Thanks, I’ll check out your videos

Who’s this?

@@simondawson81 Kate!!??

Can’t win them all

So do I 🥰🥰

Hey, not a lot really, don’t do it much, hopefully wouldn’t really fall off bad enough to worry and if it is bad just make sure you know your location for emergancy services, what three words, that kind of thing.

Ooo ok not sure, been a while since I’ve been, best to check the Facebook page

Thanks, one of my favourite tracks without the fog! ☺️

I did miss a few corners and venture off into the rough! 🥵🥵

@@simondawson81did well, it’s a shame… the Saturday was lovely conditions up there ☀️

Great film and quality too. It really got foggy up the top

@@ricbchirop4355 bit of a shame I didn’t think to wipe the camera but hey ho 😇

Well done from last to 4th Good track but can easily have you out if you go on the rough

Thankfully after a few days which side of the road becomes normal but satnav and mic problems is an ongoing issue. Just re-building my setup in my helmet for Norway, leaving on Friday. Follow me on Facebook to see the action 😎

@@simondawson81 Snap! And then when I got back from my European tour it took me a week To remember to ride on the left 🤦🏻‍♀️

Enjoy Norway. It’s on my list 💖

I usually go there to finish off my tyres 🤣

Thanks 👍

Never touch anything, it’s normally me that needs firming up 🤪

And beautiful it is! 🥰

That good!

Exactly

Exactly

Thanks for watching 👍🏻 all 15 parts are on my channel, glad you enjoyed the first one, it was my first time filming and editing a bike trip so hopefully the episodes improve as you watch through. I used a hero max next to my screen which i shot a mixture of 360 and standard footage. TBH I didn’t bother with 360 for my second trip to Ireland as it just adds another layer of pre-edit before the edit 🥵 Off to Norway in two weeks on the bike so hopefully serious 3 coming soon.

I think we pass through there later in the series

Poor you 😂

Thanks Mark and good riding Sunday, are you going to clatter?

Sounds amazing, it’s such a great spot! Hope you enjoy your trip, send me a few pics when you get there 😇😇

Thank you very much 😇😇😇

Not that time, I left Rimini and headed to Sarnano to where my uncle has a house so through the mountains and then south diagonally to Termoli. It’s on my list to go back and cover more areas as I really enjoyed Italy. I will try and hit that area next time 😇😇

@@simondawson81 sweet. Pintura di bolognola is a great spot just above fiastra lake near sarnano

Thanks David, you boys buggered off into the distance, I need to up my game 😎

Took me a good few hours last night 😎😎

Thanks 😂 who is it?

Don’t recognise the handle

Thanks, wasn’t sure if it would work, came out ok in the end 😇

The owner said he is waiting for funding from the government but it will be years

Much better in the flesh, have you been?

Fair enough, I was doing this as a favour for the Standing with Giants team who wanted a bit of record of the installation. It was only my second time out with the drone, the first being my earlier visit. I will be watching your restored footage, very impressive work!

@@simondawson81 I was there 4 weeks ago. Originally I planned to deploy a drone there too, but all the maps show that drones are forbidden along the D-day coasts (even the <250 gram ones), unless I got that wrong. Don't get me wrong, I love your video. I stood there with tears in my eyes, looking at the emotional silhouets display. I am currently editting my own visit, mixed with 1944 footage and intend to use "I vow to thee my country" as background music (after having searched for hours on Epidemic Sound for copyright-free sad music, but gave up).

PS, do you maybe have any unused drone footage of flying over the silhouets (e.g. ca. 5 to 10 seconds) that I could use (including crediting your channel)?

I had permission to fly organised by the Normandy Memorial so luckily I was ok. I am more than happy for you to use as much of my footage as you like. 😇

@@simondawson81 Thank you very much. However, RU-vid does not like "re-used content". It has got my channel into trouble before. Do you maybe have any unused drone footage? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for your feedback, same for me, I wasn’t expecting to be so moved walking through the giants. Have you seen my later video once the installation was complete?

Thank you, I’ll have a look

I’ve done 20,000 mile across Europe so I’m thinking shitty fuel

Thanks Sam!

Thanks, I haven’t won a race yet so thinking if I win a few to move up a class, struggling to get on the podium if all the riders turn up.

@@simondawson81 I'll see u at baden Hall next one, I've been out for a while, your video has inspired me thank u

Great stuff! What group will you be in?

@@simondawson81 not sure yet have done one for ages, see u there

Yeah still going! 😇😇

Probably need a spray with water proofing

Thanks Mate! I had a look at your channel and subscribed, loving the hard enduro, is most of that wales? I’ve done a bit, entered the valleys extreme in January 23, it’s was hard!!!!

@simondawson81 my pleasure pal, and no we go all over tbh I'm located manchester way. Doing my first ever race this sunday at wor events, so that's how I came across your channel. Keep up the content

Ah nice, Firbank? I can’t make this Sunday, I’m off to Ireland for a week on my adventure bike for a warm up trip 2024. I have a 15 part video of my trip to South Italy and back last year, check it out. What group are you going in?

How did you get on?

@simondawson81 I came 16th place so not really good haha, enjoy your trip to Ireland 🙏

I’m not sure what you’re saying? Sounds like you’re halfway through a conversation?

@@simondawson81 every one at 18 wants to buy all the cool dumb shit they want n share it like a little kid at show and tell most can’t he can so we keeping looking

@@simondawson81 I am on the wrong video LOL

Thanks Mark, appreciate the feedback 👍🏻 rough old track Sunday 🥵

Thanks 👍🏻 were you at Maeshfn? I can’t match up RU-vid names to faces 😇😇 I don’t think I can make Firbank because I’m away doing a motorbike trip round Ireland, videos to follow 😜
