I'm back with part 3 of my epic motorcycle adventure around Scotland's iconic North Coast 500, also known as Scotland's Route 66. Strap in for a ride filled with unexpected twists and turns. From running out of fuel to battling the infamous Scottish bugs, I've got it all in this action-packed segment.
But it's not all chaos and calamity. Amidst the trials and tribulations, we witness some of the most breathtaking ocean views that make every struggle worth it. The sheer beauty of the landscape will leave you in awe. #NC500 #ScotlandRoute66 #MotorcycleAdventure #travelvlog

I did all four cardinal points a few years ago and had a fuel problem, went to Ardnamurchan Point from Fort William and took the long route around the headland, I got to the point of no return, I had gas, just didn't have enough to get back, luckily I came across a battered looking pump outside a post office which saved the day.

Hi Saffy, I very much sympathise with you about the midges in Scotland . I grew up in Scotland and never had any problems with midges. But , in 1981, I moved south to England. Then in the early 2000's I decided to do a motorbike tour in parts of Scotland I hadn't been to for a long time. It wasn't until I was riding my bike through Glen Coe that I found out I was no longer immune to the midges. Luckily, a campsite that I decided to stop at overnight had a small shop on site. Inside the shop was a couple of shelves stocked with AVON Skin So Soft spray. The proprietor explained that this particular AVON product contained some ingredient which kept midges and other bothersome insects at bay. I bought some and found it to be very effective at keeping the little bitey things at bay, so much so, it is still part of my camping kit when I go touring on my bike or even going on long countryside walks. I would highly recommend you try this particular product as part of your camping gear in future. By the way, I am most definitely not an Avon rep.

@SaffySprocket 10 ай бұрын

@brucecurtis6281 10 ай бұрын

The water in the north west is the cleanest in Europe. Distilled from the Atlantic, it falls in copious amounts and runs off just as quickly, with no time to fester. Midges love CO2, heat and black clothing. Autan mosquito spray stops them biting. 3mph wind (or walking ) is too fast for them. Take more time to do the NC500. Even two weeks is too short to be able to drink in the varied and spectacular scenery. And take little detours, time to stroll on the beach, climb a hill, go see a waterfall. Fill up at every fuel station. Meet people and chat., buy a new T-shirt, Scotland does have shops. Stay in one place for another night if it feels good, and check the rain radar app forecast regularly. There is the riding, the scenery, the roads, the weather, the people, the sea, the mountains, the rain, the blue skies and scattered clouds, the locals, the fellow tourists, the beaches, aah the beaches, the wind and the welcome if brief sun. Enjoy the ride-but stop to appreciate the view.

A gas lantern turned down low will kill any midges that get in the tent with you at bedtime in about ten minutes. You’re right the CO2 attracts them and the flame finishes them off. Also recommend jungle formula or even skin so soft from the home shopping brand that slips my mind currently. I use a rain suit for bad weather as riding gear is so difficult to dry overnight when camping.

Hi Saffy, you sure know how to create a cliff hanger with your planning ha-ha, but joking apart isn't Scotland magical, I did the NC500 anti clockwise. Oh those pesky midges I used what the Commandoes use when on maneuverers it is made by Avon cosmetics called, Skin-so-soft, it's technically a moisturising oil but the midges hate the smell, better I think than smothering yourself in chemicals like Deet based repellents.

Open a jar of vics or 2 and place in the tent, pop olbus oil on yr clothing. Bugs mozzies an vampire midges flys spiders hate it as it numbs there senses an temp blindness. Pop olbus round yr neck hands ankles at night or day. Stay safe...

I got absolutely eaten alive , had to pack up in record breaking time then decided to put on my lid and burn it off to get away from the midges , then find that evening I’ve been bitten everywhere , inside my lid ,ankles , wrists , where my trousers and jacket meet , was horrible

Apparently they bite tall men the most (it's a legit study apparently 😂)

@@SaffySprocket to stop the itching and scratching once bitten heat a metal spoon in your stove then put it over the sting , best method is just heat the tip for a few seconds then move over the bite towards the tip till it’s as hot as you can handle with out actually burning yourself

Saffy, please consider not to put music in when your talking.. especially when your quoting a very nice poem... could not make out what you were saying and I'd much rather be able to hear you, not that noise.. thank you. Your great videos dont need music....

Hiya Saffy I'm really enjoying your videos BUT I have to say Your VIP sticker on your screen is in a bad place and hides lots of the view, It's really annoying.
