To me, this is what biking is all about. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your trip. Your editing was brilliant but I must also mention your choice of music to accompany... absolutely spot on and it really makes for an enjoyable watch. Thank you and well done đ
Thank you very much. đ
I travelled from Belfast to Balmoral on Friday by motorcycle to lay flowers for our wonderful Queen.
Hi, this was just days before she passed, we had no idea what was to come. đ„ș
Well done what a lovely thing to do
GSTK
@@ctm1602 thank you. It was quite emotional, there was plenty of people gathered paying their respects
That's amazing timing, not knowing you were about to witness history in the making, a sad but proud day knowing what we have lost.
Thanks again Charlie, you really are a great sort
Thanks for staying following Geoff. đ
Congratulations on getting to your brothers, well done, massive mental victory that one. I never grow tired of stunning Scottish scenery.
Thank you David. đ
My mother is a Scot, brought up in Glasgow but her father hails from Aberdeen, never been there, she moved to England in her teens then met my dad, the rest is history as they say. Loved your brothers old BSA, my first bike while in college a 125 BSA, but short lived as I rode it home during holidays and my mum told my father to give me enough money to buy four wheels, she probably saved my life. So my return to biking at 70 is a long held dream. Loved your video, keep em coming, your very professional.
Thank you Roger. đ
Some Hairy Cow! Very entertaining video with great soundtrack.
This is so nice movie you made. I am from Germany Bavaria and i was with my Mototbike in 1987 in Scotland. I never forget this wonderful Journey. Thanks a lot for. I remeber so many nice Impressions. I love Scotland. Lovley Greetings from Bavaria.
Thank you đ
Scotland is amazing. And I'm sure we all react like a child when we see a hairy cow. :D
Thought it was just me. đ
Good day to you!
I am a HONDA Cross Cub senior rider from Japan.
Enjoying camping and touring and upload video.
This is so nice adventure video!
Awesome!
Have a nice day my friend!
Thank you! đ
Yup music has been great too!
Gorgeous scenery, loved the bimbling music and the AJS (I have a Model 8). The Meteor is holding up very well and so are you.
The pic at start of vid.is me every day! Hangover need coffee. Great vid.luv ya.Follow the Eagle(whatever that means.)
Good video ! Scotland is addictively beautiful. Just been there, going back next year. You donât need a GS to have fun on a motorbike, as you show. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thank you Hans, the 350 was perfect. đ
Wonderful country. I've been there in june this year but at the west coast mostly.Thanks for taking me along. And by the way. I love tradional scottish breakfast. Great
thank you for the video . what a great night i have had watching xxx
Thank you đ
Good to see your brothers bike collection. Iâm really enjoying your trip and looking forward to seeing how you faired on the return leg.
Thank you Mario. ,đ
Nice tour day! The leftside driving gives me the crinch sometimes, - especially in roundabouts đŹđŹđ.
Greetings from Germany đ
Love your Content đ
Great...cant wait for the trip to Dakar
Now there's an idea....đ
I screamed with you at the beginning with that white suv pulling out at least you had some dry weather in this one your brothers bike very nice đđđ
BSA Bantam, My dad had one in the shed, i used to ride it up and down the road. Don't tell him.
The old Brit bike definitely a knack is required to start them. Great video content.
Thanks again Ant. đ
Great stuff, you made it to Dunnottar Castle. I have stopped in that "motorcycle parking stop" many a time.
Great video and music đ
Loving this series Charlie đ
Nice!
Very nice â€
"Very pretty" ...Burn's monument,Mauchline (after poet,Rabbie Burns, who's grandfather is one on my ancestors)... Aunt's house on the left, cousin Raymond's on the right there too :)
Your editing is jumping around...
P.S; I know a guy who has a Don motorcycle, 1 of 2 manufactured in Aberdeen... named after the river in town! One for your brother!
I think your videos are brilliant.. I would love to do something like this on my meteor but I'm nearly 55 and I ache for days after around 30 miles. Keep up the great work, you are brilliant đ

Gradually increase the length of your rides and try to ride as often as possible. Find a local bike meet and ride to it, they're usually midweek, Wednesday or Thursday, you'll soon get to hear about planned rideouts and you can just tag along. If you only ride on a Sunday 30 miles will probably seem like a long ride but if you can get out 2 or 3 times a week your body will soon get used to it and before you know it a 300 mile run will be a piece of cake!
@@sambrooks7862 thanks. My job involves unsocial hours and I don't know when my next day off will be. I can't plan ahead unfortunately.
@@tamar5261 I know how you feel, I spent the best part of 30 years working away from home, there were times when I forgot what a bike looked like, take it from an old hand (57 lol) you need to make time for yourself or one day soon your bike will be on eBay and you'll wonder why you bought it in the first place.
Hi Tamar, I do appreciate that is a nightmare for you. When you get tired of the 30 miles around you, maybe trailer the bike somewhere and explore other areas? đ
Ah. Your doing well , thatâs an amazing journey youâve done, be proud of yourself because itâs very tiring and tough đ
Thank you. đ
Brilliant video again,I love the music especially stream so relaxing canât wait for the next one thanks for sharing đ
these are great videos
Thank you. đ
That hairy cow was definitely a hairy bull! đđ. Lovely vid! Yer bro has a cracking bike!
Oh he was indeed. đ€Ł
One of the best Fish and Chip shops in Britain is in Arbroath harbour . Visited many times parked by the sea wall. Loved the video keep up the good work !!!
That throttle cruise control looks handy, been thinking about one for ages to give the right hand a break now and again. I tend to get pins and needles after a while and it would allow me to flex the hand and get the circulation going.
It's a bit pricey, but I do recommend it. đ
Proper job.
Hello something tells you're not in the morningđ very nice vidĂ©o with beautiful machines and a wonderful landscape,all with humor and adequate music...and all this with a beer full of foamđâïžđšđ”
Hi Alain, I am not a morning person at all. đ€Ł
Bravo Bravo. Beautiful drone footage reminded me of a quilt. Fantastic music. I always look forward to seeing your videos. Keep it up.
Thank you Blaine. đ
Beautiful country and a nice motorcycle collection.
It was such a lovely few days. đ
Great musical interludes...!
Beautiful countryside. Loved the drone footage. My grandparents came from north of Aberdeen. Elgin area I believe. Great series.
Thanks for posting and allowing us to share the adventure with you!
The Tay Road Bridge, straight into my home town. That big hill you see ahead is The Law, an extinct volcano. Fantastic view from the top. Lovely video btw!
Thank you John, I had no idea! đ
I spent 4 hours hours up n down the east coast of Ireland on my T120, got in to see what is on the tube, and your channel popped up, love it
Thank you Eric. đ
Glad you made it, nice video very well done,have a safe trip south!
Thank you, that's still to come! đ
Brilliant videos, well done, you'll remember this trip forever đ.
I absolutely will. đ
Greetings from down under. Wow, motorbikes, great roads, breathtaking scenery. You,ve taken me to my happy place. The last piece of aerial footage brought me to tears...literally. Thankyou.
You're welcome Keith, glad you're enjoying the series. đ
Brilliant â€
Oh for the joys of the electric start button on bikes now đ Enjoyable video RDR đ
Great trip so fare stay safe
A friend of mine - Ian has a 650 AJ he is so light when he stands on the kickstart nothing happens - Glad your enjoying it - stay safe
Oh Blimey! đ
Firstly lâd like to thank you for your day to day job.
Iâve been following you on your journey so far and didnât realise the enormity of it till recently, lâve been riding since l was 17 but never abroad till last weekend a trip to Paris France via Newhaven - Dieppe ferry, arriving 9:30 + one hour France time so 10:30 in the evening then a 3 hour journey in the dark pouring with rain and driving on the wrong side of the road! An interesting journey to say the least, so l can now realise your feelings on your journey.
Well done you.
Thank you Gary. Maybe my day job is what makes me more resilient to all sorts of inclement weather, stressful situations and overcoming challenges, who knows! There will be more to come on my channel that's for sure. đ
Can't remember you packing a drone on the bike I couldn't have been paying attention đ€ like the video's, hat off to you if you've only been riding 6 months! I've never got to Scotland as yet but one day?đ
My brothers drone. I'm still learning. đ
Great to watch. Thanks for sharing. Like your sense of humour too.
Thanks Anthony. đ
20 yrs off shore the granite city bated it youngen x
It's years since I rode a bike around Scotland.Thanks for reminding me of what I miss. That throttle lock is a good gadget and I shall check it out. Stay safe.
good luck on your journey sister ! cheers from a colleague riding in Lagos Nigeria
Blimey! That's a long way away! đ
love ya vids charly , tell ya brother his AJS is awesome , keep em coming đ long live the King
Brilliant keep it up lovely to see you doing your own thing and so well thanks
Thanks Ronnie. đ
Brilliant, well done.
i am sure your brother is very proud of you, i would be with my sister
Another great video - well done. Makes me want to go out and learn to ride a bike!
You should! đ
Yay not watched yet saving for later . Hope your well in your mind ride safe âșïž
Well what a pleasure to watch đđđ
Thank you. đ
Your musical choices are outstanding.
Thank you.
Hi! I've watched your videos and you really got steel balls! I do ride since I was 14 (now 36) and I moved to Spain with my Meteor, I thought I'd use the summer to make motovlogs around Spain but workload was so huge that I lost motivation to ride even in weekends. You are an example to all of us. This weekend I'll might give it a try. Thank you! Keep it up!
Thank you Read, I hope it does give you the encouragement to get out there and do it! đ
Really enjoying your 'Cheeky Music . Great videos.
Thank you. đ
How great that must feel, not only looking at amazing scenery but being able to do it with your brother, looking at his driveway you'd never have guessed he owned old British bikes đđđđ
It was so lovely, it's the first time we have ridden together, and I'm so glad I captured it and the weather was stunning. đ
Congratulations on getting to Aberdeen great footage of the bridges and riding in Scotland with your brother on his lovely AJS not that the mighty Meteor isn't lovely ,
It's a great feeling to accomplish a big trip on a bike I think you have put together a very watchable and enjoyable video well done Charlie đx
Thank you Kev. đ
Nice to see , Stonehaven only a stoneâs throw away from me.
As you left Montrose you must have gone inland, to Laurencekirk. Should of kept on the coast road. Glad you had fun, and weather decent, while out n about up here. Look forward to next video.
Hi Mark, think I was just a bit done and wanted to get to my brother's by that point. đ
A good job well done.
Fantastic!!
I've only just got around to watching this series after looking forward to it for ages.
I'm always late to the party!! đ€Ł
I'm glad you liked the Tay Bridge and the A92 coast road. I'll need to have another run up there before the weather turns totally shit.
Your brother took you in some fantastic roads as well.
The road from Balmoral up to Glenshee is amazing (drone footage).
I've never yet seen a speed camera when I've been along there. đđ
Anyway, it looks like you had a great time đ
Welcome back. đ There were indeed some epic roads, thank you for the pre-tour suggestions. đ
Great bikes Enfields i had a Royal enfield electra for nearly 5 years loved it
I'm loving mine. đ
@@restdayrider wish I had kept mine to be honest.
And that is why I love Scotland, beautiful. And that AJS... đđđ
Iâm enjoying the trip,you went over the river forth (Clackmannan Bridge) and you were within five minutes of the village we live in ,you would have been welcomed to enjoy some Scottish hospitality in our home
Next time Billy. đ
Well done Charlie! You reached your goalâŠ. Great riding and determination to keep going. Iâm sure you have inspired many riders to take the leap and do some touring. Just brilliant!
Thanks Pete, now just the return journey to do! đ
Just enjoy the ride! Keep the wonderful videos going⊠most importantly stay safe đ
Beautiful scenery, done a lot of touring in Scotland. However, try Spain, that's where my touring enjoyment improved massively, you can tootle across from Bilbao to Malaga 90% traffic (stress) free, with a comfy bed & room less than the price of a campsite in the UK. And cut your luggage by 60%+ too. I've also done that trip on a bicycle so if l was offered any bike to do it on, l'd go for your Meteor, it's perfect.
I'd like to tour Europe, Spain sounds like a nice inclusion. đ
Great Video Charlie! Great scenery and fantastic biking roads. You clearly show that riding is not just about speed. I love the 350 meteor , it just looks superb⊠take care and stay safe !
Thanks Pete.
Hello from the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada. I just discovered your channel so I'm binge watching to catch up. I watch many motorcycle touring channels and I enjoy yours equally. I'm an avid biker of many years and still enjoy adventure touring. I'm really impressed with your courage as a new biker, and I love your presentation, camera work and your choice of music. Ride on and keep the rubber side down.
Hi, and welcome to the channel. đ
That AJS was cool đ
Well done Charlie , great video i do like your brothers AJS 650 tbh , i bet the bath & bed was nice , ride safe
It was indeed ! đ
Rock on girlie, glad to see youâre doing your shoulder safety check before moving off/out! đđ»
Just subbedâŠâŠCam x
Thank you Cam đ
Awesome vĂdeo, thanks for sharing your beautiful country. Cheers from Portugal đ”đč Ride safe.
Thanks Paulo đ
Congratulations Charlie on your successful trip. Great achievement and beautiful scenery in Scotland. On my bucket and still hoping to get there as my family roots are in Scotland. And a very impressive collection of classic bikes of your brother. Iâll drink a toast to you on reaching your goal.đđ. Cheers and stay safe, Dan. âïžđđšđŠ
Thanks Dan. đ
Loved seeing you in Arbroath. A real unexpected treat. Still kicking myself for not taking a photo of you on the bench awaiting my arrival đ€Ș
Flat out on the bench. đ€Ł
This was brilliant, you're a hell of a lot braver than i am!! You've inspired me to maybe give something like this a go. I've been away from motorcycling for over 20 years but after my youngest reached 18 last month I made the return and bought a bike.... it's been a learning curve after so long away but I'm loving every second of it.
Thank you for sharing this epic adventure đ
Thank you Stuart, get out there and do it, and stay tuned for more to come! đ
You might also enjoy Itchy Boots channel. God speed & Greetings from Germany đđ
I watched your videos on a Saturday night here in NZ. Really enjoyed your trip and experience. Much better than the dross they screen out here! Hats of to you for getting 'stuck in' after only 6 months of riding. Best wishes to you.
Thank you đ
Brill video really enjoyed watching your progress from england all the way to scotland. your first bridge you went under looked like
the castlecary viaduct and your second bridge was the larbert viaduct which aint far from me. Looking forward to your return trip video. Well done you.
Hi, thanks for the local info. đ
Realy like your choice of music!
Great video, it's a pleasure to see you having an adventure and making a few mistakes like the rest of usđ€Ł
Never be afraid to stop and take shelter. A warm dry hotel room is paradise at the end of a long wet ride!
I am sure someone has already suggested this but, but get yourself Pinlock visor insert. It will stop you misting up in the rain and is a lifesaver.
Looking forward to the rest of your trip and many more to comeđ
Thank you Graham. đ
Fab scenery, blue sky, fab AJS !
Picked up on Your channel at the start of your camping trip. I have friend and relations from your neck of the woods and also Aberdeenshire.. and by the look of the snippet for the next installment, you head through my manner. Thoroughly enjoyed the content so far. Be inspired, do more.
Thank you Steve. đ
The best view in the world coming home over the Tay Road Bridge and seeing The Law even more spectacular at night. An ex Dundonian now living in the Lake District.
As i'm terrified of heights, night may have been better !
When I seen previously you were passing by Dumfries, where there's an awesome little Royal Enfield dealer, which is the reason I discovered your channel Charlie, as my mate Lochwood92 seen a recent vid of mine when I popped in for a look at the RE's & then he told me to check you out! đđ
That's nice to hear John, thank you. đ
I loved the off the beaten track route!
If you're planning on riding back along the A1 stop off at squires cafe in sherborn in elmet near Selby. It's a great place with camping, showers and good food and there's always lots of bikes there.
Just watched through my tv , so came to like and say another great video thanks đđ„
Congratulations on reaching Scotland & of course your brothers,gotta say enjoyed the ride out with he's AJS great video Charlie đ
Thank you John. đ
Glad you had a better moral, and the vieuws are just great Starting an AJS is a hell of a job, we are not used to that anymore, now you push a button and it starts
Hi, your brother's bike is in the same age I am. The bike is in a better condition! Greatings
Ha! đ
Recognised Stonehaven and Dunnotter without the captions. Was at Johnshaven last week. A most excellent area to be.
It was stunning.
Brilliant vlog again. Nice to see you riding out with your brother. His AJS was running brilliantly. Last one I followed was burning quite a bit of oil. Gorgeous scenery around the Balmoral estate to the Cairngorms.
Thanks Dan. đ
