Biking
No rest for the wicked...on Saturday night we all went out to the after-race ceilidh, also organised by Trigger Events, and had a great time dancing. Fred MacAuley was a guest speaker (comedian from MacAuley & McCoist) so that was funny, and I asked him to dance when we were short of a man at one point :)
On Sunday Bob, Kasia & I set off on a bike ride - round by Linn of Dee to the Quoich, then through Invercauld and up the Slugain. The wind was against us just to add to the challenge, but it was still great fun with fantastic views. Passing the ruin we dropped back down to the Quoich river and pushed/carried/dragged the bikes through the mud & heather until the track picked up again. It was a nice cruise downhill to the punchbowl, then we went through Mar Lodge and back to the house :)
Home on Sunday evening and an early night was in need, ready to start work again on Monday. Sometimes I wish I was still travelling, with no real responsiblities other than the daily requirement of pure fun and adventure. I guess it couldn't last forever though :)
