    Nice one, Frank. I enjoy seeing wind farms. Your video reminds me of my drives through Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico...many huge wind farms.

      ​@@hikingwithfrank315Yes. Some of the small rural areas produce much more electricity than they use. They sell the surplus to surrounding areas.

    Nice one. The words "get the drone out" seems to conjure rain instantly, even on the clearest of days.

    Just sat down to eat my dinner and flicked on UA-cam and this video was waiting for me.😂😂😂
    Looks a cracking bike Frank.
    I went to Decathlon this afternoon to ask a few questions and get sized up for hiring their E Mountain bike as there's no way i want to go back into Glen Affric for the failed attempt on the 3 at the hostel as i could only manage 1 the last time.I felt ur pain when u were in there for the same reason and you couldn't continue.The windfarm is some place.Was up there with the bike during lockdown......shhh🤫🤫🤫🤣👍

      Cheers Andy, it’s a belter and I love it. I’ve still got a few munros where this bike will make it a lot easier esp that one like you say down to the Glen Affric hostel.
      How much do they charge for rental Andy.? You got the hostel booked for Affric.?

      @AndyOB 4 місяці тому

      @hikingwithfrank315 If I pick the bike up say on a Friday at 5pm I don't need to have it back till 5pm Sunday and it will cost £90 which is pretty reasonable I think.I Only have this Affric one and one more to A'Mhaigdean via Poolewe left with a bike.Not using the hostel Frank.Hoping to go in/out on the same day like I was trying the last time.😀👍

      @hikingwithfrank315  4 місяці тому

      Thanks, it’s a cracker of a bike, I absolutely love it. It’s got 4 modes but I find you only really need the first 2 modes and I can get on average 60miles on a full charge.🚴🏽👍
