I do enjoy your mini break videos, but really sorry to hear about your GSD.
Ive been out today too 20 c four of us great ride lunch in mountain village great ! Ride safe 👍🤣
Really sorry to hear about your lovely dog, Always loved, never forgotten.
My deepest condolences to you , Keira has gone for her long sleep, as a fellow GSD owner i feel your pain, our GS is also called Milo and is nine.
So sorry to hear about your dog, I admire your videos and always looked forward to spotting your dogs on the garage floor. Dogs are family.
So sorry for your loss
😢
So sorry to hear about Kira, I’ve been in that same position myself a few times and hate it everytime 😢, as it happens I’d didn’t know what GSD stood for until you mentioned it. I have a 1250 GS Triple Black also covered in the 719 kit and only enough I also have a Motorhome, keep up the good work.
So sorry for your loss Paul.❤
I assume by the shapes you were throwing the Packtalk is working well en-route
Sorry to hear about your lovely dog, or as I say about mine my best mate.
I stopped watching the video at the point where you found out about your dog dying. Really, really sorry to hear that. Dog's are incredibly precious, only a dog lover could understand. You have my sympathy.
May I ask your mirrors, brand, type?
Between 20:25 and 22:15 this is an infamous lie, please do some research into the true past, not the lies of THEIR Hi"Stories"…
Awesome video! As always. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. She was so beautiful. Too soon. I can empathize going through this recently. It's got to be be tough. Best!
I thought that I would watch the first five minutes before going to bed as I need to get up early tomorrow. Why am I getting up early? Because tomorrow I’m riding over to Les Sables d’Olonne! I’m going over to look at the Vendée Globe Round the World yachts before they start their race on Sunday. What a coincidence. I was in La Rochelle lat Friday. 🙂🙂
