@@victoradrian6125 Thanks , yes it’s great

@@kerrymclaughlin4720 Hi , I’m pretty sure it’s a 19.5 inch frame. I’m 5’10 “ tall . There is no size on the frame to check and after a quick measure 19.5 seems correct

@@newforestexplorer Thank you so much for the quick reply! This is really helpful as the bike is going to be a bit of a drive for me.

@@kerrymclaughlin4720 Most welcome and I’m sure you will love the bike if you decide to go get it

@@dnrspdr03canadian95 Possibly if I lived close enough but I don’t and I don’t drive. It’s a job the owners of Trafalgar Park should be doing

@@SamWalksALot Haha yes 🐴 Thanks Sam

Thanks very much ! Have a great day too

@@MrSuperG Really? How much has it grown since then?

@@newforestexplorer the girth is substantially bigger by about 10 cm. maybe if you go back in 20 years and measure the trunk.

@@MrSuperG Yeah hopefully I’ll still be around. What was going on in 1969 here then?

@@SamWalksALot Yes ! I think this and Grovely would be most interesting ! I’m surprised no one has done one of those thingy wotsit scan thingys on them lol

@newforestexplorer neither do I. Maybe it's lack of funding. It's great to keep the mystery alive though

@@SamWalksALot I agree yes! If it turned out there was nothing underneath at all then it would just be some nice beech trees I guess and nothing else. I believe the Grovely story more than this one

@@SamWalksALot Thanks Sam! I see you have a new one up - tuning in now !

@newforestexplorer I hope you like it! I'm catching up with all the videos myself. Last week was one of those weeks 😅

@@SamWalksALot I’m all Wimbledon this time of year! It’s one of the only sports I watch 😅

@@OmnielCapote Legend has it mate . There’s a story . You can google it

@@newforestexplorer I'll take a look. Have a great day my friend.

@@OmnielCapote You too buddy

@@jameswalksinhistory3848 Yes legend has it ….

Thank you ☺️

Thanks James

Thanks very much Sam 😊

Thanks very much! Yes several people have mentioned I should at least tag some of my videos with ASMR. It’s difficult with the iPhone microphone sometimes as it really pics up wind noise and spoils everything

@@newforestexplorer the ones i have watched who do it have a separate audio/camera that drops down to foot level. i want to try doing some of my own but will have to buy an audio lead and I don't know how much they are. if you put hazel ASMR into your search bar there is a girl that does it and accompanies it with historic data like you anyway good luck hope to see more of yours soon

@@ginaapple123 Thank you , I’ll take a look at her channel . I’m sure the lead would be less than a tenner

Yes , I never knew about it , just stumbled upon it. Thanks mate

Thanks very much Omniel ! Glad you enjoyed it

It was James , thanks for watching

Thanks very much ! Yes it’s so lovely out here

Yes and a real shame the stained glass windows have been smashed. It’s a lovely walk for sure

@newforestexplorer for a moment there I thought you'd attempt to jump inside 😅😂 Lovely video

@@SamWalksALot I could have , but I’m a good boy these days 😅 I’ve seen inside , a friend went there a year or two ago and filmed inside

Thanks very much

I don’t understand your comment ?

Thanks very much it’s a lovely place

Thank you Janine

Thanks James, such a lovely walk up to the Chapel. Just a shame people have smashed windows to try and get in

@@newforestexplorer Yes very bad I think you will find a video somewhere on YT of someone in there-I seem to remember one

@@jameswalksinhistory3848 Yes I know someone who went here a year or two ago and filmed inside

@@newforestexplorer Not good

Fantastic! Definitely worth keeping these classic bikes

Thanks James , the bird lovers would love this place

🤣

Oh awesome ! Thanks for watching and good luck in the rebuild and sorry to hear of the theft

I’ve not received a screenshot and don’t think you can on here . If you read the comments below I go into detail on how to locate the tree

@@newforestexplorer Yes, I cannot post the screenshot. I have read your comment below but I cannot get what you mean. On the google map, the space you are referring to is to my left?

@@newforestexplorer Also there was no huge puddle today?

@@newforestexplorer Do I need to go past the gate?

@@newforestexplorer You don’t go on the cycle path, right? The gravel path is the one leading you to Fritham Plains?

It’s somewhat waterproof if you use the Fjallraven wax on the bag regularly

@@newforestexplorer ok. How long the waterproof will survive in one sweeping of wax

@@RChannelst Hard to say , depends how many times it’s gets wet I guess

@@newforestexplorer ok. Thank for the information

Don't expect the g1000 fabric is waterproof, its only water-repellent when very new. Put wax on will a little bit better only but needs effort n time on the whole bag, and also the colour will darken losing the shinning new bag color. My g1000 bag also has a little bit worn out at the bottom edge surface after using 2 years but not affect using. Its sturdy, ok for everyday use, the colour n texture is attractive.The abrasion resistance is enough for daily use but not better than normal lyon as it seems to, the fabric of kanken series is more abrasive than g1000.

Thanks for watching Sam , glad you enjoyed it

Thanks !

Thanks very much for watching , glad you enjoyed it

Thank you James

Yes truly a bike to treasure and keep in the family

Cool , it’s a nice little place

Thanks James, yes an interesting little place

Great to hear ! 👍🏻

Yes it’s as you go through the village of Great Wishford and do a left at the church. Thanks for watching James
