Whilst we're being annoyed, I watched a couple of Missenden Flyer videos recently.

Specifically the one where he was "STOPPED BY ARMED POLICE!!!!" and was basically 15 mins of him trying to be pally with 2 officers stationed at Chequers because he'd stopped there to have a wank over whatever BMW had loaned him without any form of ID whatsoever and unsurprisingly they were a bit WTF are you doing here about it.

After riding through a 40 limit at what looked like 60+.

ffs how is he so popular?

[NotoriousREV]

I’m not sure he’s popular, it’s just that there’s not many other UK bike vloggers.

He's fucking insufferable. Awful, dull, terrible content.

[tim]

He's the shockdiamonds of the bike world. There, I said it.

[Barry]

I can't watch him, I tried but he's a dreadful rider and a terrible reviewer. That he has such a following just shows how weak the UK vloggers are. Richy Vida trying so hard to become a reviewer now too, he's no better.

Off to Wales in the morning for a bit of a tour around with some mates. Staying at Llanbister, these are our prospective routes



Riding back Monday morning. Should be ace!

Shame you’re not heading more northerly, we could have not met up due to lacklustre excuses.

New S1000RR seems to be doing the business, check out the latest two vids from 44Teeth. 196 at the wheel

Same as the old one, no?

I think the point they’re making is that Rutter is hitting 192mph on the TT course, whilst cornering through Kirk Michael village, on a 100% stock, out of the box, showroom model.

Oh sorry! Totally missed that. Was just looking at the TFT jizz dash and the numbers.

Has anyone ever discussed with you that you’re “brand new”? We have this discussion about my kids a lot: the youngest has definitely been here before. He’s sort of “knowing” and wise in a way beyond his years. The eldest is naive and a bit innocent and definitely on his first time round

You calling me thick, unobservant and sometimes over-enthusiastic? If so then I agree

Edit - not having a pop at Revlet The Elder there of course!

Edit 2 - it does make perfect sense - I feel like I'm constantly 'discovering' things that everyone else has always known.

I’m just saying we use the words “aw, bless your heart” to him a lot.

[JLv3.0]

Read the second edit, and yes I also get that a lot

It also explains why EVERYONE seems older than me, even when sometimes they're decades younger. This has got the brain wheels turning!

I haven't planned out my week in Wales yet, which I've got booked for the last week of June...I may well incorporate you route (okay, steal) into mine!

Let us know how you get on!
