Return march by the Lonach Highlanders and Lonach Pipe Band through Strathdon, Scotland in Aug 2018

The return march of the Lonach Highlanders, led by retired Police Officer James Mitchell on his bicycle, the Lonach Pipe Band and supporting Drum Majors from other bands, through Strathdon in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, back in 2018. At the rear is Socks, the Lonach horse, ready to pick up any stragglers. This annual march is a historic part of the annual Lonach Gathering & Games, carried on for several generations. The Lonach Highlanders are all descendants from the Forbes, Wallace and Gordon clans, represented by the different tartans, who march with their weapons, including pikes and Lochaber axes. After the morning march through Strathdon, they gather at a hall for lunch and then march back to Bellabeg to enter the Highland Games for their annual Games parade.
