2013 Scotland Tour

Can everyone attending this trip please send me a personal message with their full name, mobile number and bike colour - I'm putting a list together for everyone going as it could come in very handy before and after - if anyone would prefer not to share this let me know and will just let Colin and myself have the numbers - they won't be published here - just included in the rotue guide I am putting together.

Also rough area you are travelling from may help some plan getting north / south

 

Just met up with Alblade to go over the Route Guide for the tour.

Really nice guy and probably knows more of Scotland than I do with the amount of miles he's done up here

 

Good to catch up - trip going to be epic, good news is I am almost fluent in Scottish now from trips with work / on bike etc. Some English will get a right shock at some of the lingo but my top tip is just answer 'aye' and nod!

Have a few ideas / suggestions to share with all - currently in a bar with a bottle of Brew Dog so all is good.

 

Question is Al. Which bike will you be bringing on tour???

 

Hmm, easy one to answer, 1,300 mile trip - one bike is sub 30mpg and the other over 50

Do the math as they say in the US

 

Yes epic it will be!!!! I have to confess Al I've been sporting a considerable semi since booking up for our Highland jaunt!

Trev

 

Dont be sharing a room with the Firebloke using that sort of language it may get you into trouble!

 

and now only 9 weeks

 

That reminds me........I must remember to pack the ceiling harness!

 

58 Days to this I think as we go over it Sunday morning to the Green Welly from Glencoe - other direction to this pic but still epic.

 

And lets hope for them blue skys. and now its 57 days to go

 

And my bike is now lubed, serviced, luggaged up & ready to go
Except for the back tyre, which is in my garage waiting to be fitted so I don't square it off in the mean time.

Looking up for those blue skies though.

 

Nothing wrong with being prepared early. Loving the colour scheme

 

Exciting news guys

I've just had confirmation from HRCTrev that we now have ourselves a few parade laps of the Knockhill Race Circuit on the Friday that we set of for the tour.

A big thanks to HRCTrev is on the cards I think.

 

Im happy with that

 

Great news, never been to this circuit.

 

Will the full one piece leather suit apply at Knockhill ?

 

I'm still undecided on Textiles or 2 peice leathers. I'll let the weather dictate nearer the time.
If going with leathers then I'll be carrying these just in case:-

 

A 2 piece suit is fine. I don't think we will be bombing it round anyways as it will just be parade laps n not a trackday
