Celebrating turning 35... Oh and I didn’t just eat too much cake - there’s a wee one hiding in there too ❤️ . 6 months in and it’s been quite a journey. Whist I had high hopes I’d keep pedalling away, I was woman down for the first four months with constant nausea and intense tiredness. No endurance race could match this one. Thankfully I’ve emerged out the other side and back on my feet (and the bike!) . Oh and there’s no better reason to get on an e-bike 😉 I might be chronically slow otherwise, but there’s no holding me back on this bad boy! . . . #birthdayride #bikes #baby #babydue #GOREWear #birthday #ridebikes #womensmtb #pregnantcyclist #womenscycling #ebike #scottbikes #cycling #lovebikes #cairngorms #aviemore #trails #cyclinglife

Ah well Scotland, if you insist on pissing with rain, at least I can be happy I have this wee number to keep me dry. Big thanks @gorewear @goretexeu - my weekend at the UCI MTB World Cup was saved by the magic of ShakeDry! . . 📷 @rossbellphoto . #GOREWear #AlwaysEvolve . ##whereissummer #scottishsummer #rainrainrain #rainraingoaway #scotland #cycling #gravelbikes #womenscycling #cyclist #lifebehindbars #rider #gravelrider #scottishcycling #outdoors #lifeoutdoors #lovecycling #cyclinglife #bikes #lovebikes #bikerider

Nothing beats a bit of bothy TV and a well earned wee beer! #flashbackfriday to our first night cosied up by the Blackburn bothy fire on the Badger Divide - a long, tough day in the saddle. We definitely deserved these cans! . Off to Fort William in the early hours tomorrow for the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup - and very excited to launch this creation... MTBeer! Come say hello - I’ll be dotting about between the bar and the track. . . . #bikepackinglife #bothy #scottishbothy #GOREWear #AlwaysEvolve #bikepackers #bikepackingadventures #scottishhighlands #bothylife #bike #mtb #womensmtb #ridelife #lifebehindbars #fire #enduranceriding #mtbgirl #adventure #explore #badgerdivide #bikepack #bothytime #bikesandbeer #MTBeer #beer #craftbeer

After several attempts to get this photo (not everyone is keen on keeping heads in the shot) we got it after arriving at Kelvingrove! We didn’t meet anyone called Bodger, but we did find one Badger 😀 and the best I could do was chips (lots of) - not mashed potato. What a ride! 🦡 ❤️🚲 . . . #bikepackinglife #GOREWear AlwaysEvolve #mountainbikers #bikepackers #missgrapepeople #missgrape #bikepacking #badgerdivide #enduranceriding #adventure #mtbgirl #womensmtb #outside #lifebehindbars #mtb #bikes #cycling #girlsholiday #invernesstoglasgow #bikeriders

Thankful for my @gorewear ShakeDry on day three of riding the Badger Divide.... 🦡 . Riding towards Glen Lyon we spotted a band of bikepackers coming towards us, then it clicked. The HT550 had begun! Happy getting to hold the gates and cheer those hardy folks on. We’ve been glued to the dots since! . . . #bikepackinglife #adventure #GOREWear #AlwaysEvolve #mtb #explore #thebadgerdivide #mountainbikers #bikepackers #bikepacking #scotland #rain #missgrape #missgrapepeople #scottbikes #mountainhardwear #ridebikes #lovemtb #smilesformiles #outsideisfree #getoutside #mtbgirl #womensmtb

Despite being only minutes from the legendary @corrourstationhouse, ready to smash in several cakes and cups of coffee, we couldn’t resist this wee spot, overlooking Loch Ossian on day two of our search for badgers...🦡 What a beaut! . . . #bikepackinglife #bikepacker #GOREWear #AlwaysEvolve #scotland #scottishhighlands #thebadgerdivide #bikepacking #bikes #womensmtb #girlswhoride #womensmtb #smilesformiles #cyclist #loch #view #outside #explore #adventure #girlsholiday #highlands #bikepackers #missgrape #missgrapepeople #lifeonthetrails #trails #lovenature #nature
