Billy completes the last leg of his motor-trike journey along the world-famous Route 66. He visits a massive meteorite crater in Arizona, before heading to the Grand Canyon. He meets a campaigner trying to keep the historic route alive, and bottle-feeds a lion cub in a sanctuary for unwanted exotic pets. Finally, he reflects on his 3,000-mile ride when he ends his travels in Santa Monica, California.

I did the 66 as a truck driver. One of the best experiences of my life, but Billy put it into words that i could never do. Well done Billy, you brought back amazing memories for me mate

Billy on 66 may be the most beautiful thing I've ever seen on the RU-vid. I'm alternating between laughing and crying.

In the 1950's and '60's my parents took us on many trips on the complete route 66 road. Such amazing memories.

I am overjoyed to finally see this journey to its final destination. What a ride!! What a soundtrack! Thanks very much indeed to the Big Yin, an absolute treasure of a man!

this is brilliant. I've loved Billy since we first saw him on TV when we lived in Scotland in the early 70s. His human take on the humanity on Route 66 moved me to tears more than once. I'm so grateful to have witnessed this amazing journey by a legendary Scot. Thanks, Billy!!

I had my own Route 66 adventure years ago. It is a magical, American trail. And at the Grand Canyon I rode the donkeys to the bottom, camped, and back up the next day. Most thrilling thing I've done.

@mescko Год назад

If Billy (or any one of us) had travelled this same route in 1955 the impressions would have been so different. I knew a guy who's family did just that. I wish I could. All those towns were still vibrant.

That crater is amazing! Being a woman who decided not to go into astronomy because I was told in college that I had to wait for an astronomer to die before I could get their job. I thought that was horrible as a 20 something , but as a fourty year old I could happily start thinking of ways to ease their way (passing) a few years faster. I'm adding this trip to my bucket list !

I just love the bottle collector I'm a bit of a bottle collector myself in a collection there's always a favorite mine is a 1860s early wood mold bottle and I love it because you can see the wood chisel scoop marks in the glass when you hold the bottle in the light that screams human action someone made that mold by hand the magic is that the bottle looks smooth outside the light. a great second is a 17th-century bottle its neck is slightly bent and the top is crooked someone made that bottle by blowing into a glob of molten glass and forming it into a bottle and it didn't go perfectly instead it slanted and drooped a bit I love that! and it survived 4 centuries! which is a feat in itself!

Seligman has a nice German restaurant, a couple gas stations, a KOA RV park, and some Route 66 tourist trap places selling trinkets and T-shirts. It also has a small airport in the area for private planes. If you pass by, the German restaurant is definitely worth the stop.

@theprecipiceofreason Год назад

It's true. A local investment is often bifarcated by a train yard or train tracks in the US towns. It's not just a phrase. Poor people on one side, rich on the other.

@thecricketbatguitar4413 Год назад

It comes from the days of steam trains and the prevailing winds, those with means bought the land up wind whilst the others had to suffer the smoke and soot deposited on the wrong side of the tracks

Just a note, Billy, the first trains in America were built in Glasgow, and, shipped to New Jersey in sections. They were ordered by the American government, who immediately set about copying them and producing their own...a copy of this one in the vid'. Glasgow is still waiting for America to pay for the three they ordered originally! The only modifications made were a tall stack, and a buffalo grill, up front!!!
