I wanted to share a little update with everyone who’s followed my page over the years—and to those just joining me on this creative journey.

Creativity is still very much at the heart of what I do—photography and videography aren’t going anywhere—but recently I’ve found myself going down the YouTube rabbit hole… and loving it. Life has taken a slightly different direction, and a lot of it now happens on two wheels.

Since making that shift and posting around a dozen videos, I’m really pleased to say I’ve now become monetised on YouTube. The channel focuses on motorcycle adventures, photography, and a bit of ā€œlater lifeā€ perspective along the way.

I don’t want to leave this page behind, as I genuinely appreciate all the support I’ve had here over the years. If you’ve followed my journey so far—thank you, it really means a lot. I’ll still share photography from time to time, and I’ve got quite a few shoots from the past year that I need to catch up on and post.

The main reason for this update is that I’ll be changing the page name to reflect this new direction.

My YouTube channel is Sandi on a Mission:
Two wheels.
One mission.
Keep riding.

Rather than splitting things across multiple pages, I’m bringing it all together here. I hope those of you who enjoy this kind of content will stick with me for the ride.

Photography will still be part of the journey too.

Thanks again for all your support.

Should I stay or should I go? Looking for inspiration to carry on with this lark!

This is what I get up to!

šŸ‘‹ Welcome to my page!
I thought I would start off by introducing myself ;

I’m Sandi a.k.a. Sandi on a mission

Just a normal woman in her sixties who rides motorcycles , I came back to biking in 2017 after a 35 year break and since then, I’ve owned 8 different bikes and I currently have two.

At the end of 2025 I finally got round to posting properly on my YouTube channel to share my rides and adventures—big and small—in hopes of connecting with others and showing that you really need to live your life for yourself and you’re never to old to do something you love.

I’ve been with my husband, Campbell for over 40 years and he fully supports what I do even if he does laugh and shake his head sometimes.

The videos and images you’ll see here are short and purely for entertainment.
If you’d like to follow along more closely, feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel, (link in comments ) where I try to post regularly.

🚲 Current bikes:
• Triumph Tiger 800 XRT
• Harley-Davidson Electra Glide

This page is meant to be fun and a platform to connect. Please be kind.

Feel free to ask me anything in the comments.

I hope you’re all settling into this crazy few days of Christmas and I hope you have the most amazing time.
Thank you to every one of you that has visited my studio.
I thought you may like to see what I got up to a few days ago , it was great fun waving to people on the streets from a soangly lit up mini announcing the arrival of Santa Claus on a Honda Goldwing following closely behind … I’ll let the video tell the story here ;

šŸŽ… Santa Run 2025 – Santa on a motorbike! Normanton, West Yorkshire šŸŽ…I had the privilege of co-piloting the lead car, a stunning mini with lots of Christma...

This was so cute! Especially as my husband didn’t realise it was chasing him 🤣

I want to say a huge thank you to all my amazing clients — it’s been such a joy capturing your memories and milestones.

I’m not hanging up my camera completely! I’ll still be creating through personal projects and exploring new directions in photography.

Thank you again for all your support over the years ā¤ļø
