Words pictures and hopefully a bit of inspiration, 3rd time lucky Tom 12 years old finishes the Highland Trail 550.

I've split it into 4 sections so you don't have to read it all in a oner. :)

Nice photos, sounds like a grand adventure. Well done the wee man

Truly awes0me achievement. Little bit of bikepacking legend I reckon.

Most excellent, made up you both finished it, memories for life

Excellent

Amazing, Tom's got a great future ahead of him!

Thanks folks, glad you enjoyed it.

Brilliant - well done to you both - great photos and read.

Inspiring stuff, a proud dad and his lad

Brilliant. I've been looking forward to reading this and seeing your pics.

I hope you didn't make Tom go to bed early for getting the pad type wrong

Fantastic achievement and a great write-up

Just so you know I'm reading Jules Verne and planning an attempt on Tom's record.

Seriously well done to the little fellow maybe I'll make it round on my third attempt!

Very well done guys !
I like the ad-hoc repairs and determination to finish

well done to you both, excellent achievement tom, you will realise one day how lucky you are to have a great motivated dad.
