17th April 2022 Easter - Family weekend away to Helensburgh - Jack Taylor evening rides

 At Easter Heather, Caleb and myself were away for 5 days down south. Four of those day were spent in not quite so sunny Helensburgh catching up with family and friends. We finally went back to the Air B&B that we had in 2019 and have had booked since we left in 2019 but like many things, covid has meant it took until this Easter for it to happen again. Our friends we stay in it with unfortunately got Covid a few days before so it was just us with visits from family and eating with friends. 

I did manage to take the Jack Taylor away with me and got a few rides in, both late afternoon/evening rides for a couple of hours. Both times headed down the water towards Gairloch . The Saturday I went through to Gairloch and the Sunday I turned inland at the navy base up into a long climb and into the next valley whose name escapes me. Lovely ride on both days and spoiled with the bike lanes and cycle paths for most of it. Despite getting a bit wet one night they were both really nice rides with stopping to read the information boards and various things about.

The Jack Taylor was its usual joy to ride along at a leisurely pace taking in the scenery. 

Hope everyone else had a nice Easter.  :)
