Aberdeen, Scotland

Just thought I'd let anyone nearby know of a regular ride that we do here.

We meet every Sunday morning at 10am at the Asda car park in Garthdee and head off about 10:30 to where ever takes our fancy.

This isn't specifically for vloggers, all are welcome and if you get some good footage out of it all the better.

Cheers

I am very envious, I really miss my Scotland adventures, such beautiful surroundings with roads that are so much fun to ride and are in great condition..... Us Englanders are seriously deprived compared to the Scots for the twisties and under-volumed roads you have available to you!

What?! Not belittling Scotland, it's a beautiful place, but there's not really a shortage in England. Peak District, Yorkshire Dales, Yorkshire Moors, Lake District to name a few Northern ones. Then look at Wales.

When I was based in Faslane I'd disappear for hours into the forests on my KTM and Husqvarna and could probably just vanish forever in a fever of twists and turns and empty roads when I had my GSX-R 750..... Man, #nostalgic

Oh absolutely, but both are beyond my doorstep. I used to be based next to the most amazing biking roads in Scotland, I was utterly blessed. I have ridden around the UK at various times so not saying you are wrong, but the midlands are just as inaccessible to me as Arrochar is now!

I can ride 5 mins from anywhere in Aberdeen and be in the countryside, it's awesome. I do need to get over to the west coast more as there is some brilliant roads. Just have a look at the road to Applecross to see what I mean

This sunday there is 2 runs happening, the regular one at 10am out for a random ride but also one leaving at 7am and going to Edinburgh for MCN Scottish Motorcycle show.

Sadly I won't make either as I have DIY to do
