Default Disabled mountain biking in Scotland.

Yes, really! The 7stanes has developed suitable trails for disabled access,
allowing those with disabilities to enjoy off-road cycling.

This was good to read about.

Not necessarily off-road, but I always remember going for a walk from
above Kinlochleven out to the Blackwater dam on top of the aqueduct that
carries the water from the dam to the top of the pipes which feed the
HEP station. This was a walk of about 11 miles there and back along the
flat 2 or 3 metre wide covering for the aqueduct. I did wonder why it
wasn't developed for wheelchair and bike access into the countryside.
