Inshegra to Lochinver Day 4 - 48.7 miles - 4500 ft of climbing

After a fine afternoon at the beach and an evening with a delicious dinner, we were ready for another great ride.  We gathered for breakfast in great anticipation and...
 
were told that there would be no kippers today.  One of our main breakfast staples was missed.... :>)
 
Breakfast was grand and soon we were getting ready for great sunny day ride.

Another Scottish view
 
The new Skiag bridge over Lock Glendhu.
 
A view of Ben More Assynt.
 
Soon we had turned onto a narrow coastal road where Hobbits live.

The winding road was a great ride with great views of the ocean.
 
Alas, the 100lb note I used to boot my tire gave up 7 miles from the end of today...:>)

Suds and menu...what could better.
 
Awaiting happily for a fine dinner after a great ride.
