I love your video`s so much Charlie, so positive and much love, fun and laughter. Thank you for doing this and giving us your channel and all the work you do. Keep up the great work! 😊😊

[@restdayrider]

Thank you so much, that's really fantastic to hear. 😊

[@ColSnders]

Your Cirencester DGR was truly an impressive gathering of distinguished gentlefolk. Loved the stopover at that posh school! It boggles the mind that thousands are taking part in similar rides all over the world on the same Sunday every May. Cheers from Alabama.

[@restdayrider]

We were very lucky with the weather, and the school was an added bonus!

[@rabh6746]

Great video Charlie and for such a great cause, glad the weather was kind to you all😊

It was perfect. 😊

Thank you for doing this and sharing. Has made me quite emotional. This was Andy’s goal to get out of hospital last year. Unfortunately he didn’t make it. He’d grown a beard which he was going to have trimmed and chosen a lovely outfit. He was supposed to ride on 21st May. His beard was trimmed, his outfit was on and we had his service and celebration of life on Monday 22nd 🙏 I got so emotional yesterday as I rode over the boarder of Austria yesterday. Watching this on waking has really helped 🙏 Waterfall ride today and Grossglockner challenge in two days 💥💃🤞

[@restdayrider]

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, I'm glad youre keeping riding and getting through this. X

I did the Guildford Surrey Hills event, great day out riding for a good cause. Cold start though dressed in a shooting jacket and it did feel strange not riding in leathers. The range of bikes is amazing too. All helped by the glorious sun shine.

Hey Charlie, that was a great turnout for your gentleman’s ride out, and you all looked very distinguished, your video with the drone shots especially where really great, it was interesting to see Cirencester market place full of bikes from ahigh 😎

[@davericketts9101]

Brilliant Charlie. A real feel-good video. Thanks 🤗

[@martintraffordmoorlandbike7121]

Charlie that looked a marvellous event and a chat with Henry to boot! That old Lambretta took me back - the same Ld model as my first machine as a spotty 16 year old, and the subject of my first speeding fine - 52mph! When asked if I had anything to say, my reply was 'wow, I didn't know it'd go that fast!' 🤦 £6 fine+endorsement. (well it was 1968!) Great vid again Charlie. 😎

[@restdayrider]

There were so many fab bikes. 😊

[@bsabiker-d7z]

You were so lucky with the weather, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Loved the BSA Rocket Goldstar. At my 'local' (read an hour and a half away) in Lleida (Catalunya, Spain) the start was in sunshine but by the half way point the skies opened up and it was in biblical proportions, they call these storms Tormentas for obvious reasons. So most of us left and went home, my new (3 weeks old and not run in) R.E. Classic 350 had a true baptism 😔

[@restdayrider]

That's a shame! We were very lucky. 😊

I found that having the air bed ontop was really comfy, I need add a non slip mat, the sort you get for dash boards in cars type thing to stop the mattress slipping , but yes, it was a success.

[@paulyflyer8154]

@restdayrider Thank you. I'm camping for 9 days next month, by far the longest I've done on a bike, and so that bed may be worth it. Not sure I'll have room on the bike though as like you I also have the lone rider tent.
