Mark Beaumont is currently attempting to break the NC500 cycle record.
He set out from Inverness at 8am this morning and is travelling clockwise round the 516-mile route.
In 2019, Mark Beaumont told us how the emergence of the NC500 has transformed the far north from an 'unknown wilderness' for biking enthusiasts "to an absolute bucket-list challenge".
Mr Beaumont said: "It truly is the most breathtaking route in the UK."
