What a beautiful day for a spin, a wee bit longer than we thought at 110km but most enjoyable. glad to see the auld 795ers had the endurance to stick the distance Well done Niall for organising this trip and the weather hey you must be very close to someone up there Thanks to all those who helped me out along the way with tubes, manpower etc. I had the record for most punctures 3 in total Not my day,. must do like a boy scout next time and come prepared.
