Sorry all, but Autumn is here proper this week in the Highlands. Its been nipping at early trees for a few weeks now (like the Mountain Ash's), and the brackens dying back. But today was a proper sunny n nippy with leaves falling / turning all around - a belter of an Autumn day. Cycled from Killin to balquhidder with the family as the kids had a day off school.
If anyone wants a good family ride, I can thoroughly recommend this area and NCR 7 - some big hills, but all on great, uninterrupted paths and amazing views / waterfalls the whole way.

Another one sucked in (later on he admitted on one steep descent that he liked being scared and his tummy was 'twisty' - but could we do it again?)
