Great points, I forgot to mention I use sunscreen on exposed skin since you are sitting in nature’s tanning salon.

I use a full face modular helmet as it deals with the wind the best, but the brooklands wind screen I have does a good job diverting the wind....

+1 on the ear plugs.... huh???

Here is a photo of the camera mount. I will trim off the excess tape I put on to keep from marring the roll hoops.

It is a fairly universal mount that is used on GoPro and this Insta360-X One. I took off the mounting bolt and ring to just use the 1/4-20 threaded bolt up inside the mount.

I can still turn around in the seat to turn on off the camera, although if you want to fiddle with a phone you can do it from the iPhone once power is on. Jut hit record or stop record on the phone APP.

Herefordshire is a beautiful county with fantastic Morgan backroads not only home to the original Morgan at Stoke Lacey but on the way to Wales too. The history in this county is immense, the people lovely and the countryside unspoiled. Most people in the UK don't even know it exists which is great, I was based in Hereford during my military days and lived in a small hamlet called Broxwood before moving to the US. Strongly recommend staying at Lowe Farm B&B in Pembridge, an award winning establishment run by Juliet and Clive. When you call them say Bruce from the US sent you!!

I should have added the following to my previous comment.

I just completed Morgan's Over America VII in my +8 which was 7600 miles in 49 days. We averaged around 200 - 210 miles on driving days with coffee, lunch and sightseeing stops, leaving around 8.30am and arriving at hotels around 4.30pm. The drive was 85% on back roads only going on interstates when absolutely necessary, the longest drive was close to 300 miles and that was enough by the end of the day. This was in the +8 so the M3W would be even more tiring and British back roads are more difficult in themselves.

Here is a link to some pictures:

Furthest distance in one day.

Zebrugge to Grindelwald in 2015. 543 miles with one 10 minute fuel stop.

No aches, pains or stiffness.

The M3W driving position must suit me.

You Sir deserve a medal I've done a 350 miler in the Plus 8 with no discomfort but that is a huge mileage in an M3W notworthy

Your lower half must be super human - or bionic! An hour and a half is the most I can manage before my bum goes completely numb!
