Great roads and nice weather too

[singlespeed]

We have had some great weather over the weekend, so on Monday we went for a drive around one of my favourite loops. Yesterday, I did the loop in reverse and captured some video to show what many of you are missing. The unfortunate consequence of filming was having to be sensible as I don't fancy incriminating myself :lol: However, watch the scenery and you will see you don't need to drive fast to enjoy these roads :mrgreen:

Before dropping down to the bridge, you can see the road in the distance on the far side of the valley

Up the North side, past the ski center then down the more open moorland Southern side. Excellent bacon butty stop a few miles further on

God Damn you Singlespeed beat me to it again been trying to get mine up on youtube and they've rejected it for being too long, now I have to edit (again) to get it down to under 15 mins......

I hope it was of you driving mate :lol:

Looks like a nice area! If I had a camera I'd try get some of the scenery over here, it's stunning! Awesome roads to go with it too

It was only my N8 phone, so not brilliant quality. Easily strapped to the headrest with a velcro strap around the headrest and a MF cloth rolled up under it to protect the headreast and allow some positioning



Lol Mr Ben... this could have been 3 hours long for the whole drive, so just some highlites

I'm more impressed that the sun was out in Scotland!!! haha

They are some lovely looking driving roads. I took the Gordini down to Eastbourne the other day, avoided the motorway so took the A/B roads. Not a pot hole in sight and some great corners.

Had fun driving it even taking it easy in the car.

the weather has been good for the past month.

The potholes are getting fixed round here too. What they are like down south, I should find out tomorrow with a trip to Dunoon. Question is, which route to take if i go?
