THRICE AS NICE

Fast Bikes drag-a-long Neil’s been on this trip three times now, and he’s still not bored…

“Every time I go it’s different. There are so many awesome roads that you never have to ride the same ones twice; unless you choose to. I’m all the time out riding with mates and we’ve been all over Europe, but there’s something special about the Moffatt region. It’s got a huge land mass and a tiny population, which explains why you never see any cars and that pretty much means you can get away with riding the way you want to ride whenever you’re out of towns or villages.

“It’s also really accessible, or at least it is for me. And stopping with the boys at the Buccleuch is a treat; they really look after you and guarantee you have a great time. You don’t have to take their advice, but it’s nice to have their guidance on tap, and it’s impossible to fault the facilities.”
