Thank you, very different from what I usually do but these type of videos seem quite popular so I thought I’d give it a go. 👍

Liking the new format. It’s different and would be interested in your viewing figures for this as opposed to your normal format. From what I read, this format appears to be a growing genre. I for one am liking the new van. I am trying to convince my other half that she needs to change her little car for a van 😁. My efforts up to press are not working……… so far.

Keep trying for a van, I bought the van because I sold the trailer and the van offers more security for the bike. I’m going to do a few videos of this style with a bit of camping thrown in for good measure and see how they perform. 👍

Is that the camp site in D&G you stopped at last year? Near the raiders road i think. Keep em coming Steve 👍👍

Yes it is, well spotted. Last year I stayed in one of their glamping pods but I thought I’d have a practice overnight camp in preparation for this weeks ABR Festival. Plus the area is stunning 👍

That's different Steve....you didn't seem too enamoured with the quality of your evening meal...maybe a Pot Noodle next time ......lol

It’s food, but it’s nothing too special, just quick and easy for this type of outing. 👍

Hi Steve, I did miss your commentary, did you have any issues with midges?

I got attacked by midges especially about 9pm on the Wednesday night, there were hundreds of the little buggers. Yes it was weird making a video without talking but I thought I’d give it a go as this style of video seems quite popular. They are however far more time consuming to make, setting up different camera angles etc. I will have another go soon but it’s not going to replace my normal style of video. 👍

You got there in a van! buy your own feckin coffee!

Yes I got there in a van, did you not realise that when I turned up in the van with the bike and all my camping and filming gear in the back. I apologise for working hard, saving some money and treating myself to a form of transport to get about in. 😂

Sleep in the van ??
