Oh, and we didn't take stoves or sleeping pads. Stayed in hotels each night, so travelled light. Since I'd lent one friend my carbon gravel/cross bike, and it turned out I'd seriously fucked up building the frame for my New Gravel Bike, I ended up on my old Croix de Fer.
35mm tyres and a lowest gear of 34/28 weren't ideal for parts of the ride...

Bit late reading it but thanks. We got back yesterday after smashing fuck out of the An Turas Mor route. Didn't get to Cape Wrath as ferryman was on hols but the whole thing was a great big adventure. Really cool. Will probably try and write a blog post about it. 430+ photos to look through first though and try to piece it all back together.

What was that like? We're taking the gravel bikes up soon to try and ride An Turas Mor which the GNT is based on up there. I'm trying unsuccessfully to test pack stuff I don't take racing, ie. waterproof trousers, waterproof socks, camping stove, full size sleep pad. Wondering what to leave home or maybe just spend a week wearing the waterproof trousers everywhere? Stupid bikepacking.
