Loch Lomond Gravel Loop

[@ianstewart8301]

Thanks for Sharing your beautiful and hard ride! I’d love to do that loop.

[@specializeddoug]

We will be doing it again, hopefully on a nice Spring day, when I’ve got a bit of fitness and can find my big boy pants again. 😀

Cheers @jeranemo5504. That’s a great route.

Spectacular landscape for a ride. I’m genuinely jealous 😁

[@specializeddoug]

It was really quite stunning @jhnnsr. Looking forward to doing it again in the springtime.

What a beautiful route. Looked like great fun! 😊👍

[@specializeddoug]

It is a very nice but challenging route CC&C.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[@specializeddoug]

You too Tommy. See you in the Springtime. 🎅

[@rumahtommy]

Thank you Doug and Brandon for a great time out !, absolutely knackered on this one😅. Looking forward to doing this again better prepared 🤣.

[@specializeddoug]

Was good to see you again Tommy. We’ll do it again in the Springtime and hopefully you’ll be back over here, and yes we’ll be better prepared next time as we’ve got a much better idea of what the route holds for us.

Great video, thanks. I've often wondered how much walking is involved along Loch Lomond...

[@specializeddoug]

Hi @jonathangreen. There are probably about 4 sections you need to hike a bike. One has a little bit of work in it and is probably 60 yards long uphill. It was ok with a normal bike but would be harder with a heavier e-bike.

[@jonathangreen7111]

@specializeddoug Thanks. Will give it a try next Spring.

[@ootnboots]

Good stuff Doug , looked a nice route for the better weather.. New sub ..

[@specializeddoug]

Top man @ootnboots. Thanks for Subscribing, hope you enjoy the videos.

[@chrisjepson8071]

Good effort all. Look forward to doing that one with you next time.

[@specializeddoug]

Cheers Chris. It’s a tough route and the Comer descent is a real challenge but I’d like to do it again in nicer weather

[@avrildekker20]

Looks fantastic - do you have a gpx you could share? Thanks.

How much pushing did you have to do along Loch Lomond side? It is a long time since I've walked that bit and I wasn't thinking about cycling at the time. p.s. I thought you had bitten off a big one by attempting that route at this time of year! Major kudos to all involved.

[@specializeddoug]

Cheers HDW. The pushing wasn’t too onerous. I would say around 5-10 mins maximum. It was a great adventure of a day to be honest.

[@HughDWallace]

@@specializeddoug Cheers. It looks like an epic route.
