Escaping the rat race is Ramsay MacMahon’s secret to surviving the working week and Scotland has it all when it comes to holiday destinations. He travels to East Lothian for a weekend of high-octane fun and fascinating history.

Starting in Dunbar, Ramsay learns about the humble beginnings of John Muir. The environmentalist and founding father of America’s national parks movement was born here. Ramsay cycles along part of the John Muir Way with a few activities thrown in along the way.

On the road, it’s not long before the bike is swapped for a wetsuit and Ramsay gets a wakeboarding lesson. Exhausted after a non-stop day, he then spends the night in a secluded cosy cabin.

Reaching North Berwick, Ramsay finally gets up close to the famous East Lothian landmark that has been following him since he arrived – the Bass Rock home to the world's largest colony of Northern Gannets.

Gheibh Ramsay MacMahon faochadh o ghleadhraich a bhaile ma theicheas e aig deireadh na seachdain, is chan eil dad is fheàrr leis na saor-làithean ann an Alba. Tha e a’falbh gu Lodainn an Ear airson cur-seachadan inntinneach agus eachdraidh tharraingeach.

Tha e a’tòiseachadh ann an Dùn Barra, far an do rugadh an t-eòlaiche àrainneachd ainmeil, Iain Muir: am fear a thug iomairt airson Pàircean Nàiseanta sna Stàitean Aonaichte gu buil. Feuchaidh Ramsay earrann de shlighe Iain Muir air a bhaidhseagail, le cleas no dha eile san dol seachad.

Chan fhada gus a bheil e leum am broinn deise-fhliuch airson oidhirp air bòrd-srutha; bì e taingeil air cadal sèimh ann am bothan blàth.

A’ruigheachd Bearaig a Tuath, gheibh e nas fhaisge air a chomharra-mara a bha ga leantail fad a thuruis, Am Bas – dachaigh dhan sgaoth shùlairean is motha air an t-saoghal.
