Hi All,

Just posting here to say we are doing the NC500 this year from Friday 21st May - Monday 24th, staying in Lairg, centrally in the highlands, each night and covering segments throughout our trip, so we have a base each night.

Bit of a long shot but would keen to catch up with anyone on here along the way, and similarly if anyone has any tips and words of wisdom, both from a logistics and a MotoVlogging point of view, they would be much appreciated!

Thanks

John

Have a great trip, it is meant to be incredible. I loved riding in Scotland when I was based there.

You'd be surprised. I've done different directions on some roads where I live and it can be a different experience.


Well its 500mile bike trip and a 2.5 hour Ferry just to get to the starting point of the NC500 so one direction will do me for another while yet :D

Probably will go back and do it many years from now all being well!
