Nice and sunny when we left Ardfern with Raboomdea- but a tad chilly.
Stopped to refuel the bikes at the Halfway Filling Station where we bumped into Go Anywhere K and Hilda.

We were there quite some time as the girls got talking....

Someone was feeling left out.

Eventually we got moving again and got as far as Castle Stalker before stopping to refuel the riders.

We met up with The Dogs Nuts at the Commando Memorial by which time is was fecking freezing and starting to rain so we got moving. At one point on the way out of Drumnadrochit the hail stones were covering the road and the temperature was down to 3 degrees!
" Scotland, Summertime, Freezing- let's head tae Spain " The lines from a Big Sky song kept running through my head as we drove on.
 
The rest of the ride to Ullapool was done in various amounts of rain and we were very glad to arrive and check into the warm welcoming Ceilidh Place then wander over to the campsite and get a warm and welcoming dram from Flyods wee cargo

The langoustines were tasty but a bit crunchy.

Later on Ronno was treating everyone to a medley of Paulo Nuttine tunes - Tuned In wasn't too impressed.

Everyone congratulates Kevin on his bump and asks when it's due.

Flash was very tired after wrestling with his jacket earlier while Christine wonders if it's safe to move.

Hilda tries to console Go Anywhere when he realises his glass is empty- again.

After that we had to go and have another coffee before leaving for the ride home which was a lot more pleasant then the ride up. And we got to stop for an ice cream in Oban:D
