This wee book stands in humble tribute to Dr Colin Begg – aka the ‘Ayrshire Missile’.

Acknowledgements

Huge thanks to my companions on the trail: Colin Begg, Sean Botha, Chris Boyd, Daniela Brawley, Brett Collins, Finlay Finlay, Gareth Gordon, Mark Jones and Fiona Rintoul. Thanks to master wrencher, Carl Lottering-Geeson at Bikelove in Glasgow (www.bikelove.co.uk), for keeping my battered bikes trailworthy. Thanks to Sean Benz, author of Mountain Biking in West and North West Scotland (published by Cicerone), for invaluable insights. Thanks also to the team at Cicerone for transforming my words and pictures into such a lovely wee book.

Thanks once again to my wife, the lovely Fiona Rintoul, for her largely unconditional support, logistical and otherwise. Mountain biking with Labradors is not a great idea.
