Write Up Scottish run 2019

[Mint]

Oops. Sorry @Mint, forgot to say, if Carlsberg did group leaders .......... top top top hooning and weaving like a F1 car warming its tyres up whilst dodging pot holes

Oh, next time I'll take mine out of low ratio

Andy, it was great fun having a bit of a hoon. Avoiding the pot holes was an extra hazard, we all got into the habit of frantically waving to the car behind, pointing to them as we (hopefully) missed them, well most of them.

Excellent photos all

 

[Pls]

Thanks again to Steve and Lynne for organising the weekend. As promised here are a few of my photos. I've tried not to replicate ones already posted but I'm sure there will some similar
Till another time....

Thanks Dave, they are superb photos, a lovely reminder of a great run.

I missed posting this one taken at the last tea stop on Skye:

Cheers

Paul

Just had Blue returned to me

Complete with knackered wheel. Many thanks to @mwpe for taking my broken wheel on tour with him. At least the wheel got to see the sights



Just happy she’s back. Should be picking up the newly powder coated set of spare wheels on Saturday morning. So all will be good again.

Mike - I’ve posted the front side light covers today. Should be with you by the end of the week.

So am I buddy. But just gives me an excuse to plan another trip

On another note. The hire car I had was a Hyundai i30 Blue something or other. Did the 500 mile return trip only using £28 of diesel! Witchcraft I say

Great photos (having an issue loading a number of them though) sounds like you had a great time (minus the few mishaps).

Yes I normally drive with my eyes closed maybe you should try driving the west coast of Scotland, you are forever swerving potholes, one lapse in concerntration and its over

So many great pictures from the cruise that I can't offer anything new but here are a few from my post cruise trip to Forres.

I took the route along the old military road on the south side of Loch Ness.
