3 day adventure using Specialised Super Light Levo and Kinevo’s from Glasgow to Fort William (just under 100 miles )
[Music] so we’re just doing prayers before we say oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah [Music] me yeah really bad well generally is move generally movement helps you know that’s that’s the key thing this is your bike
i can’t I can’t move i can’t stand ah ah huh down home oh there you go the doll’s house [Applause] how you doing well done so we’ve hit dryman which is good and there’s a bike maintenance and charging point which is great idea
it’s a fantastic idea
unless you’ve got two specialized bikes
which is the only range they don’t cover and this is this here there’s a list of them all and one of these is specialized so we can’t actually charge the
I can’t believe you borrowed me a specialized so come on manufacturers just standardize it it would have been a fantastic idea but there we go egypt it okay so here we are in the Drummond cafe drummond
uh and swimsuit and we had a bit of problems because the uh electric cables didn’t work but kind of the folks here at Drummond Bakery not only they fed water to us and given us some amazing food and it’s very good value but uh let us kindly charge the bike as well my bike’s around the corner in a uh bike shed which has got an external socket so uh so it’s very very kind and they’re not far from the square so I recommend you guys come here great food really good thank you very much german bakery Balah moment that’s where you come down from conic hill and this is the oak tree in famous very busy today mo coffee shop again very busy good ice cream okay Martin hello weather over there looks like a bit of the rain how was that
i’m looking at you
i got a fly there he’s got his mid hat oh my god he’s mid hat everyone’s got hats on we found mid area have we
i think so we’re at the Roundon Hotel we’ll show the view the cafe here which they’ve let us with two charges i suppose we have to charge bikes again there’s a hotel with an ice cream cuz of course it’s very hot little flowman and um ta in the distance where we’re our ferry eventually goes i actually struggle so quickly that um we’re here an hour and a half too early it’s because we are athletes okay oh well there’s a bar here at hotel so we might go and use it so what’s your views on it so far it’s sweaty muddy midgety
bit midgety um too many walkers oh yeah but they’ve been very nice
mostly female yeah almost all girls
we don’t know why um obviously all the men are somewhere gone off to war or something um they have to some tossing something so hopefully the girls are um bend less we’re going to get the ferry from over there that’ll take us to Tarot where uh we then will have to cycle along the road to Ben glassass we could get the ferry across the top end of Lman uh it’s going to be quite late by the time we get there and I don’t think the ferry works after about 5:00 but we’ll see we’ll give it a go our duey I think it is where we’re going to try and go from um the reason we’re going across on the ferry from Wara Denon is that um the next bit across Lachlman is just it’s not really ridable but it’s not very enjoyable um you got to carry the bike most of the way and it takes a very long time so uh it’s okay to walk i walked it last year with Sue but this year um decided not to do that so sensible choice so yeah I think we’ve done about 20 miles so far 25 miles or something to tell me
40 km
25 miles there you go good guess um so not far to go but we should get back should get to the campsite of Benless uh about 7:00 so all in all it should be a good day yeah enjoyed it so far [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] denon youth hostel martin’s going to stay in the youth hostel from now on
