@@khemikora I don't believe that, as long as you stay relatively fit and strong it should not be a problem and he's got the following for it. I'm 44 and if I can lose some weight I'll try it myself. It can't be that hard to climb on a slow moving train and hide out! Its more about not getting caught. Lets not forget stobe from Canada was drunk half the time. He did die though, but that was when he was not on the train, but got stuck on a bridge with one, #1 rule if you know if you're in a tight spot, take ruck sack off and stay as small and as far away from the track as possible, better still, just learn from STAND BY ME.

The floods certainly added an extra dimension to the trip, Alun :P Fortunately the car survived so all was well.

Looking at the date you were there - I was on day 7 of 8 days cycling and had gotten utterly drenched for the 3rd day in a row! - I was south of you around the Glenrothes/St Andrews/Dundee/Perth way so it was the same storms that hit you! I'd never gotten so wet cycling with so little chance of drying my cycling clothes/shoes. What fun! Though when it finally did stop raining, the views in Scotland do make up for the soggy bits!

@BraveDave

Wow, good effort, Terry! 8 days of cycling through Scotland is hardcore even when it's not in torrential rain. It sucks when everything is soaked and they can't be dried. Waking up in a wet tent and then having to put on wet clothes and boots when it's so cold is definitely "character building" :P

Another entertaining informative film by The Brave Dave. Wonderful stuff as usual.

Big groups taking over a bothy is a bummer. I would just have crammed in.

Hi JFY! Thanks for checking. Yes, it wasn't me who had the accident, though I was in the area when it happened (walking around Llyn Idwal). It's really tragic that the guy fell, but given how windy it was that day, and with patches of rain, there's no way I'd have gone up a Grade 3 in those conditions. Stay safe out there!

Have you seen Vagrant holiday's channel? It really reminds me of your train hopping videos, and it is just as exciting to watch. Is that something you would do too or are your urban adventure days over for good? Keep up the good work!

They may be over for good. Mountain guiding is Dave's breadwinner, I wager, and while he _is_ in shape, he's no spring chick anymore. That said, I would love to see him do his mountain-ing magic in mainland Europe. France, for example, has great peaks and ridges, as do Italy and Austria and so on.

Would love for you to make another trainhop video. I really think that will rack up views!

I have to wonder how many milimeters dropped that day to flood and wash out Scotland of all places. It's a very rainy country with the drainage systems to match! But ey, you lot had an extra adventure, had some good beer, dinner and breakfast, and came back home with a story to tell. So all's good, right? Except for the camera.
