Rest?

So today I was meant to rest. The day was spent catching up with all the things that need to be done during the week but hadn't. Then lunch and birthday shopping for Ali who has a birthday on Tuesday. Home and for once on a Saturday the whole family was home so we had a good chat and laugh. The bikes been cleaned, gears tweaked, nutrition organised as are the clothes. In Glencoe you can never predict the weather so you need to be prepared for anything, including snow! The first 85/90 miles looks fine but the last 15 are up hill and that will be a good test for Lanzarote. Early night tonight as I have a 5.30 am start. 2 hour travel, possibly 7 hours on the bike and another 2 hours travel - it's going to be a long day but the scenery will be special.
