Well Earned
That's a fine sight. A pint of Guinness at the end of the day. I'm in an hotel just outside Nairn where I am about to have home made steak, mushroom and ale pie with chips, washed down with the above Guinness. I've really enjoyed today. More than I thought I would. Mainly thanks to the lovely people of Embo. I didn't mention the biker who spoke to me just as I was about to set off from there who invited me into his house for a cup of tea. God I hope they get their hall.
As Shooting Star told me in his comment on my Embo post, their website is www.embo.org.uk if anyone wants to have a look...

Just caught up with the blog and saw the picture of the Bealach.... Oh my god my brothers will die cycling up that! Glad it's staying dry for you!
Invergordon and the Cromarty Firth are used for the repair and 'rest' of oil rigs... Hence the Jack Up rig.
Thanks for all the info guys!
Timbo: oh my God! I didn't twig that he was doing that as part of the ride. Yes, he will die. It was tough enough with an engine! Sea level to 630 metres in about 4 miles. That's about 2040 feet by my calculations. The other side should be easier. Tell him to check his brakes first!
