Title: After 1,850 miles I'm back in Northants
Post by: tunnie on 30 May 2012, 19:39:22
Taken the bike to Scotland for just under a week, taken in some big miles. Thought it would be hard, pah it was easy. Leaving Loch Lomond 09:30 this morning, arrived back at 3:15PM.

Don't know why they always complain about the weather in Scotland, it was 30 degrees all week for me  ::)

Just for good measure, given MotherT's Estate an oil change this evening as well, as its off on a big trip at the weekend too.

Still feeling quite fresh, could easily do another 100 miles on the bike  :)

Pictures to follow soon  :D

I hope you remembered to do the Applecross peninsula?

Thought I'd died and gone to heaven the first time I drove that road. Turned round and did it again, it was so good. :D
