Just a few photos from a weekend trip to the Mull of Kintyre. Good company, spectacular scenery and brilliant roads. There's not much more to be said!
Home for a couple of nights, The Anchor Inn at Garelochhead. Clean, comfy rooms, super helpful dripping-wet-biker friendly staff and good food. Highly recommended!
Even after a night in the laundry our gear was still damp so some morning sunshine did a great job of finishing off the drying out.
I had a room with a view. In fact, due to a booking error, I had an apartment with a view!
Just down the Loch is Faslane, the home of our Trident nuclear deterrent. Not that you can tell from here, what with...
...Crocosmia still in bloom and...
...Eider Duck serenading me to sleep.
In fact, there was lots of birdlife feeding along the Loch edge. Line up L to R - Jackdaws, Heron, Curlew, Herring Gull and Crows.
But the day was for riding and only a few photo's were taken.
The A83 near Bellochantuy
Kintyre Lighthouse
The view across to Northern Ireland
More flora...
...and fauna.
And then back up the other side of the peninsula on the B842.
Great views over to Arran.
The Arran skyline.
And with that it was back home to the Anchor Inn.
Of course, the TDM performed faultlessly returning 65mpg as usual.
