My best biking memory, is travelling the B4407 when an Osprey came from nowhere, and flew just a couple of feet from my bars at head height for a good mile or so

So I just bought a 2024 1000 GT and I get 196 mi out of my tank and that's riding in A mode but not always in town. That's also testing it from the south coast of England to Inverness in Scotland. I think you must be pretty throttle happy if you are not getting 160, mi or more at your tank.

Biking wasn't for me. I couldn't cope with all the heavy leathers, armour and lugging a helmet about when you reached your destination. Everyone's in sunglasses and shorts and you're there dressed like Darth Vader on the hottest day of the year lol. I didn't feel fully comfortable on a bike either. I was always aware that if I came off, something on the bike broke or a car hit me, it could be curtains or a 12 month stint in hospital. It just wasn't for me because I'm obviously not a biker. The best transport for me on a trip like that would be a classic convertible. Shorts, t-shirt, the wind in my hair and enough room in the boot for a spare t-shirt and a few bottles of beer. Nice ride. 👍

5:22 that parking area is for the 'hole of horcum' which is a huge depression in the ground to the far left of the carpark 😊

Love Brown’s ❤

The road you started on b4391? Happens to be one of my faves.

Why is it annoying when you can't overtake cars on double whites that are adhering to the speed limit?

The B4407 is one of my favourite roads, Vid from 3 years ago, in the opposite direction. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i7JliMqCsc7bfo0.html

Pub is anti biker but Tea rooms are great go up to the Three Tuns if you want a biker friendly pub just over the bridge and up the hill

Did the road both ways at the weekend. It is indeed a good ride, with good clean tarmac. I continued cross the A5 heading to Denbigh, another great road a little less challenging.

The road surface on this B road is better than any A, B road or pavement in Cardiff City centre "pothole" capital of Wales.....

Technically you were outside of the national park at the beginning of your video but further along the B4407 at the turning for Penmachno you were inside it. Anyone visiting please watch out for sheep as they do roam free and often lie on the roads over the moors hence the cattle grids.. and hitting one at 80 would be quite messy.

👀👍👍👍☠🌚🇬🇧

Thanks for taking us with you on this ride, lovely fair play buddy

77 mph on a 60 or 50 mph road ???!

As a Welsh biker resident in North Wales..If you think that's a good road you want to try the A4059 turn off from the A4070 ..that's the best bit of road in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏍

B4391 for me, all day long. 👍

And the Adnams brewery 😁 🍺

Hi, U need a attractive KZfaq thumbnail designer to grow your views?

Do you dislike cyclists and the national speed limit is 60 mph.

You should try the B4406 which is just off that road to the left. It’s the same sort of road but with much better scenery.

You should have stopped at the Applecross Inn for a coffee and picture- you can look over the sea to Skye on a good day.

Rain, in Scotland, what are the odds ;-)

I like a road that tests the suspension 🙂

Great video thanks for sharing 😀

That is a cracking road, ridden it many times almost always wet. You might have gone to Lochinver this is a good little run from that road and has a famous world class pie shop and restaurant, well worth a visit.

This is not Honda NX500

Meall A Bhuiridh , try "meel a voori" and you are close

NC500 on motorbikes looks amazing, we did it last year inc Appelby cross pass in a 10meter 6 tonne motor home THAT WAS interesting.

Yes it is still run by the same family. Bradley who runs it now is the grandson of the original owner.

Nice mate, I'm at the tea hut allot. :) Might see you down there. Given you a sub for a fellow youtuber :)

Sorry buddy, It might be your best road. But I and a lot of others know quite a few better rides in Wales, it comes from living there.

Nice strategy, peace3ed

nice video

Average speed cameras going up on forss to reay bit road and speed vans on various roads on nc 500.

Not bracken that is like tall fern, yellow flowers gorse or whins!

Great content, it was cool to watch, such a shame that you won't do it until next year, worthy of doing it twice in the summer. Thanks for sharing and see you on your next adventure ✌️ 🤙 🤟

Thank you for the kind words 😊 so glad you could make it and look forward to next years trip with some islands thrown in! Videos have been great and well worth watching for anyone doing the NC500

Good video buddy now I’m not the only one that’s recorded the applecross pass with a 360 camera (I think)

There’s a great pub in Applecross (The Applecross Inn) and it’s fantastic. There’s a good campsite 10 mins walk away too.

Loving these videos Mike! Brings back memories 👏😍👍

Good video, enjoyed that. Was up through there yesterday on the bike but couldn't linger as had to get to Aberystwyth. A couple of months has certainly made a big difference to the vegetation - everything is a lot greener and you can't see through some of the corners like you could (also some fabulous banks of bluebells). Defo visor down - bugs everywhere! I didn't know about the car park and toilets over the top dam - and didn't cross it - useful info. There's a 'green lane' goes off round one of the reservoirs from one of these carparks... Is it from that top carpark? Have subscribed. M.

I fancy one of them I’m on 5”2 so lowering it maybe a must

Love this video so cool to see motorbikes where I live

A friend told me the best road in Wales was the road out ! 😁

Great video Mike. It is a lovely part of the country. Done a lot of walking around here but haven't taken the bike up there yet. I think when it comes to speed the ONLY person who can make a judgement is the person on the bike at the time. It's our arses on the line so our call! 🙂 Subscribed.

The no-pedo cafe 😆

What a charming location, I'm very much pleased by the content.

Is there a god dam

Some good points, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
