Mint is now almost 600 miles into her Lt Col Pedalz record attempt, 238 miles to go and looking strong. She was well past Milnathort by 17:23 compared to a planned time of 18:10 so is still well up on time.

Tiny bit of drama part way up Drumochter…down to one lane and convoy escorted one way traffic…thankfully the guys at the site managed the timings so Minty could sale through. We don’t know their names but they at Legends!

Chris is battling through terrible conditions. Torrential downpours and lower temperatures but she presses on. Still ahead of her schedule

Overnight the weather has been absolutely awful. Torrential downpours and as a result very cold temperatures have taken their toll on Chris. Her and the team have made the brave (but very sad) decision to conclude her attempt. She ended at Dornoch Bridge, still on schedule!!! 😢

My second ever, and longest by 140 miles, ride on a tandem. Kinda goes to show that you don’t need to know what you are doing to have a bash at an Road Records Association record. (Although luckily my pilot has considerably more experience than me!)
