Cycling back to Dalwhinnie by jamibann

Cycling back to Dalwhinnie

3.20 pm, Thursday. Cycling back to pick up the car and move camp to Loch Arkaig, crossing everything that 'our' road was indeed open again. We took a slightly different route with the bikes - staying on larger track, even though it was a little further. It made for easier, and probably safer, cycling! The bikes are much less stable when weighed down at the back with panniers. I did actually come off mine on the edge of the gravel road, but as I was going uphill and fairly slowly I managed to stay upright as my bike capsized on me - no harm done!
Gorgeous moment… such a beautiful view
Glad you’re ok…

Great story telling image and narrative. Pleased you are OK from the fall.

Good to hear you didn't have a serious injury.

Wonderful capture and scene. Gravel roads are not ideal for biking sometimes, glad nothing serious happened.

I cant imagine cycling with that load on board

Glad you weren't hurt! Every photo of yours is full of adventure. I admire that.

Climb a mountain and then cycle. Phew, you probably won't end up at my age seeing stairs as a challenge.

A challenging ride. Glad you were not injured in the fall. Ego intact!

Nice!

A wonderful scene. It would be so ironic if after all the hiking you've done you ended up getting injured on your bike! Glad all is ok.

That’s a load and a lovely capture

Super shot and composition

The gravel road is very treacherous. You can get stuck in it. Both the panniers and the backpack raise the center of gravity a lot. Lovely scene and leading line.

Finely tuned balance there! Have to keep your eyes on the road……gravel too not the best surface! That’s a fine bridge & the track looks quite recently renewed. A fantastic view in front of John.

Bicycling would seem to me to be a good way to make some time on a reasonably flat path. You are indeed loaded down.
September 23rd, 2024  
Nice shot, glad you were unhurt.

Glad to know you avoided injury but goodness- what's next- hang gliding off a munro back to the car? You two are truly awesome!
