Great video and appreciate you being so disciplined in sharing this great event with all of us. The English countryside always looks so beautiful and pleased to see the weather cooperated. That’s a cute caravan you brought to the party and certainly a lot more comfortable than a tent. Thanks again from NC/USA.

Great insight in what seems a great weekend. Far bigger than what we would get in New Zealand. It may be worth coming over for 2025. I am very please for you and your wife, Carol, in how popular you have become. Your hard work ethics and professionalism has paid off. Life should always be an adventure. Enjoy your summer and keep up the great work. I hope to have a good day to get the Diavel V4 out for a ride. Regards from the deep south.

My first ABR. I had stopped going to festivals in the 1980s due to the general squalor and filth of it all. ABR was fabulous, clean tidy and friendly. I’m already looking forward to next year. Talk bikes , rides bikes all day great live music in the evening. I arrived on the Thursday and still in recovery mode on the Tuesday after as I didn’t want to miss anything.

Hi Andy, Hi Carol. I expect you are inundated with messages and so many requests. You may or may not recall speaking with me. I was the Police officer that spoke to you on the Thursday of the ABR. I Just wanted to say it was an absolute pleasure to meet you and Carol, thank you for taking the time to speak with us. I also wanted to find out how Carol was doing with her mod 2 ? Jess ( beginner2baddassbiker) passed her test and it got me thinking about Carol taking her test. If she hasn't yet taken it then we wish her the very best of luck. Thanks again for taking the time to speak with us. Safe riding both.

He’s a wheelchair user and was just to the left of the bar tent.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs Flyer for giving us an in depth look arounf the ABR festival. After watching this video, I am determined to try and get to at least one in the future.
