Your mate who’s wife just had a baby I bought a pair of cloth panniers from him a few years ago they were black frank Thomas ones he’s a canny lad And well done doing the NC500 lads 👍🏻👌🏻
Did that stuff in my teens/early twenties on a Trident. You look better organised, funded & equipped. At 66y/o, I really enjoyed that from the comfort of my keyboard
Well done guys, we've done it three times now and it's brilliant every time, not as brave as yourselves 💪 we stayed in hotels last time we done it someone suggested doing it anti clockwise which makes sense for the scenery, looking forward to your next episode, what a very understanding sister you've got 🎉
We thought exactly the same after finishing, anti clockwise might totally change the trip which would be brilliant. We'd like to try adding in Mull and Islay too. Scotland is just fantastic 👍
If you think it's fun on a bike it's even more interesting in a truck or in a helicopter! Mind you, getting trucks over there was a bit of a struggle years ago before the dug out more rock at the bottom hairpin.
@@SolitaryBear The Bond pilots on the BUTEC contract had a party trick for VIP visitors that I witnessed a couple of times. They would fly at 50 feet across the top and when they shot over the edge above the hairpins at 140 knots the visual impact as the corrie opened out was phenomenal! I had an Admiral's wife sitting next to me on one of those occasions and was as surprised by her grabbing my thigh as she was by the terrain! 🤣🤣🤣
@@captainwin6333 I can't imagine trying to, or even wanting to speed on a road like that. We just took our time and enjoyed it. If you speed on there and get it wrong... Goodnight and God bless 👋
I love watch bikers travel around Scotland . 🏴 x

He's not bad. Although, he sold his bike so I hate him a little bit at the moment, obviously until he gets a new one 😂 Appreciate it mate.

@@branthurley2285 appreciate it buddy. It's an epic road. Ever thought about getting another Trident and reliving it?

@@jimf671 Jesus that is good going in a truck. Fair play mate. And helicopter, you've got to explain that part? 👍

@@jimf671 what an amazing memory, that's fantastic mate 👍
Average speed cameras are coming to this route due to people speeding, crashes etc. Was hearing about it on the news today.

It’s a cash grab just like the tourists tax it’s because they are a 💩 government who are incompetent so tax the hell out us to pay for their mistakes.
Don't do Wales, the speed limit is only 20mph not 93!
@@weebolddavy 93? My clock is set to Kmph 😬
