Two day trip up to Hamilton was longer and tougher than I'd anticipated. Weather and distance was against me. Ferry delayed by rough seas meant riding late at night, in the dark, through low cloud, up and down big mountains. Not pleasant. Before arriving late at hotel with no wifi - hence radio silence...
The next day required even more distance to be covered. Had I bitten off more than I could chew?
Fortunately, the formidable BMW took it and me in its stride - delivering me safely, if shattered, to Hamilton and to the next part of the adventure - meeting up with my son Oli and his wife Lauri (who graciously overlooked my complete exhaustion!)
So I guess that brings the biking bit of the trip to an end, and therefore the blog
In the meantime, Steve has been flown back to UK, bolted together again and now home getting some well deserved TLC
So sorry he couldn't complete the trip, missing out on such a fantastic experience and a load of banter along the way. It wasn't the same without you mate
