It's happened twice now - I've happened to be crossing the road by the Three Tuns (and it takes a long time to cross the road now that Islay is so slow!) and a couple of touring cyclists have come up from the bridge, turned towards Clifford, stopped, consulted their maps, and looked confused.
So naturally I ambled over and offered to help.
Both lots of cyclists were trying to get to Hereford via Peterchurch and the Golden Valley, which is a lovely picturesque run - but the sign at the junction pointed to Hereford along the Clifford road, which joins up again with the main road. Not such a lovely run on a bike.
So I pointed them off up the hill, and started wondering if the Council should ask for an extra sign down by the horse trough, pointing to Peterchurch. After all, who knows how many cyclists have got hopelessly lost because there wasn't anyone there to ask when they came round the corner?
