Here's one for all you mountain bikers out there!
The Harris Mountain Festival organisers have added a couple of mountain bike events this year - both on Saturday 10th September.
There is a race over the Hebridean Cycle Challenge off-road section Meavaig to Bowglas, then on over Clisham old road to Maaruig, through Glen Lacasdail to Urgha and finishing in Tarbert. A superbly challenging route - for those who don't fancy it as a race then how about taking part just for the challenge! Transport will be provided from Tarbert to the start at Meavaig.
The other event is a guided mtb tour over the cycle challenge route from Meavaig to Scaladale centre.
