 You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Hatching a cunning plan for the gorms, anyone with experience of the Larigh Ghru north of Corour bothy, i have a feeling there is a lot of pushing involved, yay or nay.
far too much carrying..............but worth it for the bragging rights.
Yeah, I walked it a few years back - remember thinking it would be a bit of a mission on the bike!
Yup pushing all the way for about 4k. total boulder field. would also be a pain in the derrière pushing, I'd only try it if I was very fit (but I'm not.
can be really muddy from white Bridge up to the bothy, just to add to the fun 🙂
Any excuse to post this :wink::
Yes, you will have to carry ... alot. However it is worth it IMO.
EDIT: Here is the route though we ended up doing it in a single day:

My thats a big day out!
Cheers for that Fraser looks epic, just out of curiosity how long did the section north of the bothy take you.
Fergal - I think from the Bothy over to Rothiemurchus took about 5 hours.
The singletrack down the North side of the Lairig Ghru (from about 1.50 in the video) is fantastic
