    I laugh at your comments about rain in Scotland when England gets far more flooding than Scotland. Just look at the massive floods going on in England for the last week.

    Mr. Fish! I'm planning to upgrade my bike from Crf Rally. How do u feel about your NX500? Do u think you'll upgrade to another in the next year/s? I'm thinking about Aprilia Tuareg 660 but I love Honda so I'll look for transalp but if you feel like the NX500 Is more than enough then I'll buy the NX for my next bike. 😄

    We went over that same pass in our camper a week later on beautiful sunshine & even stopped in the same layby for pictures. We were heading from forfar to Moray Firth. Absolutely love Scotland. Done it many times on bikes. Next year I'm taking the bike again. We also stopped at Glenlivet.🐟✊🏻

    That's my back yard! Loving that you enjoy Scotland, listening to your commentary makes me think I take it for granted a little, I'll appreciate what I have a little more after that. That section of the 93 from Blairgowrie to Ballater is a regular weekend run. Lots more bonny roads around here though. Great vid, great job.

    👍 love it , I used to drive (car ) to Glenshee A93 , most winter weekends in the early 1980's to go skiing 😁 , cracking road . Also ridden it many times , my perfect highland bike was the Yamaha TDM900 , 85hp, not too heavy , tall roader. Living in Suffolk now and have to get back home occasionally for the scenery and roads.

If you're ever up this way again, give me a shout I could show you some of the other wee roads around here that are quite fun. Wee technical twist roads are the order of the day up here. Have fun and ride safe.
