Motorcycle Road Trips - Scottish Islands - Part Eleven

Heading for the harbour town of Mallaig on the Scottish mainland, the day steadily becomes warmer and warmer. Time to pull over for a swig of water, and to change into my summer riding kit.
Later and after passing yet more white sandy beaches, I stumble by chance upon a charming campsite to spend the night . . .

Morning Kevin. Thanks for the "escape" that we find whilst watching the beautiful scenery. I would like to add, regarding wind noise on your microphone. We are chuffed that we get to listen to the noises that your hearing, wind, bird song and the sound of your bike. When your on Aslan, there is nothing better than her lovely, comforting and now familiar sound. The biggest plus is your commentary and humour. I guess what I'm saying is, please don't ever get drawn into adding music over the video. All of the above is why we always look forward to your video. We have switched off from others as soon as it starts. Thanks again Kevin, all the best, Floss and Jan.

Your commment about the smell of engine oil reminded of when I raced superkarts in the late1960s and early 1970s. We always used Castrol "R" and it had the most beautiful smell. Loved that smell so much I would add a little to my car petrol just to get the occasional wift.

Kevin, we adore Scotland, just returned from Braemar on this last visit. We’ve covered Scotland, but not the islands so you’ve given us some ideas for our next visit. It really is the most wonderful place. Takes your breath away. Cheers & thanks. Oh… love the music on your intro, too.

[@CountryHouseGent]

The Scottish Islands are highly recommended, and each one is utterly unique.

[@richardhyatt-beekeeping]

Kevin, I live in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina, USA. This area of the Appalachians, the Blue Ridge Mountains, are known for the Scottish settlers who settled here as it reminded them of Scotland. We actually have a Scottish Museum nearby. The mountains here reach 5,000 to 6,000 feet high. Those mountains you are riding through look about the same, maybe. About 1,500 miles west of here, the Rocky Mountains reach well over 10,000 feet high! Some at least 14,000 feet. Our mountains here in the Blue Ridge are covered with trees everywhere. There is not near as much cleared farmland. The mountains are too steep and the valleys narrow. A little different than what I am seeing in your travels. And, we are 350 miles from the beach!

[@CountryHouseGent]

Sounds magical Richard. I must visit the USA, one day. 🙂

Well, I thought another channel had stolen your thunder when, on Weds, The Scottish Isle (population 2) put out a road trip of the Lady of the Isle returning from Stirling to their place, the Isle of Shona, which you passed in this episode. No worries, she came back via the Corran ferry to Salen and then showed practically nothing of the final stretch, which you filmed. So, your channel still reigns supreme, and what a supremely beautiful stretch it was.

[@rogerr1296]

@@CountryHouseGent Not sure which is worse, speed cameras or having actual patrol cars all over. We have our share of speed traps as well, usually in smaller towns where the main revenue for police is traffic citations... a great motivator to find any reason to pull you over... 🙄. Although it is a problem over here, with YT and the internet in general, it can make it seem as if it's much worse than it really is.

[@Skyemansthoughts]

The police generally stay close towns where there is a police station. I.e you can get patrol cars from Tyndrum all the way to Fort william on A82. Either with speed gun or just patrolling. The one to watch for is the unmarked police bikes and cars , especially on stretches where there is a lot of overtaking, like the approach into Glencoe. The B roads see a lot less police activity.

My road atlas spells its placenames in English, which means they are pronounceable - Kinlochmoidart.

The anonymous railway you were latterly riding alongside stars in the Harry Potter movies.
