This one’s a proper Friday Mutter on the Royal Enfield Bear 650 — the sort of ride where I’m not trying to be clever, I’m just having a natter and letting the miles do the talking. I’m out on the Bear, chewing over import duty and what it means in the real world, while still keeping it grounded in the everyday stuff we all end up chatting about when we’re on two wheels. It’s that mix of bikes, life, and whatever’s popped into my head that week. And yes, it takes a turn into the daft as well — aliens get a mention, there’s a train in the mix, and I don’t forget a genuinely marvellous key ring. If you like the no-nonsense, year-round riding vibe — a Yorkshireman in Suffolk, out in all weathers — this is exactly that. It’s not a spec-sheet lecture; it’s me on the Bear 650, muttering through the week’s thoughts, with a bit of humour and a bit of reality, like a bike-night chat that just happens to be filmed.
