Quick question.
If you were to do the badger Divide and the southern half of the Pictish trail, is it better clockwise or anti?

Surely anticlockwise round anything is very bad luck? Especially churches.
"The term "clockwise badger" likely refers to a limited edition watch model, specifically the Hautelence Vagabond X Black Badger". An appropriate timepiece for a vagabond cyclist

Probably doesn't make much difference tbh. Id tend to go clockwise but that's down to living close to the end of the pictish trail. Railway bailouts are possible in Dundee missing a big jaunt west into the prevailing wind

Clockwise also makes sense to me.
Easier to spell, but also, possibly more importantly, easier for me to get a train to Glasgow

Sean and myself did the badger to Inverness then full Pictish south from the top which is bloody ace, followed the John muir back to Glasgow. I think it would work either way tbh whichever u decide it will be good!! I
Heading up two weeks to do wild argyll or scd home, I need to move to Scotland
