    A nice relaxing ride through the country and If you look to the right at about 11:00 you will see in amongst the lots of trees a rare German Village! in the UK, sort of called Fibua? its a purpose built foreign town only for the Army's use,

    The Meteor has NO Power! load of reviewers have said on KZread, but you have just come up Maerdy Mountain from Aberdare, with its multiple switchbacks with not a problem? at a fairly nice speed, seemed like loads of power in the bag for a bit more grunt? Sorry, thought you were from the Rhondda, nah, from the Cynon Valley, near a golf Club, very nice, in terms of MPG do you get 100 out of yours? last Q, is it ok to ride with out a screen?

    STRATEGY: Filming, have a stop sometimes, and film both of you having a natter over a cuppa or something, maybe sometimes show and give some info about points of interest, I know there are an enormous amount there in S. Wales, all this to make the ride more interesting and more human, rather than just the road and good scenery and your 2 bikes.

    Love your rides with Mr Hi Vis in front, your bike looks good, how are you getting on with the heel & toe shifter? lots of people on KZread say they love the bike but want to cut off the heel part of the shifter? anyway just had to subscribe, as most of your vids are about riding in S. Wales which is FAB, more comment please, love the accent, (say anything, don't sing maybe,and hope you are not with that Treorchy Male voice Choir?, are you from the Rhondda? I would say the Fach not Fawr?.

    Your mate really got an Hi Vis jacket! love it, but he hogs the white line a lot, while you seem to be "always" in a very good position, all the time (just right of centre) he does not do this all the time but enough to notice, oh bye the way, the mountain road is known with affection as the Top Gear road, Clarkson used to zoom over it on tv, but now its at 40, shame, I don't go over that it's too narrow for my liking, but I have got a SUV,

    what a lovely tour, over them hills was very very cool, by the way, what are those pots on your handlebars? on the left is black and on stilts, other one is flat on the bar? what do they do, extra's or part of the bike?

    With regards to your question about the pots, on the right hand side the oval one is the front brake master cylinder. I don't know what the round one on the left is, i can only presume that it might be something for filming.
