With James and Kim on the Pyg Track route up Snowdon and the Miners Track route down. A little cloud on the summit for our morning arrival, but cleared nicely as we emerged from the cafe and gave us a wonderful warm and sunny descent.

Biking and Hiking Chapter Two

Fantastic week of hillwalking and tandeming in the Cairngorms, Torridon and Skye, using the motorhome to its full advantage and "following the weather". It just so happens that for the second year running the weather took us the pretty much the best places it possibly could have. We feel very lucky.

The One Show

The BBC's One Show came to do a piece on us as we celebrated 30 years of the flying school. Gordon flew the presenter, Andy Kershaw, and I flew the cameraman alongside for some air to air shots and they joined in and interviewed club members during the evening party. We got some great publicity from the wee film they made about us which aired on prime time evening telly.

There's a video clip of Kim's interview here youtu.be/vOLzhgzncjw The audio can be heard over the wind noise if you listen carefully.
