It's always a struggle to get James to travel that far for biking as he has so much nearby from Stirling. I'm pleased to see though, that on this occasion I managed to coax himself and Jack up to Aviemore.

I thought that Upper Burnside would be a good safe bet, as there are plenty of trails to hit and they ride pretty good in most conditions.
