Day Eleven review

Today was a mixed bag with the first 46 miles being generally quite flat and completing it in just over 3 hours. The second half welcomed our arrival to the highlands with several long progressive hills and heat of over 30 degrees. The views have been fantastic and for once the mileage has been correct! The most amazing bit has to be the pass of glencoe which had an amazing view, about 5 miles downhill and which was only hampered by the ridiculously strong head wind which meant cycling all the way down.

Today is luckily our last long day with all other days being less than 60 miles (except the last day). It either means it gets easier or hillier and i'm yet to find out.

The stats for today are 80 miles, 13.1mph average and 6hrs 9mins. Tomorrow is off to loch ness for a 50 mile ride
