Day 4

CT - Mission and I mean mission completed. 94km and 1700m of climbing. Wonderful morning cycling through the forests near Aviemore followed by high moor riding then riding through the shooting estates up to Lake Elean and finishing off with a 20km down hill track ride touching over 55km. 

Hero of the day was SCB who realised after about 2 km his right knee wasn't functioning (at all). For the next 10 hours he was placed on a cocktail of drugs (thank you Cam) and somehow, somehow he made it. 

Now in Ballater, one more day. 90km and a small climb Mont Keen the last easterly Munro. 

One more day and finally and we are still talking. Much has been made of the repetition of stories. We are happily on rev 3 and some cases 4 and are still enjoying the repeats.
