Scotland bites back

I knew Scotland wouldnt take an English cycling invader gently and she certainly served up some weather to test my resolve. Starting with a climb out of Crianlarich in mist but by Bridge of Orchy it was streaming down and windy. The temperature dropped my fingers and toes went numb and the ascent up to Glencoe was arduous. However things improved as the sun shone briefly for an hour into Ballachulish. An hour later and a break for a soup lunch in Fort William. Its raining again! 51 miles cycled this morning should be 41 this afternoon.
