Riding in the tracks in the snow made by cars and simultaneously wiping yer visor constantly don't make for relaxed riding I can tell ya!
Gary, yer biggest problem is the vicious little midgie barstewards. Camping will be just hellish and is summat I wouldn't contemplate in August. The little gits are at the apogee of their fury then and DO NOT take prisoners I can tell ya. You'll need to B&B it or go somewhere else if you really wanna camp.![[Image: ohmy.gif]](http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif)

Yes - early May preferably to avoid midges. Though with the late freezes this year the midge larvae may be reduced in number - fingers crossed.![[Image: rotflmmfao.gif]](http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rotflmmfao.gif)
But if you can't make it to Ecosse that early - then the Moray Firth coast east of Inverness - Portsoy and Cullen for example are great in summer. B) <b>AND Midge free</b> . But also mountain free - still beautiful though.![[Image: smile.gif]](http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif)
