Get thee behind me, Stephen

It's a funny thing that so many conversations seem to contain almost scriptural sayings. Now for the context....I am the Routemaster....Manda is the Pacemaker. If I forget and forge ahead I am reminded of our roles. Occasionally it becomes necessary to be a little more forceful; hence the phrase 'Get thee behind me'.

Over Killicrankie Pass and past Blair Atholl where the Duke has the only private army in the UK.

Then on to Drumochter Pass with the warning 'No food or shelter for 30km'. You were warned. About 10 miles uphill to the top, the highest point on the Scottish Cycle Network'. And a rhyme unfinished as yet. Incidentally the warning was not true. Today's free food was raspberries by the side of the path.

Scotland that has lots of heather
Also has some really wet weather
So you suit up, push and pedal
Really deserving of a medal
When you get right to the top
Enjoy the view and have a stop.

Any additions welcomed.

Shinty at Newtonmore was a new one, like hockey on steroids crossed with golf.Baca lagi
