Charlie, that was brilliant and memories made.... Wish my kids / young adults would come out with me, even just for the ride, never mind camping! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it. 😊

[@jimstewart2192]

You know what?? When all the REAL hardened riders like me stores there bike till spring. Up pops you and defies the rules due to weather 😂well!!!! All I can say is.... Brave... Gut and steel and well done Lassie 👍

[@haxan6663]

I ride all year but stopped camping about 10 years ago, in my 50s. And I never camped before April!

[@restdayrider]

Thank you 😊

[@NickMusselle]

Fantastic to see mother and daughter out exploring together; creating memories is so important. Thank you for the great videos.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@LickyDischarge]

I always think it shows great success as a parent if your children want to spend time with you. I spend a lot of time with my mum and dad doing stuff ❤ Parents aren’t around forever.

[@restdayrider]

Thank you 😊

[@colinlakin]

Children seem to be😂

[@bidouchonsan]

A good memory for later with your daughter. Nice little trip in the cold of January.

[@andrewwalker-lx5py]

That's brilliant thanks for getting back so quickly 😊😊

[@michaelburgess2993]

Hi Charlie. I really enjoyed your spirit of adventure for the middle of January. That looks like an area I would like to go this year, as I am around an hours drive away. You were very good and Roger at riding through that flooded road. Keep giving us the spirit of adventure that you always do. Stay safe.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@tomwilburn4856]

Beautiful . Got my youngest daughter out for a ride Christmas time. One of the best memories in a long time with her. Her 1 st time as a pillion

[@restdayrider]

Creating lasting memories, priceless. ☺️

[@SarkyGaming]

Great video, you two have such a great relationship really nice to see. Wish I had a riding buddy especially one crazy enough to camp in 0°c ! Really enjoyed it, looking forward to more adventures

[@restdayrider]

Thank you. 😊

[@trishschofield7808]

A small Mr. Buddy heaters are really great for the tent. Propane bottles. Loved seeing the ride through the water 💦 atta girl 👏👏🌺

[@edwardkaminsky8142]

😊 Always a pleasure to view your adventures Charlie. The footage and music at the end of your clip (Deep Lake - Romeo ) I 🙏 pray that is exactly like the road to heaven, with the music. Holy Sweet relief😅. The picture of your daughter and yourself is priceless.

[@restdayrider]

Awesome, thank you!

[@randolph795]

[@user-rs6gl5lx6f]

Plenty of fresh air. Can't beat it. 👍👍👍

[@alaneverett2531]

Time with kids priceless ❤

[@adrianstrand1120]

That looks a brilliant tent, I bet on your own if windy it’s a fight to get it set up, nothing stops this all weather biker girl 👍🏻

[@restdayrider]

Absolutely 😊

[@richardbritain7435]

Well done. Great family time

[@drost582]

Always enjoy your adventures, think Dragon Rally was first video I seen of yours. End of June is our 36 th Anniversary, we are heading on bike trip to Newfoundland with 30 other Veterans. Will be looking forward to your Dragon Rally. Thanks for video!

[@restdayrider]

Happy Anniversary when it comes round! 😊

[@drost582]

Fantastic time with your daughter! stuff that makes memories.

[@lyndapayne6716]

Great video Charlie and Georgie, thanks. Lovely little campsite, stayed there a few times, in campervan and caravan but never tried bike and tent..... yet.

[@beakittelscherz5419]

Ok... Now I add a fresh pair of Socks to my survival kit😂 That was a fun Ride to watch! Hey there Charlie from Germany#CarpenterBea

[@restdayrider]

Hahaha definitely one to add in. 😂

[@richmallett9265]

Another great video, thanks!

[@restdayrider]

My pleasure!

[@user-pr7nt1sb3r]

100% respect.

[@graemewillgress3780]

Wonderful. Thank you Charlie for letting us in :)

[@mervwhitney7229]

That reminded me of the trips when I took my sons on the back (one at a time), from when their legs could reach the foot rests. Good times from almost 40 years ago. I wish you a safe 2024 as you explore all the nice places Charlie.

[@Jules750..]

A another enjoyable vlog Charlie can't wait to see some of your adventures in 2024❤

[@chema1546]

Ok 🥶👏☕

[@johnbiddal5951]

From a wrinkly old Biking camper, any tree can be a danger in high winds Charlie, but the ones to really watch out for even in fine windless weather are Beech Trees, young or old, diseased or healthy. I've seen them suddenly drop a bough in mid summer with not even a breeze blowing. So no camping under Beech Trees, even in fine weather, otherwise our nutty Nomad could get flattened. 😄 👍

[@restdayrider]

Thanks for the tip 😊

[@Hoopyfrood345]

Sealskinz socks for dry feet 😉👍

[@leswilliams-zl2nk]

Great video charlie and George Thank you for sharing the camping trip with us.xx.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@grahamebell7505]

Yet another fab video Charlie, thank you. You're my Hero!

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@davericketts9101]

I thoroughly enjoyed that. Thank you,

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Caledonia3104]

lovely video.... can't help noticing the nervy breathing when daughter jumped on bike. Took you out your comfort zone for a bit 😀you nailed it though. I don't mind riding all year round but i'm not sleeping outside in January. I'm 60...i've earned my electric blanket and bed badge

[@Norfolkbiker50]

Yep, 59 yesterday and right there with you. For more than 30 years my bike was my daily transport and I did go to rallies all year round, I've camped with snow on the ground a couple of times but I'm afraid that like you these days I like my central heating!

[@georginarixon6882]

She’s always scared when I jump on 😂

[@restdayrider]

😂

[@billcotton1551]

Really nice Charlie! I bet you and Georgie will never forget this trip.

[@luckyphil6486]

All the times I come down from Manchester to Bournemouth I go down that way past Swindon , Marlborough etc and didn’t realise Choppers Cafe was there . Me and my friend are heading that way in May so will def stop off for a cuppa. Thanks Charlie for another great vid 👍

[@jasondalley4607]

Another great vlog Charlie. God I love where we live and thank you for showing everyone how beautiful north Wiltshire is. You have ridden over all my most favourite routes in this video, especially the back road coming into Marlborough. Clarissa the Commando is almost ready for her debut at the Bristol Classic Bike Show and I can’t wait to get back on the road with you and the guys. Cheers Jay Dalley

[@billybluetank86]

Marlborough/Salisbury/Andover some of my fave roads round that way…. Just not brave enough for January rides😂 lovely to see you share with ur family

[@restdayrider]

Thank you 😊

[@derrickmurphy9859]

Very good camp and great to have good company. Its always a long night camping in the winter.

[@DukeDyson]

I love Choppers Cafe, a great destination and a nice ride there for me 🙂

[@GarethMachin-rb2sg]

Nice video

[@speedfinder1]

Hey Charlie! Thanks for posting. (I must admit to watching with a hot cuppa.) I was very tickled to see you warming yourself in the loo with the overheat heater. It brought back memories of doing the same thing in the 1980s as a Town beat Policeman! I also noted with some degree of being impressed with your road positioning. I was thinking, Hmmm, "Someone's had some training!" All in all a very enjoyable watch! Cheers. 👍👍.

[@alvinplummer9308]

This is so important to teach the next generation how to stay alive

[@lucyboot2658]

So good to have your daughter along for the ride. Mine rides as well. We took the Himalayan and scram out recently. Soo much fun and special to spend the time together.

[@kevbaldwin9552]

Brilliant Charlie, making memories, and I always have a squashed flat toilet roll in the stuffer bag at the end of a season too 😀

[@restdayrider]

I think it's compulsory!

[@johnpagejr.7628]

Great video Charlie! I wood go riding here in Washington State in the North West US but it has been down to 0 F or -17 C with snow on the ground. I have ridden in cold snowy weather but that was many years ago when I was in my 20's. Not some thing I want to do at the ripe old age of 72.

[@restdayrider]

-17 would stop me too! 🥶

[@05gt99]

Well done to you all, thanks for sharing your trip.

[@restdayrider]

Our pleasure! 😊

[@christopherbrown1591]

Loved that Charlie. Heart warming to see a mum & daughter mini adventure. Thank you both 🎉x.

Great Video Charlie you’re an awesome mum my girls used to love riding pillion when they were younger i need to get out and brave the weather ❤

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it. 😊

[@Karl3642]

Charlie, you are about as hardcore as hardcore gets, huge respect ! I’m building up to thought of freezing to death at my first Dragon Rally this year, while you do it most weekends just for fun 😂👍.

[@restdayrider]

Hahahhaa! Dragon will be a test for anyone!

[@boringtouringwhenpouring5038]

It's looking like a cold dragon rally this year. Just think IF you had the new himi you could fill your hot water bottle from the radiator 😊😂.

[@restdayrider]

😂

[@andrewscadden9113]

Thank you Charlie & Georgie, always a delight watching your adventures...you demolish all my arguments to stay at home...it’s too cold, too wet, etc 😀🏍👍

[@restdayrider]

Great to hear! 😊

[@milesashley2375]

Great video, on some of my fav roads…looking forward to Dragon!

[@restdayrider]

Same here! 😊

[@traveling...mohammedalreth9632]

انت رائع استمر 👍🏻🌹

[@Tekjoe25]

Savernake brings back great memories with our kids there when they were young. Thanks for the excellent video. Camping there on our bikes in Spring. Heart warming to see you and your daughter braving January and your enjoyment of each others company and the simple pleasures in this beautiful area.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@MrBeracah]

Charlie you have a heart like a lion, camping in January. Lovely time with Georgie, happy memories. Thanks for sharing.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@ChrisyC567]

Love this one... 1st time I've ever seen mother and daughter out on a bike together....

[@georginarixon6882]

Not the last time you’ll see it !! 🎉

Great vid again, choppers do a great bacon roll, and you remembered the post code for the new cafe, ❤👍👌

[@restdayrider]

Choppers is great. 😊

[@MrityunjayBorah]

Royal Enfield ❤ ☠️

[@matthewmoreman4145]

Cracking video Charlie, brought back childhood memories of Savernake visits & test 'drive' of the family tent 🤗👍

[@restdayrider]

Wonderful 😊

[@MrAustina35]

Lovely Mother and Daughter video Charlie. You need waterproof boots and as a backup waterproof socks. Cold wet feet (or hands) make the whole of you feel cold. I also wear a belt with built-in handles for my granddaughter to hold onto when she goes pillion. Enjoy the Dragon.

[@restdayrider]

Thanks for the tips! 😊

[@advredbikes]

Great Small adventure Charlie. Great seeing Georgie, must be nice to camp in January, looking forward to your upcoming adventures!

[@restdayrider]

Thank you 😊

[@rickhjortsberg2711]

Really enjoyed watching this adventure Charlie. How sweet to have your daughter along. Cheers from Ohio USA.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@stanleyknife1967]

Yes, never obey a road closed sign when on motorcycle! Although there was the one time when I couldn’t even squeeze around the block. Great video and well done for going through the flood.

[@mysterybiker1717]

The two most important things, motorbikes and children, you choose the order! Lovely video.

[@restdayrider]

Yes! Thank you! 😊

[@user-sl7kb1ph6w]

Charlie & Georgie, this is a great bit of film, thank you for making it, you have a great relationship and you made me laugh a lot. Safe riding

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@JohnSmith-xw5qe]

Bought myself a Interceptor & have already started planning camping trips on my days off all thanks to you Charlie & Roger! Great video too😎👍🏻

[@restdayrider]

Great to hear! 😊

[@brockett]

Well done on a very good quality video. Camping in January .... I was never...... ever ..... that tough.

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@LadyFarrow]

Love the video. Have ordered a new Himalayan 450 which should arrive March sometime. Can’t wait to start my own adventures. Inspiring 👍

[@restdayrider]

Have fun!

[@tedcase9175]

Charlie, that was fantastic,wish my youngest boy would come out riding with me occasionally but he is always”busy” when was younger he would come on the back of me occasionally,but it is fantastic to look back at, and your making great memories, looking forward to next shenanigans,rubber side down keep saving lives in between, and thanks for both things Ted

[@restdayrider]

Thank you Ted. 😊

[@mjotd8670]

A great mum/daughter bonding trip!, fair play to the pair of you, camping in January!! NUTS, but why not?

[@restdayrider]

Why not indeed!

[@tan_ives]

Like a boss!! Both of you, if that's not a contradiction. Fair play in January as well 👍👍

[@restdayrider]

Thanks 👍

[@dieppe182]

Lovely to share the Winter adventure with you both. Made me feel like a complete wimp now! Now where's that tent....

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@mitchellsteele3878]

Hi Charlie, fair play to you getting out camping in the wet weather we have had, great to spend some time with your daughter on the camping trip, lovely part of the country, myself and my son were able to get out last weekend around Bibury area, I watched your trip up to the hub , roll on the spring and summer, all the best 👍

[@restdayrider]

Thanks 👍

[@yoursacredquest]

True grit! You can laugh when your boots are wet from fording a flooded "road closed" route, doing it with excitement instead of fear. It's great to share experiences with your children, I have fond memories of doing that too.

[@restdayrider]

Absolutely! 😊

[@kirbymarshall]

I enjoyed your camping adventure. My wife and I couldn't believe it when you pitched up exactly where we were the last time we were there!

[@restdayrider]

Wow! 😊

[@ericlunn5323]

Winter camping looks great - no heavy competition for spots!!

[@Caledonia3104]

you need help.....winter camping ...we have things called Travel Lodge 😃😃😃😃

[@ericlunn5323]

I've got one event coming up this month or next in BC.@@Caledonia3104

[@albion2742]

I believe one of Mick Jagger's kids went to Marlborough College too. We spent many Sundays in Savernake forest pick nicking with the Kids when we lived in Swindon. Now we live in Ohio USA and spend time travelling the USA with the camping trailer. I did take trip on my Suzuki V Strom 650 out to Utah. 6500 miles round trip. That was fun.

[@brycehermon5939]

An excellent video Charlie. It was nice to see Georgie spending time with you. I guess there are not too many young adults prepared to go camping with a parent, especially in the middle of winter. Thanks for taking us along and for sharing the experience. Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@georginarixon6882]

I’m always prepared for camping 😌

[@MatOutdoors]

You are doing a great job, your videos are very interesting. Thanks ❤️‍🔥😎👌

[@restdayrider]

Glad you like them! 😊

[@geoffballe8766]

Thanks girls 🇦🇺😇

[@packrat61]

Isn't it great when your kids join you camping and riding on the bike ...my son has been to 4 rallies with me k ow and we have don't a trip around-the south island of New Zealand keep up thevgreat vids you my favorite out of all the motorcycle vloggers 😊😊

[@restdayrider]

That is awesome! Thank you 😊

[@Honda-world]

How crazy are you love it 😂 you need to get pinlock for that helmet that keeps fogging up. Really well done camping in February. 👍

[@restdayrider]

I do have a pin lock on it, but it failed in the freezing temps!

[@Grumpysprout]

Rides through deep water, laughs her head .....camping in January! absolutely brilliant 👍👍👍

[@restdayrider]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@franklowry4852]

Another good video! Another good adventure! If the water over the road gets any deeper, you'll have to attach an outboard motor to Roger. LOL.

[@restdayrider]

Good call! 😂

[@keitht3055]

Excellent Charlie 👍. A proper mum and daughter bonding camp. Here's a tip for you, when I used to camp years ago up in the Yorkshire dales, with mates, I found that if you stick a your pullover in the bottom of your sleeping bag, it keeps your feet toasty warm 😉 try it, it really works.

[@restdayrider]

I shoved a hot water bottle down there instead. 😂

[@Konnorvas]

Great video, lots of fun! Quick tip to stay warm tho, invest in a decent camping inflatable mat with a good R value, blow up mattresses are very cold to sleep on due to there being so much air inside them and little insulation, so comfy in the summer but won’t keep you warm

[@Dwaindibbley1]

Hi Charlie. Yet again, you are an inspiration and huge respect to Georgie for joining in. It just goes to show you, yoh don't need to have a too of the range motorbike and plan huge world tours in order to make memories and have some fun. I've ridden my Himi - Jimmy, all winter and it's one of the best bikes for it that I've ever ridden. Also just to say how appreciated you are in the job you do. See you on the next vid and stay safe

[@restdayrider]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. 😊
