CRM's bike ride to support Teenage Cancer Trust: Day Two – Brora to Inverness

Inverness and the River Ness: Christmas 2009

21st August 2013: 'Route 66!'
The second day of CRM's ride is likely to be another long day riding the sixty miles into Inverness from Brora. Unfortunately some of the route has to be done on the A9. This will be the early part from Brora along to Dornoch and the bridge across the Dornoch Firth. Then it is through to Dingwall on minor roads before cutting across the Black Isle and over the Kessock Bridge to Inverness passing on the south side the football ground of Inverness Caledonian Thistle – the current leaders of the Scottish Premier League!       

We will be staying with friends in Inverness and CRM will be pleased to have 140 miles clocked off – just over the halfway mark after two days.  


Carole (CRM) is riding to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust in memory of her niece, Esme Morris Macintyre, who died on 7th July 2013 aged 18 after a very courageous and inspirational nearly seven-year battle against the disease. You can donate here. More details here
