I was out towards Tomintoul with work during the week and the Cairngorms were white with a decent first winter blanket of snow, so thats where I was headed, seeing as Fridays now belong to me and not the man!
Big Bird & the Alp have both been SORN’d, Big Bird for the winter and the Alp for just a month whilst I give it a little bit of TLC. So now the F8GS gets to come out to play.
Scenic route along the banks of the Spey towards Grantown, then Lecht bound and into the ever lowering clouds. Had planned to brew up around here, but the clouds were kinda wet, so just took a photie and moved on . . .
The low clouds obscured any chance of a scenic snowy scene being captured . . . but even without the clouds I'd have lucked out - all the snow had gone! So off on a tangent I headed
Wandered a little way up this track the other month, but today, seeing as I was on a K60 Scout shod bike, I thought I’d venture a bit further up the hill
It went downhill after this point at quite an angle . . .
Didn’t get the kettle on till I got home, some 100+ miles later. Chilly on the pinkies, slippery under the tyres, but still a great way to spend a Friday morning
