    Transalp tour of Scotland with my four bros

    Just got back online, been to Scotland with my four brothers on four Transalps 1200 miles. Just a great trip, taking in Arran, Skye fort Bill and the top of the north coast, Enjoy the Video

    By the way welcome to the forum.

    Hope you had better weather than I did on a recent 6 day 1700 mile tour of Scotland. Rained EVERY day! Still fantastic though - and the rain kept the midges away. Great roads, awesome scenery and the right to camp rough on open land. What a great country - but don't tell everybody. M6 is the only mind numbing hassle involved for those of us in the far south.

    You are a very lucky guy to have four brothers with the same interests - adventure and being together. And also, a great video. Ride safe.

    Anybody taking a trip to Scotland especially the west coast should put in an order with AVON (not the tyre co.) for some "skin so soft" moisturiser spray oil as it works a treat keeping the midges away !! I use it when cycling and never get bothered with them and ive heard even the SAS guys use it when on training exercises in Scotland.
