MonkeyKnuckle Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Great video bud. And I know that roundabout you went round in Portsmouth, go round, over it all the time. What were the kids arguing about at the end?

Guest Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Rod I see you have the Nolan N102 with the external sun visor.Have you ever had a problem with it dropping down unexpectedly while you're riding?I had to tape mine up during an overnight ride to Scotland.

Guest Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Nice one Rod York!! Enjoyed that. I especially appreciate the way you spliced some footage of real landings around footage of your visit to Mulberry Harbour. I see you also got to see Pegasus Bridge. I hope your boys got something out of the trip in that respect, it is quite difficult to comprehend the scale of the landings. I'm am sure though, that you managed to point out the bullet holes etc in pill boxes ..... I camped on Omaha beach on the 40th anniversary of the landings. Is an experience that is still with me today.Did you get to walk around the glider landing sites at Pegasus bridge? I found that quite moving.Brilliant video though. And the snails... giggled for ages I did!! I remember having to do that too...!!
