Great pics.  Looks as if all or most of your roads are 'country roads'.  :2vrolijk_21:  spyder

I have a great route for touring the best parts of Scotland that I did for some German friends, but it's at least a week, and better if you take ten days.   I'll be happy to help with planning something of a route for you though, just ask.

chit you must have taken all those photos on a Wednesday !!!

Always rained at the weekends when I lived there ! ( 1959 t0 1990 !)

Now here in Australia we do have ALL YEAR RIDING WEATHER except when it rains ( 70 days MAX per year ! )

Nice photos tho' I must say...

I'm out with my crew tomorrow , late winter/early spring and it's to be 27C....

Except when it's too hot to ride, of course, which it certainly can be, in my experience.  And Perrrrfect would be in Qld, not stuck out there in the west!  :jalapeno:  :jalapeno:

May to August.  You can always expect some rain though, especially in the west!
