Good morning Altnaharra

The Good News - the weather looks ideal for cycling, NO RAIN OR WIND, quite bright, NO RAIN OR WIND, bright with sunshine just hidden behind a fair bit of cloud cover and NO RAIN OR WIND. Did I mention that (here at least) there appears to be NO RAIN OR WIND! Things can obviusly change down the road (as James, uncharacteristically negatively, reminds me) but I'm very heartened.

The Bad News - my right knee feels ike it has a poker sticking in it. I woke at 6 and have been working out a) how I'll get home b) how depressed I'll feel c) how to let James down d) how can I return everyone's sponsorship.
It felt bad and initially I couldn't contemplate cycling up and kind of incline. 7am and it is loosening up a bit so I'm going out for a stroll by the loch to see if I can get it bike ready.
Martin (who gave up his weekend to bring us up here) is going home today. BIIIIG thanks to Martin, you've been a terrific support and are a truly wonderful person.
