We are lucky enough to live on the route of the NC500 and as a result we have ridden parts of the route many times. However, one thing that has eluded us is the mighty feat of completing the entire 500 mile route over the course of one day. It's a journey that takes you across the breadth of the Scottish Highlands through many of the most beautiful and windswept areas the UK has to offer.
The festive months are a time that many motorcyclists put their vehicles in storage. It’s cold, it’s wet, and worst of all the roads are covered in corrosive salt. Despite all this, with the right know how and some preparation, winter can still be a great and rewarding time to ride, with some unique and breath-taking vistas to take in and much quieter roads for the keen explorer.
