You are an amazing storyteller! I absolutely loved this video and your story!

Dont tell this to many, but when i heard your story i felt you would know. Im 69 ,have ridden all my life . Went for a ride through the north ga. Mountians in the states a few years back, half way to my destination it started raining and i decided to push foward . The sky got darker and the rain got heavier i was in some serious curves , no one was out and about all of a sudden a falcon flew out of the woods about 30 feet in front of my bike, i dont know how long it stayed but it flew in front of me leaning, and banking through the curves ahead like a heaven sent guide. I thought i had picked the wrong day to ride, turned out those few minutes were what people spend a lifetime searching for. That memory is etched into my soul...best ride of 50 years in the saddle my brother in the wind.

These stories really are the reason we ride. Last year I decided to do a 600 mile solo round trip to visit my brother on a holiday weekend. I decided to do it on my '78 FXE Shovelhead, a bike I had owned only a little while and never ridden it very far from home. The morning I left it was pouring rain but I was determined to go anyway. Thankfully the rain stopped half way there, but 3/4 of the way to my brother's place the old Shovel stopped also, on a lonely road miles from any town. Immediately two different people stopped and asked if I needed help. The first guy had gas but didn't know how to fix a bike. The second guy and his wife pulled over (he was an old-school biker) and offered to help fix the "Troublehead" as he called it. I had tools for everything except a pair of wire strippers, which he had in his truck. Thankfully the wire on the ignition switch terminal was the only problem and 20 minutes later I was back on the road. In my time of need people showed up with offers of help, even in the middle of nowhere. That was one of those moments for me that renewed my faith in humanity. Thank you for making these videos, it reminds us there are good people the world over and we all need to look for opportunities to pay the debt forward.

just watched your 4 videos in 1go, my Harley was up for sale.Was!! nice one

This story would make a wonderful Netflix documentary. I appreciate you for sharing. Viva Robbie, Anderson.❤

This story brought tears to my eyes and a melancholic warmth to my heart ...Much❤from India.

I think this video is better for having photos in it. Go pro videos are ten a penny - this video is art.

This is what riding an old chopper is all about, brilliant.

What a beautiful video and story, very heart warming- Loved every minute of it!

What a adventure and what a story mark. Loved it.

Freakin awesome story. Viva Robbie Anderson I hope I never forget his name either. The world has so much good in it we just forget sometimes 👍✌️

I have watched countless KZfaq videos, but for reasons I can't fully put into words, this one has truly captured my heart and stands out as one of the best.

Mate no word of a lie, I had the same thing. My mum passed away at 59 when I was 24 (in 2010).. A few years later I rode up the west coast and while on Skye, I lost my mind and bawled my eyes out thinking about how much she would have loved it. Not sure what it was but there’s something cosmic and spiritual all across the north west of Scotland. Still think of her every day, always more when I’m somewhere new/special.

Jesus at 71 You have just explained to me what I am ? Not practical vision over everything. What it looks like to me is so so important built a rat/survival bike 3 years ago love it to bits made many many friends through what it looked like but now too heavy for these old legs so back to the norm and yes Scotland is special be it by bike or even car Cheers !!

Mate, you are an absolute legend. Your storytelling and narrative are totally natural, heartwarming and inspirational. You don’t need a go-pro keep it as is…brilliant love your style 👍👍👍

What an incredible story. The bit about your mum made me think of my dad - he always wanted to ride off and take photos in Scotland’s wild places but never managed to do it. Robbie sounds like an absolute legend - I love mad characters because they’re (usually) genuine people who’ve been through the wringer and have some life lessons to share. What a kind thing for Robbie to do. If you get back up here next year, do shout out as I’d be happy to show you around my neck of the woods near the Cairngorms National Park. Reminds me that I should get a shifty on and do the north coast. Not done the northwest or the top and I don’t live that bloody far away either. Looking forward to some more stories.

Awesome mate Thanks Robbie

This wonderful story would bring a tear to a glass eye and a smile to a world-weary heart, at the very same time! Love your work, Ride on Brother. ❤️from 🇦🇺.

Excellent once again.

Bloody hell, captivated from the minute you opened your mouth, great story telling, cheers mate.

Bloody fantastic

Brilliant. Thank you👍

I've never been captured by a video on KZfaq as much as this one. Captured in every sense. What a story and what a way to tell it and like so many others have said, no need for a Go-Pro . Thank you.

Your monologue painted a picture, especially the Eagle,my bikes have had breakdowns ,but someone always miraculously appears and helps.Ps What is the piano piece ?.PPs Viva Robbie Anderson and yourself !.

This has probably been one of the best uploads I’ve seen. The story is very moving. Jolene, your Mum, Robbie..all crafted into a very moving story, expertly told. Inspiring, sir. Thank you 🙏🏼 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Her two wheels said it correct, your abilities to captivate, your journey through your voice and narration, Spot on. Keep doing what you do, I watched the part 4 and went back and did the first three. Everyone has a story and it is awesome to hear yours!! Thank you!!

Beatiful story, keep em coming Viva La Robbie Anderson 🫡

I did this trip in my Land Rover in 2005 it was magical, and I’m still living on it. Yes there are still some of us mad bastards left in Scotland, we’re a generous bunch of people. Great story 👍

Another amazing film... you've really found a groove here Mark! 🙌💯 PS. Viva Robbie Anderson...you have to do the T-Shirt now 🖤

Mate...this just encourages me to ride, Great job!

Hi again pal , ive got so say just absolutely class and in my opinion the pictures and lack of go pro just add to the excellent setting and story 👍

Great story, well told. I never expected to be moved by a Harley rider. Thanks for sharing 👍.

Oh my friend.... During lock down, I cleared my father's shed. Tucked up in the corner was a 1978 Trail Master that belonged to my Dad when he was dispatch riding. It was moth eaten, rotten and stank...but I saw some life in it. I posted the jacket to a restorer. At the cost of 300quid I received back, a patched, classic jacket that belonged to my Dad! I wore it daily for a year on my boxer. This year, I am blessed enough to buy myself a belstaf the same as yours... My Father's belstaf is neatly hanging place on a manikin in my room, with my dad's old helmet. Beautiful video. I'm a new subscriber by the way and hope to see you on the road

That’s got to be one of the best stories I’ve heard Mark, great footage. Thank you again for sharing. By the way I love Charles Bukowski read all is books and carry Women with me on all my road trips 😊 in Switzerland 🇨🇭 right now, on my way to Punta Bagna. Again grazie mille 😊👍🏻 and yes, the gentleman is right, you be great on Netflix.

Long, long before the inter'web or even books, we had storytellers. We are hardwired to listen, feel and appreciate a great story. Whatever the medium, the story is what touches us. You have the power; t'is a rare power to tell a tale that touches the heart. Thanks to Robbie for being the fire that ignited this story and to you for telling it so eloquently. Brilliant; even without the gopro.

Wonderful. Viva Robbie Anderson.

loved this. what a story!

Great story and beautiful scenery. Robbie's sidecar setup is badass!

Absolutely fantastic series, thank you for sharing your story mate

Brilliant brilliant brilliant!! We all need a 'Mad Robbie The Welder' in our lives! (Told you bud, 95% good!) The golden eagle tale brought a tear to my eye. Miss my Ma every day.... Keep em coming, stay safe👊🏻

👏👏👏👍 Totally enjoyed this....and i also have a hardtail harley chop with a springer front end ...inspiring film ☺

That Sir is the best video you’ve made to date! I’ve been on many tours around Europe with mates and the missus but only ever done one four day trip on my own and bloody hated it. After watching this maybe I should have another go.

Pure class. Great storytelling, you have the knack for it, thats for sure. I felt like i was on the trip.

Mate, I've seen all 4 of your videos one after the other and they're all beautiful, well done for both the images and storytelling. Viva Robbie Anderson! ❤💪

Beautiful Story Mark, captured the moments in time forever. Loved seeing mums old photos xx

You were never meant to film and document this in the generic go pro fashion. This video made me cry twice you bastard. Truly original and refreshing, thank you for sharing

Heartwarming tale.......respect to Robbie....ride safe bro..

What a beautiful story. Feeling like shite at the moment but this little video has cheered me up. Thank you so very much. Life can be beautiful.

Loved this, brought a tear to my eye, thanks brother!

Really enjoy your storytelling! What beautiful memory. Happy to hear you have plans to take your bride there❣

Well done... if anyone ever asks, it's always the journey ... motorcycling is the truth and nothing but... viva robbie Anderson and mums that left us too early... thank you Mark

A fantastic adventure love every minute of it, take care and ride safe..

Sounds like an amazing journey/trip there.

Robbie was delivering a message.. the same that my grandfather left to me. He believed that "we are what we give to others!" (no matter what, when or how). Our existence could be resumed to what we give, and the memorie that are created by doing it. I believe only good souls will receive it, the honest and humble, the purest and simple, the kindest ones. I also believe, that through motorcycles, this message is delivered more often.

Awesome story, so captivating! Thank God for the Robbie Anderson's in the world!😁

I've ridden since I was 16...75 now,can't stop,..it's addictive,,some days,after a long ride,totally intercoursed,I tell myself,it's time to stop, then I watch your videos,they remind so much of my past experiences....not yet son....not yet.

Without a doubt, one of the best videos and stories I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching. Thank you for sharing your experience and journey.

That was beautiful man, there are still some real people left in this world! In the wind. H.

Badass! Viva Robbie Anderson!

I went in April 23. On my Guzzi. Fairly well traveled around the world. Was amazed by west coast of Scotland. Just two days ride from my workshop. Thanks for a great film . My type of travel.

Brilliant, I love your stories and could listen to them all day. You are a natural orator Mark. Viva Robbie Anderson! - IanP

AWESOME video telling this epic story Thanks again for another short film. Mark from Maryland

Just brilliant...thanks for sharing. Love your narrative, style and story. Big up Robbie & Scotland ✊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What a great video with an even better story, will definitely watch this video often, well done.

A beautiful story and well told. My solo trip to the North of Scotland was during the pandemic in October 2020. 'Bob' my 2011 Harley Fat Bob and I set off in the pouring rain and it rarely stopped for the whole week. It nearly ended before it started when someone pulled out right in front of me on the A9. We missed each other by inches. I didnt stop coz I knew I would do something bad to him, I just kept going with me staring at him in my mirror and him stationary in the middle of the road staring back at me. I did the route anticlockwise because someone said it was the best way. An amazing experience and because of the pandemic there was nobody out and about until I got back down into Cumbria. Since then Ive solo rode through France and Spain but I want to return to Scotland. It was a different sort of experience.

What an amazing story - beautiful. Thank you for sharing!!!

You’ve restored my faith in humanity, thanks brother

Did the NC500 on my Triumph in May this year, and timed it perfectly as I didn’t have a single days rain during the whole week, and it wasn’t too busy at all! It’s hard to describe how clear my head felt during the trip, the rolling fields, wildlife and coastlines are exactly what the soul needs to break away from city life. Looking forward to the next time I find myself on 2 wheels way up north, whenever it may be!

I did similar trip on my old Triumph as a 16 year old in 1962 - still riding although in a sunburnt, country Australia

Agree agree agree.. Good things happen to good people...

Mark. You're a riding Bob Dylan from the UK. Pure entertainment mate.

Thanks for sharing your beautifully told story….. NW Scotland is a magical land and my friend and I, on our two 40+yr old BMWs, had a similar amazing trip with no rain which will live with me forever. Your experience of the goodness of people and the brotherhood of bikers is one that I’ve shared during a lifetime of motorcycling. Not only with other bikers but with most people you meet, who are always keen to talk about your adventure and what led you to their part of the world. I think that on a bike (especially an older bike) you are seen as a true traveller, an old knight of the road, and people are drawn to help where they can….. Viva Robbie Anderson 😊

Loved every minute of your story , got me in tears at 63 . I love Scotland and its rugged west coast and islands . Just back from South Erradale near Gairloch . But get yourself to the Outer Hebrides . You will be blown away by its beauty . Thankyou

An awesome tale of daring do and kindness least expected.

Awesome video! I really enjoyed watching it. You're a brilliant story teller.

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing this epic trip. You have a gift for telling a story, R.I.P. Joleen😢 I look forward to many more!

LOVED THAT! The NC 500 is on another level

Bloody awesome tale mate. Viva Robbie Anderson, what a legend. 👍

Another banger! Absolute art. I love you man.

What an absolutely feckin beautiful video and story, it might've bought a tear to my eye 😉 We also got lucky in Scotland as well with no rain a couple of years back. VIVA ROBBIE ANDERSON! 😁😎👌

Fantsstic story a man after my own heart

You kind sir have rocked my world 🙏👍

Lovely Thank you.

You moved my heart to the shining side of righteousness. You made me miss Flodigarry, at the top of Skye, where I heard by chance the most incredible bagpipe player ever, playing to the moon and the waters, and to no one else. Thank you for you.

I've been trolling KZfaq motorcycle content for years- why I haven't come across you earlier is a mystery. I love your content and presentation, the unique element of your videos is that I can tell I will rewatch them. Thanks for sharing.

Your videos have become exceptional. And your mum was a very pretty lady. Some story and views

Beautiful. Thank you ❤

such a Wonderful tale...Robby the Welder brought tears to my eyes....Im getting my bike out tonight :-))

Truly wonderful listening to your storytelling Lean into the Wind. I tell you whats weird about that trip, you passed twice within 10m of my front window on Skye. Once coming in and second leaving the island. How could I have missed Jolene. Yep, 'hidden lives' again, viva Robbie! Cheers man

The best twenty minutes I've watched on you tube for a while mate.

What a story ,thankyou for sharing,made my day .

Watched this in its entirety a couple of days ago. Great story of a great journey. My girl and I visited Scotland in the summer of ‘22 and were absolutely floored by its beauty, its friendly people and its amazing roads. I hope to get back there some day, this time on two wheels and do the NC 500, or just spend another 2-3 weeks exploring that amazing place. Thanks again for sharing your ride. Really enjoyed this!

I've never been so fucking inspired in my life viva Robbie Anderson

Friggin hell...I'm welling up ere! Viva Robbie Anderson indeed. Thank you.

Great to watch your video and listen to your experience. You enbody the spirit of motorcycling so well, more about the adventure than what bike we ride, long may it continue my friend 👍🏻

What an epic trip and so well told! Thanks for sharing. Much love from a Brit in Germany!

Viva Robbie Anderson

I’ve honestly loved this. Everything about it
