Hey, I do great road trips. One I did a few years back. Bought a motorcycle in Phoenix and rode it home to Alberta, Canada and I got it serviced in Las Vegas. Over 1500 miles in 3 days in 44C weather. Some of the most amazing roads and and scenery. Over the Hoover Dam, drive in to Las Vegas, deserts etc. By the way, 44C is f'ing hot in motorcycle gear. When you stop at lights, your leather gloves start melting to the shape of your hand!

Happy belated birthday, Harry. You are one of my role models in life. You are truly inspiring and a great guy. Thanks to you and your wife’s camera work, you have brought me a lot of peace in my life at a time of unrest.

@zgpm7031 2 года назад

He is your role model, but it is very unlikely you will ever obtain his level of wealth or lifestyle. Its good to look up to people, but dont forget, he does these videos to make more money. Its important you find your own way in life, and accept you are average at best, and be content in that. Harry is a very lucky old man, but also a ruthless businessman who allegedly beat his wife when it was rumoured she was having an affair with James May.

@hugemoose101 2 года назад

When I lived in France, beaujolais nouveau was explained to me as cheap, young, unaged (in fact it can't age because fermentation is too short - hence no point keeping it). Harry's got the right idea - get it down you! But all those English guys swilling it around and smelling it like it's a '53 Cognac.... lol!

It would be an absolute pleasure to guide you through it. Thanks you.

As you’re taking advice from the comments regarding tire changes: I’ve always learned to not work ‘in a circle’ when tightening the bolts, but to do one ans then the one on the opposite side, making sure that the wheels move on the hub in a straight line. (Hard one to explain when not writing in your own language) Way more important: CONGRATS HARRY!

Always great videos thanks ! Regarding the circuit of Reims, there was few years back "weekend de l'excellence automobile" and they recreated the track and a lot of nice cars met there. 1 problem the parc fermé was in the mud and now it seems the event exists again under de name Reims-Gueux "légende" and will occur on September 18th 2022. Maybe an opportunity to test this track

His car knowledge and enthusiasm is just awesome with the exception I think that he will find it’s maybe the B500 without sounding like a pedant, ridden that on a bike, super road. Keep the videos coming, I even watch the farming ones which are interesting.

@keith6360 2 года назад

These are my favorite videos! Always inspiring to see roadtrip / grand tour videos done with unconventional vehicle choices slash exotics. The thought process of prepping the car, picking a route, packing stuff into the car and how little you actually need to bring is enlightening and such a geeky thing for me. More power and happy birthday Harry!

When I was PR manager for Suzuki GB in 1981 we took three big bikes and some loony riders on the Beaujolais run. It was great fun and we were in the lead right up until we hit the dock at Dover where a certain Audi team were waiting with a very famous ex F1 driver who took over and beat us back to the London wine bar finish line. Great event, crap wine.

It's just a bit of fun". I think that's why I love your videos because no matter what you are driving or what you are doing you are down to earth. Keep up the great work! 👍

Nice video...and yes, I also remember reading about the Beaujolais runs of the 80's in 'Fast Lane' magazine, I think! Looking forward to seeing the B500 on film in the next one. I've done that road three times on/in three different vehicles: Yamaha FZ1 - probably the best, absolutely caned it (all within speed limits obvs); Triumph Tiger 1200 - good, but due to one of our group having an accident earlier in the holiday, was all a bit slower; Volvo XC60 with my lady wife...not alot to say about that drive, other than despite what she thinks, I was driving with restraint!!

In 1964 I got a job in Madang, New Guinea as a grocer. They had a 2 gallon licence to sell alcohol with groceries as long as they took a total of 2 gallons. The place was staffed by Aussies and as I had European heritage I was put in charge of the wines, spirits and tobacco. My 1st job was to get rid of all the "old plonk " that had been laid down on its side on the floor of the caged and locked room. There were 15 year old French wines! And the 1st bottle I took home that night was a Beaujolais. It was also the 1st red wine I gave my future wife of 51years.
