Heading to aviemore in a couple of weeks, planning a decent length ride on the saturday, overnighter in a hostel, then Laggan and home on the sunday.
Looking to do something natural on the saturday, maybe about 40-50K? Only riding I've did up there was The burma road and Carn ban mor at this time last year.
Thanks in advance.
Bothy bikes do wee route maps that can take you out to some fab bits of singletrack. One section in particular that springs to mind was in the forestry out past Ryovan Bothy. Simply superb.
Also, Kenny Wilson took a bunch of us on a fantastic tour of the Aviemore trails a year or so ago. I seem to recall that some of the best bits were up above GlenMore lodge. You could check out his book, or again I think asking at Bothy Bikes would point you in the right direction.

We did one 2 years ago - natural trail - very nice - but I haven't got access to it at work 🙁

Kenny Wilson has some great routes around that area....I do recommend getting hold of the book if you can 😀
there is so much around that area who knows where to start!
Ahh yeh I think my mate got kenny wilsons book and did we did a big ride from that 🙂
Anyone else? Stuartie_C?
If you drop me an email I can forward some map grabs.
Can you make that pic a bit bigger I can't make it out.
Bothy Bikes is the best place to ask - very helpful.
If you want a 40-50k ride you should try the Beinn A'Ghlo circuit from Blair Atholl. 55k - one of the Scottish classics, also in the Kenny Wilson book. Real wild, remote Scotland. Note you need to do it when there hasn't been much rain for a couple of days or you won't be able to get over the river by the Falls of Tarf
