looooong time since i’ve posted on here. Job/age blah blah blah.
Anyway
This one’s for the likes of Druid (goes by the name of scotroutes now i think which may prove to be very useful)
Mrsmichaelwright and I are stopping up in the highlands after the Shetland Festival this year and are taking our mountain bikes, if they still work.
I’m after some routes, singletracky ones, in the north west highlands. We’re staying in Gairloch but planning to hire a van so Assynt, Torridon etc. Even east coast all on the cards.
We’ve ridden the majority of navigable estate roads on our tourers over the years so something a little more adventurous. Not averse to the odd push/carry to get to where the going is good. Planning to cherry pick some sections of the Highland 550 race (we nearly just rode the north circuit of this as an off-road tour but chickened out) as well.
Anybody got any recommendations of routes or websites with good info?
i’m off to check up on all 11000 odd posts of the tune association thread I started all those years ago……
