Just to think I was sure, I was not going to get any more cycling in during my time in Scotland. Well I was wrong. I found the time to cycle from Killearn to Rowardennan. Bring my total number of miles while up in Scotland to 144.21. So not to bad for just four cycles.

I am well pleased, I have got out three cycles while up in Scotland. Even with all the rain and how busy I have been, seeing friends and family. My aim was to do at least 100 miles up here.
