Day 10 - Moffat to Kinross

Day 10 was 82 miles and 4,000 feet of climbing. We headed north from Moffat, into the Scottish Borders, through Edinburgh (crowded with tourists there for the Fringe Festival), across the Firth of Forth, and another 20 miles north to the small town of Kinross.

We started with a 1,000-foot, 6-mile climb at at an easy 4% grade, followed by a spectacular 12-mile descent, where we hardly had to touch the brakes. Soon we were traveling through moorland, surrounded by mountains. Larry felt like he was in a Western, and it certainly looked like that.
