You should definitely be making more content like this, it also gives people from other countries, like me, the opportunity to get to know the roads of the UK
I think this is kinda where it stops for the two of them, being the nature of the why they chose the roads. But it would be cool/funny to see Hammond driving May’s favorite road or Clarkson’s favorite stretch.
Hammond describing memorizing the road then going through it in your mind to fall asleep, being able to pick whichever car you want, is something I didn't know I wanted.
Yes, absolutely more road trip content like this! These road trip videos harken back to the top gear and grand tour specials, and it’s a joy to watch. I think Richard was onto something when he suggested doing something like this with an older car. It would be interesting to see some of the other cars from the smallest cog do a road trip.
That was superb. I found it very reminiscent of the early Top Gear/Grand Tours specials with the boys messing about but also sharing the incredible scenery. More please! 🙂
We need many many more road trip videos like this. Probably the best thing that ever touched the internet! Richard is a legend and Mike was badass also
Supercharger noises are some of the best sounds the motoring world will ever know. I also agree with all the other comments about how we love this series. Well done!
Violins and supercharger noises was a unexpectedly pleasant mix, awesome montage for the Duke's pass section and overall amazing production quality and cinematic, props to the entire team
I feel genuinely blessed to have lived in Scotland for most of the past 25 years. The Dukes Pass looks stunning, but I don’t think anything will top the A93 on a sunny day for me. Was lucky enough to drive it most weeks visiting the fiancé as she was back then in Blairgowrie from my home in Lossiemouth. Via the Dava moors road too for extra grin factor
As soon as Mike mentioned Stirling, I knew it was going to be the Duke’s Pass. What a piece of road that is. I’ve driven it three times, once in the dark which was interesting but yes that for me stuck in my memory as being one of the best roads I’ve driven. The best part is the winding up the hill from Aberfoyle, but once you get past the Ben A’an car park then past Loch Venachar it becomes a bit rougher and narrower. Glad to see it gets the recognition!
Having family there thought "is that Aberfoyle?!" from the shots at 6:30 onwards, and then obviously realised they were going to dukes pass. Maybe I'm spoiled with having driven it too many times but don't feel like it's quite the revolutionary experience they describe here.. best part is definitely the first half up the hill past the visitor center etc as you say.
@@jamesmacd I did the NC500 over a week in September 2021, after being shut indoors since April of the previous year. The missus and I took our Octavia VRs, which comfortably chewed up the miles. It was absolutely one of the defining periods of my life. No joke. To have been stuck inside for the majority of the previous year, it was the perfect setting to reinvigorate yourself. With the restrictions still being quite tough, and many people still too scared to venture further than the local chippy, the entire route was very quiet, the only real pain being the occasional camper van doing 12mph up uphill in 2nd lol I think every car/driving enthusiast should have it on their bucket list, as it is genuinely one of the most beautiful and thrilling sections of road in the world.
@@robinhadley when it comes to tourists and camper vans yes, but backpacking and wild camping I feel is a bit different. I'm allowed to travel in my own country freely
I spent 25 years living and driving Perthshire roads like this one and there are many, many more that are worthy of a Drivetribe video, from the blast around loch Rannoch to the step back in time from Amulree to Kenmore via Glen Quaich. Even the more mainstream A822 from Crieff through the Sma' Glen is pretty dramatic. Or over the shoulder of Ben Lawers to Glen Lyon, something that is more terrifying done in a landrover than a mini as the extra height makes the drop offs seem that bit more dangerous :D
I grew up just West of Glasgow in a small village and learnt to drive on roads like this. So glad I had a Peugeot 205 as my first car and no cell phone. 30+ years later and living over 4,000 miles away now I still remember some of them. Thanks for making these videos, brought back to mind some fun times
Mike’s decisions to play bagpipes upon entering Scotland followed by provision of copious amounts of Irn Bru was magnificent to watch. More of these trip videos please!
I really enjoy the scenic roadtrips ive been a fan of it since they started doing little bits on Top Gear. Thank you for this series! All to short in my opinion, also great drone footage.
As someone who knows Richard Hammond since early Top Gear days I have to say I am stunned how connected to nature and how...whats the word...philosophical Hampster has become in his talking about the car as a instrument to connect people with places. And as someone from Germany who has visited all of Scandinavia and Iceland I have to say: This landscape, I got to see in the videos of drivetribe (and the guys from car throttle driving the nc 500) is absolutely stunning. I have to visit this magnificant country.
I'll be taking my 1932 Morris Minor Two-Seater from my home in the south Midlands to the Scottish Highlands towards the end of the month. Should take me two days to get north of Glasgow and into the Highlands. It's definitely going to be the most challenging road trip of my life so far, but I can't wait to hit the road and head north.
I remember the first I went to Dukes Pass! It was midnight, and I couldn't really see much in front, but the lovely notes of the 4GR singing away under the bonnet of my IS250 were just simply splendid. I'm so glad that it's only a 40 min journey from home, it's a very special road for me as well.
I visited the Dukes Pass twice today. Once with my sister and brother in law, a lovely scenic drive. I then went up, in a modded VW Golf GTI, driven by my nephew. He knows this road so well. What a day!
Homesick alert!! I was born and raised in Scotland but now live in Florida. I love videos like this for the scenery, the filming, the banter. Keep it up gents, would love to see far more in the future.
Awesome. I really enjoyed seeing where Hammond took us, but I was hoping Mike didn't disappoint with the Scottish selection. I was brought up in Gartmore, just 3 miles away from the Duke's Pass. I've many similar driving roads in my repertoire, but the Duke's Pass is my No1
Genuinely one my favourite viewing experiences of recent years, you're spot on with the dynamic, heartfelt banter, and refreshingly engaging content. I'd love to see more like this.
OH YESSSS !!!! is the clear (and probably obvious) answer to your question at the end ! you are really taking us on the journey WITH YOU. and for 20 minutes or so I completely forget I'm sitting at my desk watching a screen. just wonderful.
Absolutely love scotland roads, im both a super sport biker and hot hatch enthusuist so prefer these roads on a bike anyday. But only challenge with scotland is the weather. Its not as much fun in a bike when its wet or raining. If its in a car its more forgiving.
Watching this just makes me miss my time in Scotland even more. Took a trip up there last year in my m3 with a bunch of friends and had the best time ever.
Been back and forward on that road 100 times. I completely Agree with Mike, its a fabulous drivers road. love it. Had a Saxo VTR, back in the day, was great fun up there.
This video was brilliant, best one yet. As a Scottish expat living abroad it gave me goosebumps looking at the beautiful scenery we have on our door steps. I used to love driving in the highlands.
This is without a doubt one of the best roads I have ever drove on. The dukes pass is incredible and it literally test any drivers ability. Definitely a top 5 road for me. Love having roads like this out my back door.
Thank you Mike for not letting those three legend guys to not dissapear from our minds, eyes and hearts, as GT was came to an end. Will definitely drive this one on the way to Isly for some sip of Caol Ila. You're genuine. Keep doing this. Greatings from Latvia 🤜🤛
Brilliantly done, Mike! It was so joyful to watch you both doing this road trip. And to answer your question: yes, more like this pretty please. I really start to like those more intimate films here more than those big tgt-spacials. And I enjoy seeing you growing into an equal presenter to Hammond. And having you, I think Hammond also gained back a certain honesty and accessibility. Very very cool!
As for roads go, I remember the Stelvio. That was incredible. Richard, did you ever think a perfect country road could be that close to home, for you to drive and experience?? Great and gorgeous drive guys. Thanks.
Stelvio is extremely overrated 😀 Beautiful view, but the drive is nothing desirable. If you have the opportunity to do it sure, but don't expect any dream drive. Same goes for Furka. Both bumpy with campervans.
What a stunning series of videos. It captures what I love so dearly in car culture. The personal insight on why each road was special was beatiful and had goosbumps the whole time. More like this please!
@@joshuaspeedy4780 In Clarkson's defense he just seems like a GENUINELY busy man, and doesn't really have a whole lot of free time to contribute to a channel like this.
Mike's absoutly right when he says it's really a tarmac rally. Did this on the bike last year on my trip to Scotland, great bends but the tarmac is horrendous :P
Definitely MORE contents like this,pretty PLEASE!!! As the bond between you and Richard, is definitely developing into something special... loving the chilled, personal attributes to the vlog, roads, person. Annnnd the views...Wow the views!!!
I would say Hammond has suddenly become a philosopher but its not sudden its been gradual coming out over the last year or so. Always my favourite of the old trio. This new turn to poetic experience explanation has shot him miles ahead of the other 2.
This road and scenery reminds me of my home on the Oregon coast in the US. Lots of similar roads and scenery in parts. I’m sure many other places fit that as well. Always nice to know where beautiful roads are.
That was an amazing 2 parter across 2 stunning roads, totally not jealous at all. Taking any car along either would be simply outstanding and those views, just wow.
This video brought back so many memories for me! And it’s amazing that we have the same favourite road back home in Scotland. I drove this road the day after past my driving test when I was 17!
Hammond talks about motoring skills, and that's what it's all about, for me anyway. Getting from point A to B in an appliance of a vehicle is fine, but there's a sense of joy and pride in driving well and doing so on a fabulous road in an enjoyable car.
Always a favourite road of mine since a late teen having grown up in the area many many years ago. A great variety of corners, cambers, rises & dips, not to mention the scenery. Probably more suited to a smaller, lighter footed car and unfortunately rarely as traffic free, especially on spring weekends or in the summer tourist season. Final note; hate to be the pedant here but as Mike was talking about Loch Venachar the footage was showing Loch Achray - although in the drone shot Loch Venachar can be seen in the distance.
I'd love to see you do another road trip anywhere, but next time in a Ford Focus RS. The A940 is very pretty and very special driving road between Grantown-on Spey and Forres. I love Scotland btw.
Yes, please do more of this content! Cars are amazing. Driving them is amazing. And now I want to go for a drive myself. And maybe visit this part of Scotland one day.
so in my teens i passed my motorbike licence, and then into my 20s, i lived near stirling, i would go for a ride all the way up to fort william, just for the fun of it almost every second saturday. never knew that road was there. then some years later a customer of my Dads business lived on that road, so i have driven the van down the top end of that road and even in a van, really enjoyed it. i actually thought you were going to say the Glen Coe road to fort william, but now i live in Dundee, im thinking this summer of taking the motorbike over for the experience of that road. love the 2 part episode, would be cool to see more. ask the crew what their fav road is and you 2 go drive it (both drive tribe crew and smallest cog crew).
Ron here, from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. (Born and raised in Nova Scotia aka. New Scotland) I can definitely attest to the virtues of Shell Premium V-Power fuel. (FYI I am NOT being paid by Shell… I WISH!!) Years ago I bought my first Toyota Corolla, I had that car for 13 years, hey it’s a Toyota. Never had any problems with it outside of regular maintenance, other than parts wearing out as the car got closer to 300,000 Km. At around year 10 the eng started to feel quite sluggish and I thought for sure it was at the end. However, a friend of mine told me to watch a RUclips video by Scottie Kilmer (an honest mechanic) who talked about the virtues of Shell Premium V-Power gasoline (Petrol) on high mileage engines. I decided to try it and after just two tank fulls of the stuff my engine was running like new!! When I finally sold my Corolla after 13 years (and it sold rather quickly) it was still running like a clock at 340,000 Km. (And no, I’m not being paid by Toyota either. 😢) No word of lie, that Shell V-Power fuel cleaned my poor little old Corolla out like an entire box of Ex-Lax!!! 😂👍🏼 BTW I LOVE bagpipe music, grew up with it in Nova Scotia.
I love this! It’s been my favourite driving road since I was 17/18 too. Literally had an early finish at work the other day and took my m140i up for a blast it’s phenomenal
Loved both of those roads and have been added to my list of roads I need to drive but I know my own favourite road would be the A483 in Wales mainly cos of a few things 1 the views 2 the very tight corners with cliff edge drops on some of them and lastly cos its the road that takes me to see my grandparents in South west Wales

Me too, the secret is now out…😢
Thank you Mike for not letting those three legend guys to not dissapear from our minds, eyes and hearts, as GT was came to an end.

Beautiful view, but the drive is nothing desirable. If you have the opportunity to do it sure, but don't expect any dream drive.
Same goes for Furka.
Both bumpy with campervans.
You guys cannot stop doing these videos. Would love to see Mike in the grand tour in the future.
I grew up a couple of villages away from Aberfoyle and have known this road for years - it's a cracking drive.

Years ago I bought my first Toyota Corolla, I had that car for 13 years, hey it’s a Toyota.
Never had any problems with it outside of regular maintenance, other than parts wearing out as the car got closer to 300,000 Km.
At around year 10 the eng started to feel quite sluggish and I thought for sure it was at the end. However, a friend of mine told me to watch a RUclips video by Scottie Kilmer (an honest mechanic) who talked about the virtues of Shell Premium V-Power gasoline (Petrol) on high mileage engines.
I decided to try it and after just two tank fulls of the stuff my engine was running like new!!
When I finally sold my Corolla after 13 years (and it sold rather quickly) it was still running like a clock at 340,000 Km.
(And no, I’m not being paid by Toyota either. 😢)
No word of lie, that Shell V-Power fuel cleaned my poor little old Corolla out like an entire box of Ex-Lax!!! 😂👍🏼
BTW I LOVE bagpipe music, grew up with it in Nova Scotia.
Utterly superb. More road trip content between you two! Mike seems so much more at ease around Richard as well.
I love this! It’s been my favourite driving road since I was 17/18 too. Literally had an early finish at work the other day and took my m140i up for a blast it’s phenomenal
both of the videos were a great watch. really enjoyed the sceneries. would love to drive down these roads one day
This is some of the best content in a long while. More of this please.
I grew up going camping and fishing around that area and been driving it since i was 17. Such an amazing road, and yes its also my favourite !
Loved both of those roads and have been added to my list of roads I need to drive but I know my own favourite road would be the A483 in Wales mainly cos of a few things 1 the views 2 the very tight corners with cliff edge drops on some of them and lastly cos its the road that takes me to see my grandparents in South west Wales
Yes please more road trips you two are great together
Scenery is great also
Rode this road today on my motorbike. Absolutey unreal! Has never heard of them discover it’s only an hour away. I’ll be back!
The Mennock and Dalveen passes in Dumfries are wonderful roads, just over the border as well. Worth a visit!
Wow! The Scottish Highlands are stunning!
