Wales two up by Honda Goldwing - Episode 2 | Builth to Porthmadog

Loved it again! I don’t want this series to end. I think bikers in general have a huge appreciation for the countryside and the views (and smells) it offers. Well done, another great watch. 👍🏍🎥

Why you blowing this guy, mate?

[@drewiediggler1]

Amazing to think that Honda designed their Evo 6 concept bike almost 13 years ago, and it still looks sexier than today's Triumph Rocket in my opinion. I'm hoping they'll resurrect it because the goldwing engine is awesome. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

[@Porsche996driver]

Great bike, that straight 6 sounds like an old 5 series, lovely ha. Thanks for the virtual tour and greetings from Southern California. 👌🏼

You are now riding in my back garden. Fantastic roads, shame you didn't visit Portmeirion, I'm there in the morning for an hour (work unfortunately). Looking forward to episode 3. Hope you did the A4212 Trawsfynedd to Bala. A perfect road to ride a bike on, past Treweryn and down into Bala, biking heaven 🙌

[@rumblin_cynth_rampo374]

Thanks Mr and Mrs Flyer for the vicarious trip in my back yard. Currently locked down in the Vale of Glamorgan with a shiny new bike and limited places to go. So your vlog is a joy to watch. Ref the Portmeirion and GPS thing. Portmeirion isnt really a proper village as such its classed as a hotel. So most GPSs (and software such as Basecamp) dont find it with out its proper address. Weird I know.

Isn't that something - explains the anomaly - cheers!

The scenery reminds me so much of where I grew up in western Pennsylvania, absolutely beautiful there in Wales.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

It sure is - Ive never been to Pennsylvania - should I add it to my list?

[@Boelick]

So much of it has changed in 50 years but if you get the chance, in SW Pennsylvania, visit the Frank Loyd Wright house Falling Waters and then in the same trip visit Ohio Pyle and Cucumber Falls a set of white water rapids and a waterfall you can walk behind. The ride in the Appalachian Mountains is gorgeous as are so many others across the states.

[@ssmith954]

Really enjoying this series! To be honest, I'd never have even taken a second look at the Goldwing before watching your vids.. it's always seemed so daunting, so big... but now would love to have a go on one and check it out. Looks like the ultimate, stress-free European tourer, and certainly the best option for 2-up. Also seems very well-mannered and still an lot of fun. Funnily enough, it's the only bike my wife looks at and says 'ooh... that looks comfortable!'.

Yes funny how they have that effect on women - and they're right, one of the comfiest (lets face it THE comfiest) bike I've ever ridden for sure....

[@Pisceanboi]

Another fantastic video to watch with stunning scenery and commentary. Thank you so much! I can see the attraction with the Goldwing - difficult to imagine a more relaxed or luxurious way to tour, with that flat 6 purring away whilst the DCT effortlessly swaps cogs as needed. I was thinking of you the other day when I read up on the just released 2021 BMW RT - I think they must have been stalking your channel, as they appear to have pretty much fixed a number of issues you highlighted in your excellent review of it. Looking forwards to the next instalment on this fantastic trip.. :-)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I don't think BMW listen to me!! But great news if the RT is now improved, looking forward to having a go on the new model, it is a great bike (just not as good as the GW!)....mind you it's a lot cheaper too....

i live and work around those areas. When you're going up the 20% hill near Dinas Mawddwy, over to Cross Foxes and Dolgellau, that's on the route of the Mach Loop. The other day I was there and thought my van had something wrong with it as there was this awful clattering sound. I turned the radio off quickly to try to figure out where it was coming from, and in the corner of my eye I saw a whopping great chinook fly past! Wonderful things. Should have known, very regularly jets and all sorts flying around there. Looks like a good ride, croeso i Gogledd Cymru.

Great ride, especially as you caught some good weather. The riders eye view of the instruments and controls on the Goldwing is so classy and uncluttered unlike the BMW GS’s! And the sound of the 6 cylinder motor is beautifully smooth and again classy. Also the overall design is great as everything seems to be ‘designed in’…..unlike the BM’s boxy ‘add ons’! Sorry all you BMW owners but in my view the Goldwing is simply beautiful in every respect and from what I hear is far more reliable……

[@susanmaggiora4800]

Yeah, even just looking at google maps to mark his journey I saw what looked like many roads I would’ve loved to take a ride down. Unfortunately, Satnavs (to the best of my knowledge) find the most direct routes, not the most fun, or interesting.

[@yellownev]

I revisited this mini series since your big reveal. I think now you have such a great touring bike ( and you have the GS as well) you need to be looking at doing a series on route planning on Basecamp ? I have just paused at the point where you are stopping at each place then putting in the next destination - to get the best route. of course basecamp or others can do this pre planning. It would be interesting to see how the GW imports such routes - the same maybe of the new TFT on the RT and GS. Enjoy the bike !

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Nev - you import .gpx routes via a USB socket in the "boot" - personally I don't as I seldom plan routes in advance to that level of detail as you saw...I like to keep flexible...

Excellent trip Andy and Mrs Flyer. The A470 (transWales Highway) must be one of the best biking roads in Europe. Next time you're looking for a coffee stop heading to Llandovery, the West End cafe is the famous biker place right in town. Also, to become a legend among Englishmen, it's easy to pronounce ll as in Dolgellau - just make a th sound, which has the tongue on the tip of the upper incisors, then move it back just onto the gum instead. Please also make a clip of you mastering that 😉😆👍🏻

Really enjoying this tour series. I was in Wales last month and rode some of the same roads as you. My first tour and I can’t wait to go back. I thought the bike looked a bit of a handful in Episode 1 (I think there were 2 corners where you really had to haul it back into line) but you seemed to be taming it better in Episode 2. I have to admit it looks too big for my liking, I prefer a more nimble bike, but that engine sounds lovely 👍
