Touring the Scottish Western Isles by BMW R1200GS | Episode 3 | From Mull to Skye

[@pastie3131]

That incident with the muppet truck driver made me jump! Well done hanging on to the front end. We need you fit and well to make these fantastic vids Mr Flyer!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Pastie appreciated!

[@PCERules]

That's such a great comment - touring on your own is great, mates are great but there's such a thrill doing things on your own.

[@FooWoowoo]

Solo travel is the way to go. Make new friends as you stop, or whatever. I'm loving this!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I agree, I met some great folks on this trip...,

[@BN1960]

Little tip on hotel cancellations; ring the hotel and don't cancel the room but move it (the booking, not the room - that's quite hard work and needs more planning...). Move it by say a fortnight, then a few days later ring or go online (as the move often updates your online booking too) and cancel it well within your allowed period. Happy days. This all assumes you can move the date without penalty of course which is why ringing the hotel is better since they're normally more flexible than a booking system.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

What a brilliant idea! Thanks for that....

[@robster631]

Absolutely great series TMF just loving it. The ringpiece in the truck needs locking up..... Thanks for the great entertainment.

[@paulstredwick]

It makes my blood boil that councils spend our money on road dressing that can literally kill us. In the age of the health & safety nanny state too. Loving this series, as always. The dronage is definitely worth the effort and getting better as you go. Thanks.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Paul.....

[@stevebolton8471]

It's very wasteful of grit too.. Apparently roads do need the occasional layer of grit between other layers

[@alanbeniston1304]

Understand how you complain about the loose chippings on the road.! But did I here you say it says 10 mph. But I'm doing about 30! Nearly lost it there. This stuff is super slippery. Slow down then. Sorry had to say

[@robcbr650]

Couple of big moments there TMF! You did well to hang onto her for sure. Yet another good tour series, thanks.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Rob!

[@johnstonstewart2298]

Beautiful, know most of these roads. That incident was a wee bit sphincter clenching though!!!

[@santoshphatak7967]

Stunning views ! Thank you so much for showing such a beautiful place !!! 👍👍👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Much more to come - stay tuned!

[@nicholasknibbs8162]

Loving the tour as always Mr TMF. The droneage is superb and I think the music is just the ticket for a moody atmosphere. Love it!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you Nicholas!

[@Banditmanuk]

Enjoyable vid, love Scotland. Made me and the Mrs smile when we heard the music to the drone, exactly the same bit of music we used trying out our drone over Monsal Head Derbyshire a while back.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Another fantastic episode as always. I think it's great you are doing these trips solo, it's very inspiring. I can imagine getting away from it all with just your bike and the open road pleasing yourself is extremely appealing to me.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

It works for me (but then I do live with three females.....)

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

TheMissendenFlyer I guess you'll be planning your next one pretty soon then ;)

[@scottmitchell6371]

Beautiful ❤. And a near miss, lost count of the number of those I've had in my 40 years of riding and driving skill plays a part but I think in the end it's mostly luck as well. So hope your luck and skill hold and may the odds be ever in your favor brother, as they say . 👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Scott...I've had a couple of near misses of late (not all on the bike!).....

[@ryanharriss7950]

Oh boy, life flash before your eyes there!

[@faz5824]

Liking the tour of Scotland. Love the place. Was so relaxed watching this video I actually nodded off.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I know how you feel, you should have tried editing this!!!! ZZZzzzz

[@faz5824]

TheMissendenFlyer great vids tho mate. Not a biker myself but love all your touring vids.

[@thetravellingtriumph920]

Did NC500 last year including Skye. Seems around every corner is a wow moment. Epic. And I know what you mean about solo travelling. You can plan your own schedule with no compromises.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad it's not just me....

[@tonyjshaw]

Fantastic video. Loving all the video footage and the drone shots - keep 'em coming!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Will do - lots more to come Tony!

[@bobdrakeford5731]

The Drone videos show so much more. A complete different perspective from the ground vision. Thoroughly enjoying your trip from my lounge chair in Australia. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us Viewers 👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you're enjoying it all the way under there Robert - cheers!

[@davidfishbough6170]

Hello TMF, excellent views and awesome drone shots. Looking forward to the next section of your trip. Thanks for sharing the adventure with us!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

You’re very welcome David, glad you enjoyed it.....stay tuned!

[@sheilaholmes3793]

Only just discovered your videos and as lovers of Scotland have thoroughly enjoyed them. We really like your commentaries too.We have now subscribed and look forward to finding more of your videos

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Welcome along!

[@SDTProductionltd]

I did Skye last summer for the weekend but after watching these videos I must get myself over to the other islands as well at some point. Thanks for another great bunch of videos.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks for watching!

[@Sion_Jones]

Another cracking episode. As a new GS owner today, I had a great first day on her, then settled down this evening with a whiskey to watch episode 3. Doesn't get much better than that. Totally understand why you like to tour solo. If you ever do some group tours, would be great to follow at whatever pace you chose with as many photo and drone stops as needed.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Congratulations Sion - and welcome to the GS club.....prepare for the hate!! :0)

[@Sion_Jones]

TheMissendenFlyer bring it on 😂. I've already noticed a lot less nods from fellow bikers.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Tell me about it!

[@RutgerSmets]

I must say your videos are way more entertaining than the World Cup!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

World what???

[@kyotosal]

Wow, great scenery Sir, thank you. I can't be in Scotland anytime soon so I will just do second best and have a bit of Scotch!!!

[@robcutter9792]

What a cool adventure. Thanks for posting sir.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks for watching Rob - more to come...stay tuned!

[@martybartfast]

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Thanks for letting me tour vicariously. 😊 🏍️

[@noelsatterley2996]

Drone footage is really good. Beautiful islands. 👏👏👏👏

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Noel....

[@SteveInskip]

Hello MrF. You were right...just keeps getting better. Looking forward to next week so cheers bud; have a good one!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

You too Steve....

[@robertkemp429]

Trust this vid can be a warning to all visitors who have not seen this type of road dressing which is common in rural Scotland. It's truly "orrid" to ride on and deserves the greatest respect regardless of the bike you are on. Great video as usual Mr Flyer

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Robert - all the best...

[@motoventure_6938]

Another top video in the series TMF. You held your self together with the lorry incident mate. I think I would of been shouting every expletive known to man!! Look forward to next Fridays episode.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks MV - stay tuned, this one gets better!!

[@BlueMarbleRider]

TMF - you were very lucky. Cripes. Excellent control under duress. Damn near spilled my beer watching that! BF13 GNZ: Karma will return the favour. Loose chippings - it's like riding dirt - remember what you learned in Spain - stand on yer pegs...Lovely vid. Thanks.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I didn't have time to think about standing up - I was focused on just staying on!! Thanks for watching and thanks for the kind words - all the best - TMF

[@thomasanderson4127]

Brilliant another great video,drone was excellent,music to my ears suited the drone shots.👏

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you liked it Thomas - thanks for watching....

[@theexploringphotographer]

Awesome! Love touring Scotland, it helps that I live outside Edinburgh. I did the Outer Hebrides this year. Oban > Barra > South Usit > North Uist > Lewis & Harris and then NC500 west to east. Awesome trip. Can't beat Scotland for scenery, quiet roads and grippy tarmac. If you do the Outer Hebrides you need to book it in January, we tried 3 years in a row to get booking but left it to late, eventually we did it 6 months ahead which worked out. Just be careful of spray and chip resurfacing, the idiotic councils are trying to save money but putting out lives at risk.

[@micksmith1984]

Another great video Sir, certainly looks a beautiful part of the country.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes it is and it just gets better Mick - stay tuned for the next one on Friday!

[@tonytrevino3204]

TMF that was a close call ! You held it together. The drone footage looks great. I am loving the touring vlogs.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you like 'em, Tony - stay tuned!

[@2wheelsrbest327]

Thanks TMF how you do it I do not know ! , You make even riding a long straight road so interesting.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Ted - really pleased you think so :0)

[@springy-2112]

Hey buddy glad you're still with us (truck permitting!) Now you have got the new tyres on its too late to say get some proper dual sport tyres Mine work great in gravel and on tarmac...and of course 10mph is probably enough on that loose stuff... Any how i'm not here to poo poo you (that just sounds wrong) ...its a lovely series of videos thank you well done and pleadr be careful ! Which i know you are because you made it home to produce the videos....BRAVO..👍👍☮❤

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Springy.....

[@tristramgordon8252]

Excellent! And may I say: "Haste ye back" (in the vernacular)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I'll certainly be back as soon as possible!

[@tojj29]

Enjoying watching these. Keep em coming. Drone stuff is fantastic. Everything looks amazing from up there!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Doesn't it just!

[@jimmyjoe119]

Hi TMF enjoying the trip so far.....lucky one with the truck,he was probably in a hurry to catch the ferry but it is no excuse.For future road trips it might be worth packing a bit of camping gear(tent, sleeping bag and mat)just for such occasions where you can't get anywhere reasonable to stay,never mind all the cooking gear just get breakfast in the nearest cafe,camping when the weather is miserable is not much fun but when the weather is fine there's nothing better.......better than £120 b/b .....what a rip off......looking forward to the next episode......all the best.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Jommyjoe and yes good idea......just extra stuff to carry though!

[@davidboyer9894]

The drone footage, what a great addition to the tour! Just ordered some TMF apparel on Teespring which I will have in time for my tour up to Washington State in July-Yay!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Good man David, you will be the envy of your friends and I hope you've braced yourself for A LOT of female attention.....

[@garyshuttleworth3459]

great stuff as per usual, drone footage stunning and loving the soundtrack suits the views

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Much more to come...as the weather improves....

[@pauld430]

Those gravel roads, and that lorry! Saw it coming, thought you were done for! Great episode! Looking forward to Skye having been there myself! Totally agree about the solo travelling. Done both solo, and with others. Solo is so much simpler decision wise.......but its nice having a beer with mates at the end of the day... Still loving the ‘droneage’!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you for watching and for the kind comments as ever!

[@slg9095]

Been to Arisaig many times, that Road To The Isles is famously beautiful! Loved the drone footage skimming the water, brilliant and only a little nibble from Mr and Mrs Midge 👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Stay tuned, much better droneage to come I promise you!

[@grahaminkpen5436]

At 8.44 mins you passed the wife and I favourite holiday cottage, Loch Sunart and the surrounding area is stunning.

[@02bigkev]

Love the drone shots , the gravel roads are scary. great episode.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Kev - more to come next Friday!

[@cctv5277]

I just love the scenery up there and I’m well overdue a trip. Totally agree, Scotland is one of the most scenic countries. Nice vlog

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks!

[@paulkane2299]

loving this series, well done TMF. As a kid our family holidays were spent driving around there towing a caravan. Would love to go back and do it on a bike. Thank you for the inspiration. I live in New Zealand now, perfect motorcycling country. We have public roads here which are always gravel, no tarmac ever. Road trips always mean gravel at some point. Its impressive seeing riders on completely unsuitable bikes negotiate those roads. Stand up, puts your weight down low. Also its easier to balance on your feet than on your bum :-)

[@petermyles3669]

TMF Yet another superb video, you're videos are fast becoming compelling viewing. That campsite you passed is in a great spot we stayed there a few years ago. I don't want to focus on the bad but you are fast becoming a great ambassador for bikers and biking, I have been riding for over 40 years and regularly do long touring trips, I do not think I would have survived that truck incident, you have a duty to us sensible bikers out there to report that truck driver to his company. I would for one like to see or hear their response. I cannot wait for the next episode, great footage, excellent scenery and first class presentation. Keep doing what you are doing.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

You are very kind Peter, my head is starting to swell....

[@kohrsthomas]

Bless you four BMW ABS and your driving skills. I am on 180Bpm just watching this.

[@AfricaTwin-Stuff]

Loved the drone shots. Well worth the considerable effort. Thanks.

[@LIKWID]

Those loose gravel/chippings for resurfacing are a nightmare, I got caught out twice pretty much the same time you were up on the west coast going to Loch Rannoch, 2 patches right on tight bends, almost had me off twice! They are an absolute nightmare. Also clearly the truck driver was infected with some radioactive material!! Absolutely epic stuff as always, loving the drone shots too :) roll on the next episode.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks LIKWID, really glad you like 'em....the weather just keeps on improving in this one and hence the drone shots do too...

[@tdogzdog4599]

Great series TMF. Wow that was a close call with the truck - felt my butt clench just watching it! Toured the highlands and Isles for the last 3 years and never tire of it. Can be a logistical nightmare trying to get ferries and accommodation to line up as you have found, so I now take a more flexible approach to the itinerary and book hotels where I can and ad lib where I can’t with the insurance policy of a tent for when the prices get silly or no rooms available, although now I’ve turned 50 the old bones object a little more to the canvas option. Keep up the good work.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Tony - will do....

[@iainian]

Lovely, lovely, lovely scenery and no white vans TMF. (We love Pitlochry) Lorry late for the ferry? However no excuse to nearly wipe you out., thankfully Euro 4 ABS and traction control! The loose chipping are like riding on marbles but the new tyres appear to cope well as did you with your skills picked up at Toro Adventures off road riding? Can't imagine doing this sort of journey without GPS and a mobile phone! Looking forward to Ep 4.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks as ever Iain

[@iainian]

Thanks TMF

[@echanos]

Nice vid! Glad you survived that marauding truck. What a nutter. Also enjoy the drone footage, it's mesmerizing and really adds a bonus to the video.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you like it - thanks...

[@JIMWSMITH]

Cracking , another fantastic instalment. I was on the very same ferry only last week👍 drone footage excellent , you certainly have got the hang of getting some beautiful shots 👌 looking forward to the next instalment.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Jim - appreciate the kind comments - TMF

[@shaneweightman]

Great vids , will watch the rest in the series , to the end , glad you’ve shown the inside and prices of hotels , will sure help out with other people’s journeys , and that lorry driver wants locking up , very dangerous move on such roads ,,, cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧

[@marciofilho3222]

Bloody hell. That trucker was a proper maniac. Lucky one...

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yep - one out of the luck bucket and into the experience bucket....

[@tazzzxcsd]

Great video TMF, your drone flying skills are great, love the Scotland for scenery. thanks again.

[@michaelcarroll9195]

Well I was thinking about a return to biking until I saw your near miss with the lorry, probably on his moby. You had no where to go and thank goodness it all ended well. Was 'T' boned by a car 20 years ago and broke my leg badly. By the way what's this about travelling alone, sure I've seen a young blond on your pillion, the real reason why you retire early methinks. Now that would be a good reason to pull on mi leathers again. Keep up the goog work.

[@farmerfishdogg486]

Love the drone footage...really adds to the videos and gives you a better sense of the area,well done Mr Flyer👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you - glad you think it adds to it....was a bit unsure I was over doing it....

[@johngolder5015]

Jesus that Lorry I thought what the bloody hell !! I was there with you.

[@duncanblanchard334]

That truck was pretty frightening, you did a good job of holding the bike steady, I think I may of cursed a little bit more than you did if it had been me. Great roads in Scotland, but not a patch on New Zealand South Island, just incredible. Keep safe and another great video.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Duncan....

[@davidninnis5832]

Another beauty :) The chipping thing is called 'road dressing', they do it a lot down here in Cornwall. They smear some tar on the old road surface and then spread all that loose stuff on top so's the vehicles press the gravel into the tar, it's a cheap way of staving off spending any money on resurfacing. It's godam lethal for bikers and I h8 it. They also don't raise the manholes so after 4 or 5 road dressings they, in effect make the manholes potholes, jack-asses!

[@crooky1811]

Another great video TMF, Love the Hotel info etc on these

[@carlton683]

Absolutely fantastic trip great scenery looking forward to next weeks episode,and that was a close one with truck glad you was safe thanks Tony

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Stay tuned Tony!

[@syncrosimon]

Trucker was trying to get the ferry you just got off, that was his hurry! Not very pleasant, an ABS moment. Lovely video.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you!

[@adriangreen1393]

Totally agree about the oncoming lorry on the loose chippings. But when you came to the next lot, you said you were doing 30 mph when the advisory sign said 10 mph. However, loved the video, you have inspired me to get up there again.

[@daved4094]

Absolutely brilliant series TMF made more interesting for me because I have done most of that route myself. Even changed my mind about the Outer Hebrides.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you like it Dave.....changed your mind from what to what?

[@daved4094]

Changed my mind about getting the ferry over to the outer hebrides because of the ferry times which would have meant staying over night and was going to make it quite expensive. I thought it might have been an option for a day trip. Turns out I would only have been there for an hour or so till the ferry returned to Uig.

[@russelllocke7180]

Can’t wait for the Isle of Skye footage. Was there in April & fell in love with the place. Pity it’s 16,918kms for me to get to again! Impressive footage, both land shots & drone work, cheers sir. My god, that truck incident was a near death experience. Luck was on your side that day. Clear view of his rego plate.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Russell, lots more to come, stay tuned!

[@Gibbo1489]

Heart in my mouth on the gravel! I was up touring Scotland a couple of weeks ago and came across a few spots where they had done the same, thick loose gravel over the whole road, don't know how it can be safe in the height of tourist season. Felt a little two wheel slide as I had to lean over coming down a hill, scared the shit out of me! The car following way too close behind me backed right off afterwards though!

[@derick692]

TMF I've just found both your tour on the 767 route and Western Isles. Absolutely stunning scenery on a motorbike, coming from Glasgow I have done the Islands and West Coast in the metal cage. definitely doing them this year on the motorbike over a 2 week duration. Happy Riding

[@robduine]

Besides watching testrides on different bikes, I also enjoy these vids. Beautiful roads/environments. Hope to visit/drive once on my own bike...

[@JavierPerez-tb4zy]

TMZ Now you are an homologated pilot !!!

[@dirtyhabitz2888]

Yet another great vid TMF! The idiot driving the lorry needs their license taking away before they hurt someone. Looking forward to the next episode 👍

[@nealeclark8282]

Awesome video with great commentary. Reminded me of the North Coast 500 we did early June on our BTW S1000xrs

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I actually think the Western Isles are better than the NC500....thanks for watching - TMF

[@tucker9162]

Excellent video as usual. Lucky that ferry blew it's horn just as you told the man your name!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes, who would have thought!

[@chipm2544]

Greetings Missenden Flyer. Really enjoying your travels & videos. Last month bought my 1st BMW R 1200 GSA. Really liking that bike. 👍🏼 She's a beauty & beast. Looking forward to many great rides. Take care.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Hi Paul - congratulations on the bike and thanks for the kind words!

[@Boxer1250RT]

That Truck Driver...No Comment!

[@garryclark4653]

I am a truck driver, and that was pretty shocking!

[@andygreen2599]

Great video TMF Scotland is one of my very favourite places

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Me too....

[@davidthomas1532]

Another great video. Looking forward to the next one. Stayed in Glenuig on my Scotland trip in May this year. Beautiful place and great roads.

[@IanTed]

Another great video, the dronage helps to give an idea of the scale...I always stop in the passing places for photos, most vehicles can share your space if you see any😀

[@ianlawrie919]

Spending most of my bike time in the Western Scotland bit I can assure you that you are not alone, the lorries here like to see how many of their rear axles they can coat in biker red.

[@mikeamcgee]

Glad you made it through old boy! Great video. Really appreciate your work.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Mike.....and less of the old!

[@mikeamcgee]

Lol sorry. We r like the same age! Hey what drone did you get? Would like to see a vid on that and how you use it/ your thoughts starting out. I just ordered one.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Deets in description - Mavic Air.....

[@alexmorgan3435]

The midges aren't the only things that bite in the Western Isles ......... hotels, BnBs and psycho truck drivers. You should have tried the YHA at Broadford on Skye. Lots of similar accommodation there. I hope you are going to take us up to the Quiraing, past the Old Man of Storr, up to the Trotternish ridge and up over the mountain road from Staffin across to Uig. I camped on the beach near Staffin, midge free. The road up from Portree is fabulous. I told you about this a couple of years back. I had the pleasure of cycling it although the midges weren't a pleasure. Got eaten alive back in Broadford when I stupidly camped at a rip off campsite as I couldn't find anywhere to wild camp. Scenery was stunning especially the Trotternish ridge. Would love to go back walking in the Cuillins but only dressed in a suit of armour or full motorbike gear to protect from the wee beasties. Btw it's only the female that bites. One female midge can bite up to 4,000 times an hour. I got mullered when I was there. Had to raise the white flag in defeat and retreat. Your drone footage is good. You should do more of it. You have a head start as you have a pilot's license. I hope you properly carry out all your pre-flight checks. You need to go higher though.

[@andyg7429]

Very appropriate use of the funnel dubbing, made me smile ;-)

[@dnlgrhm]

All good - the drone footage is amazing, etherial. This is now better than being there myself since I couldn't fly around.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Like it Daniel - more to come!

[@NSteele76]

Wow, that was squeaky bum time for sure. We found lots of roads being resurfaced over the last week, I’d rather have been on my CRF than my VFR haha. Spot on about photo stops, we kept pulling over at every opportunity, certainly extends your riding day. Keep safe TMF

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Nick!

[@The_Arby]

Loving your journeys along the West Coast mate...Done them myself many times, but in a 4 wheel drive and free camping over night...Already looking forward to the next one :-)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Cheers Russ...

[@patrickcollins4643]

Wonderful stuff. One of my favourite parts of the world. I've spent many wonderful days in and around Arisaig and Morar over the years, it really is very special and if the weather is right there is no better place to be. Shame about the prat in the truck. Would you ever consider camping? You'd save yourself a fortune. With good quality modern camping kit you'd don''t need to be uncomfortable either. I've just spent the weekend in Snowdonia, cracking riding and only spent £16.00 on two nights accommodation on really good quality campsite. Wild camping in the highlands is free.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I like the sound of free, I don't like the sound of no bar and restaurant and not sleeping very well....

[@henryhartley9993]

Arasaig is a beautiful spot, the white beach you passed is called silver sands, the isle of Skye is mint....

[@splodge57]

Outrageous! Thank goodness you came out the other side ok. I know me cockney slang but never heard of a Hank Marvin.lol

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

What!! Hank Marvin - Starving

[@thematzo1]

I am fortunate enough to have a house on the Isle of Skye not far from where you will be landing on the ferry. I have just got a CRF 250 L (on your recommendation) that I am taking up there in a few weeks having now run her in and completed mods. As you now know, Skye is very popular, tip would be to book all accommodation and ferries well ahead of time. Then enjoy. Keep up the outstanding content.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Brilliant CRF territory - enjoy!

[@Doco72]

I know there’s at least another video coming but I secretly hope you surprise us with actually making it to Harris and Lewis. If you thought Skye was beautiful then you’d be amazed with the glory of the rest of the Hebrides. Great videos, just like all your others!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Some day I'll get there I promise!

[@gmcphoto]

Your drone footage was excellent especially for your first time. This is certainly going to bring your videos to the next level. I’m really enjoying this series as well.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks :0)

[@scottmclennan6114]

You beauty, Friday evening, glass in hand and a TMF video.

[@scottmclennan6114]

Rabbit Stu I’m in Canberra. Maybe you are in a different time zone?

[@jameshind6644]

The give away was you beauty. Same here in Perth, Western Australia

[@scottmclennan6114]

James Hind good stuff.

[@jameshind6644]

With your name you must come from Scotland or have a background there.

[@scottmclennan6114]

James Hind my family came from a place called Sallachy near the Kyle of Lochalsh. They came to Victoria in 1853 as a family group. I have been there some years ago and the area is beautiful. Must have broken their hearts to leave.

[@palantir135]

And Again: you fortunate guy 😃 The gravel roads are the same as in Norway.; there are lots of them. In a car you can do about 80 km to keep it safely 😬 Strontium is a metal which, in the natural form, is not radioactive. You'll have to go to Norway, than you know Scotland equals Norway-light. But beautiful.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Norway is my next trip :0)

[@phillippayne8170]

brilliant mate I thought you were CREAM CRACKERD with that truck And your drone footage is amazing well done mate

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Philip - I reckon I get a lot better at it as this series progresses, stay tuned!

[@johne5854]

Fantastic video. Could watch that again and again. Take care on the chippings. Hope your GS wasn't damaged by the stuff flying off that lorry's wheels.

[@martynleyfield2941]

🙈😰 That Lorry omg you did so well to handle that on those chipping Top Man 👏 love this video, iv done Scotland a few times but always room for another trip 😜 and hey the drone is a great idea. Regards Martyn

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you like it Martyn - all the best....

[@johnhalloran1234]

you will regret not going to Lewis \ Harris its the most beautiful part of Scotland i was over there last summer and loved every day of a seven day tour and i live in Scotland so have done most of the bike rides you have got to do it you wont regret it

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I will 100% be going back!
