Check out my 1977 Kawasaki Z650 B1, (UK Spec) father and son road trip,
we drove two up from Southern England down to the Basque country in Northern Spain.

Enjoy Ian T-J :P

Pretty awesome! Just watched Part 1. Your son is quite good with his narration, LOL. Would love to do something like that with my sons in the future. Unfortunately, I will have to wait until they can ride their own. Being that I have more than one boy. Thing I was surprised about most was that the majority of the bikes looked to be Harley Davidsons in that campground. I don't hate Harleys but they all look the same and it seems like that is all I ever see here in the U.S. Thanks for sharing.

That was great! A true road trip with camping, camaraderie, roadside repairs and great scenery. Your son did a great job with the narration and you both will have memories to last a lifetime

Great idea with the arrows on the windscreen.

Thanks for posting

The campsite was for traditional, middle aged, european bikes and the laid back cruising Harley image is strong with these sort of bikers.

Thanks for watching the video. :) Ian T-J

Very Observant ;)

Although I've been driving on the continent in Europe for over 25 years, after a rest stop I still revert to the left side of the road as in England. Hence the arrows on the pointing right on the screen are a life saver.

After a long trip in Europe I also have the same problem in reverse when returning to England !!!!

Ha Ha
I rented a car in Ireland last summer and despite the sticker on the windscreen pointing left I managed to end up on the wrong side of the road twice :laugh:

Thanks, it would be nice if my son did end up like Clarkson's with all his cars,

then perhaps I could call around and borrow then for a drive. :P
