i love to see the shall we say experienced gentleman take a ride. i take my 85 year young motherinlaw for rides on my 2007 Road King classic all the time you should see the looks we get she loves it
Peter! SMoking is a bad habbit that i wouldnt wish upon anyone, please for your 50,000+ suscribers stop that dirty habbit and live your life with healthy lungs :(
Uh oh. I didn't know you were a smoker, Peter! Well, congratulations on defying the odds and living past 70 despite this habit... but I do wish you would stop. Sorry, I just had to put that out there. I care about you so much. (Both my parents died from smoking-related diseases, so this issue means a lot to me.)
Absolutely fantastic! What was your preference as a dealer? Did you ride Indians? I always remember the guys who would ride the insides of these giant barrels in Indian motorcycles. Wonderful bikes.
Hi Dear Drvrdug, thank you very much! :D Peter has given YouTube and his fans so much over the years, that I along with FSTOPDR & Heybeeg wanted to give something BACK to Geriatric1927! And he certainly enjoyed this Harley moment! The Manchester HOG Chapter & the Dealership owner were wonderful! A GREAT time was had by all! Nnek@ ;o) x
If you enjoyed your stay at that meeting and your ride only half as much as I enjoyed watching this video, then you had the best of days :-)! That was stunning. And I must say: A motorbike really suits you, Peter :-)!
Kudos to Nneka1963 and to her fellow "conspirators" for this this lovely idea.
Thank you for this reply, Nnekea ... oder darf ich auch sagen: Dankeschön für die Antwort? Ab und zu muss ich auch mal wieder Deutsch schreiben, obwohl ich auf YouTube eigentlich meine Muttersprache ja nie verwende :-) ...
I will take a look at your video right now - can't wait :-)
Yes, I saw at least one of them, and enjoyed it VERY much :-) ...
... oh, but ... *blush* ... We are spammig the comments on Peter's video here with off topic chit-chat ... I've got a better idea ... Done! Clicking that golden button on your channel was so easy :-)!
Hee hee... I enjoyed this. Seemed a bit odd to me, hearing Brit accents over the Harley roar... but they were all the same as the fellows I've known over on this side of the pond. (Still grinning) Grand folks with generous spirits.
Peter, this brought a tear to my eye. Watching you videos I was always aware of your dream to ride a Harley Davidson, especially when you talk about your funeral. I hope you had an amazing time. All the best, Ant. x
You just jumped on that motorcycle like a young lad. Respect! You are however such a kind man. Thank you for being here on youtube. You enrich this place so much! So Peter has been a HD dealer all his life? Or has he been a different kind of dealer?
the back seat is called the bitch seat... that biker made you his bitch. harly davidson is the most effecent way to convert fuel into noise without the adverse effectr of horsepower. in short they suck
30 thousand pounds or 13,000 either way thats about either 60US or 26US thousand. which is insane. i don't think they're that expensive here in the US
thats insane. the most expensive one here in the US is is $25,000 and they're custom. but the one that isn't is a touring and thats $17,000. not far from 30 in the UK, probably just the same as why lamborghini's and ferraris are more expensive in the US than europe.
Fabulous video Peter, glad you enjoyed your day, and 5 ***** to your friends who organised it for you, well done, Iv'e been to that place many times myself in the past
thanks peter for sharing such an amazing experience with everyone. I now cannot get the song Harley Davidson by bridgette bardot out of my head. I love that song. it definately looks like a blast riding those bikes, take care.
Never too old to rock and roll!...I have to say tho that those guys would be drooling over the enfields & vincents you were riding when you had your shop...still nothing beats a harley ...unless you can find an old indian!
Well Peter, you look right at home in the saddle. I think it's great that this was arranged for you. Never ridden a hog before, eh? So, how do you like the American iron?
So glad you got your harley ride Peter...as they say about riding a bike once you have masted it you never forget....you did very well getting your leg up over like you had just done it yesterday...lol
What a fantastic day out, Peter. I am so envious. I would love to own a Harley, but my pension would not stretch to it, so I must be content with my scooter. Maybe I'll get round to hiring one for a day, but even that is expensive, and I might be barred from insurance at 68.
Arrghhh I just posted a comment but I don't think it posted.. Anyway, amazing video Peter and I can imagine how delighted you must have been having a ride on a Harley. It made me laugh when you said "I haven't had my leg over for a long time" LOL, also thanks to Nneka for filming this and arranging it :)
Hi Andyc18! I personally wanted to give something to BACK to Peter, what he has given "US" over the years, we laughed, we cried and Peter is such a wonderful person to know! We, my Mum, Peter and I, ALWAYS have a laugh!!! I am so glad that Peter has a BRILLIANT time yesterday and he didn't have to wait until he died to appreciate it!!! *LOL*
Wow! Sitting on the backseat of a Harley Davidson... I'm not a motorbike enthusiast at all, but that would be exciting even for me. My compliments go to Nneka for that deliberate wonderful idea! True friends are priceless.
How wonderful, Peter. In my college days, I spent a lot of time on the back of bike with my boyfriend, riding up and down the hills of San Francisco. Great fun.
Awesome, simply awesome. The sense of excitement and sheer happiness is just overwhelming. So happy that you could experience this and I hope one day to do the same. I just love motorbikes, my uncle took me on a ride once (not a Harley, but It's still one of my fondest memories) and the sense of freedom and community when riding one (all the bikers you come across wave at you) is just amazing.
Thanks for this great video, I hope to see many more.
I grinned the whole way thru this video! I am so glad you got to have that experience its the best yes? I am just wondering how long until the Prius is sold and the Harley is parked in it's place? Ha ha! I'm tickled to death you finally got to ride one there's just something "special" about a Harley.
that looked fun peter, i used to love riding on my dads harley when i was little, he'd drive us up to the mountain and we'd then fish, brings back memories :P
Auw do you smoke? Thats not very healthy! Glad you enjoyed the Harley experience my uncle has always has had harleys, but always driven junk cars. Rather spends his money on a harley!
