I've been all around there but never actually right past the castle. It looks like a good day out 👍

It's what used to be known as Viewranger..( which was better) ..but got taken over by Outdoor-active ..
Premium membership is £20ish for the year with full UK O.S. mapping and the ability to track your rides as well as other in app features..

Ok spot on. That would have 1: 25,000 as well probably will check it out. Going out with Drummond the morn he may have that one.
 
My light is great. I crashed tonight & bust the mount which I've discovered is out of stock everywhere. 😭

Parties over back to reality. Winter is coming. Had a great 22 miler two days ago bone dry fast trails at Fochabers Monster trails only six miles from home. Went back today and did same ride . It rained all the time ground has been so dry water was just lying there. Back to washing bike every ride now probably. Wet clothes and loads of grit left in the bath wife telling me to grow up , ah the joys

I haven't been up there for a couple of years, but I put a 20ish mile route in my Garmin and was all set to go up last Sunday. My wife decided to come in at about 1am, wake me up, and for some bizarre reason thought I wanted to hear all about her night. By the time she'd finished, I was wide awake and ended up reading a book for an hour... and then lying awake for what felt like forever. At that point, my plan of leaving Aberdeen at about 6am was kyboshed... and I just went for a local ride at about 9am instead! Shame, because it'd been dry for a while - so the trails would have been good.

Yes good 2 days ago so I went back today but really wet. Blue skies all afternoon typical. Plenty there to use up a full battery if you explore. Nothing hairy scary either so suits me.
