Bikepacking across the Scottish Highlands - An Turas Mor day 8

Описание: Day 8 bikepacking solo and unsupported from Glasgow, Scotland to the north coast. Following An Turas Mor, a mostly off-road route through remote parts of the highlands. I'm getting up into the most remote northern reaches of the Highlands here, and looking forward to reaching my destination!

This was a bit of a 'stretch' adventure for me: my longest, in days and miles; the most challenging surfaces and terrain I've ridden, and the most isolated. I spent a lot of time reconnecting with myself too - after some mental health difficulties this solo immersion in the changing landscape gave me some time and space to reflect and heal.

I rode this in aid of Centrepoint, an amazing charity for homeless young people in the UK. They support more than 10,000 homeless 16-25 year olds into a home and a job every year; if you enjoy this series and would like to donate you can do so here: https://centrepoint.org.uk/support-us...
