Yesterday was a day of ups and downs in more ways than one but who needs gears anyway...
I have been waiting for the right conditions to head to the beautiful Isle of Arran on the west coast of Scotland again, I had actually booked the ferry for today but on checking the weather again on Tuesday it was showing 30C for Thursday and only 20C for Wednesday! So it was a no brainer to change days, thankfully very easy to do because I was travelling by bike! The ferry from Ardrossan leaves at 6.55am so it was a very early start as I live 50 miles away, I arrived at the port at 5.40am and the car park doesn't open until 6am so just a short wait to park the car!
Waiting to board the 33 year old ferry, MV Calendonian Isles! . . .
Not sure how ferry ride is, Rab, but this idea has always intrigued me. Having said that, I probably wouldn’t use one of these on open water. Still, these “shuttle bike” kits can be carried in a backpack and they look like fun!
