Thank you all for your wonderful feedback on my ride report. It really means a helluva lot to me (and my bike, of course)
I think the crisp air in Sutherland (most definitely NOT that last and utterly evil glass of red wine :mwink: has caused a serious lapse in my memory - my delightful hosts at Pearlman's were VIC and Annie (not Steve). My sincerest apologies for providing Vic with an undercover name.
Some clarity on Mungo Park & Mungo Park 2. :biggrin: Nope, no attachments apart from MP being my best biker (and beer) buddy...He inspired me to ride other routes than those well-travelled. A good mate to have on your side.
