Bike Valley Scotland

What a day for a local lunchtime escape. Scottish summer at its best. Pentland rides are great fun, every time again.

Nice starting point for a bikepacking adventure!

The new West Highland bike carriages have arrived! 🚂🚴

It’s a few weeks ago now but we had a good weekend with Ridelines MTB during MTB Level 2 leadership training. New friends, new ideas and lots to learn.

Two weeks ago but still feeling the energy- two days with a bunch of nice women doing a Rider2Leader course at Glentress.

I think John Muir nailed it when he said “Keep close to nature’s heart and break clear away once in a while”. Even if it’s just for a day.

Inspiring day in East Lothian, meeting new people and learning new skills. Thanks to for a great course.

So good to see the Tweed Valley in the news, and even better to hear that the Enduro World Series will be back in 2022.

Some of the world's best riders visit Innerleithen to tackle the tricky trails of the Tweed Valley.

Went out today to find the flowering heather, but had to realise that I was a little late. Not much proper purple left, however the ride was nice anyway.

Nice day out in Falkirk taking in some of the landmarks. There is always something new to discover.

The Tweed Valley doesn’t only deliver by day ... what a great experience to watch the moon rising over Minch Moor and camp the night out in good company.

Exciting news for bikepackers 😊 up to 20 bikes will fit on this train. It even has got an e-bike charger on board. Let’s go!

Just a wee Sunday afternoon local spin in the Pentlands. Thought I might spot on the last stretch of the Capital trail.

What a week- what a weather- Scottish summer really delivers 😊 it was nice to ride a little further afield and the Trossachs offer some great trails with fine Scottish landscape.

26/06/2021

Exploring new routes in the Valley today- it was really ‘mist’ical in places.

Up on Gypsy Glen freedom seems infinite.

Nice ride in good company today. Lovely to take visitors from the Lake District onto some favourite local trails.

25/04/2021

What a glorious weekend. Shame it can’t be extended for a couple of days. Hope you all managed to get out and enjoy the sunshine.

Just couldn’t stop smiling today. It felt so amazing to be back in the Tweed Valley. Lovely afternoon ride in Cardrona Forest and over the hills. Haven’t felt as good for a while. Plenty more to come. Hope you all got out as well?

First ride of the year in shorts - what a start to the Easter weekend. Trails are drying up nicely and it was great to get to the higher grounds again.

21/03/2021

Spring has sprung today. Weather could not be any better. Smell of wild garlic mixed with sea air lifts the spirits. Shame for the litter on the beach but managed to take it home in bike bags.

14/03/2021

What’s better than a nice Mother’s Day ride in good company? Lot’s of chatter and laughter, a coffee on the way and 30km is fine local riding.

07/03/2021

Riding local means that some of the routes are the same by now but there are always new perspectives. Looking forward to the lush spring green.

21/02/2021

What a difference to last week. Snow has disappeared and temperatures are more spring-like. Looking forward to a great biking season.

13/02/2021

Making the most of the amazing weekend- might be the last snow for the season? ! Really enjoying the winter rides now.

31/01/2021

Quite chuffed with today’s ride. I didn’t expect to find that much snow in the hills anymore. First proper snow ride in my life. Good to experience new things.

Tempting to explore this by bike - Scotland at its best- at least for January.

Slowly coming out of hibernation. Still local- still fun.
