Greatest day today. Fine weather was dry with cloud in the morning but the skies cleared and we had sun, sea and terrific views. Camera has been clicking all day, often on the wheel. Went past Ben cruachan, round loch awe with possible eagle sighting and unfortunately a roadkill red squirrel. Then over connell bridge with views of mull and on north to ballachulish and views of glencoe. Then onto fort William where I purchased a miniature of glengoyne whisky for the end of the trip. My first tipple in 21 months. Went off piste with ivor and Andrew after lunch on a lovely b road to spean bridge. Then 28mph for the last 13 miles to a hostel at invergary. The views are magnificent, wildlife terrific, legs are great and ass is covered in anti chafing gel! Some of the roads here leave your saddle in your bottom. Can't believe I've spent over 800miles on the same 145mm of leather!
Keep on pedalling!
