Slightly more relaxed start.. had rained overnight and started drying out as I started riding. Alistair kindly dropped me off at the garden centre I finished at yesterday.

In all honesty leaving the Cairngorns yesterday, I thought things would get flatter.. I was wrong!!! Heading south over towards the Path of Condie was properly steep.. I cleared a few mountain passes which could have been walked up faster..
I continued South through villages to the Fourth road bridge and spent sometime praying for life and blessing over Scotland, its people and it’s resources.

I then continued on to Edinburgh to give myself a headstart for tomorrow. I then got on the train to Uphall and then rode to Broxburn.
Was invited out to a church prayer meeting ghat was such a blessing ! A good number of faithful believers really making history with their prayers..
I was invited to share for a few minutes then onto zoom for some more prayer with friends.
Fruitful day with big hills.

Jim I take my hat off to you….the most strenuous thing I did yesterday was land some trout while I was fishing at a pals Loch…..just beyond Path of Condie and Kinross.

Fly fishing in the sunshine sounds ideal.. shame I’d already left I love eating fresh trout !
