Applecross Road - the start line
22/04/2006

the start of the applecross road. Now that is a sign to fill you with dread!! A 2000 foot climb up the side of a mountain. We set off with a couple of minutes apart cause its single track all the way, huge hairpin corners both up hill and downhill. The uphill hairpins were fabby. Drop down into first gear and turn into the corner then give it a bootful (you are driving up the side of a mountain) and feel the LSD keep the car straight as you light up the rear tyres. Woooo hooooo. Oh and when I started my run it started to rain. Do I take that as a sign to go slow. Of course I did.............
