    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! 😁🤙

    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.

    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  Před rokem +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 👌

  • @davie2675
    @davie2675 Před rokem +1

    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  Před rokem

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

    • @davie2675
      @davie2675 Před rokem +1

      Just a bridge 😊 a very old one mind you

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  Před rokem

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

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

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  Před rokem

      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 👍
