The final day's overspill from the weekend's riding proved to be the most enjoyable of the three featuring the journey from Glasgow into the highlands, and then from the bottom of Ben Nevis to the top of it.
Best bits overall include the Snowdon Pyg track, any 24 hour garage with a Starbucks/ Costa vending machine, finding somewhere that sold jumpers at midnight, the final push from Glen Coe to Fort William, and having a view from the top of Ben Nevis (a rarity, apparently).
Low spots? Running out of comfortable ways to hold my handlebars, and a long spell without caffeine (often the only thing propping me up) during the wee small hours of yesterday morning.
All in this one took me 57 hours, and I was pleased that the plan came off as I'd intended.
