My musical pal Craig has created a disquieting and unique take on What a Wonderful World. youtu.be/hbOx0VzCHis

Just finished a fantastic Saturday ride out around Oban, Glencoe, Fort William and Kinlochleven - very jealous of my pal’s Triumph Scrambler.

Great wee film from a lady I rode with a few times in Edinburgh #mentalhealth #biking youtu.be/s7P9t-xmtKk
Just re watched a video taken on my pal’s go pro of me riding up the Bealach Na Ba (Applecross Pass) 10 years ago. The road surface looked a lot rougher than now and passing places were narrower - but there was hardly any traffic at all. This was pre the NC500 days.
V sad at the loss of this iconic venue. I saw many films here from across the world that I would never have otherwise known about. Edinburgh Filmhouse: Administrators called in over Edinburgh International Film Festival and cinemas collapse | The Scotsman scotsman.com/whats-on/arts-a…

another Prime Minister. There must be a general election. And if they try to pick another PM without ref to the country I fear taking to the streets is the only option. They have had 12 years. The current crisis is entirely of their making. They have to go. The lot of them. 2/2

The Tory Party elected Johnson as leader. The Tory Party elected Truss as leader. Between them they have come close to destroying this country. Never forgive. Never forget. And when these MPs get rid of her (as they will do shortly) we cannot allow the Tory Party to choose 1/2
On a bit of a road trip - Rannoch Moor, Glencoe, Fort William, a ferry across a sea, Edinburgh - not necessarily in that order 😀 😀Some cloud and sunshine - but great biking conditions today !!

Very excited to see the Knoydart Old Forge Pub has finally been bought by the community. I have a friend in Knoydart who is over the moon about it - hopefully pints will be served there again by Easter :-D
