Day 13: Invermoriston to Bonar Bridge

Cycling distance: 62.7miles
Av speed: 12.54mph

Set off shortly after 9.15 and made our way along the north side of Loch Ness to Drumnadrochit and the beautiful Urquhart castle. Stopped for some lucozade and some energy bars in anticipation of the mother of all hills - a 15 percent killer incline for over a mile.
Recovered and made quick progress through Beauly to the sleepy town of Dingwall at the end of the Cromarty Firth. A sandwich for lunch and we were on our way again over the hills past Alness and some more stunning heathland scenery reminiscent of cornwall and devon.

Arrived in Bonar bridge shortly after 4pm and enjoyed some daytime tv before some more beers and a great meal at the local bistro.
