The eagerly anticipated annual mass motor cycle gathering Thunder in the Glens takes place this weekend in and around Aviemore, bringing thousands from far and wide to the Highlands.
Thunder in the Glens (TIG) attracts between 3,000 and 4,000 riders from all over the continent, and many more spectators.
With a roar that can be heard for miles around, the ride-outs around Speyside set hearts and pulses racing with excitement.
TIG started with 200 riders in 1996.
Nowadays it can top 4,000 motorcycle enthusiasts.
The four day event offers camping, live music and more than 60 stalls to keep bikers and visitors entertained.
TIG is highly populated with Harley Davidsons, as it’s run by the Dunedin Chapter Scotland (#9083) of the Harley Owners Group, based in Edinburgh.
But there are plenty of other makes in attendance as our gallery below shows.
Proceeds from TIG go to local charities, and the event makes a multi-million contribution to the local economy.
