'Push and Pull' is a story about slowing down and exploring the Isles of Barra and Vatersay by bike. I spent 3 nights on these islands which I had only visited once before - to travel even slower, by foot on the Hebridean Way. Yet somehow, I never felt like I did these islands justice - seeing so little of them on my hike...That's what this story is about - maximising your time on the island, while also slowing down to immerse yourself in the landscapes.We'll explore Barra and Vatersay by bike, battle the hilly roads out of Castlebay and learn about the transformations that happen at Traigh Mhor - the big beach up north on the Isle of Barra. We meet the merry dancers in the night skies and follow the road south to the beaches of Vatersay.At the end of the episode, I share my top tips for a slow adventure in Barra and Vatersay.Visit our website to find the full show notes incl. the transcript and links to places I visited on this trip.Help us spread the word about Wild for Scotland!
