Featured Touring Off For A Ride, Back In A Bit....

Look at this beauty.....

It smelt, looked and tasted delicious
The wife is the cook and expert menu decipherer, so in her absence I had to take a stab in the dark.

One word, Yummee!

 

Then using @JackWS wisdom, there simply was no other choice than cheesecake!

There was, but our objectives aligned

Oh I do like a fruit cheesecake.
Look at this chunk?

 

I sent that pic to my mate, naturally he was working, you know, like you do when your younger and foolish

He was most adamant to know, was it any good?

I sent him back the following....

 

Thank you @learningtofly yes, it comes pretty hard when you idolise someone in your primary and junior years.

Edited, as I said far too much
Anyway, tomorrow's another day and going south.

 

The two guys in the garden at The Crask had these big nets on, like down to the navel long. I asked if they were doing something with bees dressed like that.
Apparently under the trees in the garden, the midges are horrendous, yet where we were talking, only 20 metres or so away, there were none.

 

Well I'm around 450 miles from home but I've no intention of doing it in one stint, been there done that.

I once came back from Harris to home via Skye and it wasn't any fun with 300 miles of rain. 450 end to end.

I'm thinking 200 miles or thereabouts south, so I guess below Edinburgh.

Breakfast arriving soon, so food, map check and then a decision.

Here's an Invershin breakfast from the other day, very nice.

 

Oh bo11ox, I meant to put that back in the tankbag

 

So slightly out of sync, but went deer chasing with my new binoculars last night

It turned out I didn't need them



Look at that for one-upmanship, some people have statues and metal deer sculptures, this guy has the real thing.

 

So many parallels.....

I had a Thundercat



And I once rode, after work on a Friday night, to John O Groats campsite, 520 miles.
I got pulled for speeding in Edinburgh and the copper thought I was joking when he said "where are you going?"
I said "John O Groats"
He said "what tonight!"
I replied, "yes but not at this rate" and we both laughed.

Here's the beast, not the first wife, the GT 750 on its way to J o G.
The coppers pulling us didn't mention the dog probably didn't want any more paperwork.

 

Thank you @joe mc donald
