A couple of photos of a trip my mate and I did last year, riding from Glasgow to Aviemore, via Kinlochleven.

About 3 seconds after the final photo was taken, my camera fell in the sand at Kinlochlaggan and hasn’t worked since.

Cool thread – will post some pics later. Whereabouts is that last one rickmeister?

Evening Grum, decent to Loch Muick from Corie Chash (spelling)… its a high speed hippy hoppy rain bar fest with narrow bits and a drop on the left….

T’other way round. Pic from top right..

Short stroll on Jocks Rd… Dontcha love those Kenny Wilson routes

Cheers – I like that traversing kind of aspect, and being able to see the trail ahead of you for a way like that is fun.

Dontcha love those Kenny Wilson routes

Kenny Wilson is pretty much a swear word in our house after I tried to make my missus do a couple of his routes.

Kenny **** Wilson, I know the feeling well.

Is that Kenny Wilson’s book “Walks with my mountain bike” ? …

Thats the one, think it comes from Kenny, as a mountaineer who bikes…. some of the routes are brilliant and some are “challenging” in their own way.

Anyway.. Ton was asking for pics, so back to the plot…

Love it when these threads come up, for the photos that is, not Ton’s sad missing out on his trip! Couple from my canon –

Looking down onto Fionn Loch

Master 13thfloormonk, of this parish, on the path ‘twixt Diabaig and Red Point (see his epic series for more details)

and a wee sunset over the Minch

that thread 13thfloormonk did about his epic trip, is without doubt the best thread i have read on here. awesome…… 😀

Proper feel-good thread this. Makes me want to up sticks and move to the highlands
