We did the Pictish Trail from www.bikepacking.com. We did it on a tandem so sometimes we came off the route to make up a bit of ground as the off road sections take longer on a tandem. We stuck to it for the big sections of off road, but if the route dipped off road for a short section just to take in a bit of singletrack we would just stick to the road.
We did it on our Landescape tandem, fully loaded.
If we came off the Pictish Trail route we made our way following a Sustrans route which was also spectacular.
Some businesses that I would like to give a shoutout to include.
The Windhaven Camping, B&B and Cafe - They also rescue seal pups under the charity - Caithness Seal Rehab and rescue. It would really help them out if you could make a donation.

The Glenesk Folk Museum - An independent museum that is showing the history and what life was like in the Glen. Again these are completely independent and any help you can provide would be amazing. Their hospitality and advice was very welcome after going over Fungle Road with the tandem.

The Lunan Bay Campsite and Cafe. Again really friendly people and the campsite was lovely. Right next to the really peaceful bay.

@lunanbayfarm4972
@PathLessPedaledTV for the partypace patches that adorn our framepacks.
@BIKEPACKINGcom Hew and Annie from topofest and a girl outside for the route.
www.bicycles-by-design.co.uk/ for the Landescape frame that I built up. We are going to contact you to get a @co-motioncycles7269 tandem frame that I can put a @rohloffrabe gear hub on it to make it near indestructible. As going forward all our tours together will be on a tandem.
