Ah,Ben Bhraggie...my absolute favourite place to ride...good fun but hard work on a normal bike but an Ebike makes it so much more enjoyable...haven't been for a while as my bike is off for repair...again! I can just about squeeze 3 runs out of my battery too. Balblair is another great spot to ride if u haven't already tried it.

Up the back way down the front. Corriehabbie hill accross from it better still get a 20 miler if you add cooks cairn as well. Firish would be worth a blast did it 20 years ago be great now on the ebike. Aye waiting for my Levo to break bound to happen.

Love the trails at Golspie. I joined their Facebook page and paid for a yearly pass to help with the trail maintenance 12D3297D-5FF5-45AD-B3C2-35D1935A90FF.jpeg
My bike is currently with CRC, been gone since mid August apparently it should be returned next week with a new motor, these trails are on the to do list as is Balblair once it’s back and running

Yeah Golspie is great and it not easy there’s a bit near the top that is really rough and I always think “it’ll be nice once it’s finished “
I actually think it has got harder over time or maybe I’m just getting old, but most places kind of fill in over time I think all the rock stops it from changing too much.
Three times is pretty good I’ve managed 2xs but I’ve got a spare battery now so I’d like to go for 3. A mate of mine did it 6 times top to bottom and he doesn’t have an ebike!!?

Impressive 6 like i did 3 times it was 24 miles on mission control so that's double he did. I used to do 2 on ordinary bike. Up and down in 1 hour now on ebike i used to take that to get up. 2 half hour drive for me each way so took van and had a day doing something else next day. Happy days.

He did it mid summer so he had the daylight, just checked his strava 71.5 km and 2200m of climbing that would be impressive with a chairlift never mind an ebike and he did it all under his own steam?

Wow...6 laps! I thought two was not bad going before I got my Ebike!
Good on him,must of been enjoying it!
Some bits are really rough but the sommet copes so much better than my normal trail bike but I do think if you do a lot of these kinds of miles...jumps,drops etc the motor will fail fairly quickly...
Ian...hope your bike arrives soon,mine is with them too but it's 'only' been a month so I've got a while to wait yet...

Agree lot of punishment going through the bike there and other serious places as well i know they are supposed to take it but doubt it.
