Repeat but worth a look …

“Documentary following sisters Kerry and Kirsty MacPhee as they embark on a mountain bike trip through the Western Isles.”

Is the commentary.. sub-titled ? ( not being arsey)..just wondering prior to “signing up”..although I’m interested there would be little point in watching 3 episodes if I couldn’t understand what is being said ..
Did some mountain biking on Harris in 2007..and would love to go back one day .

Aye, it’s subtitled, well worth a watch as the scenery is stunning and they are two nice lassies as well.

Cheers.

Enjoyed the first episode, ta! Off to Boots for waterproof mascara now…

Definitely worth a watch.

It is subtitled, but they do swear in English (well, Anglo-Saxon)

That was great, I’ll watch the other episodes soon
Thanks

Was a good watch, Know Kerry and a great ambassador for all of it.

Watched the first episode ..it was ok but not too much to get excited about .
I’m more looking forward to the next when they move on to Harris and perhaps spotting something that I have ridden on myself ..also in terms of scenery things should also improve ..

That second episode was more like it ..and I had indeed ridden the first two tracks ..but spookily in reverse of how the girls did .
The big white house at the end of the coffin road track at Seilebost was the one we stayed in ..but the literature & Christmas card that we still get 10 years later have explained that it is now the owners home / art gallery cafe ..it was only built the previous year when we rented it .
The second track missed out a great trail through a wide but high sided valley and overall doing it in a clockwise direction to my mind looked better than the way they tackled it .
That beach at Luskentyre also brought back memories as being the only people on it at 8.00pm in the evening ..just perfect !
The last track is the reason for me wanting to return as I wasn’t able to fit it in ..we were on a family holiday at the time with my then 4 year old son ..but I was really grateful to get in the riding that I did ..even if it did mean that I had to take Gilly’s man & aunty with us!( only joking in the unlikely event that they will ever read this ).
Looking forward to the last episode now..on the flat lands of Lewis.

PPPPPP

You’ll see what I mean once you’ve watched it 🙂

Bump. Ep3 on now.

Worth a watch
