A mountain bike is a great way to get round the Galloway Hills in SW Scotland. The Merrick is the highest hill on the Scottish mainland south of Ben Lomond. Its summit is still iced in the last of the winter snows.
Starting from the car park at the Bruce's stone above Loch Trool, we covered 28km and 900 metres of ascent and decent.

You can stay up all night analysing the data.
Murray, it's great to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great visit south to the 7 Stanes. If you can, try and visit the western ones as well. I particularly like Dalbeattie red, Kirroughtree red and Glen Trool blue.
AS a fellow gadget freak, I had already spotted your new gadgets on your blog. Sadly, I cannot run anywhere. When we go into the forest we bike, the dogs run! I would need a "caninerunner" (tm) GPS!
