Mennock Pass - Stevie would like to point out he dosnt really have that much grey hair
5 miles further on and we come to Wanlockhead, the highest village in Scotland. Parked outside the Leadhills mining museum. Area is best known for gold mining and you can still go along and stand up to your knees in a river and pan for gold if that's your thing.
Head on to Elvanfoot and take the A702 to Carronbridge, the Dalveen Pass. I think this is now Stevies new favourite road. 15 miles of bliss. Road starts off climbing over the moors and then into the mountains and then drops quickly down into farmland. Very little traffic and twisty bits all the way
Had to steal someone else's pic for this bit as it was just too good to stop. Took a bit of a wrong turn after this and instead of taking the main road home, too what ended up as a single track forest road for 15 miles. Turned out to be a cracking road. 15 miles and the only other thing on the road was one bike heading in the other direction.
Shame we couldn't get down and join everyone else for the big run but at least he had some fun ourselves.
Just think it looks interesting when I pass it - well anything's more interesting than motorway driving, apart from HD MC's of course.
sounds like a bunch of hooray Henry's or a breakback mountain appreciation society
