I just wanted to get a few opinions on an occurrence from last weekend.
I decided to just do a low level walk as I was taking my wee four-legged friend along and although she has done a lot of hill walking I tend not to take her up high now.
I decided to walk from Linn O' Dee along the path to the white bridge and down towards the Bynack Lodge ruin. On the return back I could not believe it when I saw a motorbike heading towards us. I know the track we were on would be classed as a Land Rover track and if I saw an estate vehicle on it carrying out duties related to the working of the land I would not complain obviously but this was an ordinary road motorcycle ridden by someone who had decided that he wanted to go up the glen but not exert himself on foot or pushbike.
I personally thought this was pretty outrageous and called him an inconsiderate effin idiot and again when he came back past us about 10 minutes later. His helmet and engine probably prevented him from hearing my words but hopefully my glower helped convey my dismay.
He wasn't flying along at speed or anything but I still thought that a motorbike anywhere on these kind of paths would be a no no. I've certainly never seen that before in a lot of years walking the hills.
So am I right in my condemnation of the fella in the power ranger suit? Or would his actions be considered acceptable?
