in the day, especially biology teachers with beards. Not a lot of people know that....

[@FreddieDobbs]

Ahhhh that's brilliant- I love these little insights, thank you!🙌🙌

[@LexWilson]

Freddie, me and my girlfriend absolutely love your videos - the videography, your insights, your history morsels thrown in here and there - fabulous stuff. I've just started listening to your podcast; I had a similar frivolous entry into motorcycling....and some years later I too settled on a bonnie. This one's a keeper. Keep up the great work!

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks so much Lex!:)

[@richfromlondon3254]

Good to see I'm not alone in constantly subconsciously cancelling my indicators!

[@russelldavis7108]

I notice more and more boat related content creeping in Freddie (no bad thing) ,nice vid as usual.

[@RevZolution]

Shame about the Africa Twin. The brand new Africa Twin Adventure like that one that was pushed over starts from £14,649 with no extras.... That one had a top box, crash bars, spot lights and a touring screen alone would have been 15k. Tragic. The base Africa Twin DCT I reviewed around Wales started at £13,949. Very pricy bikes. But well worth it. Great for all terrains.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Wow, I had no idea they were that much! Incredible looking bikes though!

[@fiascotc]

After subscribing' your channel, I sold my honda dominator and kawasaki vn 800 and next week I am gettin' a Triumph Bonneville Bobber. Awesome channel , Keep up the good work matey... Best wishes from Turkey (country one :) )

[@Nathan_R_Jones]

Great stuff as always....Making a list from all these videos of where to visit on my bike. Sorry to have pointed out the indicator cancelling to you! Personally I've embraced it, I'd rather get repetitive strain injury than have someone pull out on me due to a false signal.

[@wltrlg]

First like, than watch. No risk 🤙🏻

[@freemenofengland2880]

Really enjoyed the video, you have great presenting style as always and you and Monica have a gift for finding interesting things to film. Have you been to the Brooklands museum yet? That would make a great video, especially on a sunny day.

[@heidcam]

Cracking video Freddie! We’ve needed this weather for a while. Will you still go out in winter? 👍

[@markhenry192]

Very swish video Freddie and nice music. Heart breaking to see that Africa Twin on the floor, there are some bad people around for sure. No riding again today thanks to the UK weather! Might have to catch up on some missed Freddie Dobbs videos! Thanks guys

[@crumblymal8479]

Freddie you could have been sat at a café in a Mediterranean marina so cool and I remember my first bike on the road was a what we called Honda 50 step through and that new cub basically looks the same style mine had a dual seat and a straight through exhaust but I had some great fun on her I actually swapped an Ariel 200 two stroke for it when I was 15 because the Ariel was to big as I had never ridden on the road .Wow if only I still had either and that coat is sooo spoilt . Great watch whilst having my breakfast on a Sunday morning cheers : )

[@allsearpw3829]

Hi , a really relaxing video from Freddie and Monika , once again , there is always some thing of interest , pointed out on the places visited . One big mistake I made was not learning to sail , as the wind is free , our rib does about 3 miles to a gallon cruising nearly as expensive to run as a small white cats dinner , for heaves sake do not tell the cat there is a difference between , farmed and fresh line caught salmon . LOL . Our 3 cats get a lecture if they leave their food , and told cats in other parts of the world are starving and would give a hind leg for that , to no avail , they just sit there and Bumble mutters , not this again . Happy birthday to Monika , how about an up grade to the cushion for a present ? Ride and stay safe , enjoy and thank you for the video .

[@peterrobinson8469]

Great video was watching it at 07:10 this morning getting ready to go out on the rebel 1100. I took note of the lock and chain you got from B&Q and I'm going to have a look see what they have. Also ordered soft saddle bags from sw motech for the rebel soft bags look great on the triumph. I'm not sure I can afford to keep watching your videos.

[@FreddieDobbs]

My apologies Peter!😆 I've heard very good things about SW Motech! I hope you enjoyed the ride🙂

[@FunAllDayLong4353]

Such a coincidence - quite a few of my teachers also drove Deux Chevaux as well as Honda Cubs. Ranging from a long haired hippy music teacher to, you guessed it, the biology teachers with beards.... :-D

[@rusnepranciulyte9196]

Milkutis a new youtube star ⭐️

[@banzobeans]

14:42 Just saw there's a ferry between Harwich and Rotterdam.

[@splodge5714]

If we ever get anymore hot sunny days I'll have a ride out to Ipswich, the marina looks a nice spot for a coffee. Do they still have a speedway team in the town? I was a big fan of the sport growing up in the 60's but there's not many teams left in England now.

[@p.chakraborty4453]

I want you to review the Triumph Trident , seems like a bike of your taste, pretty retro while being badass. How do you guys get these beautiful intros ! Awesome video as always.

[@p.chakraborty4453]

I'll be gladly waiting for you to get your hands on one of em.

[@londonbiker]

Crikey if Blowfeld finds out Monikas mum smuggled his cat out of Lithuania to the UK, he'll be very angry!

[@ohn1234567]

Another fantastic video Freddie! You mentioned that your Triumph in comparison to other motorcycles is rather cheap. How is the reliability of your Bonneville?

[@banzobeans]

8:04 🤣 yeah you got it pretty bad.

[@alexmorgan3435]

Don't use one disc lock but two, either side of the brake calliper so it reduces chances of your bike being dragged. Also use one on the rear disc if space. Use disc locks with motion alarms attached. Also use an Abus D lock Granite Plus short one through the front wheel spokes and brake discs. Always park next to a nicer more expensive bike so thieves will target this instead of your bike. Fit a tracker. Or as you say have a bike that on the face of it doesn't look like it is worth much. Some one who buys a brand new Africa Twin to ride around London needs their head examined.

[@5tevieb954]

What’s next on your loan bike list? I’d like to see you on an XSR.

[@5tevieb954]

@@FreddieDobbs love scrambler 1100 pro

[@markb3180]

I have a suggestion for you. Review the Honda cub and take it off road, at least it wont be like the big heavy lump you took last time!

[@KeithChegwin24]

I did mention the indicator tapping around 10 videos ago 😂

[@FreddieDobbs]

Ahhhh I know, but the concerned comments have continued to grow, and Monika showed me a video of the extent of my problem- I was shocked!😆

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

Honda Cubs are awful to ride in my opinion. It's the heel / toe gearchange. 8:31 2CV6 alert: I have owned two, plus a Dyane. I really like the simple dash on your bike, Freddie. Particularly the warning light cluster. I like that overshirt. Interesting video. Ipswich looks a nice place. Only been through it once. On my R1100GS in about '98.

[@themoog3889]

Indicator tap....is that to check they're off ? I press mine 3 times after using them , even thinking of fitting an indicator buzzer !

[@xiologyCNX89]

Do you plan some roadtrips through Europe when the whole situation is better? Would love to see your Bonneville riding in Switzerland, Italy or Spain.

[@FreddieDobbs]

100%! In a few months I should be doing six months through Europe for the winter (so long as all goes to plan!)🙂

[@Lyingleyen]

Freddie, couldn't help noticing there's a lot of "artifacts" on the video. Perhaps keep the resolution slightly lower to see if that helps. Otherwise get a better performing SSD card.

[@richarddelasota1812]

What a coincidence! There’s an Ipswich on the coast of Massachusetts in the US. Anyway, the best coffee shop there is called Zumi’s. Worth a visit if you’re in the area.

[@garydaver6635]

A little spooky10.2 mins in at the Darth Vader training school mind Freddie. Gary from the Toon

[@markbright7845]

Thinking of relocating?

[@FreddieDobbs]

Yep! We're heading off for the winter to Spain, and then after that we'll very possibly be coming back to Ipswich:)

[@travish3130]

Is the Noah’s Arc looking boat still at the marina?

[@darkoflight4938]

My former bosses dad had a cat who ONLY ate shrimps. Same procedure there, no shrimps laying on the plate for any longer time. They had to be as fresh as possible. Pathetic indeed. And yes, them Cub´s are cool!!!!

[@kwr6100]

Love the content keep it up... please un-tuch your t shirt

[@neilurquhart8622]

Not really interested in all your clothing promotions but enjoy the travel stuff

[@Ralf916]

Blimey... Ipswich has changed somewhat, only remember the football ground as kid growing up there nearby, gunna have to make a visit...thanks for the insight.loving your vlogs.
