Mini Bio

Based in the United Kingdom, I have been called Cube far longer than my ‘normal’ name. I have worked and climbed as a mountain guide for the last 30 years in various capacities in many parts of the world including where I live in the local Cairngorm Mountains.

In my spare time, I have also explored UK’s coasts in my sea kayak and on a tandem bicycle with my partner Shona.

Favourite Place to Play

Road biking across the UK, loads of permutations in this varied and scenic landscape.

Once upon a time, I used to go to work in a suit.

Absolutely loved Cube and Dave. They made the trip fun. I learned so much about Scottish history and cycling from them. When the rides were challenging they lent encouragement. I would ride any tour with them.

Jim and Cube were such great guides! They obviously really love what they do, and their passion for cycling was contagious.

Guided - Alasdair (Cube) and Jim were both professional, but Cube's understated knowledge, humour and calm were wonderful to have on the trip!
