Day 7 completed. Day 8 coming up

We left Thurso on Friday morning and went the north road to John O'Groats for a coffee.

From there we carried onto Wick and then onto Dunbeath for lunch.

After lunch came the climbing! Firstly the hill at Dunbeath and then the Berriedale Braes. We all made it up the braes without too many problems, had a short stop in Helmsdale and then onto Golspie where we stopped for the night.

Tea was fish and chips from the Trawler in Golspie.

Daily stats:

Miles: 90
Ave spd 14.5
Elev 4623ft

Now we're getting ready to welcome Ian and Alistair for the last ride into Inverness. We hope to be there for about 3 or 4pm
