Sat Apr 08, 2017 - Caleb with Big Dummy to Dunnet Head

Out late this afternoon with the little man for a few hours on the Big Dummy.
He wanted to see a few of the harbours and then wanted to have his snacks up at the lookout at Dunnet Head.
Was a nice day and the wind dropped off by the afternoon, so we slowly wound away along, stopping here and there as is the way on these rides out. We sat at the lookout as the clouds built and came in from the north west and with them the temperature dropped a good few degree as well. Had to shift on the way back as Caleb had a fundraising party to get to and as is my way, time had slipped by. It was also getting quite cool and I had to give him my jacket to put over his as he was starting to cool. It is hard to notice all the time on this as I have to work quite hard so I end up hot and don't realise he is sitting there cooling down in the wind.
A good ride was had by both of us, and depends on a few things but will hopefully get down to the retro/vintage road ride in Inverness tomorrow.
