  • Here Is the Full edit of the film that Kirk watson of perfect veiw productions filmed and edited for us late 2015, the film has been shown at the Edinburgh Mountain Film Festival and the Aviemore Adventure Film Festival.
    The film is a journey by me and Lee Craigie (www.Leecraigie.com)to the most North westerly point on the UK mainland 'Cape Wrath' we use Fatbikes and Packrafts to access the rugged terrain and rough seas, with stunning Drone shots this film really shows off Scotland at its best, It's a cool adventure to boot! a Mountainbike adventure with a twist.

    Great film. I once crossed the restricted area during a live exercise - the sentry said I had 30 minutes to get across during a pause in the firing - I thought that was plenty and went for it. Got a front blow-out at the bottom of the first hill, never changed a tube so quickly in my life.

    Absolutely phenomenal filming, spectacular music choice, makes me wanna get out there and feel the wind and the rain.

    Love this! Packrafting timing the tides, fast fatbiking downhill along epic cliffs, and epic commentary, thank you!

    Allen Bordoley. Beautifully filmed and the haunting beauty of Cape Wrath and the Sea. The background music was just right. It captured everything about being in wild country and in canoeing. .

    Great film, and the sound track was just right for it. Had me sucking my teeth as they rode along the cliff tops. :)

    Excellent Adventure! Thanks for the effort to create this!! My friends and I typically mountain bike down the west highland way each year, north to south these day.. Since seeing this we had this great idea to get our rafts sent to Inversnaid Hotel and then when we get there by bikes, inflate them and paddle them to Balmaha down Loch Lomond to finish the ride into Milngavie.. Are we over-simplifying anything? :) You guys made it look so seamless! :)

    you guys are awesome!! I'm taking my girlfriend on her first camping trip this weekend to wales. Will hopefully get her comfortable idea of pack-rafting camping and these fatbikes at some point.. Dreaming about it!! Thanks for the video.. looks like you've fused so many things perfectly.. Credit to your camera guy.. Love that last shot with the three of you paddling.. I was thinking the whole way through - how the hell did they get that shot? to think it was all done with the three of you.. very impressive. Imagined a crew of around ten at least..

    Nice vid, bit too much product placement/ company logo shots, but if they let you try their stuff for a bit of advertising, in exchange for getting to do stuff like this, I can see how you'd go for it, most people who'd be watching stuff like this would know what gear you're using from already liking it, wanting it when funds allow, etc, the locations and scenery come across as the main star of the show :-)

    Nice video. Beautiful scenery.
    What model Alpacka rafts are these?
    What bikes are you using and wheel size? I’m wondering how big the wheels and tyres can be to avoid paddle strike and to not block too much vision.
