Me and [url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/profile/riklegge ]riklegge[/url] off of here went to Scotland last week to muck about on our bikes and watch some racing. It rained a lot, but we had a good time and rode over some proper mountains. I even put some footage of real bike riding from the World Cup in to make our own bimblings look even more hilarious.

That looks bloody great. My wife is organising our Scotland camping trip at the moment. She mentioned Peebles, I said book it! Then she mentioned Fort William. Book it!

Nice video, reminds me of some of the dudes of hazzard videos with the shakyish footage and videos of the small things like the camping and when you're driving etc. Enjoyed it.

Heading up there in 2 weeks time for the SDA, favourite race of the year, spending 5 days up there so hopefully get some nice weather and plenty done

Nice video. I rode Bridge of Orchy to Kinlochleven today, and apart from the push up Devils Staircase which did my back no favours, it was a brilliant day. What fun that ride down to the pipeline is 🙂

Yep, love the run down to Kinloch. One day I might even get to ride it when it's not peeing it down. It's worth riding it the other way too, not bad as a climb and the drop back down into Glencoe is smashing.

Camping was fun, even in the weather we had - take lots of midge repellant though!

I went up it the other way a few months ago, but too much snow above the penstock so I gave up. The ride down to the A82 would be fun though, definitely.
