I’d do it again, it was alright in the first year it ran. As was the TranScotland. It was jolly and there were lots of nice folk.
There was the odd moment of ‘crikey flip this is horrid,’ but then you’d stumble across someone agreeable or doing worse than you. And it was alright again. The shower position wasn’t ace. Record wait was 50 minutes on the TransScotland – but again – had a nice chat and passed the time.
Trashed my bike both times. New drive train, most bearings all round and a few bits that never made it back onto the bike .
