2024-1 Winter Cycling | Scottish Gravel | Surly Ice Cream Truck
Join me and my Fat Bike for a grand tour of some fine Scottish gravel routes, ridden in winter conditions. I explore mountain passes, cross high cols, ford freezing rivers and undertake portages through wild and unforgiving trackless terrain.

Join us on a cycle tour, coast to coast, from Oban to Inverness via the Island of Lismore, Appin, Ardgour and the Great Glen. We variously use the cycle route, Sustrans 78, the Great Glen way and our own knowledge of Scotland's backroads to stitch together a challenging and (more or less) traffic free route. Our journey involved 5 trains, 4 ferries and 2 bikes.

    Great review! I am building out a Krampus right now for bikepacking as well. Do you think you could have fit a 6L Ortleib frame bag within this Large Krampus frame? Or was that too big, and so you went with the 4L?

    HI Dave, I've just found your channel. Are you still paddling the Old Town 119? I ask because I am considering getting one. I live on the shore of Loch Sunart with Loch Shiel and Loch Morar not too far away and wonder how suitable they are for these waters? I'm also intrigued by your seat which is nice and low as my knees don't bend too well any more and I would find it difficult to kneel in rough conditions. I've had a good bit of canoe experience in the past so I'm not a complete novice. I'd appreciate your comments. BTW where are you based the Loch looked as though it was in the lowlands or the east of Scotland.

    Hello, I am Cihan from Turkey. I want to buy this tent too, but I received information from a user that it is rainproof. Based on your experience, does this tent let out rain from above? I would be very happy if you could give me information. Have a nice day.

    • @daveoutdoorsscotland2854
      @daveoutdoorsscotland2854 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello Cihan, the MCETO Tipi Tent belongs to my brother, so I don’t have much experience with this tent. However, is does appear to be rainproof. Also, because it is a fairly big tent, it does not appear to produce very much condensation. During our short test, the tent performed very well. It was relatively easy to put up (definitely easier with two people). The quality seems pretty good, especially considering the low price. Overall, I think it is a good tent. Personally, I would use it for extreme conditions, such as high winds or long periods of torrential rain or heavy snow. I think it would make a perfect and roomy shelter for summer camping. Hope this helps. ATB, Dave

      @daveoutdoorsscotland2854 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Andrew, thanks for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated. Yep, you’re absolutely right ‘you get what you pay for’. There’s an old saying, something along the lines of ‘the fish can’t see what you’re holding’, but that only goes so far! Some decent gear might not necessarily increase your chances of catching a fish, but it certainly makes it more satisfying. Hope you have time to check out some of the other vids; not many pure fishing vids on my channel though. ATB, Dave

      @daveoutdoorsscotland2854 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good morning, Martin. Mo and I have some plans for adventuring in 2024 and we hope to take the cameras along. I don’t think I’ll film much of my day trips or easier outings this year but do hope to keep the channel supplied with some decent adventure content. Mo has been away, visiting family for Spring Festival and doesn’t know of my tumble yet. The bruising on my shoulder has more or less gone, so I might avoid a proper telling off :) . Looking forward to glimpses of your own adventures. The days are getting longer and it is still a good while until bug season, so Mo and I might try to cram in a wild country trip. I’m guessing you will venturing north two or three times again this year? Whatever your plans, stay safe and take some photos; I love following your exploits. ATB, Dave
