guys that looks awesome!

what were the 2 coast towns called? and how far was it each day, 56km both days?

i have to venture north next year at some point, it's starting to feel like it should be some kind of a right of passage!

 

[RobMac]

Nearly 64km per day

.

64k a day on those hills looks like quite an epic

Ardgay to Ullapool. There and Back Again, and as was mentioned at the weekend - Fellowship of the (Big) Ring.

 

[jonnyboy666]

Yeah when you consider there wasn't a disc brake or suspension fork in site
and every body had loaded panniers of some kind

The pics and story so far is brilliant
How did you all find the going?.was it difficult or after the initial climb did it level out any.
Looks a real epic journey worthy of Jason

Didnt you carry any more than fits into a single pannier,was that enough storage :?
