    Ben Nevis gondola trails, quite a snazzy place but thirty quid each for one lift!! We chose the severe black. It was insane, descending into cloud. Bri punctured, took us 20 minutes to get it fixed on a mountainside in light rain. Just a bit too much for me, the boardwalks were incredible...

    So many roads being expanded across Scotland We rode from Keiss to John O groats on the coastal footpath. 15 miles of epic scenery, huge dropoffs and endless slog I was too scared to make it across to the castle, very exposed climb with 100 ft drops into the sea. Made it to the sign spot...

    Climbed to the top of Golfie, remains of a reservoir Lovely views, stupid heat No great effort in Turbo This was outstanding in real life, you burst out of a root filled descent to be met with a switchback clinging on to a ludicrously exposed steep gravel 60 degree slope This is the end...

    The heat overcame me, I pinch flatted my rear tyre while soloing with no repair tools, the walk of shame through the woods wbile being eaten by flies, sweat dripping from every pore. At least I was spared the direct burn on my face, I wasnt built for hot weather. I was nearly tempted.
