Anyone else tried / done this and got pissed off with all those gates?
I had a really good day today riding from Nethy Bridge over to Tomintoul via Dorback then the Speyside Way spur to Ballindalloch. I had planned to then follow the next bit of the way south to Nethy Bridge but it was a pain having to get off the bike every few hundred yards to tackle gates. It slowed me so much I realised I was going to run out of daylight! I admitted defeat and hopped onto the A95 about 10k from Granton and followed the road back to Nethy Bridge.
Is it like that for a long section or had I done the worst of it? And are there better options to avoid any gatey bits?
Cheers
