Day off today so Sue and I took off on our mountain bikes through the forests and up and around Scolty/Gouach/Trustach hills. Rained a bit, but mostly warm and was great to be in t shirt and shorts again after the past couple weeks of really rubbish weather. I was fairly pleased with how I went on the hills - the mileage is paying off. Came a cropper only once on a technical section but that's fine because I'm not a technical rider :) It was a great ride, we righted the world on the firetracks and burnt off some angst on the singletrack and long climbs. Fantastic views from the top over to Lochnagar and Clach na Beinn. A great afternoon to finish off an otherwise crap day.
2hrs 52 mins, 19.53 miles (inc ride home) with 1961ft of ascent.
