Mikes blog thread. (may cure insomnia)
Hi folks,
I've been writing my blog for a few years now. I do a lot of ride reports on there as it allows my to post them on various forums.
I'll post up links, the dates might be a bit jumbled up but just ignore that.
I'll try and start with my oldest post and carry on on this thread from there.
Here's a couple to start off.

not really a ride report, but a cool old bike.

Tour of Scotland including a wee video.

Let me know what you think.

Re: Mikes blog thread. (may cure insomnia)
Which way did you go from Ulapool to Durness? Did you just follow the main road or did you go the Achiltibuie-Lochinver-Drumbeg coast road? If you've not done the Drumbeg road do it next time you're up that way, awesome wee singletrack road that scenic, twisty and even fast in places. Great fun.
