Mississippi Bullfrog Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Progress was made, but I couldn't find a lay-by to stop in. The entrance to an old quarry had to suffice. Edited July 8, 2021 by Mississippi Bullfrog 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the view is nice where I stopped. Just for the weekend or will they be there next week? also what are they doing? resurfacing? I am heading that way on Tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amayah Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Managed to get a wee run with the Mrs Inverness to Ft Augustus was pretty quiet but the rest of the way to Ft William really busy. Came back on the East side of the loch but didn’t turn down to Foyers as it was starting to rain just took the other way through Gorthleck Farr etc https://www.relive.cc/view/vKv27eA7doO Edited July 8, 2021 by Amayah Spelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am heading that way on Tuesday I've no idea what they are doing as there was no sign of any work happening. The scale of it suggests it might be a few days so it might be worth checking before going that way. I might have been unlucky as I met a group of bikers who'd come down the Ruthin route and they'd not been held up. I think the guys on the road I was on either messed up or had a radio failure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 When I did a Scottish trip a few years back I found the A86 towards Dalwhinnie was a fantastic road Maybe next time I'll be doing it on a bike and not a car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
