Hello again.
Looking forward to following your trip through your blogs!

It's been a lot of fun
reading your blogs, figuring out who wrote it without looking at the name. For us vicarious travelers, you've been the best. Many thanks, Fran

Whew . . . !
We didn't know how much more armchair cycling we could take! You have provided quite the "reading ride" for those of us back home! We've been whipped by the wind, soaked by the rain and sore from hilly bike battles. Every once in a while we take a break from reading your blog and ride to town for beer and chocolates! (^_^) Thank you for providing such a wonderful travel diary. Smithy and I are headed to visit Dolly's family on Sunday . . . we hope to get together with Claire. Have a safe trip home, and God Bless You! Mary

You took some layers off!
Hi K, K, K and J, The islands look awesome....now I've become jealous of your trip especially now that the miles are behind you, the jackets and fleece have come off and your at some tropical looking beaches albeit in the northern latitudes. Have a safe end of the trip and journey home. See you soon, S, G, A, Z and T

You must be exhausted!
It's been an interesting ride. Thanks for sharing.

Uncle Boom Boom and Aunt Karen, It's Libby, just wanted to let you know I graduated from high school last night and I wanted to wish Uncle Boom Boom a happy birthday!

Nomenclature
Alright, I see that my name has been put on your blog. Nomenclature, ay? Well, Fearsome Foursome doesn't quite fit. You four are about as fearsome as a clutch of kittens. But I have to admit that it took "balls" (sexism is not dead) to tackle on bikes Scottish roads, hills, weather, and the occasional wild driving Scot (with too much Scotch in his system). So, I suggest that Fearless Foursome would be a more appropriate name. But, then, since you all have admitted that you are all "Old Farts," perhaps "Flatulent Foursome" could also fit. How else could you make it up those hills?

Hills and Dales
Great story, Jim. Why not write a book when you return. Then I can cycle vicariously with you. Elaine

Happy Birthdays to you guys
June 7th - It's a good day to celebrate the birthdays of Kit and Jim. Once the clock chimes 5:00, or whatever, I'm sure you'll be lifting your glasses in celebration. We'll be toasting to your good health as well. Party on!

Thanks
Thank you, Kit, for telling us something about the Orkneys, where I have longed to go and never will. And thank you, all, for sharing your adventure.

Orkney
Hi! Thank you for these posts. Jeff and I have fond memories of our adventure in the Orkneys - and your blog is jogging our own stories. I am having fun following you all remotely!

Jim, you provide a very valuable need to the group: the ability to lighten the mood. Your humor, or I guess it's humour over there, is a necessity on an expedition like the one you're on. Awesome entry! I hope my mom brings some of that chocolate home and shares it with me.

Loved the profiles, Jim. It's fun to think what role a person plays in a group setting and how it evolves over time. Sounds like all are doing well and that I will never be able to bike with any of you again. Four buff bikers you are! Have even more fun in your remaining weeks and give our regards to Janet and Steve at St Bees. We are missing you all. I eat my new favorite Scottish oat cracker and dream about the four of you. I have never followed a blog before (except your China one) but anxiously await each entry. That's good writing and high praise from me.

Well done!
Congratulations on reaching the top (almost) of my homeland. I hope the weather is kind to you on the next leg of your adventure.

Good on ya!!
Congratulations all of you for getting to the end of the road! Good on ya! Quite the accomplishment. All you've missed here is a bunch of rain and the grass growing and the kids growing like weeds. See you in a few weeks, Shannon and Grant

Congratulations
I enjoyed the stories. Doing 30 miles a day with a beer, scotch or whiskey to look forward to at the end of the day is the way to do it.

Fond memories
This brought back memories of our own trip to the north of Scotland - although ours was somewhat easier by car! ([blog=438589]) I'm anxiously waiting to hear what you thought of John o'Groats!

Did you guys run into any wind?

Congrats!
Congrats on completing the "end to end" part of your trek! Not only are you folks great adventurers on bicycles, you all are great travel writers. It's been such fun "following" your blog.

The Clearances
Some years ago I read a book which may well have been titled The Highland Clearances. I don't think it papered anything over, including the removal of the roofs of the crofters' cottages, leaving the tenants with little choice other than accepting passage to Canada.

snow!
I felt for you guys when I read of the snow storms across Grampian and the Cairngorm mountains last week - a foot of snow in places! Trust the suns been out since and helped you thaw! It is downhill to Inverness, if you have a chance to stop at the Black Isle Brewery for a tour and sample I'd take the detour. All the best!
