awesome series fellas! I think i'm hooked. Great set of vids, great editing and great music. Can't wait for USA series and can't wait for the summer to get out.
you should come and see Romania. There is some Trans mountains roads, as transfagarasan road, transalpina road..and so on. Romania is a beautiful country.By the way, I love your videos. Good luck and dry asphalt.
Can’t understand why you stayed where you did on the last night as you could have found somewhere in Caen for one night like ibis Novotel something in town
What was wrong with where we stayed on the last night? Lovely hotel, superb location, ferry port on doorstep and bar downstairs? I can’t understand how you can’t understand why we stayed there?! Haha
Egone should have taken that fuel spill as a sign by the motorcycle gods that one should not put E10 in his tank. :( BTW did you ever encounter any real language problems when going through France? This is one of the things that keep me away from that country. Had my shortest phone call ever with a French police station after one of the trucks of the company I worked for at the time got pulled over in France. It went like: Hello, do you speak English? No! Sprechen Sie deutsch (do you speak German)? No! Au Revoir. *click*
haha. I know what you mean. Sometimes you do feel like the French don't want you (being English) there, but I think it's down to the area. We once went to St. Tropez for the night on the way through to Spain. Gladly spending our money (not THAT kind though) and they were so rude. It really left a sour taste in my mouth. But then the last few years of touring, the French have been nothing but lovely. I always try my best to speak in the language of the country I'm in - albeit very broken, and mediocre at best - and I feel this really helps break down any barriers. Even just the very basics show that you're not just another ignorant Englishman, as so many are. I always make an effort, and that's what counts.

Hey I would love to come over and ride the transfagarasan!
dont you mean sailing from oostreiahem north of caen 3 sailings from there morn/aft/night lol plus nice restaurant near ferry american
Note on refuelling. Never fill your bike sitting on it!! If it catches fire, you're in the middle of it!
VTEC kick in at 4:04
all part of the adventure dear boy,all part of the adventure, at least you can have a laugh about it fellas.
Hey Rich, what's the secret for using pay at pump in France? I can never get my debit card to work. Cheers.

Meant the night before last when you stayed in the pikey caravan 😂Caen itself is a lovely place to stay
Oh right! Hey it’s all about the adventure. Be boring if we stayed in nice hotels every night. What’s interesting about that?!
I don't understand why you stay on your bike when you put petrol in, surely it must be easier to do it when you are off the bike?
Not at all. On the bike is loads easier, plus with it being upright, you squeeze more in. Have never filled it off the bike!
Funniest hissy fit ever . Lol .
had some melt downs with those French pumps myself, so I know how you feel egos normally eat my cash for no fuel
even worse in the USA. Each State had different rules and regs. Never knew what the craic was!
Why is Egone putting E10 shi*e in his tank ?
I did the very same here too! You'll see on tomo's vid.. I 'apologise' to my bike haha
