We ride off to an 800 year old pub with a fascinating history. Tucked away next to a creek, it’s reachable by both land and sea.

They made a movie “ called Mutiny on the Bounty “ the ship ended up on Pitcairn island were 9 or the 10 remaining mutineers died or were killed by each other or the Polynesians that they picked up on an island ( along with some women) only one ☝️ remained with children and others . Anyway they were Pardoned by the Queen and settled on Norkfork island ( some stayed on Pitcairn ) and the descendants remain to this day . A friend of mine that lives on Norfolk Island is a descent of the Bounty Mutineers.

@FreddieDobbs Ай бұрын

Ahhhhhh that’s the connection! I watched a documentary on Pitcairn, but couldn’t quite connect the dots. Thanks for this🙌🏻

@lensmann100 Ай бұрын

@@FreddieDobbsFreddie, interesting fact, both Captain Bligh ( deposed Captain of The Bounty,) and Lt Fletcher Christian (who led the mutineers,') were closely connected to my home, The Isle of Man. Bligh married a Manx girl, and Fletcher Christian was born on the Island- I actually went to school with one of his descendants. Cheers, Al.

@alecv4622 Ай бұрын

Yes! Also enjoyed the Ant Middleton series Mutiny where they try and recreate the same trip. Pretty insightful into the hardships Bligh and his men went through.

@samirkotecha9481 Ай бұрын

I am glad you mentioned the movie 🎥 that was made about this. I think it has been made three times as a movie 🎥. I once spoke to a Captain Bligh who must of been the great great great grandson of the Captain on the bounty

@ajittffcure Ай бұрын

Freddie, I can't tell you how much I admire seeing your videos. Each and every video of yours is a treat for us. I don't think there is a channel like this (it is a whole package, a biker's video disguised as a Travel-History channel or vice-versa). Astounding to say the least! Cornwall is so picture-perfect beautiful! These videos make me want to return to the UK. What I really like about the UK is that there is always this sense of being in a time warp and inside History. It's exactly how we outsiders imagine Britain to be through books and stories. As you were leaning on the gate to talk about how the roads are still underdeveloped and the houses on the other side of the creek, there was a sign showing "Still Missing..." Of course, there is also that incredible humour to match for! "Marriages performed by the captain are only valid for the duration of the voyage!" I think probably the reason the green bungalow is abandoned is that it is haunted. Cornwall seems like the perfect place to write stories and poems. Keep up the incredible work. I hope in one of your podcasts, you'd be kind of enough to share how you film such videos. These are proper documentary type films. Who shoots these videos and how... I mean you are not just showing the front view as you ride your motorcycle but also the side view, rear, etc of you in action? By now, I know Monica has a huge role to play in this (kudos to her) but even then in some shots, it is hard to believe that someone travelling with you is shooting like this (unless it is a TV or Film Crew). You need not reveal it if this is trade secret but I am into filmmaking, music, etc (another reason why I find your videos so captivating... it started with Goa just last month) and hence the curiosity. I totally understand why you have such dedicated viewers. It's thoroughly well deserved. Best wishes. 🌟

Way back in 1978 (18 at the time), I was lucky enough to spend a couple of weeks with my trusty Suzuki GT185 at a family friends house across the water at Point. Travelled down by train from Paddington to Truro with the bike tucked away in the mail carriage. Unusually glorious weather for the duration, I spent nearly every day touring around the north & south coast. Haven't been to Cornwall for about 10 years now, as barring this trip I was always caught out by bad weather.

I love Cornwall. My father was was fleet air arm and stationed at Coldrose in the mid 60's and we lived in Helston which was nearby.. My grandmother was from the small town of Carleen so at least some Cornish blood flows through the veins. It was a great place to be a kid and I have many fond memories. I left Helston in 1966 to attend the Royal Hospital School in Suffolk which you have driven past and commented on Freddie... Great work as always.

Hey Freddie, I'm an avid motorbike rider myself but also really enjoy owning a small 14' aluminium motor boat (colloquially called a "tinny") here in Port Stephens on the New South Wales coast, Australia. If you ever live somewhere that it makes sense for you to own a small boat I'd really highly recommend it. The exploration you can do into little coves, rivers, creeks is so much fun - a great sense of adventure whilst being in the beautiful outdoors. I've spent all day on the water today with my dog and two friends having an awesome time. The sense of adventure reminds me a lot of what I enjoy about poking around off-the-beaten -track areas on my motorbike.

Fantastic loving this adventure Freddie & Monika. Brings back some fabulous memories, Thank You. Knowing your schedule is pretty full up however if you can add a couple of days. Travel up through Land's End there's an airport near Sennan Cove & a light aircraft ride awaits with fantastic low flying views over St Ives, we did it for £90 for 2. Then head to Clovelly, we parked 20 metres from the sea & stayed overnight in the hotel right next to our bikes. It is Awesome. Then if you can travel up to Lynton & Lynmouth ... fantastic .... Then the best 20 miles of biking roads in our fabulous islands awaits, it is the coastal road between Lynton & Lynmouth to Minehead ... Pure Motorcycle perfection. On the way you will ride down Porlock Hill the steepest hill in GB. Enjoy 🌟🌟🧡
