Mair heat

 Still hot at the moment and since we have been tent lazy this year (is that a thing?) we decided on a nights camping at Elgin at the wonderful https://riversidecaravanparkelgin.co.uk/ I can thoroughly recommend this friendly site, they will accept tents from well behaved and sensible campers but space is limited so best to book in advance.

Excellent run up with a stop at Glenshee ski centre (also well recommended for a stop ) and we met up with Wilson Malloch who is part of the team there (and fellow Guzzi owner) , a couple of hours passed quickly and thanks to Wilson for the tea and cake!

Outstanding run over the Lecht, I was enjoying myself so much I forgot to take photos, we did have an incident when a local near Aberdour pulled out of his drive without looking, totally unaware that he could have caused an accident. We were luckily only doing about 40mph, any more and we would have struggled to stop. Be careful out there, its a bloody scary place.

We met up with Norrie Milton for a beer and then had a meal before heading back to the campground where my air bed decided not to be which left me spending most of the night not sleeping lying on the ground, oops, the joys of camping. 

Great run back on the Sunday which as they say in the Haynes manuals "is a reversal of the previous"

Great weekend, nice people, still not normal but it feels like it might be getting there, keep motorcycling and watch out for the loonies.
