Hi, heading up to Alness area week after next. Has anyone got any good road routes intertwined with some off-road suitable for a CX bike? Routes that don’t require a drive to start would be better in case the family wants to get out and about. I’d normally take the mountain bike and head to Balblair or Golspie but looking to get a longer ride in on he Tripster for a bit of a change. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Look at the map and use the minor roads and forest trails to head towards tain. The aldie burn area is loaded with gravel roads.
