As a 60 year old cyclist who lives In Edinburgh and aspires to do the NC500, your videos are by far the most inspirational I’ve watched that make me want to get off my backside and on to these roads. Great film and a great trip. Keep doing these.

Great vlog , unlucky with the weather , it reminds me of my LETJO’G in 1997 6 day challenge, just two of us riding, doing it and kipping in a transit van for ten days , 4 us in van , 3 road bikes and luggage , pick the best week to go May / June bank holiday weekend , and I’m quite proud of my achievement 150 miles a day (Terry Cole / LRTCC) pity I never had Strava in the 90’s 👍🚴🏿💪🍺🍰

In Wick, apart from Tesco, airport and bike shop, you have also past the shortest street in the world, called Ebenezer Place (Mackays Hotel you can see it at 6:20 time stamp of your video). It's just next to the roundabout after the bridge. Now you wish you have known that and stop to make pictures :P.
