Erskine to Tyndrum

Everyone had a good night's sleep, however Stevie J had a bad start: firstly he bumped his head in the camper and the red claret from the head doth flowed, secondly he spilt his cup of tea (oops!) and thirdly he had a puncture ( we all sat back and had a good laugh because he was still so sleepy). Having got ourselves back to the hotel that we should have stayed at (bless them they had a whip round and raised £25..nay bad!) we got on our bikes and headed off across the impressive Erskine Bridge. We found out that Neil does not like heights, especially when the bridge was slightly swaying in the wind.

We put our heads down and cycled into the wind and headed for Loch Lomond. Wow the scenry was stunning and the smell of the Loch was so refreshing. Lots of photo stops before we had lunch, not before Lance had his first puncture (that's 3 for the trip thus far). Lunch as ever was yummy prepared by the lovely ladies. Onwards we went skirting the Loch, the wind trying to deter our advances. The clouds scarfed the mountain tops...oh this is getting good now.

We arrived in Tyndrum around 3.30 pm. I found a Tourist shop and logged on (who are now nagging me to get of the computer..'come on sunny jim!!'. Will get Treezy Peazie to do Day 14 part two. Och I the noo!!!!
