Nice...

Euan's knowledge of the trails on Skye is exhaustive. Trying to ride the island without him would have been dangerous. He also had the knack of knowing when to call it a day. We had been pushed solidly out of our comfort zone - a steak and one of the 250 malt whiskies on offer at the Sligachan Hotel was his immediate prescription.

Yes please!

I could do that!

I think it would be prudent to skip the exercise and get straight to the refreshment!

**Mike** · 07-05-2009, 21:08

I did!

Was there something about exercise?

Skye is beautiful guys.Do yourselves a favour and get yourselves up there!

**Beechwoods** · 07-05-2009, 21:18

It's one of those things I want to do in the next year...

Had a long weekend up there last year.Be going again this year when I can get the time.

I figure I'll need two days to drive up there. I could fly, but I want to be able to do a camp/drive trip and need my own transportation. Anyway, they made the bridge toll-free a while back so it'd be rude not to really!

It's a great drive up there through the Great Glen.Stunning scenery.

While you're there, check out Skye Mastering, where you'll be able to hear a proper pair of loudspeakers with some hopefully decent original recordings/soundfiles.........
