On our annual Pilgrimage to the Highlands I had the unfortunate mishap of stopping for lunch on the single track road from Melvich after Reay to Kinbrace the A897. we stopped at a picnic spot near Forsinard. I opened by Kriega top mounted bag to get out a hat (it was sunny) and then after lunch put the cap in the top box forgetting to buckle up the Kreiga!! Total dick I Know!!! When we stopped at Kinbrace to turn towards Dalvina Lodge on the B871 I noticed the bag was open. So I ventured back up the road and found one glove and a wee rucksack. So if anyone is coming along the road soon this is the stuff I lost!!! A pair of GS light gloves, a pair of Goretex heavy gloves, a pair of BMW Goretex overtousers, a foot pump, an apple Iphone charger and lead!! I know I'm a real idiot but if anyone by chance finds any of this gear please contact me foe a rewards. Its about £350 worth of gear. I have included location maps and types of gear if you fine it!! Thanks for reading. BTW a lovely route to Inverness. The maps show the road the highlighted one the distance I travelled before I realised and the google photo the location of lunch.

ha ha ha .
i inherited 2 bikes , i got half of my friends ashes . when i went out on his bikes , i put him in a shoulder bag , and took him with me .
i stopped , down near Hindhead , put him on the rack , went for a fag and tea. came back , forgot the bag and left .....1 mile down the road thought FUCK ! turned round and went back , part way down the road there were ...2 grey streaks in the tarmac and my bag in the ditch.

i was mortified for a week , told a friend who worked with him , she burst out laughing ! and said ...he would find it funny.
 
best of luck.
stopped in Kinbrace last March, ask the local if anything was found or they could put up a note pls?
