We reached Lochinver via the Drumbeg road. Some awesome climbs to get here.
😯

Weather has been mixed. I for one will certainly come back again.

Epic trip. I await the pics.

I’m heading to Achiltibuie in the morning to do a wee job. I’ll toot if I see you!

I’ve added a couple of extra blog entries, pics to follow. Al has a better camera than me.

Just back home after a fantastic few days with Al and Bertil. The trip was as spontaneous as the weather. We still managed to laugh as icy hail stung our cheeks. We rode roads that I’m ashamed at fifty one to say were new to me. There were still lots we missed. I’m certain to go back to make amends.

Our trip was only four and a bit days. It was full of adventure and fun. The landscape and welcome in the northwest highlands are both exceptional.

I will try and upload my pics tomorrow to the blog, it will help illustrate my ramblings.

If anyone wants to try a few days touring in Scotland, you could do a lot worse than ride the northwest highlands.

flickr bomb!

Absolutely fabulous.

nice write-up mcm. must visit soon and I’m a lot closer than you 🙂

Some great pics there Al. I had a squint through the rest of the stream, I will add them to the blog.

I need to invest in a better camera.

Cracking pics, great write up. It’s a fantastic part of the world.

Very jealous!

More jealousy here. Lovely country but always a lottery with the wind. Still, no moaning about the midges this time around.

Finally went through your photos Al (waiting till I was at home on the big screen). Some nice stuff in there. Reminds me that I need to re-visit that area with my bike…. soon!!!

I couldn’t manage to upload Als pics directly from Flickr to our blog, but I could copying the links from here. So a plea to Al, could you add some more (lots more) of your pics here and I’ll add them to the blog.

Brilliant thread. Very inspiring. Firmly on the to do list now.

Thanks lads.
