You're a tough bugger Mr Wilkie - respect! At my age I prefer a slower pace with less time restrictions. Having not (yet) been to the Cairngorms, I'm in awe of the place. Thank you for sharing. What a beautiful bothy too - 5-star for a bothy.
Thanks Murray, great video as usual. I spent a few days hiking up there in the Cairngorms myself, camping at the Loch Morlich campground as a base to explore there, and made a couple of trips up there with the Army for the annual ski-training and the racing in poor snow conditions. Many many many years ago the 70's off course. Keep them coming thanks!
How a simple thing as a kick stand can make your day lol, loved this video which brought back some great memories of tomitoul, booked a hotel up there maybe 15 years ago, think it was the only there as I remember, old stone built hotel, stayed in the hotel one night and then spent 7 days just hiking around the Cairngorms national park and various places with my golden retriever, amazing place and views and great memories. Thank you
What a video. Absolutely epic. Watched with hubby and we thought we knew the Cairngorms pretty well, but we clearly don’t. Have walked from home in Nethy along the Ryvoan pass to Glenmore more times than I can remember. but have never turned left to Tomintoul which looks like it would be a great walk. I was shouting at the screen for you to stop cycling and put your tent up and get warm on that second night (like … as if you didn’t know to do that already 🙄😂). The quality of your clips is outstanding. Thanks for providing such great content.
What an adventure. Loved your first camping spot with the moon over the loch. Tough after that though, being so cold. I loved watching the vlog, thank you so much!
I enjoyed this film Murray as I did the same route this summer. It’s a toughie and I’m glad it wasn’t cold and snowy when I did it. That second day with all those stream crossings was gruelling. We pedalled for 12hrs and got to the White Bridge. The whole thing took us 2.5 days. A great little cycle. 🙏
It is a fantastic route - as you say maybe better in the longer days of summer (when dry as there are so many streams to cross ! lol ) the inner loop looks brutal too !!
@ It rained a lot for us. The streams were in spate and my friend and her bike nearly got washed away until I went back in and rescued her. 😳 The inner loop is unrideable - there are some funny TH-cam videos with people cursing all the way round. 🤣🤣
Wow...😊 Heyup old friend 💥. Not had much time lately for Le tube👋. I had a work accident broke a cervical vertebrae with compressed spinal cord and thoracic spinal deformation too. And a full time carer of a parent with diminishing Cognitive function too. So, when one watches utube with a narrow window one must watch cream of the crop😊.. Best wishes for the big man and may yer boots steam eternal 😮🎉💥💥🤲👍
It's a good job you know what you're doing x Certainly in that weather . I have the maps out, and Scottish Hill Tracks, and I'm still confused. Brilliant xx
I absolutely love these videos the scenery is just breathtaking, as someone who has retired because of arthritic knees it gets me out of the house so to speak. 😂
Well done 👍 Murray, a wee tip for you, put a couple of bin liners in your kit, handy to put over your boots if the river or burns are a wee bit deep, brilliant for keeping the feet dry 😁.
I like your idea of using an isolated burner. Too often I have found a good spot for camping...to see the place covered in charcoal from ground fires. It's really annoying.
Terrific effort Murray, A wee quibble . The right to roam has been legal since 1320, it's just a pity that we have such a lousy legal system. Creating any kind of hindrance is also illegal.

Looks like it’s one of those early in bed with a cup of tea to watch an epic Murray adventure Wednesday nights
That was terrific Murray. Intense at times but compulsive viewing. Thanks for showing us around a wonderful part of Scotland.
As always excellent photography another enjoyable Wednesday blog, Thank you for sharing.. The can do attitude is admirable.
How many kilometers per Scotch Egg does a Murray get? 😆 I loved every minute of this adventure through the Cairngorms. Cheers, and ATB!
Excellent!

hiked and biked a lot of your route , well done you and thanks for putting in the effort , cheers from Brechin
Well worth the wait..Great video Murray
Brilliant trip through Scotland’s Mountains 🏔️ ! The campsite in the forest under the full moon was spectacular 🌕! Loved the longer video too!
Love the shout-out for Sydney Scroggie. His episode of Weir's Way is essential viewing.

@ I definitely wouldn’t fancy some of those river crossings after rain ! Well done to you both for getting it done 👍👍

Very enjoyable as ever. Looked an excellent 3 day adventure if a bit Baltic 🥶at times. Need to get the gravel bike up there 😀
I absolutely love these videos the scenery is just breathtaking, as someone who has retired because of arthritic knees it gets me out of the house so to speak. 😂

I’m a simple man, I see a long distance trip, I like!
Thanks Keiren - hope you enjoy the video - Twas a fine adventure around the Cairngorms:)
@ Aye, I was down Glen Feshie a few weeks back and heading up to The Hutchie this weekend, Cairngorms truly a special place, atb!
I like your idea of using an isolated burner. Too often I have found a good spot for camping...to see the place covered in charcoal from ground fires. It's really annoying.
Great effort, did the same the other way round last year. Not easy!
It’s a memorable trip (with one or two stream crossings !) hope it was dry when you did it 🤞👍
Terrific effort Murray, A wee quibble . The right to roam has been legal since 1320, it's just a pity that we have such a lousy legal system. Creating any kind of hindrance is also illegal.
an hour, well sign me up! ...someone please hold my cup of tea, I've got a video to watch
Thanks Rick - hope you enjoy the video (and tea :)
Thanks for watching
