Hello. Nice to see from your trips again. Looking forward to taking out V-strom again. Today we Have minus 3 degrees, snow and wind after 4 weeks with minus 10-18 degrees.

Hi again! Yes, me too. Weather has been decent last couple of days but we're still restricted in terms of travelling. Hoping by the end of April we'll be allowed to go a bit further than just work and shopping...

Splendid views & drone shots! Sunny days makes it even better. Can't wait to go for a ride! *T4S*

[@matjucable]

Thank you! We were really lucky with the weather! I have since bought my own drone, just waiting for the covid restrictions to end and better weather to use it properly! How are you guys?

[@Sum4Seb]

@@matjucable Doing good, trying to stay active and waiting out the winter. Just got another foot of snow... so we're doing maintenance on the bikes in the meantime. Stay safe

Amazing scenery and great video! I`ve planed to ride in the Highlands in may, but it looks like it won`t be possible yet... Which month would you recommend for Scotland, july or september? Can`t wait to see all these beautiful landscapes... Greetings from Switzerland, ride safe!

[@matjucable]

Hi Lidia, thank you. I'm glad you liked it. I'm looking to visit Switzerland myself again on my bike but doubt it'll be possible this year. Fingers crossed though! As for Scotland, July is slightly warmer but its the height of the midge season. If you're planning to camp, keep that in mind as it can be pretty horrendous and frankly unbearable. They die off/hibernate towards the end of September but it can get pretty cold at night up north (as seen on the video, tent iced over in the morning, very cold night)... you're never guaranteed good weather here, its Scotland. Rains a lot but equally, you might be lucky like we were in September, 4 day tour without a single drop of rain and beautiful, warm days (just very cold nights) ...

Damn I missed this one. You made this beautiful again! In Belgium we are not allowed to leave the country, but we were allowed to move freely provided the covid rules. That's why i made a day trip last week even though it was -6 ° C.

[@matjucable]

Hi! Only just posted it the other day, so you haven't missed it. I've been busy otherwise and didn't have time to edit the rest of the videos from that trip but hopefully things will start moving soon. We're locked down as well, no travel allowed and the weather has been so bad, I actually haven't been on a bike in over 4 months. Fingers crossed they'll let us out soon. I've actuslly bought my own drone for bike trips, which I haven't been able to use yet. Fingers crossed by summer, it'll all relatively go back to normal...

[@falchiherve2024]

i m sorry but where is this?

[@matjucable]

Hi there, it's Scotland. Exact route and stops in the description below the video (and in video captions) so you can find it on a map 👍😀👍

[@scottyaustria]

beautiful as always! 😍😍 2 questions: does kev wear his bobble hat under the helmet and was there a gas station after breakfast? 😁😂🤣🤘💪

[@matjucable]

Hi Keith, how are you! There was indeed, just round the corner actually. Got myself a fridge magnet as well as fuel there! Haha, Kevin and his Bobble hat, right enough, hardly ever see him without it!
