The summer is coming to an end and September is just round the corner. I had been hoping to get a 1-2 week cycle/camping trip fitted in this year but have been so busy with one thing or another it just hasn’t been possible. I’m heading to Denmark at the beginning of the month and would have loved to do a cycle tour there. But with there being no ferries between Scotland and Scandinavia nowadays this was possible but just too complicated to organise. Maybe I’ll look into hiring a bike when I’m there, just to experience cycling in Scandinavia. If only to see how it compares to here.

Something I could hope for is a late spell of mild and dry weather at the end of September to allow me to get away and complete maybe another island trip or perhaps the Scottish Coast to Coast ride I’ve been thinking about for the past year. We’ll see when I return but meanwhile I’ll still keep building up the miles day by day.
