Westwards we could see what we reckoned was Beinn Dearg, which doesn't look very exciting from this angle. It is in fact a very gentle, elongated whaleback, and from this angle we were looking at it sideways on. Ruth had climbed it just a couple of weeks before also by cycling for the first part. However in contrast to Glen Tilt she didn't recommend this as a very pleasant cycle ride - mostly quite steep and rough, and probably better for walking - unless you're one of those strange mountain bikers of course!
