Love the way Freddie states no more references to witches then shows a broomstick in the next shot! Brilliant!

Hi Freddie, the original Scrambler for the U.S. market was a single cylinder light weight off road machine. A far cry from the modern heavy weight twin. I've just bought one for restoration! It's a beautiful old classic.

Hi Freddie I see you visited my hometown of Brightlingsea to pick up the folding table. Pity you never had time for a look around, the waterside is a popular place to just sit and look over the harbour. Down the end of the promenade is a burger bar which is a popular visit for bikers and the lookout tower which has a bit of a lean on it. Good luck with your new enterprise and keep the vids coming. Ride safe m8.

Was this the brief one in the park somewhere in a little town? Great day’s journey from the both of you👌 I thought Monika was going to put the camera down to assist you putting the folding desk in the Fiat… but alas, footage is important 😎😂😂 Thank you both for being cool🙌

Fairly new subscriber Freddie, enjoy your content. Your a lanky #ugger, and a total short arse.😊. Meant that in a good banter way. I was very ill during pandemic. I blame vaccines. Crohn’s, septic arthritis and pancreatitis. Blah blah. Got medical retirement. So decided to get a bike, was petrified, due to abdominal discomfort I get on daily basis. So, I thought, if too uncomfortable I can sell it. Fast forward 7 months…….I now have 2 bikes. Royal Enfield 350 Meteor (now modified up) as I was struggling on tippy tip toes, I decided on a New Honda Rebel 500se. Thankfully, I can flat foot it. Bumble the Meteor, I owned for 3 months, was offered a £1000 less than I paid. And spent money putting on, low seat, crash bars, heated grips, fly screen, sump guard, touring mirrors, deluxe foot pegs. So I decided ……hey, I don’t dislike Bumble. When I stop for a latte, in Aberdeenshire, it’s a talking point with passer by’ers. I now added a red rooster exhaust and DNA filter and plate, giving her a lovely sound. Might look into getting someone to lower her, so I can put more feet on the ground. My Rebel, is great too, I added crash bars, rear seat rack, heated grips, and bar risers. I am now convinced this has helped my health greatly! 3200 miles on Meteor, and 1800 on Rebel……so be time to remain in the garage,as winter looms. Hopefully the shivers,and cold feet and hands stay at bay, this winter. But, I now got next summer to look forward too.😊 And plenty RU-vid videos to watch till then. If up this way,and you require a wee Royal Enfield to use, then your most welcome (Aberdeenshire) keep up the good work. Wee Mark 😊
