    Great video James. I did them in reverse of your route and my wife dropped me below the unnamed top, south on Sgurr an Fhuaraill. So I went over the hills, including the sisters ridge as well, before dropping down to Shiel Bridge where my wife picked me up. Unbeknown to me as I had disappeared up the hill near Cluanie, my wife had accidentally reversed the car into the drainage ditch at the side of the lay-by!
    Fortunately a passerby helped her get the car out. Fantastic hills and brilliant that you had the Brocken Spectre! Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks pal, aye the hills are fantastic Stevie, Appreciated the views so much more on this one as I haven’t had them on my previous tops..
      The drone gives you a great perspective, can be a faff setting it up and flying it but it’s usually worth it!

    I loved the Brother's Ridge when I did it, although the wind certainly made it quite brutal towards the end! Kintail just has it all, definitely agree with you on it being one of the most scenic areas of Scotland. Great video as always!

      😂 Think I gave the Aonach Eagach 10/10 also.. I think it rated so high due to the unexpected conditions 😂
      Thats true its very mild for this time of year, but still windy and rainy, hopefully we get a decent winter though 😁

      Thanks Glen, it was a fantastic day this one.. hadn’t been out for a while before it so really enjoyed it 😁 yes sometimes worry about that but been fine so far, I usually lock it to a tree or in this case a roadsign, my bike luckily isn’t too expensive so that makes me worry a bit less 😁

    Hello James! Nice to see you, mate - and full marks too! Has that ever occurred before? 'Tell you what I keep meaning to ask - what are your trousers made of? The coloured parts look really soft and comfortable. Oilskin maybe?

      Hi Paul 😁 It has happened once before! On the Aonach Eagach in Glencoe, this one get some extra marks for the conditions at this time of year 😂
      Not 100% sure but they are stretchy, think they are the Revolution Race GP Pro trousers 😁
