The placed that I stayed in Inverary was super, modern,clean and wonderful breakfast. Porridge followed by a salmon scrambled eggs. After loading up I set out in sunshine to head for Ballachulish some 67 miles away. The air was cool almost autumnal and this was not the occasion for stripping off. The first 8 miles woke me up as It was all up hill . I was glad I had not had the kippers! There then followed a up and down ride for the next 20 miles until I reached Connel. On the way however I saw two Eagles about 80-100 metres from me. It was wonderful to see them. Every 10 miles I eat and drink and this tactic seems to work really well. I eat a mixture of Milky ways, Snickers bars (marathons) and Jelly babies. When I finish this adventure I don't think I will want to eat anymore of these for a long time! I eventually arrived at Ballachulish about 3pm. Its a small place but is right next to Glencoe. Tomorrow although the weather is not so good, the journey is shorter about 42 miles up to Fort Augustus.
