Bearings

Little did we know that bar ladies bike was not then end of mechanical problems.

The beast was bouncier than a trampoline, Toby bobbed up to the top of this hill:




So we engineered a carefully positioned stone to reduce the suspension. (see blue tape) Much seat experimentation was needed to reduce groin gripes. Jai's gel seat the finishing touch and the bike then rotated.



Lovely route, deers spotted








A little mouse

We found a fab spot for lunch: pasta n sauce.








Then strange noises started emerging from Roy's direction, was it the knickerbockerglory?… Much wiggling revealed a grinding rear ball bearing… pannier's stripped off and weight reduced and we cycled into Lairg.


Two bikes unable to take panniere's + Jai needing to reduce weight a bit. 48 miles to Inverness. Ummmm. Plan G: we is going to get a car to lift the excess baggage to Inverness.

Final day tomorrow.…
