Saturday September 26, Final Day

Our final ride from Crask to John O'Groats didn't start out well.  We found ourselves in the midst of a swarm of Midges (small biting gnats).  The only way to get away from these pests was to cycle as quickly as possible.  The route to John O'Groats was 82 miles, starting out mostly flat then turning into big ups and downs and then finally more flats along the coast.  The weather was beautiful and we flew, covering the 82 miles at an average of almost 16 mph.!

We pulled into JOG around 4:30 after stoping for a wonderful lunch.  Pictures of  today's ride and finish.
