Day 9 - Glencoe to Drumnadrochit (The Great Glen)


Day 9 took in Glencoe, Ballachulish, Fort William, Fort Augustus, the Nevis Range, Loch Ness and Drumnadrochit... all in glorious sunshine. The early part of the ride had great views but, for the most part, the Great Glen didn't quite match the magnificence of the previous day. One high spot (in more than one way) was just after Spean Bridge where a monument to the Commandos of the second World War looks out across the Great Glen to the Nevis Range.

I met a few of the Cancer Research guys again today and had the opportunity to chat. Apparently there are seven riders in the team and they'd remembered seeing me in Devon and at Crianlarich. They are also scheduled to finish on Tuesday and so I could potentially meet up with them and the three NSE riders (seen originally in Liskeard) on Tuesday afternoon at John O'Groats.
