Recent overuse means I need to rest my knee for a couple of weeks, so no hill running or hillwalking in the meantime. I've got a lovingly maintained 28 year old non-suspension mountain bike and enjoy riding it on tracks (and quiet roads) in the mountains. Have found that a double-dashed route on the OS - usually Landrover track - is fine, but anything more path-like tends to involve on-off the bike which is a faff. I'm looking for recommendations for routes of a reasonable length - say 20 miles at an absolute minimum but preferably a fair bit more - in the Scottish hills. (Happy to do maybe up to 80 miles on such terrain.) Circular is preferable, but wouldn't say no to there-and-back routes if they're good!
Thanks in advance! Currently in Edinburgh but moving to Inverness at the weekend so NW Highlands will be an option too.
