We had a great run round The Borders. Started at Gattonside and head down back roads to Earlston then on towards Duns. There we turned off over the Lammermuir Hills through Longformachus to Humbie.
It was very windy and the Lammermuirs are desolate & exposed. At the highest point we reach 1,3020ft. The fabric saloon isn't keen on a strong, 45mph with higher gusts wind A headwind makes it hard work and difficult to keep a straight course with side winds.
Tailwinds were something else though:
From Humbie onto the A68 to Lauder then over the hill to Galashiels then home.
Total 75 miles
