    In the 1950s my dad, Hugh Paterson, did a LOT of cycle touring around Scotland.
    I don't think he made it to Skye. But he and his pals went all over the highlands on 10-speed bikes, and even rode all the way to London and back one time.
    He used to tell me, "Miles build stamina, but hills create character." These ladies have both in spades!
    Live long and keep pedalling!

    500 miles back in 1936? Woww....truly an astonishing achievement! Even by today standard looking at the difficult terrain, it is an amazing achievement.

    What a superb film. Really enjoyed the nod to history with Mary's story. Would be great to normalise that kind of adventure today. Really enjoyed watching Lee, Phillips and Alice's journey through the Highlands. I am visiting Islay and Jura in September, utilising the amazing facilities of Hostelling Scotland. More videos please.

    Absolutely wonderful!!! Love the spirit, play, and all around happiness that the ladies were having. And having backpacked in most of those places, it was so wonderful to see them again. But this August, I'm coming back to *bike*pack the Highlands and looking forward to staying at a few of the hostels.
