Sat April 19th 2014 - Long Haul Trucker - Local ice cream ride



Out for a couple of hours this afternoon/evening. I took the Trucker out for a slow meander up to Dunnet Head then a cruise round the coast against the headwind for an ice cream at Groats.
Stopped off here and there and took a few side tracks seldom used. Quite a headwind all the way out but a nice afternoon ride. Stopped off at a Viking burial spot for a drink and to follow a bit of singletrack along a short section of coast. Made it to Groats with 5 mins to spare before the ice cream shop shut and then it was a ride home on the high road. Thought I might have had a good tail wind but unfortunately it turned slightly and while still a slight advantage it was more of a cross wind, a cool one by this time as well.
Hope everyone else is having a nice Easter, by the look of it there is a lot going on.
Hope to catch up soon.

Jamie
