Cool, which version did you do? Presumably the mountain bike one rather than the C2C thing. Did you use the guidebook? Just wondering cos we're thinking of doing it week after next.

I did almost do it a few years ago, but it was insanely wet and we nearly drowned in the Lakes. Reckoned someone was trying to tell us something so ran away.

Don't see why MTBing shouldn't get a mention here, it is an outdoors site after all. I still wonder about the guy who purportedly took a bike over the Cuillin Ridge. Was it true?

If it took six days then it <b>must</b> have been the St.Bees to Robin Hood's Bay version.

I would've thought that a bike would've done it quicker than that. I walked it fairly leisurely in 12 days. Leisurely means always having an hour or two, after setting up camp and eating to talk, or do other things.

Glen Affric's certainly recommended Damon. I was there last June.

Don't neglect the bike though, it comes in handy to help with the long walk in, or more particularly the walk out.
