Carry on biking on the high Cairngorms - you'll only spoil it for everyone else because eventually, when SNH or the Park Authority or whoever decides it's unacceptable they'll bring in bye-laws to stop it.
So nobody should cycle there, because if they do then bye-laws will be brought in meaning no one can cycle there... Seems rather circular logic to me.
Any form of access can become unacceptable in time. For example, visitor pressure at Stonehenge means it's now closed to the public. If it had always been closed to the public, would that have been better?
I don't see any particular reason to not cycle in the High 'Gorms *period*. In fact it's the sort of thing that few enough will do that it's unlikely to make much of a dent, almost certainly less than the far greater numbers of walkers do. And the terrain up there is ideal for not carving a single rut.
