A hard day as it was extremely windy, very hilly and although it started off dry poured with rain again from 3pm.

Matt also has a problem with some of his gears so we have had to add in an extra day as he has arranged to take it into a bike shop in Dingwall tomorrow so our campsite for tonight is at Evanton, Alness just 8 miles away.
Hopefully it will be something simple.

Matt cycled on the A9 all the way from Dunbeath to Tain then followed NC1 through Lamington to Evanton.

Steve and I followed the A9 all the way visiting Dunrobin Castle. The scenery along the way was stunning again.
