    EP.4 – Incredible day WALES! SOLO MOTORCYCLE TRIP UK – Snowdonia Park, Devil’s Staircase – Desert X



    A rollercoaster ride, that’s what this day was. Of course, one hopes for great weather during their rides and although I really don’t mind rain and strong winds, I just simply love documenting my trips A LOT and I knew Snowdonia National Park would be my area to go wild. But, when Wales gives me rain, I simply continue riding. It was a rollercoaster ride with (literal) ups and downs, what an incredible day!

    Luckily it looked less foggy on the camera’s than it was in real life. My everlasting self-doubt got ignited as I got into my head again when I had some unforeseen unpaved roads, but I decided to tackle it. At some point I have to get more confident off the road, right?

      Excellent ride! Well done for pushing yourself out of your off roading comfort zone. Gotta love the Welsh countryside, whatever the weather! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Thank You 🙏

      You did really well, that whole area is very special and in taking that chance you really got some of the very best that North and Mid Wales has to offer, even if it was wet. I’ve been green laning there on and off over twenty years, it hasn’t changed much at all. Anyone who might be interested should check out the abbey at Strata Florida, and the absolutely incredible County Road trail that runs from there down to join the road close to the top of the Devil’s Staircase (lightweight bike and off road tyres pretty much mandatory!). Try standing up on your pegs more, have the bars comfortable seated / standing.

      I haven't been to Wales in donkey's years and had forgotten how wild and beautiful it is. Thanks for reminding me. Enjoying your ride with you! Excellent drone footage, sharp and not rushed.

      It Always rains in wales but when the sun comes out there no place more beautiful we used to the crap weather here in wales 😅 don't brake over cattle grids either 😂 Elan Valley res are beautiful and black mountains are great bike roads 😂

      If you lived in the uk 🇬🇧, you’d be jealous of everywhere else, sadly over the last few years it has taken a real nosedive… but yes, it does have beautiful countryside, but that’s about it. Good luck with your travels, and great video btw🤙🤙🤙

      Goed bezig! Ik probeer op mijn eigen YouTube kanaal iets soortgelijks te doen maar jouw video's zijn kwalitatief beter. Dus ik probeer iets te leren van je. Daar komt bij dat ik volgende maand ook Wales wil rijden, dus je bent een goede bron van inspiratie!

      As a Welshman living in Australia for 20 years this video brought a strong case of homesickness and a tear to my eyes. Found this video by accident and am now a subscriber and looking forward to watching all your other videos.

      Thank you for a great video, and for the memories of home.

      That weather reminds me of riding through Applecross. The best views in Scotland. If only we've could have seen a further than three feet through the fog.😅

      Just discovered your videos and just subscribed. Please remember to stay left, you're far too interesting and good-looking to have anything bad happen.

      Just seeing this – Excellent video! Riding in the rain sucks but you absolutely made the best of it. (And I love the rolling start @ 16:49!)
      I've ridden in Scotland but clearly I need to go to Wales.

    39. Centurion on

      We were in the Brecon Beacons for a walking holiday, and to say it was WET was an understatement. In the sun Wales is absolutely beautiful

      Great video.thanks. Wet cattle grids can become like ice, especially if you increase the throttle just as you go over them as I found out in the Lake district hence nearly came off my bike.
