Day 10 - A Winnie the Pooh sort of Blustery Day

No rain - hurrah. Instead a very blustery headwind - Boo Hiss! Well you can't have it both ways. Apart from the headwind -pedalling hard to go downhill, pedalling on the spot uphill the day started OK - a bit cold. A nice route undulating through Kelty and Kinross past Loch Leven. - Then a 12% descent into the flat Tay valley - very english looking leafy lanes and farmland. We pedalled on stopping for lunch sitting in the sun! in Perth - a rare treat. The afternoon saw both the weather and the countryside change - the wind settled down and we had alternative hard rain and sun. We climbed through Dunkeld then up high above the A9 - yet more beautiful scenery. Finally we arrived in Pitlochry a little later than we'd planned but with enough time to visit the hydro electric dam and Salmon ladder - well worth a visit. -Thanks for the tip Malcolm and Pam. Aviemore tomorrow.
