Greetings YouTube! Hit that subscribe button and join us as Ben and I hit the road and head north for an impromptu tour of Scotland. Just days before, our long-awaited father-and-son motorcycle tour of the Black Forest ended as soon as it began when my BMW R1200 GSA was stolen on the first day just outside our accommodation near Reims, France. Two separate journeys home saw us reunited a few days later. Determined to still share our first tour together, we frantically made my partner’s old Bonneville road-worthy which I then borrowed. So, time is now short but we are heading north, the weather’s pants but we are still getting to share a road trip together. I think that makes for a pretty awesome plan B… Let’s ‘ave it!

Hi Steve I rode Aviemore to John o groats on a push bike a couple of years ago, so doing on the Triumph should be a breeze. Great roads and views Ahead. Enjoy
Hiya Steve & Ben. Very different weather than yous should have been riding in, but this is Scotland. Enjoyed your video. I live in Dumfries. I'm just back from touring around Aberdeen. Take care, ride safe.

Brilliant ride boys I followed your trip through lovely kay Ben's mom , and I told kay ill look after Ben's bike for him you have a great boy there .
As the owner of a BMW GS and a Bonneville, (mine is 44 years old) I’m in complete agreement with you Steve….the Bonnie is gorgeous to look at and sounds amazing but nothing beats a GS on a long trip! Hope to see you back on one soon 🤞
Let’s be avin you 😂 enjoy enjoy 👍
So pleased you're back on the road. Your son Ben is a real credit to you, what a genuinely fantastic young guy. You make a great team 💪🏼
Resilience 👊🏼 well done chaps.
Great to see you back on the road again. Best of luck. Look forward to the next episode
great to see you both on road again, watch out for fuel stops very scarse around top of nc500, full up when you can , enjoy bonnie scotland
It's great that you are back and on a triumph, I have a 1960 triumph thunderbird 6t ,ride safely
Not a great first day Steve and Ben but it’s great to see you mobile again. I’ve been following another motorcycle channel ( Sean and Emily ) and they also said that there was a lack of accommodation in Scotland although they had better weather than you. Enjoy your trip.
We are so happy to see you back on two wheels!
Looking forward to watching your adventures through Scotland, hopefully the weather improves for you.
This is fantastic. So pleased to see you back on the road on the Bonnie. Maybe you’ll have a look at the new Triumph Tiger 1200 to replace the AWOL GSAdv?
Back on the road. Happy Days!!! 😊
Enjoy fellas.
Glad you're back on the road. That's some mileage you did there. It wouldn't be Scotland without the rain
Hi Steve and Ben good to see you can't knock a good man down. Glad your back on the road and making the best of the time together despite the bad weather.
Very happy to see you out and about again Steve whilst I am secretly hoping the next bike will be a Rhino again 🙏👍
Good to see you back on the road, more especially, in Scotland 🏴. Enjoy.
Great to see you back out on the roads again. Chain yourself to the Bonnie though
Top marks – lovely video. Well done Steve – admirable guts and determination ably supported by Ben. Delighted to see a light at the end of what has been a pretty dark, dismal, dank tunnel. Time to leave your horrendous France experience behind you and move on, which is what you are doing so brilliantly. A well deserved 👍
