Desire Lines
Desire Lines: A Scottish Odyssey | David R. Ross
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
David R. Ross not only shows us his Scotland but he teaches us it too. You feel as though you are on the back of his motorcycle listening to the stories of his land as you fly with him up and down the smaller roads, the 'desire lines', of Scotland. Ross takes us off the beaten track and away from the main routes chosen for us by modern road builders. He starts our journey in England and criss-crosses the border telling the bloody tales of the towns and villages. His recounting of Scottish history, its myths and its legends is unapologetically and unashamedly pro-Scots.

As most Scotsmen, he could keep everyone enthralled with his tales. I met him twice; he made me a promise the 1st time, upheld it the 2nd. I was stunned when I'd heard he'd passed in 2008, I was to see him that summer.

If you'd like to read about what to visit in Scotland that isn't on the usual tourist sites, he's your man.

Pinched the photo from Google. Wanted a Freedom Walk one, but hey weren't very good.
