Had a couple of sunny days to myself on the Isle of Arran so thought I'd finally put the cameras to use for biking. Its a first attempt at a biking video so suggestions and feedback are welcome. Hope you enjoy.

Nice vid, Balfa, good riding with some style too!. I love Arran, ride there about 4 or 5 times a year, not the most amazing riding, but it has the whole package - ferry so that you get the holiday feeling, peace and quiet, awesome scenery, great beer and the bestest beer garden anywhere.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Couldn't agree more. Always feels more like a holiday with the ferry. I'm there fairly regularly and always think it could be great with a few additional linking trails in between the good bits. The bog trotting bits didn't quite make the cut ๐Ÿ˜€

No ticks though I've heard from others that they are bad on the North of the island. I guess there are a lot more deer around in that area so it might make sense.
