When in Scotland I would personally avoid A9. It's very boring with average speed cameras. If you are time constrain than fair enough but otherwise cutting through Cairngorms - A939, B974 and then A93 is more spectacular. All the best from Glasgow.
Must be a record, of all the great riding roads in Scotland you managed to miss all of them 😂 I hate the A82 especially going up the side of Loch Lomand, around Fort William and alongside side Loch Ness (doesnt leave much). And the A9, enough said, an absolutely awful road.
"Four seasons in a day." So very true for Scotland. Still, I love it to this very day. Still hope to return. Seems like you had tons of fun up there. Regarding that monster: you sure it can't appear and disappear at will? Good luck hunting him. Or as we say in Germany "Waidmanns Heil".
You got to be kidding!! I have been following your channel for a long time, and I was checking your new videos…. From the island of Skye !! I am not Scottish, I came here overlanding my motor home from northwest Spain, and I was yesterday in Forth William and Glencoe! I would like to have my CRF 300 Rally here, but not this time! Thanks for the video! That was great
Just been in Alba again September last year. The ferry from Rotterdam to Hull is my route of choice and riding/driving through the Yorshire Dales is already heaven on earth. I can handle the weather but not the 🦟 Alba is not a weekend trip for me so I really enjoyed watching your trip 💙💛🏁🤛🏼
Nice timing, we have been there last week. Still a bit too cold, down to 7 degrees in the rain. But still too beautiful to stay away. Nice vid as always...thx.
What a excellent video and channel, Me and my father always look forward to see your films. I recentually also started a youtube channel of my trips and works in the garage. Welcome in and look for the videos I put up for you. Take care, drive safe !
Hey bonny lad. Great to see Steve back on your video. Bianca is dying to go to loch ness. Something in your video made me remember something we did when we were bairns. Remember when we were 18 and got lost in your car. We ended up at the English/Scottish border and we ended up having a snowball fight around that big border rock.happy memories of happy times. Great video cupcake👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
omg i think i pass u on my ktm 1190 r as i live in pitlochry i saw u standing at the bp there. wow small world. so happy u stop buy. i love where i live. adventure biker hevan.
Hey, quick Question: In the states, we do a little hand wave, left hand down low, when we see another biker, but y'all (UK) ride on the other side of the street, so what do y'all do? Can't take your throttle hand off (unless you have cruise control on).
@@Motoeuro I get it, this length is 70 -200 at full frame ... Thanks man ! Keep your good work , i really like your videos and i wait to see more of KTM or whatever ! Cheers from Greece , a T7 lover !
Living and riding in the United Kingdom without rain gear is like living in Phoenix AZ without sunglasses - poor form sir! :poke: 109+F, dew point over 60 degrees; the bike is parked. If it's cold out I have heated gear, but cooling is whole 'nother problem......which my car solves brilliantly. :^) Dang! I wish the US had that color scheme for the Transalp - I'd probably get one. We get black. Very boring looking.

Yeah, its awesome but so cold!!! Ha ha!! Cheers :D
@@Motoeuro it really cold this year. i put puffy jackets on under my gear.
@@WrightWayAround Of course, I had a T shirt and that was it! Beer always helps.....😂
What’s a bit of rain ! 😂
Ha ha! Rain is okay if you remeber to take waterproofs and it's not frozen nails.....😂 It was June! Ha ha!
@@Motoeuro if you think back to last year it was gorgeous in June ( if you remember that far back) my age I rely on photos 😂😂
@@jimayre2967 Yeah, me too..... last week is a struggle at my age.....
have i missed something, or will you do a video explaining what happend to the Tuareg and how the KTM is?
My daughter is going to Glasgow for college, moving out from Costa Rica. I guess I won’t share this video to her…
Yeah, go on! She'll see the funny side..... or perhaps not. 😂

Usually a nod, flash of the lights or left hand wave 👍
Really enjoyed the journey. Which helmet & action camera do you use?
More please
Nice as always !
What jacket and pants are you wearing on this video ?
@@miguelibarra6411 hey 👋 it’s Dainese D Explorer but the 1st version. Pretty hard to find now. Cheers!
great vid ! but Scotland on a bike was removed from my bucket list 🤪
Yeah, I get that. On a sunny day it would be superb! Cheers :D
well , i see that you change bikes like tshirts !!
How is your experience with ktm until now?? Is the best from others you had have ?? its superior ?
Ha ha!!! Yeah. KTM is surprisingly good, lots of power a lively bike! Lots of fun! Is it forever? Probably not! You know me……😂
@@Motoeuro !!! hope enjoy it !!!! and one more question, what is your zoom lens that youre using at your videos ??
Panasonic 35-100 f2.8 👍
@@Motoeuro I get it, this length is 70 -200 at full frame ... Thanks man ! Keep your good work , i really like your videos and i wait to see more of KTM or whatever !
Cheers from Greece , a T7 lover !
@@kostasrestas yeah, spot on! Good focal length but it’s a pain on a tripod 50 metres away! Thanks 👏🙌

if we didn't ride in the rain we wouldn't bloody ride, never more true than in 24 on the british isles -
