Was pushing it the whole morning to get around and past Inverness to escape the wind. The weather had picked up somewhat since yesterday. Seemed to be a bit more sunny and less rain and sort of less wind. Leaving on a full English breakfast – I could barely move.
Following Route 1 this took you back inland (sometimes I don’t like this and attempt to use the GPS to re-navigate) but it was a bit sunnier so thought I would follow and well it turned out to be lovely. It took you through the forests and I can’t remember seeing anyone for hours – just wildlife – with the typical cows and sheep. I think it was today cows ran after me – I got the biggest fright and peddled as fast as I could but you know they are really quite big and scary and I don’t believe that a piece of wire will stop then getting through if they wanted too – so yeah peddled like some crazy person away. I wondered if one had mad cow disease because it was jumping and leaping like the new lambs do and rolling its head around – scary stuff.
When arriving at Rosemarkie it felt such a lovely place – very peaceful and was worth any days effort of cycling.
