Equipment
For a short trip on a planned route, you will need a mountain bike, a helmet, high-visibility clothing, a map and compass/GPS, and plenty of water. For a longer trip, it would be useful to have a basic bicycle repair and first aid kit, sun cream, and a waterproof jacket (for the unpredictable Scottish weather!), insect repellent, and plenty to eat and drink. Always carry cash as cards may not be accepted in remote places.
