[Closed] Munros that are crap for riding?

So, courtesy of Mrs Legend's many contacts, I now have a nice pair of Lowa hiking boots - and no idea where to take them. I was therefore wondering if the masses can recommend some good Munros to shred them on (you can still shred without a bike, yeah?) with a key feature being that it would the a bit rubbish to haul a bike up?

As the nights are fair closing in, routes within a couple of hours of Glasgow would be great for a start!

Thanks Tiggs

For the rest, to be more specific: I'll be armed with just a pair of boots and a cagoule ๐Ÿ™‚ Although freeclimbing isn't out of the question, I'm just too concerned that i'll be judged as selfish by the STW masses ๐Ÿ˜‰

Only if "doable" now means one bike between two and having to take the wheels off the thing every so often ๐Ÿ˜‰
