Weather is all part of the package, You get good days and bad but we enjoy them all when were on our motorbikes. Cheers
Happy found you guys, in my late 50's and you are an inspiration for me to take longer trips on my bike as well. Ride Safe and keep laughing
We know how you feel Dave! Sometimes on a tour everything seems to go wrong - had one very recently (including dropping my bike) - still loving the vids and looking forward to seeing what happens! 😀👍

Thanks folks. Hope you’re both well!
As I live just north of the ‘Empire’ I know those roads so well, enjoyed the ‘craic’. PS. I’ve forgotten my shoes!🤣🤣
Nice tour,the roads look grand ,nice little towns,would like to explore more of uk.most of my experience in uk was on major routes.
Just road the 1250gs and the 1300gs at my dealer- Demo truck with all different types of BMW's to enjoy. I can understand why the popularity of the GS. Was enjoying your video- until the end. OH NO..😱😱😱 Will be a cliff hanger.!! Hope everything worked out ok. 👍👍5🏍🙋♂️
Hoping for a happy ending and not expensive! Still a great video given the weather and the circumstances. I remember when we were allowed to nurse an engine without electronics.🤔🏍️

Thanks 🙏. I also wish we could soldier on rather than all these safety cut offs. 🤯
Dodged a bullet here....... ;0)
Sorry you got stranded, what a nightmare for you. I await the outcome and hope it isnt too expensive.
Dave, Beautiful section of road. Looking forward to part iii…. Some amount of water there too.. Cavan not too bad in Winter so. 🤣
I did warn you Trev always forgets something. Nothing like an inconspicuous pair of socks to disguise lack of shoes. Thanks for showing beautiful Northumberland.
I feel yor pain Dave. Sometimes it just goes wrong. I hope it works out. It would be my type of day out... scenery, roads and history. Lovely place .
Great trip. I hope it has a happy ending!
Wow Dave, yours and Nicks run of bad luck seems to be going on and on ! Looking forward to part three Pal 😃 ps don`t you wish you had used your Mic 2 and connected wirelessly !!

Yes the mic 2 would have been ideal if I was solo but I couldn’t have fed the intercom from Trev into it.
Ohh no, I wish they would just rid of limp mode and just let the bikes power on through

Oh no! A wet weather gremlin? Or maybe a battery issue ...

Don’t BMW ‘adventure bikes’ work in the rain then?🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️
Can you not reboot the system by switching off the bike removing the key and waiting for a minute. You could ring bmw and ask but im sure you have done that. Good luck Dave.
Aloha, Dave! Feel for you guys having to ride in the rain!-lol...Just was wondering if you/subscribers have any experience w/Insta360 family of cameras or SJCAM 360 cameras? Was looking at it, in lieu of rear-view cameras or side mirrors. Would appreciate any sort of input or experience....Stay Safe, Ride Safer, Dave...Aloha from Hawaii!

Hi Harry, yes I have used all the insta360 cams. If it’s the 360 effect you’re after then they are brilliant but don’t use it as a main vlogging cam. The quality isn’t as good as DJI and the file sizes are huge. They’re also pricey to get repaired and you WILL scratch a lens. Don’t even consider lens guards, they deteriorate the picture greatly. G’luck! 👌🎥
Ya may get rid of the GS and get yourself a V Strom lol 😂
