Third Sunday in a row that I've been out on my own so time for a blog. Somewhere between 45 and 50 miles (speedo needs a new battery) on a gloriously sunny day. Up to the Muir, Aultgowrie Bridge, up Strathconon to Meig Dam, Loch Achilty, Contin and then onto Strathpeffer where I met up with Mary for a soup and cake lunch. Back through Dingwall, Conon Bridge and Beauly to home. Word of warning the road surface from Meig to Achility is sh*te in places.
Hopefully by the time we get out as a group there will be some fitness in the legs.
Big decision to make about Marjorie. She is running ok with her shiny new white mudguards but I fear she will need a few organ transplants if she is going to make the trip in May. For example no matter how much I tweak her I can't get all three chain rings - and I think I'm going to need the granny gear to get to Applecross. So do I spend the money or retire her for a young fancy model? Any recommendations for a roadbike that will take a triple chain ring?
Cheers
Grant
