- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- In this the last episode we ride the A87 onto the A82 down past the Commando memorial near Spean Bridge.
We continue on through the stunning Glencoe mountains then have a stop off at the Green Welly stop before ending with heavy rain again to our destination Dumbarton Travelodge.
I really hope you have enjoyed your journey with us round the NC767 which incorporated the North coast 500.
I have another full tour we did in Devon but unfortunately the audio did not work on the helmet camera. So at the minute I'm thinking wether or not I can do anything with it .
We'll see but don't want to put out any old rubbish for the sake of it.
Thanks for watching really appreciate it and bye for now.

A very well presented tour of Scotland. Simple down to earth honest people, hard work on editing and filming and also trying their best to let all the viewers get the best experience. There are so many around on U-Tube but you'd be hard pressed to find one like this that you can enjoy and watch it broken into its individual sections. Thank you.
Thank you Mohammad really appreciate such a positive comment and very happy that you enjoyed the series my friend, stay safe.
I've only been to the UK once in my life, but never made it to Scotland. I'd heard of the NC500, but I'll probably never have the opportunity to drive the road, let alone ride it on a motorbike. Thanks Steve and Dek for taking us with you. It was thoroughly enjoyable, all 9 installments.
Thanks for watching and for leaving such a positive comment I appreciate it Peter stay safe my friend.
What a fabulous series you have produced. You should be very proud. Excellent filming, music, commentary, information and editing. Not too much chat like some who go on for ever boring you with incessant drivel, you wish they'd just shut up! This is perfect. Have enjoyed every mile you have ridden on this one. This series should be the definitive tour guide for the NC500 and 767. Thanks for very much for making.
Thanks Alex appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. And thank you for the high praise. Ride Safe my friend.
Liked the series. Great photography. As a local the place name pronunciations were pretty terrible. A wee tip to get the Scottish Ch sound, as in loch.
When you touch the back of your tongue against the roof of you mouth to make the sound, leave a small gap and breathe out.
You'll be talking like a native in no time. Loch Lochy is a good one to practice on!
Definitely on my bucket list & no doubt I’ll watch the whole lot again over the long dark winter months. I know what a pain it is trying to edit & decide which bits to put in the videos so hats off to you Steve for keeping us all entertained especially the drone footage.
Cheers mate & ride safe.👍🏍
Thanks Si appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. And was happy I finally managed to get a sunny day to send the drone up. Would have loved to view a lot more of this tour from the sky's but weather had other idea's. Cheers Si Ride Safe my friend.
Just binge watched the whole trip and really enjoyed the anti-clockwise journey. The road and town references really help to add context to the ride. Well done.
Thanks my friend
9:14 “don’t worry about fuel, get to the chippy” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 definitely the best NC500 tour or 767 in this case on TH-cam.
Cheers fella and thanks for such high praise on the series. Food first petrol second lol. Ride safe buddy.
Steve, what an incredible series,, and what a journey you took us on! The drone footage at Glencoe is awe inspiring. I hope you have other tours planned in the not to distant future and you won’t keep us on tenterhooks to long for some more awesome videos! Thanks again for the entertainment 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks David we do have plans for lots more but obviously it will be next year now. Pleased you enjoyed them all my friend.
Another cracking video. On those roads manys a time.
I was on the road from Invergarry to Plockton this year on a solo run. It was a beautiful summers evening about 7.30, not a car to be seen and the road was my own... Sometimes in our biking times we have sublime moments... That was one of mine....the sun on my face, talking to my Kawasaki 1400 to make sure she was enjoying herself, after all it was her holiday as well....
Scotland the brave.
Scotland the beautiful.
Cheers fella and thanks for sharing that great moment with us. Ride Safe my friend.
What a thoroughly enjoyable series, if Carlsberg ( Bellhaven perhaps) did motorcycle tours this would be it. It was like a really good Sunday lunch, well prepared, cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of good gravy. Commentary was spot on, no wind noise from the Mike, perfect music selection and a smattering of good humour. Little Dek was a trooper, following on unrelentingly, with the occasional throwing up of his arms as if to say " What on earth are we stopped for now"? Sadly our freedoms have been stripped away and if not relinquished soon, many of these little cafe's, hotels etc, will be gone. This trip was a tribute to what being human means, sadly now being human is against the rules, how sad 😢.
Hi Michael really pleased you enjoyed the series and I appreciate big time you taking the time to write such a positive comment. I spent a lot of hours editing and putting the series together so its a great feeling when viewers like yourself leave such a glowing review so thanks very much.
Lets hope we can all get out and about and start touring around our beautiful country very soon. Stay safe my friend and thanks again.
@@Steve-Clark You're welcome mate, hard work deserves appreciation and praise!! A thank you doesn't cost you anything but it is received like it was minted in gold. I live in Perth, but was born and brought up in Morayshire ( NE coast) more gentle hills but lots of stunning beaches. I just returned to biking after twenty years away, bought myself a Triumph Tiger 1050 Sport which I'm now trading for a Yamaha FZ1, stunning bike. I'm also investing in a Kawasaki ZZ-R 1400, for touring ( freedom permitted). I've probably toured less of Scotland than you have yourself, but I've also discovered some little known gems. I'd be delighted to join you on one of your escapades, or even just to meet up for a pint, let's hope we get some freedom this summer but the odds look like they're against it.
@@michaellilley6725 Perth you lucky fella, as you knoe we passed there on the way to travel the cairngorms. Good choice of tourer the Kwaki ZZ-R 1400 really like those, pleased to hear your rejoining the biking clan after a lay off, ride safe (when we can) and who knows maybe have that pint some time.
@@Steve-Clark Yes Perth is pretty central as far as access to the rest of Scotland, we're pretty snowed up with temps down to -18°c, so even a ride out to the shops would be very unadvisable!! Not taking delivery of the ZZ-R untill the weather improves but hoping to swap the Triumph for the FZ1 Fazer soon, to use as a daily/run around. The Triumph is a nice bike but somehow I'm just not jelling with it and the Fazer brings back memories of past times. It also happens to be a stunning customised example, one previous owner, with low milage. Hope we have a bit of freedom this summer, don't be shy to look me up if you get the chance to pass through. A little gem that few know about is just North of Inverness, look for the small villages of Marybank, Contin, and Strathconnon. They lie on the old road to Ullapool and the West with stunning scenery, waterfalls, Ospreys, Eagles, Otters, Deer, leaping Salmon, and the Hydro dam system comprising multiple lochs and rivers. Best wishes..Michael.
@@michaellilley6725 Wow cheers for all that info Michael really appreciate it. Can't believe -18 degrees holy cow. Hoping to do Wales this year if covid has done one but will always be returning to Scotland sometime, stay safe bud.
First time I went through Glencoe\ Loch Lomond it was torrential rain and gale winds with a lot of artic lorries- scared the bejesus out of me. Second time through there was glorious sunshine. Can't recommend the NC500 enough, if you get the sun it's heaven. Thanks for sharing Steve.
Pleased you enjoyed it my friend and agree NC500 has to be done by all bikers.
Nice one,all 9 episodes totally enjoyable,spectacular scenery,amusing banter/commentary and good helpful advice all round.Cheers Steve.
Cheers Gary and thanks for taking the time to comment appreciate that. Pleased you enjoyed them my friend.
Found this on a MO Thomson video of a Scotland tour, comment added by Alan Macnaughton
. It sums up scotland beautifully so I had to share it with you Steve. " Happy Days :) ".
5 years ago
If God did actually make the world, he gave us Scotland so we know what it looks like in heaven, then gave us midges so we know what it feels like in hell.
Ha ha brilliant heaven and hell, thanks for the comment my friend.
Another cracking video in this fantastic series Steve, sad to see it come to the end. Completely agree, when returning to 'civilization' it comes with mixed feelings, kind of welcome, but sad at the same time! Roll on the Spring!
Thanks Paul and yeah its a shock to the system when you start seeing 'houses and people' again after the highlands Lol. Roll on spring indeed.
Watched all 9 in one sitting, that's how good it was,🍻
Cheers Stephen pleased you enjoyed them and that's what I call binge watching 🤣 ride safe my friend 🏍
@@Steve-Clark 👍
Have watched all of them they were all brilliant well done , take care both of you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Peter pleased you enjoyed them my friend 👍
Excellent series Steve, I watched them all. Enjoyed them all. But the real star is Scotland itself, we are lucky to have this so near.
Totally agree and hence the reason I return year after year. ride safe my friend.
really enjoyed the 9 episodes and all the road information provided, your accommodation was great, what I really liked was your casual approach to the route as some vloggers rush round, nicely done.
Appreciate the positive comment David thanks. Pleased that one you watched the whole series and two you enjoyed them. More to come but obviously its seasonal so all that we have planned and its loads will be next year my friend.
Just watched the series, again, and loved it. You are so lucky with your travels, but more so, very lucky to have Dek along. What a brilliant companion. Couldn't help thinking of what might of happened if the ABS pump on the BMW had failed on Bealach na Ba !!!! Keep up the videos and stay safe
Thanks Ajay and your right couldn't wish for a better riding buddy than Dek he's a top bloke. And ABS failure on Applecross doesn't bear thinking about. Ride Safe my friend.
Great series Steve, the A87 is a great road then the A82 to the green welly as an added bonus...
Totally agree Henry great bits of road indeed. thanks for watching.
Hi Steve we have watched your Scotland trips many times and have been so impressed we are going in August. We have even booked up the first night in Kinross. Can't wait. All thanks to you. 👍
Hi Trevor thanks for watching my friend and appreciate the positive comment. Pleased it's inspired you to do it and you are not going to be disappointed fella, ride safe and ENJOY 👍
Probably the best NC500/767 on TH-cam, cheers guys, I lived on the north side of Loch Torridon, so regularly travelled between Gairloch, Kinlochewe, and Loch Carron, so it was great to watch you drive along Glen Torridon from Kinlochewe. Loved the Beallach Na Ba section , have driven it many times . Thanks
Wow, thanks! Pleased you enjoyed them and appreciate the positive comments , ride safe my friend.
What a fantastic series and a great montage to finish. Well done Steve bloody brilliant.
Thanks Simon pleased you enjoyed it fella was one of the best tours I've done and would recommend it to anyone. Stay Safe my friend.
Fantastic series. You did my country proud, Steve and Dek. You should take this up professionally.
Thanks John appreciate the comment my friend.
Thanks again for all the effort , take it from us viewers it's been well worth your efforts .

Thanks for watching Colin and appreciate you taking the time to comment my friend. We have booked for Wales already for next year and have a few more plans in the pipeline. Cheers Steve
Good morning Steve ,I have just re watched this series and found it just as interesting as the first time round if not more because you see things that you missed the first time, for me the Nc 500/767 are now on my bucket list, it's great to see you have such Love and Pride in your riding and your bike, I'll be watching loads more of your your old videos and looking forward to it already,👊👊👊,thanks Steve.
Sorry for the late reply fella and thanks for taking the time to comment, pleased you enjoyed them my friend.
Just watched this series of 9 over the last 2 days Steve. Great set of videos to watch and good times to look back on in the years to come 👍
A bit of binge watching there John pleased it kept your attention throughout and that you enjoyed it my friend. The reason I do these is to keep a momento of our trips so as to be able to look back at them when we can no longer ride (hopefully not for a few years yet LOL) Stay safe fella and thanks for watching.
Brilliant I have just watched all this tour back to back thanks Steve for sharing your trips!!
Pleased you enjoyed it my friend and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Well what a brilliant series, thanks very much. Drone footage on a clear day over Glencoe, perfect! :) A nice fitting tribute to the Commando's too, without men of their bravery and sacrifice we'd all be speaking German now. Take care both :)
Thanks fella was lucky to get a sunny day for sending drone up. Shame I couldn't fly it more. Thanks again for a cracking comment appreciate it. Ride Safe mate
Thoroughly enjoyed entire series. It allowed me to see places I will never see due to a strong fear of heights(especially above water), I will never ride some of these roads. Cheers guys..
Thanks William appreciate you taking time to comment and pleased you enjoyed the ride my friend.
Fat Lad on a bike, you have done it again, great set off videos, I no all this area so well and you both enjoyed yourselves, that's what motorcycling is all about, look forward to the next trip, regards.
Cheers Colin thanks for such a great comment really appreciate it my friend.
My cousin had one of those Can-am Spyders, seemed to like it. Also drone footage was awesome. Proves the value of having one. Thanks again Steve another top quality episode, really shows off the Scottish riding.
Was nice to finally have chance to fly it my friend and was pleased with the results. thanks for watching fella ride safe.
I've enjoyed every second watching your tour. It's been an absolute pleasure, and thank you for taking the time to do whatever you have to do to put it on youtube.
Cheers Sprout appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. Ride Safe buddy.

I'm planning on doing the NC500 this year & forwarded the first episode to a couple of my mates,they also watched the full series & now the 3 of us are going up there.Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Mark pleased you enjoyed them and cheers for sharing. I have just about finished putting together the FULL 12 mile ride over Applecross Pass to show people EXACTLY what to expect when riding over it, probably out on Saturday.
You will not be disappointed Mark & mate's with the NC500 it blows you away fella.
Thanks Steve for the videos love them all. You do it so well. Keep up the good work all the best to all. ******
Thanks Roger really appreciate you taking the time to comment my friend. Ride Safe fella

Best Nc 500 series on TH-cam
Been taking notes on all of it - thanks for time & effort you put in 👍
Thanks for that Paul and pleased it's helped, your gonna have a great trip my friend. Ride Safe.
What can I say, excellent. Been to Scotland several times, super biking roads. Better quality tarmac than in UK👍👍
Have to agree with you Nigel the roads and surfaces are great, scenery ain't so bad either lol. Ride safe my friend.
Great vid ,from s,wales till I got home I covered 2100 miles, 8 day trip ,loved every second,
It is a great tour Neil isn't it, pleased you enjoyed the vids.
Absolutely brilliant Steve iv really enjoyed ever episode,the drone footage was amazing I’m gutted it’s over I really look forward to this ever week hurry up and go on tour again,thanks again be safe mate 👌👍

Best nc500 / 767, I’ve watched, and I’ve seen lots 👍
Thanks Gary high praise indeed really appreciate it and thanks for watching. Stay safe my friend.
Last time we called in at the Eileen Dolan Castle to shelter from the rain it was packed with bus loads of tourists. Taking notes of how to put a vid together, I must use the music better. Glad you got some decent weather. That weird trike is a Can Am which can be ridden on a car license. Thanks for the vids, including the drone stuff, know how much work has gone into them. Cheers Richard H
Cheers Richard appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. thanks for the trike info and your channel is growing fast and rightly so keep it up.
Living in Fort William is handy , on a sunny day the A87 to Skye is one of the best runs in the country 😀. And not far at all.
Bit of local knowledge Steve .. Eilean Donan castle is pronounced ‘eel an ‘ a bit like Loch Eil ‘eel’ by Fort William .
Enjoyed this series very much 👍🏻.
Thanks John Skye is in future plans my friend and thanks for the pronunciation lesson always willing to learn. Ride Safe fella
Well done Steve really enjoyed following you and your partners travels.Drone footage at Glencoe was amazing.I have often seen deer herds on the mountain directly opposite where you were parked.
Thanks Jimmy pleased you enjoyed it and shame there wasn't a herd of deer where I flew the drone that would have looked cool. Ride safe buddy.
Thoroughly enjoyed this whole series from down here in South Australia. A fellow RT owner who appreciates your effort, cheers👍
Cheers Peter appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. Ride Safe my friend.
Really enjoyed these vids mate. Like I said I am across the river from Dumbarton, we are blessed wi great roads up here, when the weather is good, but, again, thank you for these vids.
Lucky guy living in such a land of beauty. thanks for watching fella.
Awesome filming of a wonderful place, really enjoyed it, very informative, 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks Lynden pleased you enjoyed the series, stay safe my friend.
Fantastic, keep them coming. Think I will watch it all again.
Cheers Andy don't know when new stuff will be but keep following there will be more.
A cracking set of films showing the beauty of Scotland, pity you had some rainy days but that’s holidaying in the Uk. If you are planning any further Scottish trips, take a look at the Youth hostels up there. Have been pleasantly surprised at the standard of the accommodation & facilities provided at a reasonable price. Safe riding,cheers.
Thanks Martin appreciate the comment and we did have a hostel as one of our stops but changed it for fear of it being poor facilities but after your comment it gives me confidence to give them a try ion the future. Cheers ride safe my friend.
Great set of videos, great music and commentary. We did the 500 last year in our motorhome but missed out the Drumbeg and Applecross loops ... more in deference to other road users than any fear of driving it .... I always think the whichever way you approach Glencoe it`s like Scotland is opening it`s arms and saying `Here I am`, fantastic. Hope to do it on my bike soon ..... after Ireland.
Thanks for taking the time to comment Steve and pleased you enjoyed them, really hope you make it on your bike my friend 😀
Thanks for the great coverage, tips and sights...
No worries Mike pleased you enjoyed the tour my friend.
Steve love your videos and your commentary, they kept me sane during lockdown. Wife and I just done Scotland using ‘this series as a guide. Thanks for all your hard work. Trev
Thats brilliant Trev pleased I helped in some way and just know you will have loved it.Stay safe fella
What an enjoyable series.
Pleased you enjoyed it Paul.
Just watched all the NC 500 anti -clockwise ,, great stuff guys , Started to watch return to Scotland series now ,, cheers for your videos
Thanks David for watching the series and pleased you enjoyed it fella.
Yet another great series. Thanks Steve.
Thanks Neil pleased you enjoyed them.
This is the best series I have ever watched about Scotland motorcycle tour. Not only tour, also filming, editing was perfect. Thank you Steve thank you Dek for your effort, please don't stop, keep going...
Thanks Devri appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. And thank you for the high praise. There are plans for a lot more to come but as you can appreciate this kind of channel is seasonal and we can only bring you content when its riding season. Cheers my friend.
Great series, really enjoyed it and would love to do this one day soon. Keep them coming and ride safe all
Thanks for watching my friend and hope you get to do it one day it's a top top tour.
Absolutely brilliant Steve the drone footage was excellent as was all the episodes of your trip.Safe riding Steve look forward to your next tour when ever that may be.
Thanks Kevin got lots of tours planned next year but will be a break now my friend.
Brilliant series Steve I enjoyed all the episodes thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching them all JC appreciate it fella.
Great! So relaxing to watch. Well done Steve.
Cheers fella appreciate the comment
Fair play these are probably the best videos I`ve seen on the NC500 (767) . Myself and a friend did quite a bit of the NC 500 back in Sept 19 anti clock wise. Would love to do it again but plan it better. It deserves far more views.
Thanks Eric pleased you enjoyed them fella and we may return at some point to do it again clockwise. Ride safe my friend.
Thanks for making and sharing this series of videos, great inspiration for forthcoming trips, cheers 🍻
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching Dave.
Found your NC500 adventure by chance. Brilliant series. My wife and I did this tour last June on our BMW. One of our best tours. Keep the vids coming.
Thanks for watching and pleased you enjoyed the series fella.
Stumbled across your videos. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole series. Good stuff mate. Glad you enjoyed our wee country 😁
Thanks John pleased you enjoyed my friend Scotland is my favourite part of the UK as you will see if you look at my other series on here, bulk of which are Scotland, stay safe fella and thanks again for watching.👍
Great series Mr C, mebbe your best - glad you got a bit of good weather going through Glencoe, the drone footage you took was 'stunning'!
Cheers fella shame I didn't fly it more but yeah was well pleased with the Glencoe footage,
Another great video. That drone footage was something special!
Yes John was pleased how it turned out, wish I'd had chance to fly it more but lots more tours to come. Thanks for watching fella.
Loved this series! Brilliant commentary, brilliant choice of music, brilliant scenery, brilliant roads, and two mates having a brilliant time. Thanks for taking us along with you 👍
And thank you for watching my friend and for taking time to comment, ride safe fella
Done that run from Skye down 3 year ago really nice to see it again,was stopped in the same lay-by where you put your wet gear on and the green welly thanks for sharing with us
Cheers Jed pleased you enjoyed it mate and it's just such a good route isn't it, would recommend it to anyone. Thanks for taking the time to comment fella.
Really enjoyed that. Thank you too you both.
Thanks David pleased you enjoyed it and if you haven't done it, I would highly recommend it my friend.
Steve fantastic series you put together thoroughly enjoyed watching them all, made saturdays a bit brighter and could not have been in a nicer place, I love scotland and have done the nc500 twice now, well done good luck
Thanks fella really appreciate the positive comment, pleased you enjoyed them. Ride Safe bud.
Commando, Combination Of Mind Muscle And Nerves During Operations......
Was an honour to visit such a special memorial truly inspirational
Excellent series steve & Dek , looking forward to the next one !!!!! Cheers from NZ.
Thanks Chris pleased you enjoyed them my friend all the way from NZ wow.
@@Steve-Clark Looking forward to getting back to Alba for some more touring...On 2 wheels this time. Cheers and ride safe eh.
Enjoy Chris looks beautiful.
Another well made and entertaining video Steve Its been great series. Look forward to your normal videos. Cheers mate.
Thanks Paul appreciate the positive comment my friend, lots more planned.
Excellent trip again Steve. Thoroughly enjoyed it and planning to follow the same route shortly myself.
Glad you enjoyed it and you really must do it as it blows you away my friend
Thank you Gents. Excellent Series. Can’t wait for my turn. Best on TH-cam!
Cheers Mark pleased you enjoyed it fella, enjoy tour my friend and ride safe.
Great videos, thanks for that. If you ever do it again here's a few suggestions which I think will make it even better, either instead of the Inverness - Durness part or as well as.
Going anti-clockwise means the scenery gets better as you go, but doing it clockwise means the sun will be behind you during the best bits which improves the photos.
Take the NC500 clockwise from Fort William but, about 10 miles before The Kyle Of Lochalsh, turn left for the Glenelg Ferry (Summer Only). On Skye, head to Elgol then Glenbrittle (both cul-de-sacs but definitely worth it) and then Uig. From here it's across to Staffin passing the Quiraing. Back down to The Skye Bridge and on to Plockton. From there it's on to the NC500 again until a couple of miles beyond Ullapool, turn left towards Achiltibuie & The Summer Isles. About the end of the loch on your left take the road on the right to Lochinver. Back onto the NC now, but if ever I get the chance to do it again when I reach the A894 at Kylesku I'll just turn around and retrace my route (apart from the cul-de-sacs maybe). Another option would be to catch the ferry from Uig to The Western Isles, Benbecula - Barra - Harris & Lewis - Stornoway - Uig. If you like the thought of fabulous deserted beaches then you'll love it there. Ride safe.
Hey thanks Mr Jmr we were only discussing doing Scotland again but trying Skye for a change. After this great suggestion we are now looking at your exact route but don't like to retrace our steps so that part will have to be looked at. So thanks for your helpful info, its not gonna be next year as plans have been made but 2021 planning begins. Thanks so much my friend. Ride Safe.
I enjoyed that. Thanks.
The road down Loch Lomond and down the Great Glen are very seldom enjoyable, both are usually constipated with tourist traffic.
I would have started out via Beauly and used the old A9 as much as possible, as again the route from the Tore Roundabout to Tain is just horrible with traffic...maybe one day I'll do the NC500 as a whole route for myself!
Thanks for the tips Wallace appreciate that and you should Defo do the NC500 it's a great route as you know. Stay safe fella.
Excellent video. Liked the commentary and the additional screen content. You have given me some ideas for my future trips. Cheers.
Thanks for watching my friend and pleased you enjoyed them
Well done Steve another great Video keep'em coming fela in a bit.
Thanks Keith don't know when next trip will be now but lots to come in my plans.
Hi Steve come on pal what's next.
Very enjoyable to watch,thanks for making it👌👌
Thanks Craig pleased you enjoyed it mate.
Watched a few of these vids now, as me and my mate have done a lot of bike tours over the years. But your footage is by far the best mate. Well done. 1st rate in my opinion. 👍
Thanks John pleased you enjoyed the vids and really appreciate your positive comment on them. It just makes me want to make more when we can finally get touring again. Stay safe my friend.
Hi Steve, I have just discovered your videos and have been binge watching them. I have really enjoyed them, especially the NC 500 and the recent trip you and the lads did to Whitby and Oliver's Mount in Scarborough. I enjoy seeing you in places I have visited mixed up with places I haven't. I am in my 70's now and no longer ride, my back would let me know about if I tried to do more than a very few miles, but seeing you and your mates on the road is a real treat. I'm an old British Bike rider, started in the mid 60's and have mostly owned Triumph [the Meridian Twins] and BSA. Keep up the good work lads. Big Thank You. Tony
ps; simply love Scotland, I would love to be able to do the NC 500. Visited some of the places you went through a couple of years ago, not by bike sadly LOL
Hi Tony thanks for watching the video's my friend and pleased you enjoy them. I also appreciate you taking the time to comment. You would get on great with Mussy talking about the old bikes. Sorry to hear you dont ride anymore but you are very welcome to ride along with us in our video's and its even better if it brings back memories of places you have been to. Stay safe fella and thanks again.
@@Steve-Clark Thanks for the reply Steve, You just confirm what I always have said, the nicest people you will ever meet ride motorbikes
So true Tony so true. 👍
Cheers Steve, thats given me a great insite. as I am looking at doing the same in 2024, just taking a bit longer. written plenty of notes.
Pleased it's helped a little my friend and your in for a great trip ENJOY!!@
Really enjoyed watching all your videos over the last couple of weeks Steve. Keep them coming mate👍
Thanks Gordon appreciate that and pleased you enjoyed them my friend 👍
Hi Gordon got a notification on the Devon tour comment but didn't show in comments for some reason so replying through this one, modern day Compo ha ha will let Mussy know lol
@@Steve-Clark Hi Steve, it will be something I’m doing, I’ve never commented on anything on TH-cam before 😩😩 Just recently came back to biking and came across your videos whilst looking at bike reviews and haven’t stop watching them since 😂😂 Nice to see you popping through Kirton in Lindsey on one of the videos. Grew up there as a lad before moving to Scotland and really enjoy seeing the old place. Hopefully you and the lads will be out and about on your adventures again soon.
@@gogsfullerton4405 we all don't live very far from Kirton Lindsey at all Gordon and agree about out and about we have a tour of Wales this year all been well. Stay safe my friend.
Brilliant - thank you - could have let Dec have big bed just once though 😊😊
Yeah felt a bit sorry for him after NOT :-) Thanks for watching and pleased you enjoyed it Barrie.
Steve. That was fantastic. Enjoyed every minute of it. Well planned and executed. Great work.
Thanks Paddy pleased you enjoyed it mate and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Absolutely top draw,your one of the best vloggers on TH-cam,
camera and drone shots spot on,mind you with scenery like that
you cant go wrong,looking forward to the next trip ;-)
PS Loving the tunes too ;-)
Ride Safe Baza
Cheers Baza appreciate it when a viewer understands how much work goes into the editing. And thank you for the high praise. Ride Safe my friend.
Another Cack’n series Steve always look forward to them , if I had to pick a favourite road it would be the A87 although you can’t go wrong anywhere in Scotland.
