September 4th - 7th 2021.

Two Honda VFR750 motorcycles, a thousand miles of fantastic roads, and some of the best scenery in the world!

I strapped a GoPro Hero 9 to the front of my motorbike and set it to timelapse mode, taking a photograph every 2 seconds for the journey North on day one and then every second we were on the road during days 2 to 4. The result is a quick tour of some of the most incredible backdrops in this stunning country. Plus, press pause at any time for a pretty clear photo.

I hope you enjoy it as much as my brother and I did (especially going to the Eilean Donan Castle, also known as the home of the Clan McLeod in the movie 'Highlander', and the Glenfinnan Viaduct, as featured in the 'Harry Potter' films, just as the 'Hogwarts Express' was crossing!).
