In today's video I have a big announcement to make!
We rode to a really nice country cafe called 'The Larder' on the Burrough Court Estate, outside a village named Burrough Court, in Leicestershire, on the Moto Guzzi V7 Special and the BMW R18. We think this would be a great meeting spot for bikers, because it is not near a residential area, and theres lots of parking! After a sandwich and a coffee, we rode on to an equestrian centre, a few miles away because The Ol' Man is thinking of riding a horse! Will he do it?

Mental health is exactly why I ride. My mental health practitioner is Dr Harley Davidson FLSB and does wonders every time I have an extended outdoor self-reflection and check up session. Seriously though, as a former service member (army/infantry) and then law enforcement officer ( now retired), mental health is a big problem for many in our community, both in and out of service and others throughout our community. Fortunately over the years , I’ve sorted my loose screws and bolts, but I have lost a few good buddies to the black dog. So, commiserations ol’ Man on the loss of your family member to the black dog. Anything that you promote to keep any organisation in the frame of public awareness is a very positive thing indeed. Respect and keep punching. 👍❤️💙💚
Thank you for sharing this! It means a lot. Mental Health is very important indeed and needs to be spoken about more openly 👌🏻
Well said.

I love the format of your videos. It’s great to experience an outing via motorcycle. Whatever that may include. It’s good seeing the interactions with you guys and those you come in contact with. And being in America, it’s wonderful getting to see the back roads, villages, and shops in Britain. Thank you for all your work!!
Awesome, thank you! More to come 😊
Agree 100%!
Great sponsor. So sad more people have issues and have no one to talk to so services like this are key to help them👍
Good on you gents. Nicely done. And definitely needed.
Liking the new more relaxed format. Happy Trails Darcy and good luck with that horse, should be a good one...
Mr Darcy & The Ol' Man, great video keep up the amazing content
It’s on the list. Thanks!
Important message, great vid, keep it going! Oh and good luck on your travels!
Thank you 😊
Have a great as well as safe trip, Darcy 👍
@@kwakithailand thanks 😊
I spent 6 weeks touring Japan by train. Loved it. An amazing place. You will have a great time!
Eight years ago we hired a BMW R1200 in Tokyo and had two weeks riding around Honshu. Absolutely amazing experience. We tried to avoid Western style hotels and mainly stayed in Ryokans and even a monastery one night. You will love it.
I like that you've become a channel showing real life, rather than the usual YT "here's another excitingly same as the last bike" vid. Carry on....
Great video guys
A good review on the larder definitely a location I will be adding to my places to go list
And as a male of a certain age who’s grown up to not talk or share there feelings I can see how mental health can affect everyone so it’s good to get the word out
And on a side note: was it my imagination or was there a jester on the bench behind you in the background 😊
Your pops is one of the coolest dudes and you're catching up. Good upload as always.Hi from Canada
I was mesmerised by the old guy wearing the long shorts and white socks in the background.
Couple of great bikes the R18 and V7 SPECIAL!
Your 2 bikes make a great pair, and are absolute beauties. They don’t need noisy pipes, because they have Class. You don’t hear Rolls/Bentley making noise… they just don’t need to.
Enjoy Japan Darcy… is your special Japanese test bike a Meguro? ❤️👍😎✅
Totally agree. The only thing that saves lives on a bike is defensive riding.
Thanks for another great video both. Just wanted to send my best wishes to Darcy for his up coming trip. Please keep the content coming from both of you. PS: Ol' Man good luck riding the horse!
Have a great time mate Japan looks amazing
I hope you have fun in Japan. I'm jealous since it's on my bucket list, but I need to get to Scotland 1st.
Love these two. Absolutely top blokes.
I aspire to have the father/son relationship you two share whenever my boy grows up!
Agreed, Steel bikes only. I'm guessing suzuki intruder or yamaha V-max? Have a great time in Tokyo, it's a really fun place to be. Visited Sapporo last year, my friend is pursuing a PhD there.
Great to hear you are heading to Japan it's an awesome country that I'm sure you will love , it has a fascinating biking culture which is completely different from what you have experiencesd in UK and Europe plus you will get to see bikes we just can't get in UK. As for the Larder, I've taken your recommendation and added it to my " must visit" list. Looking forward to seeing your vids from Japan.
I liked the speeded up shots in the cafe. Nice work!
@@trailrunnermike thanks 😊
Felt like I was right with you in that lovely pub! Nice video boys and look forward to the next ones!
@@ryanpatrickjamieson thanks 😊
What’s up guys, keep up the good work. Thanks for todays message!
Going to ride my 2015 Honda Shadow Aero today giving the 2023 HD Heritage a rest after a nice country ride yesterday. Enjoying retirement, take care guys!!
GO BILLS!!
At 36 I finally tried riding a horse (beginning of the year). I absolutely love riding a motorcycle to the point of obsession, but if I had the choice.. I'd go back in time to where riding with horses was the norm. Beautiful creatures, and even after a few hours you do start to feel a connection with the horse; their character and style or preference of riding. I wish riding a horse was still the main source of travel, and I feel we missed out on that incredible experience
I think it's part of our internal longing to be amongst nature and natural things. It's in our DNA.
Give that poor ol' man a bigger chair god damn it!!! Love your videos guys❤😅 much love from Czech Republic😊
Thanks 😊
Hawk 11, I hope!
I did a 3 day motorcycle tour on the Izu Peninsula this past summer and it was the best experience of my life. The people are so friendly and the scenery is amazing! Make sure you try and onsen!
I'm betting you are either going to ride a Honda GB350 or a Kawasaki Meguro K3. I rode the Meguro and it was a great bike! If I could, I would have never gotten off the bike!
Can’t wait to see the horse ride , and the Asia trip should be fab
Beautiful surroundings
Firstly, the old man is looking very well 🎉.. is the larder in Rotherham.. your trip sounds very interesting.. I'm not sure I've the courage for Asia and Japan.. great relaxed video ❤❤ stay well everyone 🎉
@@martinehulme8743 thanks 😊
The Larder is in Burrough Court in Rutland 👍🏼
Hey, I am in Osaka now! How can I see you?
You will enjoy riding here. There are many congested areas that are going from red light to red light, however, and very slow. You will be accustomed to driving on the left.
I have two young children in Japanese public schools. I just took my 12-year-old on a motorcycle trip on a BMW R1200RS through mountains and around water. Very hot at 98 degrees Fahrenheit! I ride a Honda SuperCub around Osaka. I can then speed around at near bicycle weight on the 125cc and park nearly anywhere. Motorcycle parking is tough in Japan in the cities--like driving a car.
Hey!
This is so cool to hear, I am currently in Tokyo. The other day I rode a chopper accompanied by one of the guys from the shop, was an amazing experience!
I will only be in Osaka for one day unfortunately so I won’t be doing any riding there :( I’m with my girlfriends family so I’ve not got much time for bikes during the Japan part of the traveling. I believe I’m travelling to Osaka on the 7th 😊
Oh, in Japan already! Typhoon coming this weekend!
I would love to see you in Osaka just to say hello.
Looking forward to that 😖 yes would be great to say hello to you!
Have a great trip Darcy. I could step into the breach while you're away. We could be, " the old man and the the even older man". Maybe not, doesn't scan does it?
When the time comes, and if you decide to do your own service on the V7, it would be amazing to see a valve adjustment and oil change video! Another stellar video! Keep it up.
Hi hope you enjoy your holiday with your family looking forward to seeing the videos and can’t wait to see father on a horse that will be fun take care both of you
Have a great trip Darcy hope you keep up with some filming whilst you’re out there 👍
My guess for the Japan bike is a Honda CB350RS.
Great change to the channel, horse 🐴 riding and change of scenery with Darcy. Looking forward to seeing how this 2 months of videos goes. We'll done you two.
Loved that gull wing Merc. The Porsche was good too. Have a great trip in Asia. I'm going with 2024 Honda Shadow 750 cc for the bike your going to be riding.
I had a horse riding lesson for my 30th birthday as a challenge as I was very wary of them. I enjoyed it so much I ended up becoming a very capable rider over the following years. Trust me, horse riding is fun, and just as mentally therapeutic as riding any bike is. These days I ride motorbikes and love the freedom they bring.
As for mental health, if you're suffering, *talk to someone* don't be a prisoner to your mind....
Awesome video as always ❤
Thanks again!
Mate, love that R18! I am going to get one day.
Thanks for the videos! Enjoy your Asia tour. Perhaps the Honda CB350 single.. which would be great here in UK
Oh I miss England. Have a great time in Asia Stay safe.
Nice vid as usual, however -
1. The #1 exhaust for Guzzis is Agostini! ;)
2. Are you buying a T800/UpMap "kit"?
3. You do know that pesky little "E5 E10" sticker comes off the tank right? :) It is a free eysore remedy, mine lasted less than 48 hours before i peeled it off.
4. Enjoy your travels! Tokyo is awesome! It is the only place in Asia i have visited.
Cheers!
I'm a bit like Darcy. Horses don't have an off switch.
Lucky you! Seven weeks in Asia. Japan is really nice and the weather in September to October is very warm and you get the odd rain here and there. Have Fun🩷
Hopefully you are going to India, I had my 1st motorbike experience in Goa back in 2013. It took until my 50th birthday in 2022 to actually purchase my 1st bike, a Trident.
Still love RE bikes today. I believe there is a RE dealer and cool coffee shop in Goa now. Safe trip.
Great stuff guys, hope Japan goes well, looking forward to the videos, and the horse riding, lol 👏👍😀🏍
You will enjoy the break there. I already know that yo are gonna film film something interesting. Anyways the Old Man will continue with "reviewing bikes" and that is already a traditional thing. :)
Japan is most unexpected of your destinations!
I came to know your channel through RoyalEnfield videos, as not many Japanese vloggers feature the brand.
I'm eagerly waiting to hear what you find here.
Greetings from Tokyo
I'm fancying a bit of horse riding, no idea why I just do. No idea how to start one though or where the brakes are!
Another good video and looking forward to the Asia series and future videos.
You old smoothie at 4:06! Great video.
Quality 👌
Your dad's R18 is truly awesome and really suits him. I'd love to see him test ride the Triumph Rocket 3 and see how he likes it. Chopsy got the privilege of riding on behalf of Triumph on the new 2024 edition Rocket 3 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed up the hill. He looked amazing on it. Unfortunately, he loves his sports bikes so I don't expect him to have one any time soon.
We have reviewed the Rocket twice, if you have not seen them then look through our Triumph play list 👍🏼
Yes love to u both , great channel : my brother done it himself 26 yrs ago
Not so much help around then not that I can remember , still kills me to this Day
All the best mark 🇬🇧🍺👍🏻
Enjoy Asia! Looking forward to some exotic videos. As for the mysterious transport, as you said it's "up your street" it has to be either the Honda CB350 H'ness or perhaps the Meguro K3, (which I'd love to see). Of course, it could be that _real_ living classic, the Yamaha SR400, which came out in about 1978 and is still going strong in Japan. Stay tuned! 🤔
Great vid as always.
Beautiful looking restaurant for lunch.Cheers.
Last time I rode a horse was 1968 and it threw me over a fence and then took its self home leaving me in a clump of fresh super stingy nettles. That was in Devon and the only thing I enjoyed on that holiday was the cream and jam scones. I ate so many I'm sure I developed an eating obsession. Overall it wasn't a great holiday however I learned to ride a motorcycle many years later and life got a whole lot better. Whilst they don't cure ones mental health issues they certainly help to keep the lid on things. Great vid and hopefully the Old Man has good insurance when he gets on the cuddy.
Walking the dog yesterday and there was a young woman walking what looked like a large dog on a lead but it was a tiny pony.
Mr Pringle is one gorgeous horse!
Meguro K3 ? IMO, the very best looking of all the retros.
I honestly thought you were leaving RUclips but thank goodness you arent. Enjoy your vacation and i look forward to the videos. My guess is the Honda CB350.
Thank you so much!
First of all the Old man knows how to approach a horse he did everything correctly, I was impressed. Secondly the Old man looks like a Viking. No kidding.
I could listen to the old man wax poetically about bikes all day.
Hope the bike you’ll ride is a Honda CB1100 EX. 🤞🤞
I love horses. That soft dapple grey was so sweet, just tasting you, not biting 😂
Hi Darcy and old man 👍 it's mark from Wirral Merseyside 👍 I've just watched your RUclips video and you both had really nice weather and something to eat and drink at the larder place and it just looks amazing nice and quiet with very nice staff that works there and everything is all local the food and just don't see that much these days.. anyway Darcy you enjoy your self in Japan and old man enjoy your self aswell and keep your RUclips videos coming out please i really enjoy watching them with the motorcycles and talking about the motorcycles you are riding. And both of you take care please or by the way Darcy please make sure you get to do RUclips videos on your upgrade on your motorcycle with fitting new exhaust slip-ons. Great RUclips video by the way and the weather was great 👍 thanks from mark from Wirral Merseyside 👍
Looking forward to your Japanese adventures.
Absolutely fantastic that you are promoting mental health in this video. Such an important issue in today's society. Much overlooked. Well done guys,
Definitely an affinity between horseriding and motorcycling .
I would guess the bike in Japan - Honda CB1100 EX :) I own one 2014 model. But it was dead with Euro5...
Dealers can't give away those R-18's here in the states.. My local dealer has a new '23 100th anniversary edition for $12k!!! I love them... one of the coolest looking bikes around!
It’s the same in the UK too! Such a shame, but hopefully will be good for resale many years down the line as they’ll be so rare
Darcy, my guess is that you will be riding in Japan the Kawasaki Meguro K3 (similar to the W800).
Cheers from Hokkaido! At this time of year, we've the weather and the roads - too hot and humid down Tokyo way.... stay hydrated!🍻
Edit: I'll take a wild stab at Meguro K3.
Hi 👋 thanks for that 👍🏼
Looks a nice place to go to for lunch. I have to keep looking at the person on the bench, thought it was someone in a power ranger outfit 😂 Enjoy your trip to Japan how exciting 👍🏼
Hey there, both of you should come to India and ride to Ladakh. This will be a hell of a ride and adventure in the Himalayas. What say?
We'd love to! Hopefully next year 🤞🏼
I think it will be Honda GB350, that's right ? Best regards!
I don't remember which American film actor said this. But, what he said is that he preferred riding a motorbike, as opposed to riding a horse, is because the controls, clutch, brakes, steering, throttle were more likely to obey your input. That is where his comment ended. I would add, not the case for horses! And, that is why it takes an especially more courageous, confident, humble, compassionate, lenient person to ride a horse.
I had two friends who committed suicide in their late twenties. Both were high achievers academically as well as in their personal lives - came across as incredibly driven, energetic, focussed and highly personable. The first was my best friend through university who got a 1st Class Honours Degree in engineering and after graduating worked for Shell as a Drilling Engineer on a North Sea oil rig but suffered from manic depression (high highs and low low's). The second (who I was less close to latterly) got something like 10-12 'O' levels and went on to get a Ph.D in Materials Science. They were both very smart, athletic as well as having practical skills in spades. The issue they both had was they set such high personal standards that if they failed to achieve the lofty goals they set for themselves they start to think life was not worth living. They had a completely distorted perspective on their own intrinsic worth. People with mental health issues are not always people who have obvious problems. The place you are eating at looks great.
Tokyo! I used to live there. Great times.
Hi ,I noticed the BMW doesn't have that hideous license plate on it, I am curious what that plate is and if you all could get that one instead.
Great video as always , horses don’t work on the road , whatever speed you come round the corner in your car or bike the snooty horse riders always kick off and tell you to slow down even if your doing the speed limit . How are we supposed to know they are there ? Go back to the field ?
Don’t forget that in the countryside, a speed limit is a maximum; not a target, and that in some places such as a blind bend, where there could be horses or a tractor with a bale spike coming at you, a considerably slower speed may be appropriate. This is coming from The Ol Man, an ex boy racer, but as someone always aware of countryside hazards. If you see a horse on the road, no matter what the rider does whether ott or not, please always slow down to walking pace; we always do. 👍🏼👍🏼
Someone said that the the offbeat sound of a Harley Davidson was like a horse cantering.
Darcy had a 125cc pony
Darcy off to japan so finally we can see him riding so good japanese refined engine bikes. Btw BSA gold star launched here recently and totally love the retro classic looks of the bike,almost everyone liking it by the way it looks itself.
My guess is Yamaha SR 400 or 500
Good look on your travels..my guess for your bike is the new honda cb360?
I’m looking forward to your Japanese 🇯🇵 videos (and the horse riding). I subscribe to 4 different Japanese motorcycle vloggers at the last count, it’s a fascinating country and they ride on the left. Enjoy sleeping on the floor ! 🇬🇧
Hilarious can’t wait for someone my age riding a new horse 🐴 . Fantastic 😊
That's a relief Darcy. I thought you'd jumped ship to work for CCM! You'd hate that mate. 😂
Darcy, take off that rubber covers out of top fork bolts, bike looks much better without them.
Motorcycles literally got me out of depression, my life as a whole and achievements improved 10 fold since i got into motorcycling 6 years ago, it is a wonderous thing what an engine on 2 wheels can do for your mental well being.
I'm 31 right now and i know motorbikes will forever be a part of my life till i'll be bed ridden, when i'll die i'll want to be burried with my motorcycle on top of my casket since i will plan to ride into the afterlife.
Great to hear motorcycles have helped you through your depression 👍🏼👍🏼
Nice vid!
Honda CT125. called it
You going to test ride a CB 1100
Colm from Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️
My guess for your choice of bike is either a Z900 or a W800.
Review of a horse, cannot wait.
