Kingussie is a great cycling hub
Kingussie just happens to be in the middle of Scotland’s land mass or from a cycling perspective you could say it is at the very “hub” of Scotland. It is the venue for the Scottish Bikeathon, in aid of charity, which has been held in June for over 20 years. More recently this has been extended to a weekend cycling event through the creation of Bikefest Scotland, held on the day before the Bikeathon.
