Battleship grey skies greet the Mikes Bikes crew in Aviemore and offer stark contrast to the warm glow of the famous Mountain Café, the meeting point for today’s venture.

The Mikes Bikes contingent of Sally, Euan and Bruce is bolstered by Georgia from the UK’s branch of the Big S, out today to scalp her first Scottish peak.
