How Hard Can It Be To Explore Scotland’s Last Great Wilderness? A Journey by Mountain Bike and Boat

In Episode 5 of Season 2 we’re going on a true epic! Starting in Mallaig over 3 days we’ll make our way to Sheil Bridge. Riding untamed Singletrack and discovering what’s classed as the last great wilderness in Scotland. We stay in a Bothy and a disused sheep shelter as well as visit the most remote pub in the whole of the UK. It’s a testing ride and one that I won’t forget! Enjoy…
In this episode I’m riding my SCOTT Genius Tuned equipped with Shimano XTR, a Fox 36 Grip 2 Fork and Schwalbe Magic Mary and Nobby Nic Tires.

Brilliant ride looks tough going but some stunning scenery 🫡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🔥

Was certainly tough but similarly some great sections in there!

Absolutely outstanding. Always like the safety message you include. CZcams can be very misleading. Brilliant again Scotty. D&L

Have you never thought about an ebike for these days out Scotty? You would have so much more fun. Far less pushing and a lot more riding. Scott e patron would be ideal for these days out..

[@ScottyLaughland]

It’s a point but regardless I think a lot of it would still unfortunately be unrideable on them. In places it’s so steep you couldn’t ride and in others Path is so deteriorated you couldn’t ride. If anything I think the Lumen might be the answer, extra power yet light enough to carry when you have to!

[@allynferguson2366]

Very good point. It's not much fun carrying a full fat ebike. Well regardless what your riding keep doing what your doing. Great content and a great way for others to see some of the beautiful places Scotland has to offer..
