We head off to find a beach in northern Wales where you're legally allowed to ride a motorcycle and drive on.

Having said that it looks like there were not many cars on the day you were there ??Probably something to do with folk being fed up of the regs in Wales ??????????????????????PleasePlease return and take time to review the land in its full glory its worth everyminute of your time trust me !!!!!!!!!!!

Ahh what memories. Used to spend all our holidays in at Green Acres Caravan site at Black Rock Sands, Morfa Bychan, back in the 70’s. Love North Wales. That was Criccieth Castle you saw in the background on the beach. You should have gone there (if time permitted). As a holiday treat we would go there for fish and chips and home made Cadwaladers ice cream! Not sure if they’re still there? First drove my parents car on that beach - an old Triumph Herald... well steered it sitting on my dad’s lap, as I couldn’t reach the pedals. Thanks for bringing back those joyous times Freddie and Monika.

Freddie, you inspired me to do my first ever (I’m 63) ‘mini’ (1 day) bike ‘tour’ around Snowdonia today, on my Triumph Speedmaster 1200 (2018). I loved every minute. Sitting ‘on’ a bike offers much better views than ‘in’ a car. I even liked the average speed cameras as they meant I was much less likely to get blasted by a ‘crotch rocket’. Keep up the good work as you are making people’s lives better, not ‘just’ making (excellently crafted) videos.

Hi Freddie. Been to Blackrock sands since being little in the 60's. One of my earliest memories of the region was a pack of Angels cruising along the beach one evening. Made quite an impression. They used to camp at a site by the cliffs. North Wales is a great area for biking. My wife and I try to shoot up from our base in the Forest of Dean at least twice a year. Beddgelert and the Lanberris pass on a rainy day is really worhwhile. So is Criccieth ( castle, superb chip shop, pebble beach) and Abersoch (upmarket and boaty) Keep up the great work!

You want about 3 hours to get down to the Henny Swan for lunch and get back to Sudbury. It's great fun and quite scenic. Probably make an interesting video.

Blackrock sands , our favorite beach, we're there in two weeks for a long weekend for our wedding anniversary, and going on our bikes, love the place, must say it hasn't always been like that you used to be able to ride on the beach, we've been going there for over thirty years, if you go in the winter months it's quiet and you can ride on the beach. You could be cheeky and go back in the evening when he's gone but ride respectfully, as no doubt you would! 😉

Spent 9 months in Barnmouth building bungalows, in the days when pubs and shops were closed on sundays, not that long ago mid 80's.

I moved from southern england to north wales 20 years ago for all the reasons you mention. In good weather the ducati comes out, bad weather the himalayan hits the green lanes. Hiking good also. Honestly believe i am in biking nirvana. Still within good proximity of civilisation and manchester airport. My brother recently moved from Denver Colorado to Harlech as fell in love with the coastline and mountains and has just planted out a vineyard looking out to sea. If you are back in wales in 4 years time ill arrange a private tour. Perfect climate for grapes apparently. Cali moto app helps keep you away from busy roads and average speed camera zones. My business has offices in conwy, liverpool and chester but conwy has the nicest people / clients. Never had an issue with the welsh, most genuine lovely people. Enjoy rest of your time in gods country.

I love it when you guys explore the UK on bike, it’s so different to the scenery here in Texas, which is more like your Spanish trips.
