Fitting the Shad 58 Top Box to the Gold Wing

Goldwing Helmet Lock

Your top box is full, the sun is blazing, you want to stop and walk around that lovely lake you are passing...but you cannot think about carrying your helmets yet again, let alone your jackets. Honda's Goldwing has an amazing 'hidden' locking system but it can be made even better and even secure your jackets as well. Enjoy that stroll in the sun!

GoPro Remote Holder

Просмотров 1,2 тыс.11 месяцев назад

I designed a holder for my GoPro Smart Remote and have used it everywhere to switch on and off the HERO 7 for a number of years. Last year I upgraded to the HERO 10 and then discovered that there was a new, different, remote that I had to buy! So came up with a different design which worked on my GS. I have taken that design to the next stage and so that it will fit the GoldWing and also suppor...

Overheating iPhone on my Goldwing

Просмотров 1,2 тыс.11 месяцев назад

I am beginning to really love my Goldwing...yes fully appreciate it is not for everyone, but hey that applies to most bikes!. When I collected it from the Goldwing dealer in Stratford upon Avon I plugged my iPhone into the usb connector that is in the little front cubby hole and away I went. iPhone tucked neatly away in the warm Honda insulating pouch like a baby kangaroo. Two hours later when ...

Fitting the Shad 58 Top Box to the Gold Wing

Просмотров 5 тыс.Год назад

The panniers on a Goldwing look enormous, but they are a fraction of the size on a GS or RT. A top-box is essential for any touring. You can of course buy the Goldwing TOUR model with the 'armchair' pillion for ulitimate comfort (often embarrassment for the pillion I discover). The 58tr expandable SHAD topbox and fitting kit is a far cheaper solution. Big enough for two full face helmets and so...

A NEW BIKE

Просмотров 1,9 тыс.Год назад

This is a definitive moment in all my biking life. When you have changed your bike and then realise that your wife cannot stand riding pillion anymore, what do you do? Buy another one and have two?. The GS is my dream bike and I have had 4 of them over the years, also 2 RT's. The number of friends who are also finding that their partners do not enjoy riding GS pillion anymore is quite frighteni...

Snake Pass

This time we travel down the side of the amazing Derwent Dams made famous when the Dambusters trained at night flying in 1943. 232mph at 60' over the water. Imagine being a local resident and trying to work out what was happening!. Then onto the wonderful, if not slightly intimidating, Snake Pass to Glossop. Up over Holme Moss where the Tour de France went a number of years ago to bustling Holm...

The Isle of Arran

Просмотров 2,3 тыс.Год назад

We are really enjoying these wonderful Inner Hebridean islands. This time it is Arran, a much shorter crossing that you can make from Ardrossan, south of Glasgow, or as we have from Claonaig near Tarbert where we are staying for a week. The surprise of Arran was immediately realised as we rode off the ferry. Very different from Islay, much more the Scottish Highlands in miniature, mountains, Gl...

The Isle of Islay

Просмотров 2,6 тыс.Год назад

The islands of the Inner Hebrides are stunning in many ways. Some have Caribbean white beaches and others like Islay are studded with distilleries. Islay is over two hours sailing so feels like a mini adventure when you catch the 7am ferry and the sea is like glass! What an amazing day, choose to visit any of the nine distilleries and you will love it. The combination of a gentle ferry crossing...

Rannoch Station

Просмотров 429Год назад

Rannoch Station is one of the most isolated stations you can imagine. Trains stop from Glasgow on their way to Fort William and Mallaig. Time it right and you can have a rail day trip to Mallaig and back, what a adventure. The road to the station is very demanding for bikers, around 40 miles each way on single track roads that do have mighty logging lorries thundering along. But the ride is wor...

Shoei Helmet Audio Install

Просмотров 506Год назад

So many viewers ask about connecting Audio for GoPro into helmets. Either for commentary while riding or often how to record comments from pillion riders or fellow bikers who have communication with you. I have a Shoei Neotec 2 purchased two years ago. At the same time I added the Sena built in communications package, simply because it is so much easier than the Sena I had externally on previou...

The Cat & Fiddle

This time we start in Edensor, a small village next to Chatsworth House, and ride around 60 Miles via the infamous Cat & Fiddle road into Cheshire, Staffordshire and back into Derbyshire ending the loop in Edensor. This route is just amazing, but be careful on the UK's most dangerous biking road, the actual Cat & Fiddle section itself. It has 50mph average speed camera's all the way through thi...

THE PEAK Route TWO - Bakewell Loop

Просмотров 538Год назад

This is Route Two which I have named the Bakewell Loop because it is! 50 miles that should take you a couple of hours but try and allow a day and really enjoy the places to visit, or better still stay in a B&B and take two days. Go down every mine, buy a Bakewell pudding which is the best thing you will ever eat (or not according to my wife), look for the violin painted on the music room door a...

Peak District Route One

After years of biking around Europe Covid stopped that playground and started to enjoy this country. Living on the edge of the Peak District in Derbyshire I began to appreciate what was on the doorstep, so here is the start of a series of day ride outs to discover what we have. This is a 70 mile figure of eight loop that is a great taster of the historic sites, villages, rivers and just great r...

Phoenix Motorcycle Trailer with a 12volt winch to help

Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Год назад

Why on earth would I want to buy a bike trailer after 30 years of biking everywhere. The simple answer is that we want to stay in self catering in isolated places in the Highlands and have the car for torrential rain days and evenings out. Hotels are costing more and more since covid and the trailer will pay for itself in two holidays compared to moving to a different hotel each night. However ...
