Memorials and sculptures on an ebike round from Langholm via Tarras Valley and the Debatable Land. Hen harriers, merlin and even a rare sighting of the tailwind. Good descents too...

Delightful ecycling along @SustransScot #NCN1 by the Moray Firth. No skinks were harmed by our lunch from Cullen Co-op...

The #CaledoniaWay's a cracker of a route...

A lovely spot to wait for the ferry... Another update from Lesley! "Bright & cold, with a bitter north wind. Route 78 fantastic on old railway line & beautiful woods & nature reserve. How quickly things change from sunshine to blizzard! Thanks to @Sustrans for a great route."

Finally checked out the "new" section of #CaledoniaWay near Duror: smooth tarmac, the "world's largest bug hotel" and lots of Lobarion on the trees. Well done @SustransScot: much nicer than the busy road!

The Butt of Lewis. End of the @Hebridean_Way cycling route. Supposedly Britain's windiest spot but calm and sunny today...seabirds aplenty and was that a lost black redstart at the lighthouse?

When in South Harris it's always good to visit the amazing 16th century tomb of Alasdair MacLeod at Rodel.

"The vista before me is the finest in Europe. A joy to behold...". That's what it says on the @TallaNaMara window and who are we to disagree? Nippy morning though...

Such a beautiful spot by the shore! Here's hoping Berneray and the other @GatliffHostels can open soon for folk on the @Hebridean_Way. @OHTimelessWay

Beautiful morning at @RSPBScotland Balranald. Wheatears, merlin, corn bunting. A cacophony of waders with skylark backing track. @HebridesBirds

Hello from Port Nis & thanks so much for having me! Not sure how I’ll follow such an excellent week from Baile Sear. I loved the old photos – if anyone has any to tweet of themes/places I raise this week please do!

Situation vacant close to the Bay Cycle Way theguardian.com/uk-news/2021…
Happy Wotsit everyone! We're going to have a festive break, so if you want to order any books (hint: they make great pressies for the cyclist in your life), you'd best do it before Saturday 18th Dec...or you'll need to wait until Thurs 6th January when online sales will restart.

Sad news about Morecambe Bay folk
fionamusicinthelakes (@fionamusiclakes) profile picturefionamusicinthelakes@fionamusiclakes20 Nov 2021
Unbelievably sad tonight that we have lost Cedric too, only weeks after his beautiful Olive died 💔 Cedric was a giant in the history of our bay but of far more importance he was the adoring husband of Olive for nearly 60 years and couldn’t live without her 💔 😪
