A Perfect Day
A fantastic day was had by all on Sunday, as Team Donaldson enjoyed perfect weather, incredible scenery and first class Highland hospitality in Oban.
Team Donaldson was joined by MGM Broxburn's Tony Hayes, as he cycled with Neil, Val, Andy, David and Alan from Crianlarich up to MGM Oban.

Oban
Started our trip south toward Glasgow. We were going to take the short route to Oban, but there was an accident on the road we were on (must have been literally minutes before we approached beacuse we beat the police and fire truck).

Today was only going to be 12 miles and I was hoping that it would be an easier day today. Lets hope! I picked up my packed lunch from reception, paid my bill and set off. As I ...
