A guide to Scotland. Sort Of.

Post by yodagoat »

I don't know if this should be in this section or the Ride reports section. It's sort of a Rider report but also a travel guide.
Anyway, here it is, let me know what you think.

My good lady has decided to call it the north coast 500 at 50 as she will have reached the milestone age the month before.

Nice report and good tips there.The only thing I would add would be instead of jumping back on the A9 at Carrbridge my choice is to take the A939 Grantown-Nairn road over Dava moor as far as Cawdor and on to Inverness past Culloden moor following the "Highland Tourist Route" Only 5 miles further.

If I take nothing else from that blog Mike, the photographs were excellent (thumbs)
