November 22, 2023 - (Givisiez, Switzerland) For the fourth instalment of Trail e-Xplorer, Holger Meyer embarks on his biggest undertaking yet, meeting up with Scottish mountain biking guru and icon, Scotty Laughland, for a truly epic adventure showcasing the greatest trails on offer in Scotland.
Both riding the lightweight downcountry Lumen eRIDEs, Scotty and Holger leave no stone unturned, no coffee unenjoyed and no haggis uneaten on their quest to experience the crème de la crème of eMTB trails in Scotland.
Trail E-XPLORER Episode 4
I might be biased, but to me Scotland is still one of the best places in the world to ride mountain bikes. Drive through the country and the landscape is ever changing – from rolling hills and luscious forests to jagged mountains. It’s an outdoor-lover’s paradise, and the best part is that all of it is accessible to those willing to venture out with their bike – or in this case an eBike!
Joining me on this trip would be Holger Meyer, for whom I have planned an adventure of a lifetime. Over 6 days we’d explore what I’d class as the 7 best riding locations in Scotland and immerse ourselves in the rich Scottish culture, cuisine and coffee.
This epic trip would be made ever so slightly more manageable by the SCOTT Lumen eRIDE, and Holger and I had built ourselves custom, more ‘beefed’ up versions of the bike to mix down country with trail, both rocking 140mm forks on the front.
