Video: A cargo e-bikepacking adventure along Scotland’s Moray Coast

Bikepacking, rain and rainbows. This latest edit brings together Jenny Graham, the fastest female to travel around the world on her bicycle and Bikepacking Scotland author, filmmaker and world travelling single-speed cyclist Markus Stitz where they set out on a new adventure – this time following the Moray Speyside Coast in Scotland. This is nothing unusual for a pair of cyclists like this. For a new level of challenge, they hop onto Tern Orox e-bikes for a different way of travelling.

In this short film, endurance cyclist Jenny and Edinburgh-based filmmaker Markus follow the route pulled from Stitz’s guidebook. A 239km loop from Inverness, which is proudly known for its world-famous distilleries and incredible scenery.

Tern Bike: Chasing Rainbows, by Rhian Atherton

The duo aimed to push the Tern to its limit, and this is a machine ready for the harsh elements a Scottish coast can throw its way. The trip is to discover how the 4-inch tyres and Bosch kit handle a long-distance journey. Sounds luxurious. When the duo were hoping for summer sunshine and soaking up the views, the trip turned into soaking in the rain and adventuring in the beauty of ever-changing weather, with rainbow hues as the backdrop in the distance and a water taxi being a highlight.
