Out and about on Harold the Royal Enfield Himalayan through north south east and west of the best county in the country, Yorkshire.

Well, that truely is a beautiful Church in Darrington, and pleased me to see a still of it. Thanks. I have always enjoyed the beauty, and savoured the tranquility of Churches, and will often stop, on my travels around Europe, to have a mooch round those that catch my eye, streching my legs while doing so. It must have rained there two months non-stop, there's sooo much water on the roads..., and I think you unknowingly gave us the reason why there is, as you said, the "river Went", ha ha very funny ole chap! I originally signed up here for "Goldie", but have since found so much more to enjoy, in your YT offerings..., keep 'em coming, see ya next week.

[@andrewhayes4246]

Enjoyable vid as always, harold got a good soaking! Thanks.

[@old-n-Goldie]

Glad you appreciated the church, I find them fascinating for the history and architecture. We've just had the wettest February on record here in the UK. The river went - I actually missed that unintentional pun, thanks 😂😂😂😂 Goldie will be coming out of winter hibernation very soon.

[@millinutz]

@@old-n-Goldie I actually wrote a comment, before this one, thanking you for the mention, but it seems to have disappeared. Anyway, here it is again... Thanks, twas a good idea explaining the Gradings in the video, for any ohers that may not already know.

[@jeffreylindop5782]

[@old-n-Goldie]

A really nice ride out Rog,thanks for taking me with you--Pete 🍀🍀🍀

[@old-n-Goldie]

Cheers Pete, glad to have you along for the ride.👍🏻👍🏻

[@cbrider726]

It must take hours to research the areas that you show us and i thank you so much for your hard work 👍👍👍👍Your a star 👍👍👍👍

[@old-n-Goldie]

Cheers, it does take quite a bit of my spare time with all the research by I do enjoy it.

[@ianhalliwell8604]

I just love your rambles and knowledge around a part of Yorkshire i don't know to well. Amazed at all that water is it anywonder the back roads are in such a state.

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks Ian, so glad you're enjoying the rambles. We've just had the wettest February since records began so its not surprising there's still so much water about. Cheers.

Another great ride around the area. Haven’t been up to the castle site in Ponte, but will have to do so. Lots of great info again, much appreciated & enjoyed. There used to be a pub in the middle of Cridling Stubbs, they served rather large steaks, very nice, don’t know if you ever went there? That water place in Wormersley, I’m sure there used to be a Lightning just set back from the road. The new pipe does sound good, reckon Harold took a bit of cleaning after that trip, lol. Looking forward to the remainder of the ride. Cheers, Martin.

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks Martin hope it brought back some good memories. The pub in Cridling Stubbs was the Ancient Shepheard and its now a private house. Its the large cream painted building on the right as I ride through the village. I'm afraid Harold has got pretty dirty all through the winter but he'll be having a rest soon as Goldie will be coming back out shortly. Cheers.

[@Free_Ranger_CT110]

The new screen has definately reduced wind noise. Lots of interesting history Roger as usual, water lane lived up to it's name. And don't forget 'Pontefract cakes' 🙂

[@old-n-Goldie]

Yes, I find it much more comfortable now without the constant buffeting and the sound has improved. Totally forgot to mention the Pontefract cakes and I did think of them as I was doing the voice over cos I love em. Cheers.

[@chrislee8405]

Another great video, thanks

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks again! Cheers

[@cbrider726]

Yet another great stream .Harold sounds as good as ever.Great sound mate . Did you cover Elvington yet .If i missed it please let me know what stream it was . I really want to see it. I dont think that i have missed any. You live in a beutifull county made for riding out.I live in Ireland at the mo and was from Tarleton near Preston. I miss the local Black Pudding . Great with a couple of sausage and two eggs lol. Not to mention the good old Steak and Kidney pudding . Thanks 👍👍👍

[@ianhalliwell8604]

I live in Tarleton and such places as the recently refurbished Cock and Bottle still serve such marvellous local food.

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks for the comments. Haven't done the Elvington run yet, got a few routes planned for later in the year. I just love black pudding. When I go up to Eddys at Tadcaster for bike servicing, there's a food caravan just down the road that I go to while I'm waiting. They do bacon and black pudding sarnies, fabulous.

[@robertgresham3743]

Very interesting content, love it.

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks Robert, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers.

[@claretbuck1882]

Cracking ramble bud cheers 👍🏻

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks once again, glad you're still finding the rambles interesting. Cheers.

[@simongilbert2704]

motor has a definite thump to it now ;;

[@old-n-Goldie]

Yes, it's pretty much run in now and the new silencer gives it a bit extra sound. Cheers.

[@Ken_H_]

Interesting as always, I thought it had been wet over the border here in Lancashire but jeez!

[@old-n-Goldie]

Thanks Ken. I'm afraid much of the country has suffered flooding over this winter, be glad when it dries up a bit. Cheers.

[@TheNorfolkThunderbolt]

Hello! Midnight again! How quickly it comes around again!

[@old-n-Goldie]

Hi Steven 👍

[@TheNorfolkThunderbolt]

Did you notice the Ghostbusters car parked in Knottingley ?

[@old-n-Goldie]

Yes, noticed it as I drove by, it took me a bit by surprise when I realised what it was. Nearly went back for some photos but was running out of time.

[@millinutz]

1st !!!!

[@BlakesPipes]

just started to watch, the wind buffering did not bother me! lol but i like the sound of a muffler. if you do not have that sound, then those who complain should watch car driving channels. just me i guess.

[@old-n-Goldie]

The wind buffeting was more for my personal comfort but I think it has made a bit of a difference on the recorded sound. Thanks for watching.

[@millinutz]

Hi Steven.

[@millinutz]

Steven, where are ya today? We don't really notice it when you're here first, but we, or at least I do, when you're not!

[@simongilbert2704]

yes ,, i keep telling people those adv type screens are a joke , i am afraid people are like sheep and the makers just put this crap on to follow the leader , ,, i see the roads are very badly flooded still ,

[@old-n-Goldie]

You may well be right Simon. This is my first encounter with this type of bike and screen and the ride is far better without it. I think the flooding is pretty much countrywide, the ground is just waterlogged and there's nowhere for the excess to go.
