The 2022 group start will be dedicated to the memory of Bruce Dinsmore who sadly passed away in November 2021.
Bruce was a good friend and avid mountain biker who accompanied me on many expeditions to the Highlands from 2005 to 2011. These trips gave me the knowledge to piece the HT550 route together. It was Bruce's idea to go through Fisherfield, although unfortunately he never got to ride that section or join the group start. Bruce will be fondly remembered by all that met him.
