Back home in Orkney chaps, hope you had a good return leg and have journeyed home safely. What time did you arrive back at Ardgay?
The road alternative did the trick in getting me back to the car in time to be able to catch the ferry, although the vigorous face wind most of the way was a definite impediment until I got into the trees in the last 15 miles or so! 49.5 grim miles at 11.7 mph but I was back at the car for 25 past 3, so had a comfortable drive home.
My pictures are rubbish, but I knew that Kaiser and ZZ were doing a professional job so I'm complacent. Here's some tasters till a right job is done.
Speaking of aftermath threads, feel free to point out highlights to me so I can weave them into a seamless tapestry of the first half.
Great meeting you guys, hope to do something like this again. You know what, I wouldn't have fancied doing all that on an aluminium bike that was 21 years old ...
New brake blocks tomorrow!
