Video: Danny Macaskill and Steve Peat ride the Isle of Skye

The pair take on the Trotternish Ridge which is a route that joins several summits and starts at the Quiraing and finishes at the Old Man of Storr.
However, as expected, there are many time-consuming stops, detours and incidents that pop up along the way or 'spracheling', as Danny describes it. The weapons of choice? A pair of e-MTBs with a spare battery flung in a bag for good measure.
The journey takes the duo over some of the most beautiful landscapes Scotland has to offer. .
