Recently I mentally added Jon Climber to that list too. Though he was always a legend in my eyes, but a recent message made me realise how far out the box he actually thinks/looks. #blush When you say "Bikepacking" I class this as a chilled out ride, stop when you fancy, take photos, taki...

Iceland is a fantastic country but very fickle with its weather.
Expect, plan and train for riding into an all day head wind full of rain and hail.
And if you get a good weather window it will be a bonus

But I always developed shin splints and was unable to walk. I fancy re starting again but how do I avoid getting shin splints and pains i...

Again depending on the terrain and weather, also what time of day you start out. Take the WRT leaving at 1pm Sat - up to 30 miles Sun - 50 miles (maybe another 70 would be ok if less hilly or technical without any pushing Mon - 20 miles to the start. Take the Cairngorm outer loop https://welovemount...
