" From one of the interlopers......Good to see so many of you up at Takoda. I notice some things never change...Bimbler always having a rest....... "

".......... Before fatigue sets in!
 
Home, finally.

I'll sort through the photos later and see if we have any different ones.

Tony.
 
Had a look and I'm surprised at how many photos that we didn't take - either of the run or afterwards.

Just to put up a couple, here's a view of the Kelpies -



Massive things, they are - 30 metres tall! Andy mentioned that they were at the side of the M9 motorway, which they are, but they are in their own park and have a canal lock in between them.

Speaking of canals, here's the Falkirk Wheel. A seriously impressive piece of engineering -



Apparently, it replaces a series of 11 locks that were abandoned in the '60s. Top stuff.

It looks like you all had a good time ..... and some excellent photos there! Thank you, all, for sharing

:wales-emoticon-vlag:
 
Did anyone get any video of our exploits? In particular, is there any video of us doing the Kielder Forest Drive?
 
I've got 28GB's worth. Camera was playing up...more like idiot error on my account.

Kielder Forest has mostly Cumbria Twin on it as he was in front of me and only the last half as I managed to switch it off for the first bit :rolleyes2:

Not a lot happens on it! I only have the camera in case there is an accident and I need the proof, not coz I'm a film maker or ride like a God and have to bore all with my heroic antics.
