did this is 2010 about 2 months after passing my bike test. This is the most spectacular place on earth, and the sunset from Applecross bay is fantastic

A disabled man was pedaling up here with his hands when we went up! He had a little flag on the back of his specially adapted bike. My wife refuses to go on this road now.

Great vid, was up there last year on my Tiger....you on a Triumph 3 cyl by any chance??

Incredible scenery, can't say been to Skye, but absolutely adore this road, would be a dream to travel on, how narrow it is and how remote that place is, it almost looks and feels like just pure freedom! love it!

@curlycrumper You don't need benidorm mate, why would you, Scotland's scenery puts Spain to shame.

I went over the pass on Saturday there in very wet conditions, done it a few times. The vis at the top was terrible, could not see the bends until you were on them, even tho still a great run.

Any tips welcome. I shall sound this area out this year and when I win the lotto I shall bring all the boys each on a BMW 1200 GS ! Let`s enjoy life- it`s not a rehearsal! Keep on biking!
Just did this route on Wednesday. The wind was so fast once we reached the switchback hairpins you couldnt breather-an awesome place

Heading up here in 2 weeks on my 600 trail bike and a mini tent and rucksack. Can`t wait. Who needs Benidorm?

Excellent! Are you staying at the Applecross campsite? The food in Applecross Inn is well worth trying.
Benidorm? Pah! Not when you have places like the Applecross peninsula.

love this vid, applecross penisula and lochcarron is such a brilliant place. Don't think my weeny 125 would be able to cope with this though.
