Thank you very much mate. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻

I bet it can get pretty dicey at times. The naked bike didn’t really bother me too much if I’m honest. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

I’ve not rode hardknott pass yet but it’s on the list. I would say the most challenging part of the NC500 would be the Applecross Pass but that wasn’t too bad if you’re ok with steep hairpins. I’ve got a video of the full thing on the channel if you want to see what it’s like 👍🏻. You’re going to love it though mates, there some awesome roads and even better views.

Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍🏻

Thank you kindly, very much appreciated 😊.

Very true Mike, the place is heaving in summer time. 😂 yeah, as good as it gets in spring time 👌🏻

Thank very much, we did, it was brilliant. Got a couple BSB trips planned for this season too!

Thanks for the lovely comment mate 👍🏻. Brilliant, Freddie has a fantastic channel, one of my inspirations 😁.

Thank you mate, much appreciated 👌🏻

Thanks mate 👍🏻👌🏻

Muito obrigado Sousa. Thank you very much 🙏🏻👍🏻

Thanks Paul!

😂 Most my new videos will be little to no music. I’ve got a method to try out getting all exhaust/engine with no wind noise. I’m keen to test it out 👍🏻

I would say 😁

Thank you ☺️ it would be, I’m going to do the trip again the opposite way round someday on my other bike so it’ll come in time 😁. Thanks again 👍🏻

Thanks mate 👍🏻. I used a 3 man tent with an inflatable mattress and sleeping bag as the essentials. If you check out my moto camping the BSB video I show a lot more of the camping gear in better detail too, like setting up the tent and camp and the cooking stove🙂. All the names of gear is listed in the description too 👍🏻

It’s a must ride, well worth the long journey up there. Just watch out for the midges in the summer time. They’re brutal. Many thanks, much appreciated. Always do, same to you 👌🏻👍🏻

It’s never too late David mate! I bet it was still pretty fun on 4 wheels mind.

@@GLoveMoto Actually it is too late. I'm 81 in February and broke a hip in October '01 It's taking a long time to heal, but I don't think I'll ever get back to the UK.

That’s rough mate, but what an awesome last trip to have taken with your old man. You’re welcome, thank you 👍🏻

Thanks Chris, yeah once or twice mate 😂. We’ve all been there pal, I remember it well. You’ll be dragging peg before you know it. Appreciate it mate 👍🏻

Thank you mate, much appreciated 👍🏻

Ahh man, some of the finest roads right on your door step, I’m jealous. Yeah me too, I’m hoping to get up to visit Skye this year when it starts getting a bit warmer. Thanks for watching Mike 👍🏻

@@GLoveMoto Skye is terrific,just make sure you visit early in the year before the midge’s come out because they will eat you alive, believe me I speak from personal experience, all the best

Oh I know mate, I made the mistake of doing the NC500 in august. Lesson learned, them midges are relentless haha. I’m thinking of going in early may so should be alright then I’d say. Thanks for the heads up though 👍🏻

Thanks Mike, much appreciated 😁. You’ll love it mate, it’s spectacular. I did go anticlockwise yes, I think it’s better as the scenery gets more impressive as the go. 😂 yeah they do seem to flap rather aggressively. Thanks for watching mate 👍🏻.

I’ve not called in there yet but it looks like a nice spot to stop. It is yeah, I usually use that road to get to or from the Hartside Pass. Thanks Mate, I appreciate it 👍🏻😁.

Thanks Robert 👍🏻

Thank you very much. Glad you liked it 👍🏻

Thank you for watching 😊👍🏻

Cheers Mike, yeah I felt sorry for those poor brake pads, must go through 3 sets a year 😂. Yeah I remember that too, the ruin was there for a little while before it got ripped down. Oh, sounds like a good one, noted. Cheers mate. 👍🏻

Do it mate, it’s a quality road.

This was actually filmed towards the end of September mate. It wasn’t even that warm back then either, December up there would horrible.

Hmm, that’s a tough one. I’d have to say I prefer west to east but there’s basically nothing in it. It’s just as good whichever way you take it.

It’s a pretty epic road. The whole route is actually tarmac, just in varying stages of disintegration. Absolutely fine to ride on though 👍🏻

Nice one, thanks Dave, I’ll have to give it a blast 👍🏻

It’s a proper corker of a road, super fun to ride. Yeah this is it, down side is the wind can affect cornering if it’s strong enough but the views are worth it. It is yeah but I’m sure something else will spring up, I read the plot was recently bought by a developer who’s planning a pretty impressive looking cafe. Hopefully work will start soon, it’d be nuts to have nothing up there, even with the waste land everyone still stops at the top so a nice spot to get a brew would be ideal. Thanks for watching mate, much appreciated 👍🏻

Thank you mate 😊. Aye It’s something alright

Thanks Carolyn 😊. Get it ticked off the list. It’s a cracking trip, unreal scenery, everyone is lovely. I’m looking forward to doing it again the other way round.

@@GLoveMoto I love too those views looked amazing 😍 im on a 250 atm may I Hit them roads next year 🏍

They really are, keeping eyes on the road can be a struggle at times 😂. Very nice 😊, more than enough power for those roads. Would you go camping too? Yes, make it happen 👍🏻

I say I would be stopping all the time to take in the view's , camping yeah why not

Thanks Nigel, much appreciated 👍🏻. Sounds like a belter of a honeymoon mate. Mm, perhaps, all the more reason to head back that way on the Bonnie I’d say 😁.

😂😂 thanks Doc. I was pretty tense at 1st but really rather enjoyed it once I got going. Brilliant, that’s what I was hoping. A clear sky day would have been quality but all the more reason to go do it again.

Thank you Mike, I’ve link the campsite websites that I used in the description of the videos if you’re planning to moto camp. Get it book mate, it’s absolutely unreal. Thank you pal, I was really pleased with how the drone stuff turned out, just wish it wasn’t so windy so I could have sent it up more often. Aye, beats listening to the awful wind noise mind 😂.

@@GLoveMoto cheers mate, not sure I'll be camping if my wife comes with me! Did you encounter many mosquitos? I do understand about the music...not that bad really and it did fit the footage.

Yeah unless you have a nice big tourer with panniers and what not it might be a bit of a squeeze to go two up. Just book nice and early then and you should be fine. Yes mate, they’re brutal. I went mid august which is apparently the worst time for them. I hear late spring or late summer is best. Thanks mate, that’s it, I just wanted something that went with the footage and would mask the wind noise. I’ve got a different method for capturing audio now so should be a trouble of a past now 😁

😂 white knuckle ride mate. Thanks a lot, much appreciated Simon 👍🏻.

Thank you mate, it was a quality trip 😁
