Just Gauging Interest

 

Depending on interest I could turn this into a Scottish Region extended outing :)

 

 

I'm planning on doing a mini tour of North West Scotland late spring/early summer.

 

Up through Glencoe, Fort william then onto the A87.

Cut up through Glen Carron and on towards Applecross

Stop over in Applecross at the campsite, dinner and a couple of beers at the inn

 

Next day up past Torridon to Ullapool and unfortunately another campsite but this time a good choice of watering holes.

If Im on my own I will probably follow this up to a run up to Durness for an overnight before making my way back down the road, and likewise on the first night I might stop over in Glencoe or Fort William. But I realise most dont have much time of work or understanding otherhalfs, so if anyone else is interested I will vary the number of nights away to suit.

Count me in!

 

Depending on dates, can we try and keep it apart from the Nurburgring trip? I'd really like to go to both!

id be up for it depending on dates would be a nice wee break away

I will try to avoid dates for other events, I wouldnt mind the Nurburgring trip myself, but think it would be too much of a strain on the funds with holiday time just around the corner.

pretty easy on dates to be honest, though April, May and June have been better weatherwise lately, and the midge problem isnt as bad mid June onwards

 

How did you get on with the MOT?

goes in on wednesday il leave it as a surprise wether i turn up in the punto or the 300 lol

Sounds great I hope I can make it.

Me too! lol

Could be on for this too. Did this run a few years back even on to Tongue with neighbour with a 330bhp scooby and a 3 litre diesel 3 series bmw. 750 miles in a weekend! Its further than you think! We got quite childish video recording all the cars in a tunnel to see what sounded the best. Was the zed of course with drain pipe sized exhausts. Now got quieter ones on!

I could be up for this depending on dates if im at work or not. plus planning a holiday in june.

Going by the Nurburgring thread it looks like its going to be end of June or July.

 

So gonna provisionally say the end of May for the Northwest Run.

Are you going to chuck some dates up for this so we can get some time of booked!

Hows about the Friday 21 May, thats the week before the bank holiday so the roads shouldnt be quite as busy, and should be just before midge season!

 

What do you fancy Friday to Monday, Friday to Sunday, or leaving on the Saturday?

 

Dates & times negotiable, the destination aint! :biggrin:

 

Gimmie some feedback then I will set the date

I think the dates all depends on how long we're away for. And how long we're away for, will be determined on how far up we wanna go.

Friday the 21st looks ok to me, why don't we say Fri to Mon and if anyone can't do the four days they can just meet up for the days they can! :2guns:
