Fastest day yet. 70 miles in 5 hours and I was finished and in the aviemore youth hostel by 3 pm!!!
Another very impressive day on the scenery part as the road headed into the mountains of the cairngorms. The road got a little busy so I opted for the easier sustrans paths and disused roads, theses really are brilliant and should be supported at any given opportunity. Today's route allowed me to play in the snow, fall off my bike into soft bracken (turnsout brakes are for wimps and people who want to stay on there bikes) and see some men messing with a formula 3 car!!!
I forgot to mention that yesterday i saw a sheep giving birth urrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!
The bike is still running beautifully and got me all the way to this strange ski town. It is very busy and full of coffee shops and outdoor clothing places, I am in heaven. Knees have been ok today and am now looking forward to dinner.
Just finished my coffee and now off for an explore!!!!
