Fresh from the NC500

No doubt this has been covered plenty of times.. but after years of wanting to do the NC500 me and a few friends found a week that worked for everyone.

Hands down some of the best roads I've driven on, I had to keep reminding myself that we hadn't even left the country ha

Ha, I get that.. some of the single track roads sure did give the car a beating.

The rest of the roads and scenery was incredible though, definitely beats what we have here in North Yorkshire!

Looks great, I've got this to look forward to in September. Starting from Inverness and doing it anti clockwise, fingers crossed the weathers ok

ACW is the best way to do it , North East coast is a bit bleak so best get it out of the way first.

Certainly not driving nirvana as some websites would have you believe , but a decent drive non the less so just take it easy and enjoy the vista.

We were looking forward to the view along the Bealach na Ba but the weather had other ideas and we couldnt see much due to the low cloud.
