Landsend

Cyling over the island of Arran made today a short day's pedalling, although two ferry rides moved me north in a different manner.

One ferryman pronounced the trike not a bike at all and considerable negotiation was required to prevent it becoming the tariff of an articulated truck!

Arran is known as 'Scotland in miniature' but I now know that that description is without doubt, flawed. The mountainous interior of the island proves there's nothing miniature about the high spots as I discovered when tackling the Corrie Pass.
