    I have the same look on my face when I drive my 1953 fire truck. There's something about these old rides that just brings out the kid in us.

    Been watching you for ages but loving the fact that wildbeare gave you a shout out.
    Hope it brings some new viewers your way.
    Can’t wait to see you take this bike on an adventure, but I think you might need to look after her and take a little support van or something to carry your kit.
    Maybe do a ride from lymington, (or wherever you get a ferry to) round the south coast and end at wales or Bristol or something, staying on basic CL campsites with a bit of banter between you and your support van of an evening.
    Doesn’t have to be all about the actual ride, more the experience of you riding, overnighting, cooking, trying to blag free stop offs and donations of food etc along the way.
    Maybe even do the ride in fancy dress lol

    A great find I look forward to your next adventure.I agree with you on the fuel consumption figures I reckon you will be lucky to get more than 15 miles per pint. On the plus side at least it doesnt sound like a skeleton having a wank in a dustbin. Good luck anyway your videos are refreshingly different from the usual offerings.

    Oh! Clark Masts!! UK Radio Hams and Military personnel know them well. Didn’t know they’d ventured into motor-powered transport (of a sort..). I thought that ridiculous BSA thing would have cured you of 50cc mopeds. Oh well.. if you must, I guess we’ll have to follow you round the coastline/country/globe on this thing. At least it seems to be better than the Arial. That tank looks like it was borrowed or nicked from a Suffolk Punch lawnmower.. Expecting great things from this🤣 Les in Chester 🇬🇧

    I have the same sh!t eating smirk when I ride Phyllis, my 09 Suzuki FL125 underbone. The joy of desperately trying to maintain momentum, grinning like a loon at pig ignorant "bikers" who don't nod at you because you're not worthy is priceless. That Scamp is a beautiful beast! I'd be tempted to fit a pushbike mirror though so I could keep eyes forward. I've noticed Phyllis positively drinks E10 and does no where near her claimed 110mpg. She does significantly better on super.
    I can't wait to see what adventures you have.
