A Rather Surprising Glen | Glen Quaich | Royal Enfield Classic 350 

This will be added to my bucket list. I can imagine myself stopping in one of them slightly larger passing places and getting my stove out for a nice brew and take in the scenery. I'm always forgetting something at the moment, there so much to take with you just for the videos alone, Batteries, Camera.Bracketry, Tripods. Great job Take care.

SShh ! Don't tell everyone as they will all want to do it. When I lived in Fife I used to do that run a couple of times per year. Last time (1999) my Bullet 500 broke down just at the start by Amulree 🤬😭 Good to see that cattle grids have replaced gates that you had to stop to open then close again behind you. Best thing about the Bullet was that I got to see much of backroad central Scotland. From the cab of a RAC recovery vehicle admittedly, but it's the thought that counts...

Mick from 5D traveller sent me here, after I made a comment on his Bobby Bullet Cornwall trip about happy days on holiday riding from Dunkeld up to fish Loch Freuchie on my Kawasaki Z250. I came off on a corner on one trip, I remember, (4:10 on your video, actually! ) as I was so keen to get to the loch lol. I dusted myself down, pulled the bike out the ditch, and continued to go fishing 🙂. Another time, I get caught in the worst thunder storm of my life while fishing this loch. I could smell the ozone in the air, and the thunderclaps shook the ground. I sought shelter at the only house near, knocking on the door, and the kind folk gave me shelter as lightning struck trees nearby, blinding in its intensity. I'm pretty sure the solitary house was where those buildings are to the right at 5:18 and the little road to the right shortly after is where I used to go down to park the bike up beside a little bridge. I would love to ride those roads again and cast a line, although I bet it's all private fishing, now.

What a beautiful road , the views are amazing, I think you have the best way of travelling it👍🏍️

Did this road earlier this year on my Classic 500. I rode up from Ayrshire to a Royal Enfiled meet at Powmill, then over to Crieff the sma glen then onto Glen Quaich to Kenmore, Loch Tay Glen Ogle then home. Brilliant ride and the RE is a superb bike for it.

Nice trip and a great bike! Thanks for sharing.

Morning Alex, this is indeed an absolute gem of a ride. Having spent almost 20 years up there running coach tours, it's great to know that there's so many places I've yet to experience, and this channel of yours is giving me an ever growing tick-list of roads that I have to/need to ride. I have a particular fascination for the wee white roads on the road map, and as it stands, this one is at the top of that list! I'm planning to come up there in April on the Himalayan, mainly to revisit my Royal Deeside tour area, so it's looking like there's going to be a detour or two included in the trip. Cheers anyway Alex, I'll get through them eventually! 👍🏍️

Thanks for that Alex. I often take the Tummel Bridge, Aberfeldy, Crief route when I'm heading south, Glen Quaich looks like a great alternative. I don't think I'd want to take the K1600 over there these days but it would be great fun on the Bullet. Cheers, Mick

Really enjoyed that ride Alex. A wonderful backroad and quite unlike anything I have experienced in NZ.

I funcy een o these bikes ana. Smashing video pal 😊👍

Awesome and fantastic 👍👍🌸🏍

Hi Alex, what a splendid wee road, now you have got me planning a route down there 😊 let’s see, Grantown on Spey, Tomintoul, Braemar, Spital of Glenshee across to Dunkeld Mmm….. 😅 Thanks for that Alex

Awesome ride.

Wonderful scenery... Very enjoyable. *Crap Game* 🎉

Stunning! I would hop on a plane just to fly over and ride on that road! (If the ticket wasn't so expensive😄😄)

Morning Alex. What a fantastic road, has it all for me. Steep inclines, beautiful far reaching views, steep decent, cracking switchbacks (despite idiot drivers), shame you missed “phone” off your pre-ride checklist (I have to do that nowadays). Thoroughly enjoyed this ride, thanks for sharing.

Great video up in my neck of the woods Alex! …I was only thinking, as I watched your last video a couple of weeks ago, that the Glen Quaich road would be a great trip for a future Bleary View video - great minds 😊. I’d love to see a Part 2 of the return route over to Amulree, perhaps with a few drone shots eh? Your bike is sounding sweet by the way

Cracking ride, really enjoyed watching this. Hope you get the RE up to Shetland and film it, we had our honeymoon there, staying in the lighthouse keepers cottage at Sumburgh in 2018 and are yearning to go back. How you can make it 🙂

hi Alex great run out with some stunning scenery..thank you sir.old dave

Forgotten phone. No problem. I have done many rides with a camera, but never press play most the time. Take care, ride safe.

Great little road, perfect on a light bike, ie,. Bsa 250 or Mz ,ridden it many times.

Been on the road many times.. thanks for sharing

Looks like a beautiful day, I ride my motorcycle all year here in New England in Connecticut USA the colder the better coldest day I have riding was - 25 degrees and with the wind chill factor was almost 50 degrees below zero the trick is speed up to about 75 miles per hour for about 10 miles then when you have to lower your speeds it feels like a nice warm day stay safe and keep riding

Yes logistics are always difficult to plan , I think a computer helps although I’ve got just a laptop 😊

Hi Alex, not rode that road for over 20 years! Thanks for reminding me how good it is! , used to ride it as a route from Knockhill to Crieff, and onto Loch Tay and Killin towards Glencoe 😁 Cheers Bruce

Evening Alex well you have treated us all to a fabulous Road just look at the view when you are waving at the cyclists and it’s just getting better you and Gray Wolf should start doing Motorbike Tours 👍

Nice one, stunning scenery....😊

Breathtaking video. Was it filmed at the same time Eurovision was on? Incredible lack of traffic. Just as an aside, love the gloves, could you please let us know where you bought them? Thanks!

Lovely ride, great place to just go and chill for a while by the look of it. That car was totally ignorant on that bend 😡 Lovely to hear the enfield chugging away 👌

Hi Alex, well you've really surpassed yourself this time with a fantastic ride out, I think that has got to be the most scenic ride you've done so far, absolutely fantastic. Damn shame about not having any drone footage, is it worth a re-visit with the drone?.

How can you do such an awesome ride video and fail to show us the video of coffee and cake that is sure to follow!

😱 Acknowledging cyclists! You’re dead to me! 🤣🤣
