Thanks. I was one of the Marshalls on tbe main entrance. I know why I support RTTW and why I Marshall. It's always been a very emotional day for me and I have to fight to stop the dust from getting to me hut watching your video of this year's event in the privacy of home has set the tears rolling. RTTW daybis always emotional for the reasons we all hold close to our hearts. Add in the events that happen on the day and the emotions are heightened even more. Seeing your footage had been so moving I just want to say Thank You. We Marshalls only see you all coming in and going out. Your video has given another perspective. Ride safe - see you next year. 🏍🏍🏍
Blown away. 🥺 Firstly THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing what you do. I am under no illusion that without people like you this whole day would not even be possible never mind running seamlessly. Every person who attends owes you guys and girls a massive massive thank you for giving up your time. Total respect ! It means a hell of a lot to me when anything that I create and put out there has an effect on anybody, I'm so happy that this has given you perhaps that riders perspective on things. As I said, I was nervous about even making this video because of the importance of this day and all I wanted to do is make sure that the right message did come across. I think so many people don't even see you guys doing what you do and just focus on everything that's going on, it's easy to forget people like you MAKE this happen ! Thank you and all of the RTTW family, I wish I could tell every single one of you how grateful we all are.
There always been a strong link between the forces and the motorcycle community for years in many countries. It's amazing to see that many ex forces riders there with their patches on. An incredible day. Thanks for watching.
Absolutely fantastic video thank you so much for sharing, this year was my first ride instead of being wallside, and omg..I didn't know what to expect...no..I didn't know how emotional it would be! Wow..roll on next year..I'll never miss another.
That's how I felt when I went last year and it was my first year. Expecting a jolly on the bike and got a whole lot more. Such an amazing day and thanks for watching and the comment 👍See you next year !
We rode a bike way back int he sixties and I still feel a real affinity with the scene and anything to do with honouring fallen heroes moves me to tears so thank you for this wonderful respectful and heartwarming video. That was a lovely black bike!! dd
Thank you very very much. It was hugely important to me for the video to be respectful. The link between the bike community and the forces is massive and it makes me proud to be a part of that community. Yes, I love the Triumph, she's a beasty.
Thanks very much. Can I assume that's your patch ? I saw them when I was there, It may have even been you ! My pleasure, I don't start editing videos normally as soon as I come back but I did want to get this one out there. As I said on the video, I was nervous about this one as it is such an important day.
So glad the weather was good for the event & everyone, Stella Job on the vid Scott. It came across as very respectful, & glad you got some drone footage bud, all the patience & waiting deserves a pie on the way home ✌️
Yeh, I wish 🤣. Was really nervous about this as it's not just me cocking around as normal. Great weather, great people, great day. Next year pal get over.
@1guyaharleyandadrone657 I knew this vid was weighing on ya buddy, that's why I let you know it came over well, I'm looking at next year for the same tour idea I cancelled this year , but will shift my holiday to August/Sep for a greater chance at better weather , So who knows mate haha , would be a blast to ride there with you & the crowd , cheers
Glad you made it, you said you were going. It's is incredible. You have to except that it's going to take a while to get in and out but as you say worth it. Thanks
Amazing and shows respect that like minded folk have. Credit to you Scott, it hard to imagine the scale of support form the motorbike community until you see the drone footage and that shocks you more! Your video did the event credit. I will definitely have to go. Tide safe and thank you for sharing 🫡
Thanks very much pal, very much appreciated. I'm very proud to be a part of that community when you see something like that. It's just amazing the support and respect that the motorbike community has for the armed forces and reiterates the long standing links between the two. Thanks for your comments and you had better go next year ! That's not a threat or anything 🤣Get yourself there and give me an elbow for a coffee.
Excellent video Scott, I was looking out for you but didn't see you. Its always worth a run down to the NMA on a day without RTTW on, So much to see. Massive site, So many memorials.
I said after last years trip I would go and didn't. I really must get down there and spend some time exploring. There are just so many people it's difficult to find anybody. Hope you had a great day there. Thanks very much for watching.
Well done Scott. You certainly did the event some justice. My big brother rode down with the Clyde Valley mob to take part this year. He described it as “humbling”.
Another great day at the RTTW yesterday, weather was just ticitiboo !! Spotted you on top of the steps filming back down the steps, wanted to say hello, but by the time we got there, there was hundreds already in the "Wall" !! - I have sent your link of the RRTW 2023 to my mates who have never been, and watched it again with my wife on Friday night (to show her what to expect) as i think your reflection was exactly the same as mine the 1st time i went, as an ex serviceman, it is great to see non servicemen & women attend, and show their appreciation to those who have fallen since World War 2. It was a shame we all seemed to get split up on the M6, as the convoy seemed a little thinner on the day, but having seen your video, i now know why, we must have just been a head of you, coming down from Knutsford. Thanks for taking the time to edit the video in quick time! PS - i just turn my Rocket off when in traffic like that, saving fuel & my legs
Hi, I was turning mine off whenever possible as well, got a bit uncomfortable at times 🤣. Sorry I missed you, it would have been great to chat, bugger !!!!. The M6 was a bit of a shame, we tried to catch up but the main group was long gone. Still had a good chat in the middle of the motorway 😂😂😂 From a non armed forces background I cannot pretend to fully understand an ex forces perspective on things but what I do know is that every single person owes more than they can ever repay to those who have given their lives defending this country. To me it shows more bravery and courage than I even know. Total respect. Next time just throw something at me 😂. Thanks.
An incredible day and event. Can't believe I didn't see you as you parked a few feet from me, even getting my bike in shot. Then you watched the service a few feet to the right of me. How strange is that? It was my first time and won't be my last I even plan on visiting again during a 'normal' time and perhaps avoiding the queue in & out.
So close. Glad you made it and what a day !!!! I have said that I need to go on a 'normal' day as well. Thanks for watching and seeing your own bike on the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My wife and I were watching Moto GP Sunday morning and the main race had quite a lively start. My wife pipes up and says, ''and I thought getting out of the arboretum was nerve-racking''...(it was her first time and she's only been riding her 'big bike' 2 months :-). Great video, thanks for your effort. See you, all, again next years.
I can image for a relatively newish rider its bloody nerve racking. I was speaking to a guy in our group who only passed his test 6 months ago and I asked him if the group riding situation was scary for him but it was ok as we had decent gaps in-between riders. Bloody well done your wife. 👍👍👍👍
I was one of those 1%ers there. As far as a public event goes you film as you wish. I mean it’s not like anyone in the UK has the right to privacy when out in public, (CCTV etc….😂). Awesome vid, mate. I love your channel. 😎
Hi, Thanks very much. I have only just responded to another comment about this and it was along the lines of - I know some 1% can be a little sensitive about filming so I just be mindful. That side of the culture is not my cup of tea but each to their own and I make it my business to know just enough about that side to stay respectful. Probably me being a bit over sensitive then but I don't want to upset or disrespect anybody in the community. You might be a good person to ask, I was a bit surprised this year and last that there wasn't more of a representation from the so called 1% clubs there. Given the size of the event now I maybe would have expected more or a greater diversity of this side of the culture. Is that fair ?
@@1guyaharleyandadrone657 It’s a strange one really…. There are numerous LE, (law enforcement) back patch clubs that attend every year as well as local back patch clubs and various mcc’s and riding clubs from all over the UK. However I have only ever seen one other 1% club, (an original 1% club not these recent support clubs that just stick on a 1% patch…lol), there at RTTW in all the time I have attended. Personally I live 5 minutes away from the NMA and have seen many different MC’s there at different times of the year and individual 1%ers from different clubs too. Unfortunately politics and rules stop me from going into details but basically it’s to do with areas.
@@stigga1667 Of course, I understand your position. Would you feel comfortable with having a chat at some point ? Totally understand if you don't. If that's ok is there a way of making contact with you outside the channel. Cheers
Thanks. I just want to be mindful of everyone really. I can see your point of view. It's an area of the community that I'm mindful of and that's not out of anything but respect. Thanks again. Go safe sir.
looked to be a fantastic day for it, and what a turnout, i was really hoping to go on my first one but dropped my bike last week in Leek , gutted i could not go , next year i hope
You didn't cock it up mate, you have made a good video with dignity and respect. It was my first visit this year but it won't be my last. I found the ceremony to the fallen quite moving and I think you are right not to have included that bit. Well done and thanks for sharing this video
😂Image that. I just try and show respect whenever and wherever I can. I know some 1% can be a little sensitive about filming so I just be mindful. That side of the culture is not my cup of tea but each to their own and I make it my business to know just enough about that side to stay respectful. Thanks for watching.
I nice respectful video for such an event. We don't need to see it all. I'm wondering if the drone interference was intentional for the same reason. Maybe even a security concern.
It's possible I suppose. It was very odd. Normally if there's a security risk they have a way of making the area a no fly zone. Most big stadiums have this. I got permission to cover the local charity bike run here with the drone and because it started at the local football stadium I couldn't get any footage for them. I could have go much better drone footage but there was no way that I was having the drone low enough to see or hear it in that kind of setting. Thanks pal.
Yes film where and who you like apprently they caused hassle yesterday anyways With your drone I had same problem I was up road with mine filming you all come in I think maybe connection problem may been all mobile signals around interfering or the temp no fly zone that was put into place
I didn't see any issues at all. What a shame on a day like that and what it means. I can't explain what was going on with the signal. Normally when there is a potential security risk and a no fly zone is put in place I will get a warning but this was interference of some kind. Strange. The signal dropped a few times which was a bit of a worry but got it back in one piece and I made sure I was high enough so I don't think anybody could either hear or see it. Thanks for watching.
A MASSIVE thanks to all of the RTTW family and everybody involved for creating and organising a very special day.
Thank you for sharing this. A great day which I missed for the time in a very long time due to having a cardiac arrest 7 weeks ago. Thank you!
Crap, hope you are getting on ok. Heart issues are not the most fun are they ! Next year matey. All the best.
Awesome, sorry I couldn't make it this year, wishing you all well - hope everyone got home safely.
It was amazing, there's always next year. See you then 👍
