Taking a Break on Arthur's Seat

Taking a break on Arthur's Seat
Buster's little tour around Edinburgh started with a climb up Arthur's Seat. This road has a single lane with parking spaces, so cars, taxis, minibuses, and a continental tour coach had to wait behind us whilst I pedalled between parking bays. We stopped here to admire the view and adjust the gear change cable slightly, as Buster kept slipping into second (not good on a hill climb). The summit is that lump to the right, but the road doesn't go any higher and I wasn't prepared to carry Buster up there, no matter how much I appreciated his company.
