Hi,
It's about an hours ride from Aberdeen. A place called the Lecht. If I were you I would stick to the West coast as it has some amazing roads and scenery. The Highlands and Islands get my vote for scenic touring every time. The people are great too...... :D

Hi, is that a custom screen you have got on that? it looks like the shorter one off the 650. I rode to Loch ness via Stirling with my dad in August. It was my best ride to date, amazing roads and scenery!

I'm old and cynical, these days when I see glorious landscape like that I just think some fecker is going to cover it in Wind Turbines  :o

"I'm old and cynical, these days when I see glorious landscape like that I just think some fecker is going to cover it in Wind Turbines Never let the truth get in the way of a good story!"

Glad to see someone else that recognises the potential for wind 'farms'......... to totally f**k up the scenery. When riding through Spain they were everywhere, ugly as sin.
It's better to regret something you've done, than something you haven't done.

The screen is direct from Suzuki for around 70 quid if I remember correctly.

Shit, sorry to hear that  :o  but that's what happens, I have seen Planning Applications go in for 10 Turbines which gets refused, then the application is resubmitted for 5 Turbines and it goes through  :shock: , then a year later another application goes in for the additional 5 with the supporting argument that the site has Turbines anyway so what's the problem, and that is passed  :banghead:

Corruption, propaganda and playing on peoples naive hysteria....It's all bollocks  :o

There ends the political broadcast by the 'We don't believe your Global Warming bollocks' party
