@ianedgerton8219 yeah what an absolute nightmare. Annoyingly we had met a week or so earlier to get this sorted and managed it no problem. But this time - no chance.

@racheltaylor6578 From when we pass the Finnart Oil Terminal at 11.13 until 13.25 we rode along side Loch Long. Beforehand, from Helensburgh to Faslane was Gare Loch. Got to admit, this was the first time we'd ridden this road as we'd always gone up via Loch Lomond A82 before. We've missed out on a great stretch of road.

Hi, it was the A814 north of Garelochhead, which runs up the side of, I think, Loch Long to Arrochar.

@@kevinrsvr thanks. One for a future ride.

Cheers man. That really is much appreciated.

Cheers mate. Yes it was good to get away and cross off another one off the bucket list. It was also so good to get away on tour again after 5yrs because of life commitments getting in the way. I'll get the other episodes uploaded soon as well.

Yeah, we can't thank that generation enough for the sacrifices they made during that time. My mate Darren's grandad and dad both fought for our country.

Thanks Alan. I'm trying to get the others edited and rendered ready for TH-cam but like all things, life has a way of holding things up.

I think there is some more footage from a couple of more days and I think most of the Grossglockner footage is ok too although that's when I started to have issues. Because I have a very small budget and one simple little camera, it started to play up and I lost a lot of footage on the way home. Had mic issues on the last trip we did. Great footage but sod all sound. I'll see if I can dig anything more up and try and piece it together.

Yes, the missus came with me for the whole trip this time.

No problem mate. Glad you like it. This was an early go at this vlogging lark. Although I'm not great at it I think its nice to try and inspire folks to get abroad on their bikes. It's not as daunting as I first thought and some of the roads and scenery is out of this world.

That's a shame. It works well for us, I love racking the miles up whereas the missus doesn't and flying to wherever we're going suits her just fine. The next planned trip should be the Pyrenees and Andorra and she'll fly down to mid France and I'll pick her up from the airport at Limoges (Ryanair special)

I've got the TomTom Rider 400. I use it with the TYRE navigation programme (which is now know as My route App I believe).It means that I can import routes that I've created on the PC and then load them onto the TomTom. A word of caution though. If you haven't set up enough way points the satnav will still try to send you via the shortest, fastest or most economical route whatever you have it set on. Many a time its tried to send me down small side roads when I know that I needed to stay on the road I was on. But I quickly learnt to put waypoints at virtually every main junction or turn and have had no issues in France or anywhere else in Europe to be fair.Don't know how it compares with the GarminIf you're riding in France remember to disable the speed camera option on the sat nav as it's illegal in France.

@@kevinrsvr thanks for the reply that's useful info... 👍👍 I'll give it a go..
