On the way home on Monday I popped over to Manor Park. I believe this is an acceptable landmark.

When I've got a minute im going to work out my total mileage over the 5 Days.
Great trip, I set off on my own and loved every minute of it. The roads in the Highlands are awesome.

A fantastic little trip tt
I think I saw you on the M74 - I was on the way back from Glasgow and possibly saw you heading up it

Well done matey, looks like you had a fantastic trip and not too bad with the weather either. Your daily mileage must have been fairly solid.
In June this year I undertook the whole Nature Rally in one trip, in aid of Riders for Health
