Especially just after the Forth Road bridge - must have taken you an hour to get up that one

It's better than England - I did a similar trip in reverse 3 weeks ago - Edinburgh to Bournemouth and back again in a day, 945 mile round trip..........
Picked up a nicely specced race shell though

What did you pick up? Anything interesting?
