5 days Bike Packing in Argyll, Scotland

[@WildAboutArgyll]

WOW! We love how much you loved exploring Argyll - you really have shown exactly why it's called Scotland's Adventure Coast! You are an inspiration! Love it!

[@craig3401]

Stunning scenery mixed with a sprinkling of bonkers lol 😂🤣 loved it

[@FitforAdventure]

Love this comment - I’ll send you a signed copy of Dancing in the Midge Shite as a thanks 😅

Sarah you are such a joy

well that's brightened up my day, another film from Sarah, always worth the wait.

Great video! You're quickly becoming one of my favourites on KZbin alongside Murray's Scotland's Mountains (that would be an awesome colab) Keep doing what you're doing and don't change a thing, just brilliant!

[@Rob-zv1oz]

So nice to see and hear you again Sarah. With everything that’s going on in this crazy ass world just now, you are much needed medication and meditation. Peace, love, and respect to you young lady 🙏

Hi Sarah great to c you again and great zany video as usual

[@FitforAdventure]

Haha thanks butt 🙌🏻

[@yvonnebailey9973]

Great video. Beautiful sunset when out on your paddle board. Thank you for sharing. Take care.

[@krisatkins840]

so true what you say regarding swim coaching and what you learn. I learnt to swim as a child but also got additional coaching as an adult and realised what I was doing before was just moving in the water.

[@Davidsdigitalmemories]

Wow.... what's views. Fabulous trip and loved those castles.

[@gavingrimsey8602]

Wonderful Sarah love it as always your still nuts what makes it so good. Take care and keep them coming

Absolutely brilliantly presented, so nice to someone genuinely so enthusiastic! Well done

[@howardmcknight9773]

The scenery and sunsets were stunning Sarah and you showed it off brilliantly.

[@FitforAdventure]

Weren’t they!!! Possibly the longest run of sun in Scotland ever, how lucky was I 😍 Thank you for watching 🙌🏻

[@stevesdaysoff2759]

Great video. I have just spent three weeks on holiday in that area as I do most years. I really enjoyed watching your bike tour in Argyll as its my favourite area the the UK. I spent a lot of my time visiting the small islands around Oban including Lismore in my small inflatable boat. Its great seeing Oban and Lismore on a bike tour. Thank you. really enjoyed watching your channel, well done. Atb Steve 👍

[@ianscott947]

All clear water looks amazing when the Bristol Channel is your local splishy splashy.

[@FitforAdventure]

😂😂 it’s so true! Bought goggles to swim - don’t know why I bothered, can’t see shit. Actually I can see shit, that’s the problem 😅

It’s so fun! Go at sunset - it’s mega 🙌🏻

[@JoshMainka]

I've been waiting for this to drop. Inspired by my favourite mad Welsh woman I'm starting a five day trek from Oban to the Cairngorms on Friday. If I get bitten by midges I know who to blame 😱

[@FitforAdventure]

I’ve instructed them to be extra ferocious and itchy to give you the full experience - you’re welcome 😅 Have a mint time mate!! I’d love to see your route for this and to hear how it goes 🙌🏻

[@JoshMainka]

@@FitforAdventure I was midge lunch in County Kerry this weekend hiking up Carrauntoohil so I'm hoping I've built up some immunity😊

[@Tubroos_Bz]

I always intended to do that the other way around when I lived in Braemar but somehow it never happened... It looked like an excellent walk... One day maybe!

Loved this so much. We love watching your videos for inspiration and laughs. The first clip had us 🤣♥️

[@derekputnam8200]

You make our day Sarah whenever you post a new video. I have cycle toured Scotland for many years and I too love Argyle and Bute. Visited many of the places you’ve included here r you must visit Lochranza, my favourite stop in argyle, Jura, my second favourite and lastly, Colonsay and Oronsay. Live the dream Sarah😘

[@white_rose_alex]

Yay, you're back! I followed your journey on Instagram but it's been great to see this video version too. Scotland stole my heart years ago, it's one of my favourite places ever. This video has made me want to go back again very soon. Thanks for sharing. x

[@FitforAdventure]

Yessss, thank you for watching, hope you get back up there for a fix soon! (I’m assuming it’s ‘up’ for you too, Scotland’s ‘up’ for everyone unless you live in Iceland though right? 😅)

[@georgemacdonald8899]

Really cool to see bike adventuring in my old back yard(used to live in Argyll), thanks!!! I have ridden over 20k miles by bike now and find the best way to reduce punctures are tubes and kevlar tire liners. Here in the SF bay area we have a plant that sheds thorns, the impale themselves on your tires by some kind of magical force, sticking right through and wounding the tube. The tire liner keeps them at bay, also works good for glass/nails/... If you ever make it over to the west coast USA, you should do the PCT trail and then bike back from Vancouver to San Diego along the coast. Take in the side trips to Kings Canyon/Sequoya, Yosemite Valley, Whitney, Crater Lake, Mt. Rainier,... Could have a really nice year, or 2 half year trips. If you do, let us know I may be able to help provision/supply and gear ya up...

[@276tracey]

Cracking vid.... I love the scenery and crystal clear waters... Everything was just brilliant...you just keep getting better and better x

[@kimberlym4289]

So funny and great video. I loved dancing in the midgeshite, and oh have I pressed record? can you hear bagpipes? So thanks for sharing your adventures it was a good way to spend the last hour watching this.

[@thebikepackingadventurer]

Great looking trip. The sonder Camino is a great bike. I have the Planet X tempest Ti, but I would’ve bought the Camino if there was stock. I am off next week on a 5 day bikecamping trip around Normandy next week so this just got me more excited

[@robertdonaldson6584]

I went to Ecole Nouvelle, Lausanne Switzerland in the 1960's and spent many hours at Chateau de Chillon playing/exploring.

Great video . Really enjoyed it . Have you thought about snorkeling on your swims . Amazing how well some of the fish are camouflaged from the surface and you see a lot more .

10:31 Those delicate, almost poetic, waves👌

[@FitforAdventure]

Incredible aren’t they! 😍😍

[@GOBBYBOY333]

Fantastic video Sarah, I just love your enthusiasm. The first castle you visited with the pigeon poo on the stairs, where you said there a hole down there, well that was a long drop. it would have had a timber capping on it with a hole large enough for you to sit and do your business on, basically a medieval WC. I can't wait for the next adventure, thanks for taking us along ATB Big Dave Scotland

[@alanhunter2051]

Sarah you are mad silly amazing and beautiful all jumbled together. You are true to your heart and doing what you love. Your rollercoaster life has many ups and downs. Take care x

[@kevwright2002]

Thanks Sarah, the effort you put into these videos is mind blowing. What a great place Scotland is.

Thank you Kev! That’s why I’m such a rogue and sporadic uploader 😂 Very pleased when people enjoy them though. Thanks dude 🙌🏻

[@sparkysystem]

A really great inspiring video. Yet again. So many thanks for sharing.

Amazing shots I love your sense of adventure out there. I was in Oban a few years ago and loved my Motorcycle tour. I think my next is Oban and some islands. Keep at it it good for the bones.

Great video and fantastic views Sarah. I’m also hopeless at front crawl. My breaths tend to be 50/50 water to air mix. Not a good combination. Keep up the excellent content.

love watching your trips when im stuck in the office in the Midlands wishing away the hours, so I can get back to North Wales Mountains and coastline. Next water jump lets see a front flip bab

[@pakleader4]

Wow you can place your bike on the train. That’s different than here in the state’s. The castle yes I have seen the film. Good your soooooooooo pretty and beautiful for doing this for me. Gotta watch the rest of the video. Will edit as I watch!!!😍 oh and because of you I discovered Cospe and very beautiful song. But looking at you. I see a spirit animated from the area your at. And you really are very beautiful. Lach abot and those hills are incredible good the woodlands is incredible I thought they didn’t have a woodland area it’s magnificent with you there!!!!! So the burial sites are found. Damn. Beautiful 😻I can’t understand why I’m drawn to to my genetic homeland being Scottish and Irish. I didn’t learn about this until I was 13 years old. So to the isle of GiGha next lead on my lady!!!!ok I will stop. But the sits and views are no good without you being present. I fell in love with you and your adventures. I could never see the things your share with us. AGAIN thank you my lady and princess 👑 SEMPER FI

You sure they’re not humpless camels? Special Scottish ones 😅

[@GusExplores]

Brilliant video as always. You need to watch your paddle boarding off the coast in that area, that's where the massive whirlpool is and the ocean turns into a water fall between a couple of the islands. Worth a visit but do it in a powerful boat. I grew up near Kilmartin and used to love playing in Carnasserie Castle and around the cairns, I kinda feel you might have seen more of Argyll than me now though 🤣 that camp spot before day 5 on Gighia was amazing just wish you could guarantee the clear skies you got. Cheers for sharing this one

Good to see you back on the small screen Sarah. Cracking trip! I know there's loads of tubeless sealants out there, I tried Stan's normal stuff - which didn't work for me. However, I found the Silca Sealant very good (the floaty bits are larger). It does come with it's own problem though, as you have to pull the tyre off the bead and pour it into the tyre (it blocks the valve if you try to put it in through the valve). I think the Stans Race Formula is similar. Good luck.

Loved watching this. I’ve spent a lot of time kayaking the Inner Hebrides, there’s few places as beautiful when the weather is nice. Also that pub that overlooks the quarry at Easdale (I can’t spell the other name) is a beautiful location for a mid trip coffee and cake before heading round to the Atlantic bridge. Also the sunsets over the islands on a clear sky are unreal, the sea looks like it’s on fire

Pause the video at 15:50 Quarry jumps... all 5.2 until the very last one nailed it 6.0 😅 Kudos, the b-roll for that was tiring I bet . right.. unpause video. Corking video as always - great advert for the area and done in your own unique style. atb Alan from Ebbw
