Well,,,me an John spent last weekend tourin round Scotland.

Up the West coast,,,,Accross the Top,,,,Down the East coast.

1248 miles in total,,,,,, milage isnt that big i suppose but thats because it takes time to do this route. Ya cant just fly along

from one town to the other,,,, the roads dont let ya. We were sittin on the bikes for 9 an 10 hours a day,,,by the end of it

all we were both feelin the pain.

We had a good aul time doin what bikers do best !

Here's some pic's for ye.

From here we went to Ullapool, camped the nite,,,,next day on to Durness, thats the top left of Scotland,, no pics as we had rain that mornin for 2 hours or so. Bloody nothin up there anyway,,,,,,, no breakfast to be got or more importantly no fuel to be got !!!

So we kept goin till the village of Tongue,,,, no fuel there either,,,, both our tanks gettin very low,,,,thankfully my bike will do 280 mills on 25 quid of fuel,,,,, we managed to syphin a litre of fuel outa mine an into John's bike to get us to the next village where we were promised there was fuel. So off we went to Bettyhill,,, free-wheeling down hills to try an get there. By the skin of our teath and no more we got there,,,,,,, the pressure was off now that we had full to the neck tanks of petrol.

Next stop was John O Groats.
