Day 8 - Loch Lomond to Nr Fort William.

After John, Richard, Omar and Malps had a morning swim including several go on the kids waterslide and lovely breakfast we reluctantly left Cameron House. A sunny morning! After a photoshoot at the Loch the boys set off at an easy pace this time joined by Omar and Kev. The road took us for 20 miles alongside Loch Lomond in wonderful weather. This time Simon had a puncture and we called in for Support that was supposed to be provided by Malps. Alas Malps had Disaaaaaarster and had locked the keys in the van. There was much abuse and teasing down the phone Malps had now adopted a new name of ‘Muppet’ . The only way for Malps to get in was to smash the side window  We carried on not before Kev cautioning Sanj for urinating in a public place. Omar had his one strop for leaving himself and Kev on a pass in the rain. The ride then took us to the spectacular Glencoe with stunning scenery and nice long steady climbs and fine descents. 8 miles to go we stopped for a coffee, the 1st time this luxury Descending down to sea level we arrived at the Corran ferry for the short hop to the hotel. Ride over 75 miles. As we got off our bikes a sweaty Irishman appeared having done a 5 mile run – well done John, meanwhile Malps had smoked 20 B&H.
