- A short video of one my favourite little runs in Scotland. Up through Glencoe, take the Corran Ferry then head to Arisaig for a cake and coffee. After that head back past the Glenfinnan Viaduct for a top biking day. Then after an overnight stop over come back via the A93 Old Military Road.
Featuring the most generic UA-cam safe music I could find! :-)

I'm a bit late getting here but your video of this trip is fantastic. Thanks.
Loved the video and the fantastic Scottish scenery. Would be great to see a Google map image of the whole route to show us exactly which roads to take though.👍
Really good vid, thanks
i never tire of touring the Highlands on my bike, it’s an amazing place to be, can’t wait to get back up there this Spring, thanks for sharing 👍
Fantastic roads
That was excellent, done that run myself hundreds of times and don't think I've enjoyed it as much as watching that vid. Only place I didn't recognise was the coffee stop besides all the boats ???
Thanks for that. Superb scenery!
Stunning scenery.
Very nice! Can’t wait for my motorcycle trip to Scotland in June 2023 😃
Hope it goes well 😀👍🏍
Passing those snowy roads, I felt the cold👍👍 Awesome ride and vlog, like allways!
yes, that's the part where I get goosebumps every year. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for the memories.
Encore, toujours un plaisir à regarder. SUPERBES paysages et quelles routes!!
Merci!
I’m new to your channel and new to both king I’m doing my DAS in July looking to buy my first bike as soon as I’ve passed
I’ll keep tabs on your channel I live in Scotland always
Like to see nice rides I could potentially go on
Thanks 🙏🏼
First of all I think you must be crazy! There’s snow! 🤣🤣 Or maybe it’s me who’s a wus!
Fantastic scenery. Love Scotland. I am there every year in winter for photographic holidays, normally on the west coast somewhere.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful, but chilly ride👍
Great video...the road to Glencoe from tyndrum is one of my all-time favourites 🏍️👍
Thanks for taking us along for the ride
Hello Fraser. I know you obviously love your GS Bemmers but have you ridden the R1250RT? As a two up tourer we find it superior to our GS. It is nibble, smooth, comfortable and fun to ride two up. The RT seems to give you more room between the rider and pillion. I have to check that she is still aboard at times 🙂. My wife won't ride pillion on the GS any more because she has been too spoilt by the RT. P.S but you need option the top box to give the pillion that back support. Central locking all the cases is also great. We recently did a trip from Munich covering the Grossglockner, Dolomites & Stelvio and a few other passes two up on a rental RT. It was packed with luggage and was not put to shame on the twisties. Regards John R Western Australia
Have had a look at the RT in the past big chunk of money but looks a great bike. 👍😀🏍
Beautifully captured and yet another enjoyable watch.
Good to have you back mate. Missing the pre covid tours we did in your back yard. Stunning scenery 😁😍
The most beautiful Country in the world for sure. In the Summer of 2012 my wife and I did a Honeymoon tour of the UK on our bikes, me on my Buell and the wife on her Royal Enfield. We had the most memorable wettest ride of any we've ever done and the memories of the Scottish West Coast will stay with us forever. We were told that the weather was perfect for "Foreigners" because we would be eaten alive by the midges if it was drier.😁
Those midges are a nightmare!
Beautiful scenery, I've never done those roads........ feel plan building!Thanks for the great video🤔!
First time watching your wee channel, my favourite part of the world, the road through Glencoe is just out of this world, always gives me goosebumps 👍 thanks for sharing this, will look out for more.
Nice to see rides like this. Rode the A93 for the first time last year and it immediately became one of my favourite roads.
Nice to see a different route from the norm, must try it sometime. I don't like Fort William either. Subbed.
Fantastic nice to see you back, looking forward to the holiday videos ❤👍
Most enjoyable, thank you for making & sharing. I must do an 'out of season' Scotland tour soon!
Always fun to watch your video's. Fantastic scenery!! Looking forward to the next one! Cheers.
Nice to see you out again look forward to see you both on your next tour🏍
Brilliant fraser I know some of that route but lost me at some bits also, fantastic love it around that area 👌thanks for sharing
Steven 👍
Another great video showcasing Scottish roads 👍🏻👏🏻
Another great video, thanks for sharing. Heading to Scotland on the bike from N.I. in May hopefully and can't wait.
I'd be in Scotland 5 or 6 times a year on the bike traveling from Northern Ireland. Scotland never fails to surprise me with its stunning beauty..
Scotland the brave.
Scotland the beautiful.
north of Ireland, fixed that for you🤩
@@roadwarrior8560 the North of Ireland would be Donegal... Fixed that for you.. 🤣🇬🇧🤣
@@Team-fabulous it's simple geography☺
@@roadwarrior8560 which you have failed in miserably 🤣🤣🤣.. Take a look on any map.. It'll say Northern Ireland or maybe you can't read either 🤣🇬🇧🇬🇧🤣
@@Team-fabulous north of Ireland sonny, ☘☘border is the Irish sea, where it always should have been, 32 counties in Ireland, if you don't like it go back where you came from, they don't want you either though.
Good stuff 👍 and looking forward to the 2022 bike trip video 🏍⛴️⛰️
Brilliant, looking forward to the tour video 👌
HI Lad, Beautiful video.. that ride from the corran ferry down to the castle is on my bucket list.. got to say.. early spring and no leaves in the sun looks spectacular. Loved it.. wish the castle was open for exploration.. :( . keep happy and more power to the channel. 💯❤❤🏍
Think the very is currently broken! Check before you set off 😀👍🏍
@@travelsonmymotorbike Thanks for the heads up :) .. I suppose me and rhe missus could do the Fort william loch coast route but to be honest the Ferry is A key part of the trip. So added the ferry to bookmarks and keeping my eye on the weather . Keep safe and hope you get another glorious day of summer this year.. :))))))
wow, those roads look Devine, whilst it looked very cold ......the ride looked well worth it, nice to see you back mate,
nice music and lovely scenery
Just when you thought it was safe... Helraser! Nice to see you back buddy. Lovely video as always.
🏍🤣👍
What a great run, thx for sharing.
Always tough to start the tour in the cold. I draw my limit at 6 degrees C. Thanks for sharing 🍻
Stunning, I must do this route when I'm up there in August.
Scotland awaits! 😀👍🏍
Wow this route looks stunning, nice one :)
Am always impressed as to how Scotland looks throughout the seasons.
Even places I've been before look so much different.
Thanks for sharing, I did the NC500, Skye and returned through Glencoe back in July. Things were a little more green then 😁
Another great video and spectacular scenery! Thanks for that! 👍😎
Can‘t wait to be there next spring! 🤩
Btw. we also ride during the winter, but never without heated gear. I love my heated vest from Macna. Basically, I wear a Shirt, the vest and my jacket. That combination is good for anything between 0 and 25 degrees. ☺️
Heated vests are the best invention ever!
Nice to see you on the road again, beautiful scenery and ride, thanks. if i may suggest for you to show us on a map first where you are going and much more dialogue on the places of interest it would be far more entertaining and educational. just wondered were is Helen ? hope to see her back soon, she gives it that extra watchability. looking forward to more of your adventures.
always great to see a new vid from you … it’s been way too long
Heading that way next June 2023 as part of a long trip from Lanark via Perth A93 then onto Dingwall overnight then to Dunnet Head before returning again to Dingwall for the night again before riding onto Ardnamurchan point ( overnight camp ) via A82 and Fort William for a part of my four points tour of UK mainland, I was thinking of using the ferry but the road up to Fort William is not that far and I plan for lunch there and fill up before returning to Lanark via the A82 Glencoe, Green Welly, Erskine bridge and M74 I hope the weather is better than this year when I did the NC500 on my 2022 Super Cub 125, this time I will be on my Rebel1100 so can go a bit quicker. BTW I am in Reading Berkshire so have to ride over 300 miles just to start from Lanark where my other half comes from, she will drive up with the dog and she can visit her mum who is in a care home in Lanark.
Hope the tour goes well for you... and the weather 😁🏍
Hi great material very nice filmed ;)
Thanks very much 👍🏻😁🏍
Great video mate. I love the glencoe area
Nice vlog mate always nice to see Scotland but would’ve been nice to no were you were or did we have to guess 😂
Route's in the description but it couldn't be simpler actually, head up through Glencoe, take the Corran ferry then head to Arisaig, very straightforward 👍🏍
Great route, I end up pushing my luck with the daylight as I can never resist the Kinlochleven loop when ever I'm up in that area, Corran ferry is a must do next time I'm up that way in the new year and the Tioram Castle old Shiel bridge dog leg will be an extra call, thanks for the inspiration to get back up there early new year
Kinlochleven's a nice wee run too 👍🏍😀
❤ it Roll on May, Thanks Fraser
Class as always.
You should setup a website with the GPX routes and charge a tenner for the download. You’ve always got some good routes on !
Such amazing roads, still on the bucket list to do the highlands someday. Can you give some routing for this poor Canadian who isn’t as familiar as the locals as to the roads/locations? Thanks for a great sampler as always.🏍🤓
Dead simple route that one! Check out the video description for more details 😀👍🏍
Another great video frazer
Nice part of the world, I've not been there in a while, after leaving Arisaig ure run back down Glencoe. Where was yer overnight stay and would you recommend the place.?
We actually headed to the east coast after Arisaig to Fortrose and stayed at The Anderson. Great food and beer place!
Great roads , know them well
Beautiful scenes! Was wondering what camera you use? I like the wide fov and picture clarity!
I use the GoPro 8. But I stabilise the footage afterwards but in camera. 👍🏻😀
@@travelsonmymotorbike awesome 👍 will be sure to get that, I had the GoPro 1 for £350 when it came out 😄 they've gotten a lot better. Selling my rsv r factory for a tourer and plan to go to Scotland 👌
great video, what time of year was this taken please?
October! Pretty fresh for October.
What was the castle at 6:49? I should know but can't place it.
Love that Rannoch road and many others around there. I've been up to watch the Scottish Six Days Trial many times and somehow that road always feels like I'm entering/leaving Scotland, even though the border is hours away to the south.
It could be Castle Tioram... but don't quote me on that! 😀👍
@@travelsonmymotorbike Thanks. Just done a bit of Googling and I think you're right. I've been round the Moidart a few times and out to Ardnamurchan lighthouse, but not up that particular road. Well, I guess that's another one to go on the list! 🙂
Safe riding!
I just can't believe how quiet the Rannoch Moor and Clencoe Road was. It's a bitch being last off the Corran ferry though.
Enjoyed Dude. Fabulous roads and Astounding scenery. What trips ahve you got planned for 2023?.
Not sure yet, half the fun is the planning 👍😀🏍
So back to the Europe tour - So - soon is soonish - Hmmm - ok but when is soonish 🤣🤣- keep it going Fraz…”🥃” did a winter run to Largs yesterday 4 deg - Brrrrr!
Good for you for getting out though. Bought a heated vest yet?
@@travelsonmymotorbike Nope - where do I get one - how much . Does it involve plugging things in ? More faffage - it’s my feet that gets cold - any hints ?! Thinking of a commodore cabin from Newcastle next June - what’s the name of that pub u go to in Bruges for beer ?? “🥃”…
@@mrwhiskym8818 Best way is to plug it in, all day heat and not depending on a rechargeable battery. Blazewear is where I got mine but wait for a sale! DFDS have put their prices up but I still booked for next year already, early booking is cheaper! Commodore on the way back too. And Cambrinus is the name of the Bruges bar, but have to say it's changed a bit. So to be honest probably wouldn't go back.
Didn’t notice the open toilet door but I did notice the wall paper😮😅
😂
Looks like a fun route. Do you have any suggestions on where to look to plan a similar trip around Scotland?
What are you looking for Anthony? Happy to help.
Back up there next year. Have you got the route please. Looks great
It's the simplest route actually, head up through Glencoe, take the Corran ferry then head to Arisaig, very straightforward 👍🏍
@@travelsonmymotorbike ok al have a look. Cheers. Normally head up thru glencoe then up thru Kinlochleven to fort william
Being a southern softy I wear my Gerbing heated gloves, full jacket liner and socks for about 6 months of the year. I think if I lived up in your neck of the woods I'd be using them all year round! 😬
When you went left off the ferry did you take a left onto a B road long there a bit? Also, how have you got your GoPro remote fixed on the bar? Great idea keeping it powered up from the Tank bag
Yeah there was a wee detour to the waters edge, there's an island castle thingy there. Gopro do a bar mount that's very handy. I have mine upside down on the bar 👍🏍
@@travelsonmymotorbike Cheers for that. You couldnt give me a link for that as Ebay is a minefield for GoPro accessories.
See you have some snow scottland , do they salt the roads?
Nasty sticky salty stuff they use these days.
Does anyone have a suggestion for Motorcycle rentals in Scotland? I'm there end of May into June and would love a few days on a bike while mine is back in Canada!
Highland Motorcycle Hire based in Inverness might be worth a look. 👍
If we’d only have known where you were. Do you have a definite reason for not divulging your route?
The route IS in the descripition and very simple...
@@travelsonmymotorbike Apologies. I didn’t see the subtitle with the description.
Where’s Helen ?
Too cold for H!
