• ...a little more about it...

    Christ, sorry mate. I've had a couple of goes at jotting everything down, but it takes me an embarrassing amount of time to write anything at all.

    Having digested the journey more thoroughly, I'd definitely be up for it again. This time around was superb, but I'm sure that a second stab at the trip would be a smoother operation, which I reckon would add to the enjoyment.

    I'd also hope that a second attempt would feature better weather, Friday brought with it conditions that were about as masochistic as I've cycled in.

    Descending through Glencoe remains the strongest contender for best moment, it was absolutely spectacular; though also in the running is a chance encounter with a Welsh inn, which prevented me from having to crap in a forest.
