Day 5 - scourie to cape wrath

An early start today to get to durness in time for the ferry across the kyle. Ride out of scourie was on sweeping roads with steady inclines. Nice but nothing spectacular. After kinlochbervie it became single track again and brilliant. We swept down into the durness valley with great views of foinaven and the sun came out for the first time in a few days. Brilliant. Ferry over to the cape was no problem and the road to the lighthouse was great. Again could see the outer hebs. Down at the bothy i had a very quick and freezing dip in the sea and we then spent nearly 2 hours cutting up driftwood for the fire. Tea was good, sunset was ace and fire is still going. Excellent day. Well see whether the ghost of the woman who died here 5 years ago haunts us tonight. Spooky. 41miles 10mph
