    Great day out, brilliant mix of riding all in one day. Must have been good having the ebike for that one.

      Yeah mate. It was day one of three days of riding. The ebike was great. Big day without fatigue. Meant the next two days were really good 👍

    Bit late to this one 😂. Absolutely smashing video mate, drone shots are epic in that scenery. I love a big day in the hills, particularly when taking in some quality trails 👌

    Wonderful production Jamie. We did the Burma Road Sluggan Bridge loop on our Aviemore tour last year in glorious weather and lived it. Cheers. Stoozer.

    Nice one Jamie burma road has some cracking views expecially on a sunny day like that. The burma singletrack descent is also a good one to do. 👌👍

      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I watched your vid before I went! That descent looked good bud 👌

    When first going mtbing in Aviemore thought about trying Burma Road but ended up going to Badaguish instead. Great to see it, ideal for a big bike day out in the wilderness, On my list to try along with Corrieyairack Pass, Torridon and Glen Kinglass. Well ridden on High Burnside, ace video and thanks for sharing! 😁🤙

      Thanks mate. I need to get back to Torridon!!!

    I did almost exactly that 2 years ago it was made by the weather as I wouldn't fancy being up there in the open if the weather turned. Did you go as far as Sluggan? Bridge It was worth the wee detour.

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think so. What was at Sluggan?

    • @davie2675
      @davie2675 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just a bridge 😊 a very old one mind you

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah nice. I don't think we made it that far as I don't remember an old bridge 👍

    Great video as always. I'll be heading there start of May to do this route , just got my first ebike , what was the battery did you're ride have 650 or 750 ?

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks bud. The eeb has a 350 watt hours battery! Incredible eh? Only weighs 17.9kg though. Not much more than an enduro bike 👌

    That Motorhome at the bottom of High Burnside was us. I ended up doing Nazi Gold and a few other trails. Was such a nice day!

    Great video….scenery looked amazing…..just a shame you had to say “ ebiking is cheating “……very disappointing

    • @streetpigeonmtb

      Hi Bobby. I think you are hearing what you want to hear. I said 'I'm kinda cheating a wee bit' not 'ebiking is cheating'.
      As someone who doesn't own and ebike and only pedals I did feel like I was cheating a wee bit I.e. making things easier than they were.
      At no point did I say thay ebiking is cheating or say anything against ebikers.
      I honestly couldn't care what type of bikes folks ride. As long as folks have a bike that they get out on it's all good 👍
