A social day of lunch stop, cafe stop and pub stop, interrupted by riding of bikes on the west coast of Scotland here.

The Oban and Lismore loop - thoroughly recommended, as is the cake and ice cream at the community cafe, as is ordering such a stunning weather day.

Snapped on the go as the ferry dropped us.

Looking due north to Glen Etive, Glencoe and Ft William.

TBF, we spent all day lazily looking at stunning views. 😎

Unscheduled very easy spin pondering on whether to ditch my Clockwork Evo for a mid travel FS:

I wish the Evo was shit and pissed me off to make the decision easy, but it wasnt.

Is it even a ride without a stop for coffee (or other hot drink) and cake?

Quick snap at Ard Moors while taking a breather. Visibility was zero about two hours previously.

Love a bash round Yair especially on a bright sunny day. Just enough rain been through to make the dirt tacky and the roots slippery.[url= https://i.ibb.co/PhTN2cs/IMG-20220911-143346-522.web p" target="_blank">https://i.ibb.co/PhTN2cs/IMG-20220911-143346-522.web p"/> [/img][/url]

Unfortunately one of the group tagged this wee fella. He seemed a bit shocked so put him in the long grass and hope he made it.
