Oh Yes, I'll do that again! Might not use the tesco panniers this time though

I'm re doing the ardgay/ullapool run next week with my local group - slower pace and perhaps more beer involved. I tried to get them to do the Glen etive run but getting them into a hostel was bad enough, a bothy would be almost impossible.

This brought tears to my eyes re reading it....

Kaiser...

Thats a piece of art thats is. The subject in the foreground raises the bile straight up to the top of the oesophagus whilst the lycra in the background gives you a slap on the back to get it all out. Methinks someone should contact the Tate.

TK - get yersels tae the Argyll Hotel in Ullapool again for food/beer

That's the same place we saw the Scottish Digeridoo, less that 5 minutes walk from the YH. I was there last week - still highly recommended and V Popular with locals. 4 proper beers on tap

Even my podiatrist was waxing lyrical about it today (no kiddin) on way back from cycle tour of the Outer Hebrides

Poetic licence - things were/are different the now....in fact TK had better be on guard if I wake up beside him again

TK just for reference what kind of roof rack mounted bike carrier/s do you have? :shock:

 

[The Ken]

[RobMac]

Do they connect to square/rectangular rails?

 

[The Ken]
