Day 16 – Helmsdale to Inverness

Day 16 – Helmsdale to Inverness

Share on social media

Another 70 mile job. This time the wind wasn’t in my face, and it wasn’t raining.

Stopped for a £3 meal deal in Tesco in Tain, the home of the Glenmorangie brewery, which was closed.

Otherwise, it was a day of straight cycling.

Took some great pictures along the way.

Today, I have to go from Inverness to Elgin, or there-abouts.

Here’s some pictures I took along the way.

Inverness YHA

Last night I stopped in Inverness YHA. Standard dorm bed job.

Nicky Tams – Inverness

Walked down to a restaurant called ‘Nicky Tams‘ which was one of the best meals I’ve had.

Salmon with capers and honey and mustard dressed salad, followed by Chicken in a whisky sauce jus with sautéed potatoes, baked field mushroom and mange tut. Then sticky toffee pudding.

It was called the ‘pre-theatre’ and all came for £16.95.

The beer was also excellent.

Probably the best place I’ve been to eat.

5 stars.

McDonalds

Just dropped in. 🙂 for big mac.
