    This cross-country route is fantastic:

    Not one to do on your own though, and certainly not in winter. If you're interested I might be able to find some .gpx files.

    This sounds awesome. I couldn't see a route map in the article at all? Do you know if there is one, or GPS files?

    Oooh - this looks like my commute :wink:

    Sounds like a good route - the bit around Aviemore I know well and the Great Glen route follows the Maggie's Bike n Hike route by the sound of it.

    If I can help with local knowledge (especially the bits around Inverness) then let me know.

    Sorry, not logged on over the christmas period much. We actually used the information in the article to trace a route: there are enough clues if you use something like memory map to follow it.

    If you PM me your email address I'll see if I can get you some GPX files.

    This is not a route to tackle on your own. I'd recommend at least three of you. We did it as a group of five with backup driver. It was fantastic: the trip of a lifetime and something I'll always remember.
