End of day sixteen

To start, here’s a picture of the lovely shower facilities at last night’s camp site.

Anyway, today was a significant improvement over the past week, with the rain holding off in the morning whilst they were packing up, and also on the evening when they were setting up. That’s the first time that’s happened since they started out.

They cycled 61.4 miles, stopping at Brora on the coast, and managed to find a camp site with decent facilities. Their total distance travelled is now 965.6 miles and they have about 65 miles to go.

Here are a few more pictures.
