Day 17 - To Inverness!

Hi all,

Easy peesie day, lunch at lunchtime, sun in afternoon on cue, sailed down from Cairngorms to fab view of Inverness and the Sea unexpectedly appearing! Fab Youth Hostel in Inverness, hot showers, and LAUNDRY!!! Hurray!
Pic of the day is the Carr Bridge at Carr Bridge!
49 miles - easy going and lovely end
PS - Cycle path by the A9 all the way from Inverkeithing has been a winner with beautiful views. Well done Gig for sorting that one out!

    Thanks in advance to the talented computer wizard Paul Weir who will be taking over from me uploading the pictures for the last 3 days of the cycle ride. See you at a future drier campsite, Paul.

    Gig: Claire from work says: "been keeping an eye on Gywenth's bike ride, it looks very hard. I know I would be able to do it. Sent her my love and hope you and Gywenth enjoy the rest of your holidays."

    Hi,
    With just a few days to go, here's another song!

    We're a long way from the Firth of Forth.
    Cycle Onwards.
    Travelling further and further north.
    Cycle Onwards.

    Rachel, ride that bike uphill.
    Pedal Harder.
    It is just a test of will.
    Pedal Harder.

    Bobs, you have to keep on going.
    To John O'Groats.
    Though the cloud quite black is growing.
    To John O'Groats.

    Gig, you're soaked through to the skin.
    Just keep going.
    It's hard to bear, hold on to that grin.
    Just keep going.

    What's that I see just round the bend.
    Are we there yet?
    Don't tell me that that's Lands End.
    Are we there yet?

    John O'Groats is within our sights.
    Aleluyah.
    Just a few more left and rights.
    Aleluyah

    It has been great following you along your way.

    Hi Andy, I see you're back from your Welsh trip, hope it was sunny there unlike Scotland in the last few days!

    Hope your neighbours are not getting out of hand (Pauls family you know!). Thanks for the encouragement and we're nearly there!
