......with all these threads on racks and bikes etc, it's getting me in the mood for a tour. Not sure I'll be able to do one this year, but let's see what you tour on.

Surely that photo is a commute, not a tour druidh? Is that the bike chain lunch supplies in the bags?

My Singular Swift with my own frame bag
If that has worked, I'm getting a red x but that often happens when I'm on here at work
If not it's here: Swift
This was atop the Bealach na ba, some changes were made for an off road Spanish tour in September but I don't have pictures of that anywhere I can link to from here. I'll maybe add them later on.Posted 1 year ago # -

Hi AJ
We took the train to Mallaig then the ferry across to Armadale in the afternoon. A short ride across to near Tarsknavaig where we bivied the first night.
Day two we rode round to Elgol via a cracking wee tea shop on the road between Broadford and Elgol.
Day three we headed across the bridge to the mainland, stopping for fish and chips in Kyle before riding round the coast to Plockton, in all imaginable wearthers! Decided to push on a bit so rode on to Strathcarron where we spent an enjoyable evening in the hotel bar before retiring for the night to our bivy bags under a bridge.
Day four was a short ride over the Bealach to Applecross and two great meals in the Applecross Inn.
Day five we took the long way out of Applecoss to our only night in a real bed at the YHA in Torridon.
The last day we woke to heavy rain and the shortish ride to the station at Achnasheen via another tea shop in Kinlochewe, I think, where the owner totally mothered us getting us sorted out and drying by the stove before trying to get us to order anything
It was both of our first tour and we found that we had totally underestimated the mileages we could do in a day. However, we also found lots of great wee tea shops in which to spend the extra time we had. Commendations have to go to: the Blue one, possibly called the Wee Blue .... on the road from Broadford to Elgol, near Torrin I think. The little hut in Sheildaig and the old scout hut in Kinlochewe.
It would be a crime to pass through Applecross and not have seafood in the Inn. The tea shop in the walled garden was pretty good too
Any more info just shout!
