Scourie to Achmelvich Beach part two

We had a great day of cycling- the weather was much kinder than the forecast. A good coffee/early lunch stop:



Meant that we had plenty of energy for the three mile climb. We met some other cyclists who had come over from Durness yesterday. They shared our pain, but I think our pain was worse. They had a support vehicle for their luggage.




The climb was worth it. We did take the flatter route today, slightly inland. This paid off with a nice tailwind for half the ride.




A beer for Andy in Lochinver, then we are off to a good food shop next door before the final four miles to our basic hostel.

We suddenly remembered we hadn't had much lunch....



Hostel is more like a proper hostel than the last:



We have a room with two bunk beds to ourselves.
