Scotland : The Highlands CC Ecosse Lochs and Glens Tour #CONFIRMED#

[DougieAB]

On the train home to Edinburgh. Had a great few days cycling, could have gone on and on. Gorgeous day in Inverness, blue sky and no wind. Big thanks to all, feeling a bit emotional now that its all over (or is that just a bit of indigestion) Post some photos when I get home.

@Harry_Palmer79 & I were stopped from getting on our train as two other cyclists got on first and said they had reservations when they didn't have. The train could only take 2 bikes.. The guard was not very helpful and didn't even check the others tickets. It wasn't until I complained at the ticket office that we got on in the nick of time with the others thrown off. The guard wanted us to wait another hour for a train which we knew had our friends booked on with their bikes, so we wouldn't have got on that one.......A near disaster!

Guards were useless when we were there too. Managed to get on the train though. Left @bigjim at Central where I caught a train and he headed for the river to ride to Milngavie

Back Tayside eventually...
Many thanks to @Fubar for managing the complex task of herding cats and thanks to everyone for being patient with my crappy routes :-)

... where are we going next year?

Home and showered (nothing like your own shower) rather tired but happy with the trip - thanks all for coming along, it was a blast! Hope you all enjoyed it

Four days of wonderful scenery, hills, ludicrous luggage levels, hills, silly tourer racing, hills, mass catering and Lochs. Fun way to spend a week. Thank you @Fubar for organising

I've stuck my pictures online here. May post more when I get a round tuit.

Great photos!
Nice to finally get to ride with you - hopefully I'll be able to make next year's night ride.

Enjoy your tour! *jealous*
