This trip is getting closer now ..but it is with a heavy heart that I want to pay tribute to Richy Walker who tragically passed away on April 1st after a very short illness. Richy was a much loved part of our small riding group and the first to " sign up" for this trip..always so enthusiastic &...

Hi Howie .. While we are probably too far North for you in terms of where we normally ride ( Northumberland , Borders, Lakes , N Yorks) ..we have a core group of riders who meet up fairly regularly .. A few of us are meeting at Whinlatter trail centre on 20th April and you would be more than...

Your planning should have extended to riding there either in early May or late September ..for a midgie free experience 😉😁.. I wouldn't like to count the number of years riding that exists within our group..all gnarly mountain men ...but your advice is sound and accidents can happen anywhere and...

Ben Damph can literally be done from the cottage door where we are staying on the Torridon Estate ..and would be the ideal warm up as the first ride ..I havent done that loop before..I'm also interested in The Slattadale Rockride route described in this book ...although starting from Gairloch (...

Cheers Jase ..I'm sure we will..most of the lads haven't had the pleasure yet and for me it will be a different experience on the ebike ..havent done the Dundonnel / Poolewe ride ..but it looks good ... The classic loop is on the agenda as is Applecross ( my favourite ) there & back and given...

If anyone else is interested meet at the bridge in Mosedale ..10.00am..but do let us know you are coming ( below) ..

Just realised that I didn't follow up on this ..the ride went ahead ..the tracks did link up and we were joined by Richy & Mike .. It was an awesome ride ..so good that we are riding it again on Saturday 8th October. Wayne , Ant & Jaco + myself ..if anyone else is interested then stick your name...

Bit of an explorer ride as although I've ridden in the area a number of times there are a couple of b/ ways & other tracks which on paper look as if they don't link up ..but do they? Meeting by the bridge in Mosedale time tbc .. @JFDI & @The EMF and myself .. Anyone else want to join in the fun?

We have a little WhatsApp group which was started from meeting people and organising rides from the good folk on this forum ..and over the last couple of years or so we have had some great days out .. The best though is yet to come ..only talked about on our ride in The Cheviots last Saturday it...

Meet at 10.15am for a 10.30 kick off at Barrowburn Car Park. There is actually 3 ways to start the ride ..myself I would prefer the most direct route over Middle Hill / Hazely Law to get up to the Border Ridge ..where we lose all of our hard earned height on the drop down over the border to...

No seals ..we spent the morning at Portpatrick and then the afternoon in the Logan Botanic Gardens ..before ending up at The Isle of Whithorn ./ Steampacket .. We are staying at the Cairndoon Byer for a couple of nights ..off to the Mull of Galloway for a mooch tomorrow ..love this area and...

Yeah ..you weren't too far wrong

As much as I'd love to its nose to the grindstone after a long weekend away

Great ride ..write up & pics in the Pic of the Day section ( General Forum ) ..slightly different finish to the ride as we crossed over the Valley ( Alan's suggestion) and did the black route climb at Glentress and ended up coming past the Golfie into Innerleithen ..a great suggestion giving a...
