This kind of summed up today :)
Trying to find the route to the Forth Road Bridge was a bit of a nightmare, but thanks to our guide (Mark) we made it to the bridge. After sampling the views of THE Forth Bridge, we headed to a bike shop for some repairs.
The route to Perth was fairly flat, but the wind was making the going tough and after a spot of lunch we began the climb to the Spittal of Glenshee.
The climb was tough enough and the strong headwind made it doubly so. At one point Dave had to pedal to go downhill!!?
Eventually we reached the small plateau and the Spittal of Glenshee Hotel.
