<p>We made it !!!!</p> <p>After 5 days of tough cycling through some fantastic&nbsp;countryside we reached Stranraer on Monday evening. We came all the way from Inverness to Ullapool and down the western isles a distance of around 460 mls.&nbsp;The scenery (when we could see it) was amazing however we&nbsp;also experienced the worst of Scottish weather and the final stretch to the boat was very challenging. Athough the&nbsp;weather could have been kinder&nbsp;we had a great trip and when we've all dried out will no doubt reflect on the better bits. The bikes need a rest for a while!!</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Stranmillis Downhillers</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Stephen Adams, Nial O&rsquo;Neill, Colin Conn, Colin Chestnutt, Mark Kelly, Des Ewing, Krzysztof Tomaszewicz, Raymond McIntyre, Conor Byrne, Alastair Clarke, Michael Colwell,&nbsp;Anthony Hayes, Peter Moran. <span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Not Pictured </span></span>Ralph Dickey.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">This year we are collecting for Marie Curie and hope you can support this very worthy cause even in difficult times.
