I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again….Steve you are the best. Informative, educational and entertaining and so professionally produced and edited. ( I think you worked in the film or TV industry ) Your enthusiasm for biking and touring shine through your vlogs. Absolute pleasure to watch. The other boys in your crew are good too, but you’re the boss. Keep the videos coming, cheers John 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

As Tojjer29 said, great to see so much of what we did last summer. You certainly had better weather, even though we didn't do too badly on that front. Those Victorians certainly knew how to build things to last - the Culloden viaduct is impressive. We were there in the evening and the pink-hued stone really stood out. Also, I have a photo on the wall I took of that exact view from Struie Hill - wish mine had the blue skies and water that yours did! Nicely done Steve, thank you 👍

We cycled up The Struie the same way as you rode. I can confirm it's as steep as you thought it was. Great experience all the same. That Culloden Viaduct is still in use today. Great footage.

@@greywolf9292 I doubt it will be any time this year Mike. I dropped the bike again yesterday. I put a new foot extender on the side stand, and it seems to make the bike stand up more. It was on its side stand yesterday and went beyond the balance point while I was cleaning the exhaust can. I just couldn't hold it cos of my weak arm, and over she went. Luckily the engine guards took the brunt, the right one is scraped and the right mirror case is scratched too. No other damage luckily. In hindsight, I shouldn't have tried to stop it, lucky it didn't put the shoulder recovery back.

What a cracking ride and video Steve. Completely understand why the other lads decided to take a 'day off' after the long ride the day before, and the long ride home looming, but I think if I'd woke to such a beautiful morning, with a round trip of 150 miles predicted I'd have changed my plans 🙂 I bet when they see the video they'd have wished they had. Stunning drone footage and photography. I get on a proper 'downer' when it's time to head home, whether it's on the bike, or a more conventional holiday. Woud you say when you went (May?) is the best time to visit Scotland? Or was it the only time you could all arrange?

You missed fort George near Nairn, very impressive, the greatest cannon age fort in the UK. Built after the battle of Culloden, to ensure there wouldn't be anymore Jacobite rebellions. It cost the full GDP of Scotland for one full year to build. Commissiined by king George the second.

The buildings a the Falls of Shin are relatively new. Last time we went the original buildings had to be demolished because of fire damage. The restaurant was owned by Harrods. Don't know if it still is. I got eaten alive by Midges first time I ever went! Decided to go on one of the walks eating ice cream. What an idiot! Lol!

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again….Steve you are the best. Informative, educational and entertaining and so professionally produced and edited. ( I think you worked in the film or TV industry ) Your enthusiasm for biking and touring shine through your vlogs. Absolute pleasure to watch. The other boys in your crew are good too, but you’re the boss. Keep the videos coming, cheers John 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
