This
year we have neglected Scotland. This was in part because the weather
is always a question mark and doesn't allow for far ahead planning,
and by the time we decide to go somewhere the accommodation left is
either extortionist or non existent, and then there was the
additional complication of the train strikes which didn't really help
the planning... Finally we had a long weekend and Paul got to check
the maps and plotted a short route that would take us on a couple of
gravel stretches that we have never done before.
