Motorcycling saved me. I make film, I play music. Do both for a living. What you do surpasses my attempts to touch people. You are blessed with the gift, in my humble opinion, of getting your point across in an honest way. This strikes a chord with people in these crazy times. Sincerity, soul, and meaning what you say. It’s worth more than a million attempts at being flash , brash, and seeking attention. I think your way wins through every time. I can not begin to put into words the pleasure you give me and I know others. I watch Freddie Dobbs’ videos too. His naivety is what I think attracts people to his channel. But yours has the edge for me, not that it is a competition. Keep it up please, it’s a fucking lifeline in a lot a shite. Thank you so much for what you do

My seriously senior neighbour popped over one day for a brew, now he ran his place (10,000 acres) with a quad bike 4 working dogs (Kelpie) he was running sheep as well as cattle & I asked him ....Ron how do you do it basically on your own, his reply was. Well the good wife runs the home and veggie gardens takes care of it all and i'm left to work the farm, I asked again how do you do that, he said well son i'm in my nineties now so when I do something I sit back and thing long and hard how to do it without hurting myself. He finished saying my good wife thinks i'm just standing around most of the time.... so he asked her to mow the house lawn, she almost cut her foot off and now never ask's why are you standing around. 😉🤠

You do have an interesting & unique way of thinking. As usual I loved this video as I do with all of yours. Such food for thought and quite humbling. Motorcycles were in my family history but as transport and a freedom machine after the war until a car was affordable, then nothing until me. I knew from age 14 I was going to get a motorbike and used to save up my paper round money to buy Street Chopper magazine every month. I was always getting told off at school for drawing choppers on my exercise books but I 0:02 couldn’t stop. Here I am 50 years later still riding and still thinking about bikes every hour of the day. It’s an obsession. You are right.. I feel lucky they have always been in my life. All the best, IanP

Out every weekend for years till I outgrew it, great times. I've always wanted to get one but never have because of the risk. I was just watching your series on the telly And my wife says should we do it? I said do what? Pass the test and get a motorbike each I've always wanted one, l've loved them since being a kid on the back of my brothers motor cross bike. WOW just WOW we're not a new couple lived together 30 years married 22 and now you say. I've talked about them watched videos took her to show rooms to see them, for decades, and 30 years later she say she likes them and wants one UNBELIEVABLE !!!.

Ha , few folks said , but if I did it would have to be an audiobook … I just rewatched the final edit I’d uploaded for this weeks vlog and realised I spelt ‘Shepherd’ wrong . I missed the H . I was kicked out of English at age 12… so I’m up against it haha . Thanks though dude . I appreciate that …
