Thanks for the...Gino, a great report on Applecross. Thanks for the mention. I wish I could say the ride home was as pleasurable as the ride up. I left camp 8.15am Monday, going over Bealach-na-Bá wasn’t easy, horizontal rain and strong gusts of wind were trying there best to remove me and the Norton Commando from the mountain top. But we survived to tell the tale. I rode 250 miles before the rain briefly stopped, only to start half an hour later to finish off my drenching. 450 miles done when I arrived at my friends in Yorkshire. I was pleased to get out of my wet gear. Thanks to everyone who made me so very welcome, I enjoyed every second.<br />Nortons Rule.<br />Alan.Alan Throssellnoreply@blogger.com
