Title: Video of our wee Jaunt to Ullapool
Post by: Dmcfadyen on September 04, 2012, 08:36:16 PM
Hi Folks, thought I'd post a video of a trip we made last year to Applecross and then Skye. We are heading to Durness this Friday and I dug this out to get me in the mood for our next trip. Enjoy

Donald

We are just back form a weekend to Durness. I have never been north of Ullapool and I was amazed at the natural beauty that the north west has to offer. We went up the A9 then out to Ullapool, headed to Lochinver and then up to Durness. We were blessed with decent weather too. I took a picture of my bike with Stac Pollaidh in the background. What a place. Lots of single track but it's on good condition as you head out towards Lochinver

Old Coney, thanks for sorting the photo. We will be going back to the Ullapool area next April. We are based in West Lothian just outside Edinburgh and normally do an ovenrnight thing in April and one in September.  I'll publish our April one in about late Jan and maybe a crowd of GTR's can join us.

Thanks, Donald

PS I'm well pleased with the new GIVI top box, made things much easier on the last trip.

Hi Donald, video looks great, what camcorder did you use?

Hi Shaggs, my mate used an x170 by drift innovations. He tells me the camera has now been uptaed to HD. He has loads of videos of his travels on his bike home and abroad. He has most of the well known mountain passes in France and places like that. View the video again and click on his profile for the rest

Cheers, Donald
