Ten minute run to warm the oil up before doing a wee service turned into an hour, and I forgot how good this stretch of road can be on a decent dry day
So I had to play for a bit
Fettercairn to Strachan, B974, It's like a small copy of the Applecross run, Highly recommended if you like twisties and find yourself on the area

Cairn o'Mount is looking good, a bit cold yesterday I would have thought.
We took the diavels through Netherley and down the coast to Montrose yeaterday, it was fun but chilly.

Looks nice. I do love it when you can see through bend so confidence inspiring.
