Andy Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Friday from a spectators point of view is, in my opinion, the best day of the SSDT. It's a "must-do" in my book. The majority of sections are pretty close to the road and you get the awesome drive round Moidart where the views are absolutely stunning. Meandering round this year, I stopped off and took some shots I've stitched together to give some idea of what it's like out there. It doesn't really do it justice, but if you've never been, take a look at this panorama. (1.3MB so dial-up users beware). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted May 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Friday was cracking weather - which nobody expected after the totally amazing thunderstorm we had on Thursday night. It was one of the most spectacular I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
