Bealach na Bà, or “The Bealach” is a legend amongst cyclists. A pass rising to over 2000 feet from sea level on both sides. The name means the pass of the cattle – the road was originally used to take cattle to market from the village of Applecross. My friend, erstwhile colleague and cycling companion Kenny has long suggested that we should ride it together. He has even suggested, in that way that younger friends can get away with, that I should get a move on before I’m too old to ever manage it.
