Yes mate. How was it?

It was brilliant! Hardest part was going up to and through Bareges and the final kilometre. Last 500m must be 15%!
The scenery all the way up was incredible. Perfect weather!
Took me just under 2 hours 30 mins.

That last km averages 11%. Was there a photographer on the road trying to take your pic?

Man really wanna head out there again.

They are on that ridewithgps site that you used for lejog.
Not sure if you can view them though. Maybe try a search for casinobay

And I only used it to check distance and elevation. I’ve not added it to a GPS system

Really don’t need any new caps but

Yeah, think I’ll get it.

I have a serious cap problem. Must have about 20 odd now.

Why not make a feature wall in the bike room and display all your caps?

yep, that’s the plan (once the room’s clear of our living room furniture)

Glad you enjoyed Scotland the best :+1:

re: it not seeming like a big deal

i think it’s one of those achievements where even people that don’t know about cycling can appreciate what you’ve actually just done. like you tell them you’ve done 200km or 400km it doesn’t really mean anything (unless you ride bikes) but a normie can picture cycling from one end of the country to the other

That’s a brilliant piece nikster!! I can’t imagine doing the distances you were doing every day!

And you didn’t really get to see the best parts of Scotland!
