I changed my plans, and decided to stay here another night, in that way i could sort out the bike and get things packed in the right place. Then ride the 20 miles to JOG for the offical 'start', although it wouldn't be because i would only be riding the 20 back to Thurso, but i thought that would give a more relaxing day.

Or so i thought ...... i am very tired so will just give you some key words for now:-

Lost Keys

Armed Police

If you just let your imaginatin run wilde with those words, i don't think you will be far from the truth!
