Re: Dirty 'Free'ver (sort of)

I'm on driving-to-the-airport duty and childcare/dog walking duty for a few weeks solid. On the other hand I've got a couple of days free in February so I'm off to cycle some of that ar...

Re: Wild About Argyll Trail
That's the one. I made use of some of that route last year cycling from home to near Oban for a family holiday. What I did of the route was cracking and I had brilliant weather. Plan to do a bigger chunk of it this year.

Re: Wild About Argyll Trail
HTrider phil put up a route last year covering a lot of this, I think. Maybe called The West Highland 500.
I did a chunk of that for summer solstice last year and loved it.
Great area to ride in.

A day ride or One night will probably be all i can get approval for and not too concerned about the distance, interesting is more important for me. p...

I did the second one. Cold start but beautiful day in Keilder. Not the most exciting of routes but pretty sociable. Price has gone up a bit and a little rich for me now.
