Solo - 7.15am start from Linn of Dee in the dark with icy rain, but ended up with blue skies, though 45+mph gusts at the summit were fun! Completed the route on foot, no bike this time and got back to the car at 12:45pm - giving me time to drive 3hrs home before dark.	mproudfoot	21/11/2020

2/3 After Sgor Mor (time is for both). Up and down tourist route. Waited 20mins for summit to clear, it did only when I was half-way down. Grey day, low cloud, showers, stiff breeze, cold. Biked out.	Rounsfell	10/09/2020
