Bike: Decathlon Triban RC450
Upgrades: Shimano GRX400 46-30 front chainring and Tiagra 10 speed gears (34-11), Carbon seat post, Redshift stem.
Day 1: about 65 miles and 3,000 feet climbs taking me thorgh Glasgow and over the Highalnd Boundary Fault line and Dukes Pass (gravel option). Camped overnight at Loch Drunkie – beautiful spot and so serene.
Day 2: Same kind of distance again. Up in the hills after Callander and up the length of Loch Tay to Kenmore and to Pitlochry for train home.
Great quality quiet roads, gravel trails and off road tarmac trails for the full 130 miles mostly following NCR 7. Weather wasn't the best but didn't seem to bother me, great fun and would recommend it.
