Title: Another great route

Short diversion off the Grantown - Nairn road to Lochindorb, I tink the bike looks OK without panniers (from some angles!)  :)  Getting rid of the standard exhaust helps though. Sorry about the poor quality, camera phone.

Nice piccies there Bondu.

Not a million miles from where I used to live in my youth at Forres.

If anyone gets up that way this is an interesting location to visit if you enjoy a bit of history.

The Dog Cemetery where the Officers would bury their dogs.

Well worth a visit, but expect it to take you all day virtually to see everything and take everything in.

Small world, the fort is about 2 miles from our house

My Dad was based at Kinloss just outside Forres. Some very decent roads and locations up in Scotland, hence my trip there in just under two months.  ;D
