Dunbeath after about 16 miles into the wind :-(
Hopefully some shelter as we continue north.

Wind is relentless. Two cakes and a coffee later I'm in another bus shelter. Now half way for the day a few miles short of Wick where it's going to be an early lunch.

At JO'G - but annoyed to find no photographer at the official signpost.
Really tough day although only about 55 miles into a constand wind.
Off for beer now.

Now having lunch after a VERY, VERY windy ride from the last stop.
900 miles up ... Just the 16.8 miles to go.

Now had a meal and a rest - nothing much here so another early night before our minibus transfer to Inverness and train to Edinburgh for the final overnight stop.

Rob - now a "double endtoender" .... and NO I will not be doing it again ... other cycle tours beckon :-)
