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.

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.

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...
