This is the start of our Scotland tour where we were based in the Parkdean Holiday Park in Nairn.
This episode shows our journey north over the first 2 days. Staying at Kinross Travelodge overnight on our first day after a 290 mile ride up country. The second day has us riding through more scenic places over 144 miles to get to our base for the next few days Nairn, from which we will be touring from.
The crew this year was a three man one with Mussy, Dec and myself riding together. In future episodes you will see us riding the Whiskey Galore route 189 miles, Riding to and around the Isle of Skye, Myself doing the Falls of Shin ride and all of us riding through the Cairngorms.
There is quite a bit of drone footage for you to see to using my trusty DJI Mavic Pro and a fair bit of banter as usual LOL.
Please enjoy watching each episode and if you like them spread the word and let other bikers know, Thanks for watching and as always if you ride please Ride Safe.

@@Steve-Clark living in the Edinburgh area in the 70s we crossed the old Forth bridge many many times on mcylcles, small ones as we were, the wind would push you across the lanes, deadly. Fast forward another 20 years and taking a trip home to visit mum they couldnt land at Edinburgh for the wind, scariest landing attempts ever (x3) then diverted to Glasgow.

Great to see you lads up in my neck of the woods, my mother was born and brought up in Nairn, spent nearly every school holiday there. You may have missed a trick by heading to Carr-bridge then back onto the A9 after Aviemore. If you continue on heading for Grantown on Spey the road snakes through the Dava moor real Scottish wilderness. The road is very undulating and super twisty, great fun on a bike. Just past Lochindorb with its ruined castle, hideout of the Wolf of Badenoch who pillaged and burnt local Abbey's and Cathedrals, the road splits for Nairn and my hometown of Forres. It's far more interesting and challenging than the A9. Heading East from Nairn are the beaches of Findhorn, Rose Isle and Hopeman all within a few miles of each other. May be worth a look next trip, that whole coastline is stunning with cliffs and caves as you go further along Enjoy your holiday, I look forward to the rest of it.

@@Steve-Clark KZfaq have been boycotting my channel recently and hiding my comments as well as comments from others on my channel. Others have noticed similar discrepancies on their own channels, even likes and views are being magic'd away. Upon receipt of my channel update email today, I made a lengthy complaint about their treatment of smaller channels in this manner. Sure sometimes I spit out truths they might not want to hear but they have to appreciate that if they are going to secretly attack me, I will bite back. A video I posted recently had 36 views and 18 likes within two hours. Imagine my anger to find hours later it had only 18 views and 3 likes? Others are noticing similar discrimination against them whilst more popular monetised channels can have more likes than views? I'm heading in the direction I mentioned next week, I'll make sure to record it so that others can see some of Scotland's roads less travelled and views and sights less seen. Thanks for letting me know, I suspected when every other comment had a reply except mine that it was hidden from you. As you can tell by its content I was only trying to be helpful and give encouragement, no hint of offence, discrimination or any other reason to hold it for review. Sure other comments of mine have been very anti establishment whilst simply pointing out the truth. There's an agenda being played out in all aspects of our lives right now, politics, science and media are all playing their part. When I see the suffering this causes I will of coarse speak out against it, however it appears that truth must be silenced at all costs. Agenda 2030 "you will own nothing and be happy" their words not mine. Forgive me for being Human, it's a dying trait apparently!!

Sorry to say that my cousin in Hagworthingham is not too good as she went down with breast cancer but she is in fine spirits Keep riding safely and I'll keep you posted on what our plans are .

Hi Steve it's been a long time coming great video... I love the way you edit it together with both views from the camera.. What drift is the camera you use to record the view of you talikng?.. Is this on constant record and you edit it in with front faced footage when you put it all together.. Sorry for long question but I love the way you film thanks Steve Rich from Hull

Hi Steve Muzz and Dec, cracking scenery up there. I must say like a few others I prefer the Old Military rd but I don’t like using the same road for going and returning. I have a question for Muzz, I have the same bike as he, I wouldn’t have put it down as a touring bike, I find the vibration tingle at 70 for prolonged periods too much, how does he find the long-hauls?

Hi Anthony we don't like going and coming back on same road so saved home run for the best way back. And Mussy says he never gets any vibration on his bike, think different people feel different things. Ride Safe my friend.

Hi Steve, just came across your channel and liking your content, loving your Scotland tours, I have a 2006 R1200rt but it has the abs delete, can you tell me what the model of your shark helmet is? How do you find it, looking to upgrade and fancy trying an open face, cheers Paul (south of oban) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
@Steve-Clark
@Steve-Clark Жыл бұрын
Hi Paul and thanks for watching the video's fella, the helmet is a shark evoline series 3 which is a bit old now and a few models have been released since but I love it and very rarely fold the chin guard back in place. Can be slightly noisy when open but hey it's an open face then. But definitely highly recommend them hope that helps.

Hi Steve, great stuff as usual...i am thinking of getting a camera, primarily for safety and insurance purposes, just incase the unthinkable happens, but it's a minefield....i was wondering how you cope with the low battery life of most products, even the "better" ones...it seems to me that i may need a hard wired (for charging) one on the bike, for accidents sake...and maybe a helmet cam, for filming the ride, bends and scenery...battery powered....how do you manage, some of your videos are longer than typical battery life, plus there must be footage not uploaded...? thanks

Hi Steve don't go the GoPro route as they are the worst batteries going 45 mins max. I have drift cameras and get at least 3hrs for each battery of which I have 5 🤣. Mine is an old ghost S but my mates is one of the newer ones and gets at least 7hrson one charge, think it's the drift XL but would recommend Drift all day long. Hope that's helped fella.

@@stevehotshotsantini9777 I use genuine sandisk 32gb cards (got about 12 now) bit of advise buy them from Amazon so you know they are genuine. I once bought from eBay and ended up fake said 32gb and were actually 8gb and I missed loads of what I thought was recording but wasn't. Plus 32 is a nice size about 3hrs record time. Don't go massive i.e. 128gb 256gb as if the card corrupts you lose all the tour where as 32gb if corrupts you just lose a few hrs. Hope that helps.
