If you didn't know, Classic Rides isn't just a YT channel, all the videos on here are made possible by a small e-commerce shop selling a few good items for modern classic bikes.

So for those of you that were waiting for Digley panniers to come back in stock, they're available in store now at:

It's 2024 - Up to Now

My yearly round up video is only three days late this time, maybe next year I'll get it published in time for New Years Day.

Another week without a video, and one more to come.

Over the past few months I've been a developing a lovely case Tennis elbow, to the point where I've needed to take a few weeks away from riding. I've got one more week to go, then hopefully I can start riding a little again and the videos can continue.

Until then, I hope you'll bear with me; normal service will resume shortly.
Matt.

I don't do motorcycle 'reviews', but if you wanted to hear my thoughts on 2k miles on the Classic 350 and also were interested in what modifications I've made to bike, this might be the video for you.

Finally a chance to create a good old fashioned Classic Rides video. In this one I head up to Yorkshire on the 350 to visit a film location and a castle 🏰

Once again the weather has thwarted my video plans this week; hopefully I'll get a chance to film something in the coming days 🤞🏻.

When the weather's terrible, I can usually be found uploading a few pics onto my Instagram account. So if you're missing your Silvie or Donkey fix, you can see them at: www.instagram.com/mattmcfadden

There's also a 'Classic Rides' Instagram page which is mostly for the luggage side of things: www.instagram.com/classicridesuk. I always love seeing where on the planet the bags end up, so if you have some of my bags on your faithful steed and would like your pics shared on the page, please send them over to pics@classic-rides.co.uk

Anyway, ta-ta for now,
Matt.
