On the other side...of the Cairngorms!

Fantastic! dad called this afternoon (from a phone box as the reception is so poor).  He's made it through the Cairngorms.  His route took him over 4 steep passes, plus a smaller pass.  It wasn't easy, and he had to push his bike up the steepest bits, but it was dry, and not as bad as he thought it might be!  Again, it was fun going down (just as well he had his brake pads changed earlier in the week!), and he arrived in Grantown-on-Spey in reasonable time.  If you look on the map it's amazing to see how far he's travelled, the end really is in sight, and the worst of the hills is over too!

Hallelujah! Great to hear you’re over the ‘hump’. Much better news than anything on the radio or TV!
