The Falls of Tarf in upper Glen Tilt is an absolutely magical spot. With waterfalls, gorgeous wild swimming pools and even a camp spot this was the highlight of my mountain bike circuit of Beinn a’ Ghlo yesterday. Let’s hope it stays pristine. Full write up now on the blog. #highlandperthshire #fallsoftarf #glentilt
Bloomin’ heather. Yesterday’s circuit of Beinn a’ Ghlo - a ‘classic’ MTB route that’s really not far off the beaten track but was almost deserted (where was everyone?). #MTB #perthshire #beinnaghlo #mountains
Cycling the Scottish C2C - new post now on my blog Wildaboutscotland.com #cycletouring #cycling #scotland #scotlandisnow #adventure #wildcamping #mynevisport
Back home after cycling the Scottish C2C + today’s ride home. Particularly enjoyed seeing the parts of the country you miss by car - plus hearing that familiar “da-doh” across the old Forth Road Bridge one more time #cycletouring #scottishc2c #cycling
I’ve been to Leith hundreds of times but cycling through it gives a new perspective. Here’s my top 3 experiences today. 1) The Trinity Tunnel is just one sight along the network of traffic-free cycle paths on disused rail lines. A revelation. 2) Sunday afternoon cricket on Leith Links 3) Cooling off with an ice cream sundae and iced coffee (ok, this was Porty promenade but the benefit lasted right through Leith) #leith #cycletouring #cycling #scottishc2c
Having started by following the River Annan yesterday and today have all been about the River Tweed. From a fast-flowing stream near its source high in the hills north of Moffat it gradually becomes a carefree teenager at Tweedsmuir, a sensible 30-something at Peebles and a calmed-down 40-something at Innerleithen. I turned north at that point instead of following its journey to the sea. What other cycle routes follow a river’s lifecycle? #scottishc2c #SC2C #cycletouring
