Trip looked great, look forward to future adventures

[@matjucable]

Hi Peter, thank you. Glad you liked it! First two parts of the Highland Adventure (it was the next trip after Skye) are on as well, if you want to have a look. I'm still working on parts 3 and 4 but they are coming soon! Thanks again 👍🏻

Holy shit what stunning scenery you have in Scotland. I need to go. 100%

[@matjucable]

Cheers buddy, yes, it's absolutely awesome up north 👍... weather can be a bit interchangeable but the scenery makes up for it! You'll love it mate, just pack your waterproofs!!

Nice motorcycle ride, it all seems so familiar to me. Yes The Green Welly, the famous stopping point. Thank you for taking me to Skye this year. I will not get there this year due to the covid measures. Many fun rides.

[@matjucable]

Yes, it's not really a trip up north if you don't stop at the green welly! 🤣🤣... I'm glad you liked the video. Things are slowly going back to normal, so never say never. Camping on Skye is an issue still but you can get a hotel/b&b... cheers buddy, ride safe!

Thanks for bringing back some fabulous memories of my motorcycle trip to Skye in 2013 with my Brother, who is sadly no longer with us . I do remember our crossing looked a little more rocking and rolling than what you guys had !! Looking forward to watching the the rest of the tour 👍👍

[@matjucable]

I'm sorry about your brother, glad you liked the video and that it brought some nice memories for you though. It was a bit choppy actually, must be the image stabilisation that made it look a lot more steady than it was! Cheers mate, it'll take me a few days again but more coming soon! 👍🏻

A nice video. Like it a lot. You are having a lot of fun. You have the same hairstyle as me! :-)

[@matjucable]

Thanks Oli, glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it was great fun. Next year you need to meet Andy! 🤣 yup, bald is beautiful!

[@darrenmcallister1307]

Another great video, well since our last exchange of comments I have now bought a v strom 1000 xt and absolutely love it! So thank you for your last words of encouragement! Opted for the 1000 only because it came up at more less same price as 650......

[@matjucable]

Thank you, I'm glad you like it! And well done, that's great news! I knew you'd enjoy it! Sound like a really good deal! Are you on Suzuki Vstrom Owners UK page yet? If not, I'd recommend joining it! Cheers buddy!

[@darrenmcallister1307]

@@matjucable Now itching to do a road trip lol..... I am on the V strom owners uk page, have not announced I have a yellow bike yet!! Lol.... When I do I shall wait for the banter.....

[@matjucable]

@@darrenmcallister1307 do a road trip then! That's what these bikes are made for! Not much of the summer left so you need to hurry up but do it, definitely! Yellow is a good colour, it was between yellow and black for me. They had black in stock, ready to go, which made my decision easier! Mind, it's just banter on the page!

[@darrenmcallister1307]

@@matjucable I think the page is great. May do a little trip end of September! Cheers m8!

Thought the wind had blew your beard off 😆 🤣

[@matjucable]

🤣🤣 yes, had to come off temporarily but definitely growing it back now! Wish I had it in that wind actually, keeps your face warm!

[@johngriffin618]

man everytime i see one of your videos you make me want to take my '19 strom out for a joyride.

[@matjucable]

Just do it! That's what Stroms are made for! 🤣👍🏻 I can't wait to go again!

[@scottyaustria]

covid-hairstyle.. 😁🤤

[@matjucable]

Getting fitted with a PPE mask at work and had to shave it... 😭😭. Growing it back soon though. Feel naked without it! 🤣
