After a winter break, I'm back on the trail! At least partially. I was recently able to spend two glorious days cycling along the Aberdeenshire coast, which completes the full 165 miles of the Aberdeenshire Coastline. Turns out because of the routes I took, it was more like 185 miles! But either way, it was a fantastic journey. In this video I'll share the last 50 miles to complete the Aberdeen coastline and along the way show some absolutely SPECTACULAR views and my favourite castle in Scotland.

I was watching, getting lost in unbelievable beauty of it all, and it felt amazingly good! Not only because the scenery is so absolutely fabulous, but also because you are living your life to the full. Conquering new heights ( sometimes in its literal meaning), exploring, learning, enjoying every day! 👍 Having a blast, in short. Thank you for going an extra mile and taking us along, it's not a small feat to go by bike all that way and on top of that film all this beauty! Thank you!

Girl your drone footage was top notch. It felt like I was watching a PBS documentary. Sooo lovely. I think the sheep running was my favorite part. I've never seen a sheep look so happy. Also, I appreciate you putting some music to the sound of the birds. You are right they were noisy, but the way you did it with music made it feel magical ✨

Beautifully done Sarah. I am an old guy who loves to ride a bicycle. I purposely drop my shoulders and relax my grip to relieve the upper back and neck tension that builds up along the way. Once stationary, shoulder rolls, and some out of saddle time helps too!

I'll be visiting a friend in SW England in the fall, and these videos of yours are a large part of why I've decided to make most of that trip a self-guided cycling tour and to attempt some plein air painting in the process (not my typical subject matter or setting, but why not). Thanks for sharing! 17:10 Looks like a stroopwaffel to me. Great with tea, or coffee, for you heathens!

She will enjoy your videos too. Thanks again and great job! ❤Rita

Wow! You have convinced me to put Scotland at the top of my bucket list! So lush and green and gorgeous, beautiful views in every direction. A sketch and paint holiday sounds like a dream. Getting in shape enough to bike some of this sounds less dreamlike, but would be so worth it.Are there enough towns in the area to break this into maybe 4 days instead of 2? I don’t think I could do 20 miles a day. Thank you so much for sharing and just being you ❤

@sarahinscotland 2 месяца назад

Yes there are lots of little towns on the east coast. You could do much smaller sections

@nalissa77 2 месяца назад

It could be your handlebars are too wide. The standard theory is that on a road bike it’s the width of your shoulders. Since you’re not racing, it should probably be close to that as well on your mountain bike. You don’t need a new handlebar. You or a bike shop can just cut off an inch or two to fit. It might be the camera angle but you look like your arms are fully extended. Maybe take it into a bike shop and tell them the pain you’re feeling and they can suggest a fix. Also padded shorts helps a lot on those long rides. Thanks again for the beautiful video and taking us along for the ride.

@ayokakaiser 2 месяца назад

I‘m riding an electric bike and recently had my handle bars shortened - feels a LOT better although it took a bit of time getting used to the different feel of steering (bike responds faster).

@sarahinscotland 2 месяца назад

Thank you, my bike is currently in the shop getting a few bits sorted (like the squeak). I'll ask them about the bars. I do wear padded shorts. Couldn't go long distances without them!

@nalissa77 2 месяца назад

@@ayokakaiser I did too. It makes sense since these bars are stock and made to cover a variety of body types. Shortening them is quite common.

congratulations on finishing the aberdeenshire coast!!! on to angus next! i'd love a wrap up video, looking back at your experience on this section of the coast. could also be interesting to compare it to the moray county coast, maybe talk about what you learned from each of them? ETA maybe also talk about your favorite place in each county? or where you'd like to go back to?

Don't know if I can express how much it means to see Scotland with you. I'll never be able to go over in person and your vantage point really makes it feel like I've been there. You need to do a series of "cats I've met along the way", what a beauty. May I ask what brush you were using doing the line work on the castle? It was one i don't remember ever seeing anywhere. Extremely long tip on a good sized belly. Thank you for taking us on your journey. Does the tourism board realize they should be hiring you?❤
