We ride the Honda Monkey to Glencoe for a couple of nights camping at the Red Squirrel Campsite with Mikey and Andrea. We take our tiny motorcycles a ride down Glen Etive, made famous by the James Bond film Skyfall and over Rannoch Moor. This is the first camping trip on the monkey and the first time using my new Vango Nevis 200 tent. The Scenery in the area really is stunning and well worth a visit if you can get the time out with tourist season.
BIKES
I'm riding a 2023 Honda Monkey x125 with a Yoshimura RS3 exhaust.
Mikey rides a 2019 Hinda Monkey z125 with a Scorpion Redpower exhaust.
Andrea rides a 1999 (I think) Honda Africa Twin.

I’ve been on a bit of a RU-vid break, but so glad my first video back featured two Monkey’s, a Spitfire, what seemed like 6 houses from Skyfall, and a Scotsman waving a can of Tennents around. Viva !😁👍

Ha ha! Welcome back!

Another great Yodagoat film, thanks for taking me along Mike. Good to see Mikey and Andreas. You feel you know the guys you see on your films. It's over 40 years since I camped with my brothers in Glen Etive when I thought I'd do all the Munros. Forgot it's so stunning. You've given me ideas for a trip. Agree entirely with your view on the tourists coming up here and not following the rules for driving single track roads. I went to Skye on Monday and was held up for miles by a slow moving car that wouldn't let me past. I'm looking forward to your and Mikey's trip in September. Thanks again Mike.

Thanks again Hugh. I tend to put the indicator on and beep the horn until they let me pass but I always give a wee beep and a wave of thanks.

I'm no sure it was actually a Spitfire, still amazing to see though.

@littlebittybert Месяц назад

Excellent vid, Mike. Now there's another little green flag on my google maps. Cheers!

@yodagoat Месяц назад

Try and get there before June or after August! It's not quiet but it is less busy and there's less chance of midges.

I've just bought an ADV150 (with a stage 1 sounds like yours and with bigger injectors/ air filter goes like stink). You must try one! (160 even better but cant get in NZ). Went through Glencoe in 1978 on a CD175. Pissed with rain and couldnt see anything. Done it a few times since but still never seen the sun.

@yodagoat Месяц назад

Sadly we don't have the 150 here in Scotland. You guys get some interesting bikes and have great roads in New Zealand. Glencoe and Rannoch Moor can be pretty wet at times! Usually it's still pretty scenic though.

@RoamingOnTwoWheels Месяц назад

Brilliant video man, I'm choking to get away on a few overnights up north on the bike this summer 🤞👍

@yodagoat Месяц назад

Thanks man. I know what you mean. As soon as I got home I was looking at the map again. It's what we do!

@RoamingOnTwoWheels Месяц назад

@yodagoat deffo, I've got aviemore twice this summer but I'm sure I can pepper a few more trips in there as well 🤣

How busy was red squirrel, glad I don't have to run through half naked with shite down my legs these days 😂

@yodagoat Месяц назад

That's was it sold out to be fair. No more just ramming folk in like a festival. It was about as busy as that day when you done your glorious walk.😂

Don’t understand why they’re riding so fast in such awesome scenery😂😂😂 Do they have to get back to the office?

@yodagoat 8 дней назад

Ha ha! They're definitely not riding fast mate. Coastal erosion is quicker than us.

@dagrant7881 Месяц назад

£15 a night, expensive lol. Here in Northern Ireland it's usually £25 a night, virtually no facilities, nothing to do, nowhere to go and surrounded by cow fields.

@yodagoat Месяц назад

That doesn't mean that £15 a night for camping is cheap, it's just that you guys are being ripped off. I think £15 for the Red Squirrel isn't bad, it's a good site but at the top of the campsite scale here price wise. Try a trip to France. Campsites there are pretty good and usually only about £5-£10. Phenomenal scenery too.

@staryjanek Месяц назад

Great Craic :) Jeez sooo crowded compared to when I used to scoot aboot up there ! what's this nonsense of folk in T shirts etc on the bike, as an ex theatre nurse, I can tell you that having gravel out of your skin with scrubbing brush and Iodine is NOT to be recommended, THEN there is the skin grafts, they should show this to silly Billy's like that

@yodagoat Месяц назад

I was pretty surprised to see the guy riding like that to be honest. I've not seen that before! To be fair to the Red Squirrel that was it full. Back in the day they'd just keep ramming folk in like a festival at busy times.
