Bikepacking in Scotland NCR7 & NCR 77

A wee video of a bike packing trip in Scotland on the Marin Nacassio+. I firmly believe Scotland is one of the best places to ride your bike in the world... as long as you get lucky with the weather. There is also a train station within a few miles of each end of the trip - so its easy to copy.

Great video Mark. Loved the Gartness bit brought back some memories. I remember standing on the fence watching that last train many years ago. 😂 ❤ Marks Mum.

Looks like an amazing trip! 🤩. Can you share the route? Rwgps or Strava?

Step 1, Get to milngavie (the south end of the west highland way) step 2, ride on the west highland way until Drymen. Step 3 go on to NCR 7 until just before Logierait. Step 4 ride to perth on NCR 77. Step 5 train to where you started (or NCR 775, then NCR 1, then John muir way, and it's a loop). Had no Strava or GPS this time :) There were some little detours in there too, but they were not far from the main route. (Eg through the Forrest at aberfoyle)
