TYRE seems to be VERY optimistic when giving the travel time, I suspect it just uses the speed limit rather than real travel times,


fwiw Tony, i've never used tyre or google to estimate times/timing, whether for a trip or a Sunday run. Apart from traffic/size of roads, there are too many variables such as fuel stops for some every 120 miles etc...
So i tend to use approx 40mph as the average speed , and then add in the time for fuel/pee/coffee/lunch etc...if the roads look tight on street view, then i might bring that down to 35mph.

Loved the write up, very inspiring. I really think an all one colour car club could be a thing!

Great write up Tony. Brilliant roads although I doubt i’d do the Wrynose Pass again. Applecross is a doddle in comparison.

Like Duncan, I didn’t take many photo’s although I may have some on my camera which i’ll upload when I get a chance.

It was a brilliant 8 days with great weather and lots of the usual SKCC banter.

Great video Tony, I think that short video has summed up the trip very well.

I posted the Day 2 video & even checked it ran on Youtube, but since that one time it's just showed as an error, so I've deleted it & am uploading again.

Wrynose Pass
None of the still show how steep & twisty it is, but some of these GoPro grabs go some way towards it.
