So rode Mount Keen Friday evening, then the Loch Muick - Glen Clova - Corrie Chash loop Saturday.
Capel Mounth was good, but how about doing the loop in the opposite direction to take in Bachnagairn as a descent rather than hike-a-bike?
I was wondering where else to go?
Is Lochnagar to Glas-allt Shiel rideable / any good?
Other suggestions? Thanks.

Loch Muick Saturday - nice.

fungle path descent to tarfside is good rocky loose

which side of mt keen did you ride down ? north side is an epic descent , south side is ridable to the top (in the big ring if your superhuman like my mate james)

kilbo path is wild - love it ! i rode it on a 80mm carbon XC whippet mobile but it looked much more fun on jos motolite or greigs turner !

the descent to glas alt sheil is supposed to be good , but looping it up without mega hikey bike is not so easy. mates did it as push in ride out and loved it.
