Well, this is the 1st video, of quite a few, of my hometown, that has actually made me feel homesick, currently live in Shropshire, but Hereford born and bred. Think I may well have to make my way back home at some point, great video Mark, will have to jump on my S1000RR and make my way to the next meet I think. Was also nice to see a couple of friends in the video. Many thanks for making this video.

Hi Mark this was fabulous, very interesting to hear about HR4K and who set it up and why and it sounds great for a meet up place. So many bikers and fun to see the ladies on them and hearing from them, Laura was friendly and helpful talking to you 😃🏍 It was fascinating to hear about the 4K name / selection. Trevor sounds a great guy from up this area. That bar area looked really good and those bikes looked fabulous. Jeanette was so nice and rode for a long time, good that she is involved with the veterans now, the coffee sounds great at the place she volunteers at, you'll enjoy visiting there :) That bike you showed that was decked out for military work in the desert was amazing to see, I had never thought that bikers would be used by special forces but then I can see how fast they are and would be great. Loved seeing the footage of them in action in that war zone. The biker community are seen often in North Wales especially in Betws Y Coed, they're so friendly. That was really good and so informative 🏍👍~ Anna

Hi there Anna, yeah a fantastic place and with Laura and the likes friendly. I'm glad you liked the HR and selection history - that's what's at the core there. As for Trev - so hood to meet finally. He's a wonderful chap. Ha, the decor is unique. Besides the military bike (useful for sure), it has bullets inset actually in the bar. The North Wales bikers would like it. Many thanks Anna. Take care. Mark

Morning Mark! That was great to learn about the HR4K, very interesting and informative... as always, I love listening to you sharing your knowledge. Looks like a great bike meet place... both Robert & I would love that. A biking meet is always a friendly place to be. Robert has grown up with bikes, and I absolutely love riding pillion. That and walking is my therapy... it's a special kind of mindfulness being on the back of a bike! Anyway, enjoyed that... thanks for sharing. Have a good day, take care, Jenny 😊

I'm not sure if some of them, drove and stopped by our shop in town yesterday (widemarsh street) we spoke to a couple of them, as part of a gathering/meet up for their friend with terminal cancer :-( (prayer for her). Oh and I noticed Pen Y Fan here, :-), we climb it last Sunday, we chose a wrong day (rain and wind up there), but we still continued to go until the top, hahaha, it was scary with that very strong winds up there and covered in clouds, we just took photos and started going down, my left knee didn't like going down, but it is okay now, put some deep heat on it hahaha. Lovely video Mark. :-)

Hey Mark. That was brilliant, nice to hear of places like that, especially with it's connection to The Regiment. The Military have been using Motorbikes, going back to WW2. The Para bikes that the Parachute regiment guys used are worth a small fortune now. They used to fold up into almost nothing. I will have a look at HR4s website and see what's going on. You certainly had a nice day for it mate, weather was perfect. Cheers Mark.
