Another trip over the Pentlands

The road and the miles to Balerno
Preparing to ford the raging torrent

Which way?

I struggled to cycle over this

Another trip over the Pentlands today, and completely different weather from last weeks trip. Today the weather was a fairly (for biking) pleasant 10 degrees and sunny as well. This was reflected in our time which was 30 minutes faster than last week when it was icy and snowing at times. We've still a section to sort out yet where we seem to leave the main track but today we reckon we've seen where we're going wrong, so next time we might just get it right. Only mishap today was Clive, who foolishly attended a leaving work party last night and over indulged in the beer and had to call off! He's been given a formal warning as to his future conduct!!!
On the plus side of things I found a rather nifty pair of riding specs in the heather!

You HAVE handed these specs into the Pentland Hills police station, of course!
