The Etape Caledonia Cycle Sportive took place in Highland Perthshire yesterday.  5,500 cyclists (myself included) rode the 81 miles course around the best 
scenery the area has to offer!  


Blessed with a dry day the event was once again a huge success.  The fastest man crossed the line in 3 hours 30 minutes, I was almost an hour behind at 4 hours 29 minutes, but enjoyed every minute!
