Day 17 - Cairngorms Mountains - Part 1

Because of the skill and agility Bogey demonstrated during the introductory/evaluation ride the Bear took us on the previous day, he decided we were able to take on a challenging ride deep into a remote area of the Cairngorms mountains, Glen Feshie. We rode to forests and glens only accessible by riding through several miles of technical single-track trails. It was an extremely tough day and tested both our physical endurance (we ended up riding about 30 miles through wild, rough trails) and our mental toughness (we both crashed a few times). From the pictures, you’ll notice that we crossed a few rivers, including having to ford the River Feshie. We got wet, muddy and even acquired a few bruises and scrapes, but the reward was the unsurpassed beauty of the wild Scottish highlands.Les mer
