Out of curiosity is there a reason why you didn't upload the video to photobucket?

That looks like a great ride. Don't have many roads like that around me, especially not that many all together and empty like that.

It was an evening ride so most people are in their houses after work so not much traffic.It's a great time of day for a ride in the Summer.I often go out for an hour or two with a flask of coffee and stop at some nice spots for a smoke. I'm fortunate to live in a good part of the Country and have a beautiful County and roads just minutes from where I live in the City.It's a great feeling having some of the roads to myself and can let rip.I'm sure I must look curious to some passers by when stopped having a smoke/drink but I really so,"Stop to smell the roses".On some of those country roads the smell of wild garlic/honeysuckle/lavender etc in the evening is sometimes breathtaking. You just don't appreciate these things in a car.

Only space really.Mediafire allows larger files e.g they can be a max of 100 meg as a single file.Some of my music project files are large so I use several file storage places.

Those empty narrow paved country lanes look like ideal motorcycling roads. The lady with the baby carriage whose shoulder you appeared to brush must of thought of you as a hooligan though. A thought - in Ca. and the US, as far as I know, the low wave with the left hand when meeting other motorcyclists on the road is common. Is that not a custom in the UK as it would not be as visible to other riders when driving on the left? Thanks for the glimpse of my ancestral home!

We nod and on that occasion and as I sort of knew,it was a Police Patrol bike.I was off to a bike Cafe stop where I turned in and the police usually hang around trying to catch bikers when there's a known,"Bike night" 
There's a mega little road or two I'm going to vid.Some,"Green Tunnels" that are just wonderful to ride through at this time of year.

Actually I was no where near her(Camera deceives) and even pulled my Clutch in so as not to wake the baby just like I do when passing Horse Riders
