Garry McGivern Travelsonabike2 is bicycle touring on Sunday, the 14th-September-2014. Deviot East to Brora. 67 miles. When I got up this morning there was no mist it was clear for a change. The first time since I’ve been in Scotland. Even the tent wasn’t as wet as it normally is!
Once I’d packed up and loaded the bike I set off on my way. It was a nice start to the day as I had a nice hill to go down. The only trouble was I soon hit the mist, and this time it was really thick I could only see about twenty metres ahead! Luckily, this only lasted for half an hour, and then the sun came out once again.
It’s not been a particularly hard ride today, although just after lunch, I did pick up a fairly strong headwind, which was pretty chilly, too. It was coming straight off the North Sea. By about 4 o’clock, I’d had enough and stopped for the day. I was hoping to get a little bit further today so I could have an easy day tomorrow. I think I’ve got about 65 miles to go before I get to John O’Groats, don’t know what I’m doing then I’ll look at my options at the time!
