What a day! It started in the least desirable way with steady driving rain over the loch greeting our waking eyes. We decided to sit out the morning in the hostel, reading in tinkering with our bikes. We caught the 10.45 ferry across the loch where we had a cuppa before starting the day’s riding. It was heads down, cranking out the miles in the driving rain until we entered the highlands when thankfully the rain eased and we could concentrate on those long draining climbs. The pay off was the stunning views, with mountains and waterfalls on all sides and, when we started the long descent towards the loch, we were treated to glorious sunshine as the clouds completely cleared away. We arrived at our cabins as the sun sank into the loch. Without doubt the most incredible days cycling i’ve experienced…  Jack
