The event was the day after Man V Mountain which I had also photographed.
This led to a staggering 817 miles covered and me visiting Wales, England and Scotland in one epic weekend. Even covering such a large area of the United Kingdom I still managed to get the best of the weather for both days. Result…
Pedal for Scotland is made up of three different events:
1. The Classic Challenge Glasgow-to-Edinburgh ride
2. The Big Belter (a 100-mile sportive)
3. The 10-mile Wee Jaunt between Linlithgow and Edinburgh.
For this event I was to cover part of the finish before another photographer took over, then moving on to another location.
My second location was almost at the end of Edinburgh airport runway and as you will see planes made an appearance in many of the images as they taxied the runway and took off which made for some interesting photos. I was able to find a spot that put the new Forth Road Bridge in the background of the photos (although small it is there!) Many of the riders were happy to see me and did different things to catch my attention and be photographed, there was even Woody and Buzz Lightyear on a tandem.
