    This Saturday last year l was enjoying Breakfast at the Craiglynne Hotel, Granton on Spey with the best bunch of dudes ever ;) as our Tour of Scotland was well under way! :D
    After breakie I watched Dave V get jiggy with his waterproofs just before I shot off after Bruce Smart,Jimbo,Dave, Andy and the boys heading up to John'o' Groats like an excited pup only to get rescued by Al Blade as the rest of us guys were heading across to Mike's (Giv) favourite goat trial! Applecross!!.. and then on to Spean Bridge to end off an other cracking day! The Silver Fox (Firebloke) found a wee pub for our evening meal which turn out to be an absolute hoot with Jason,Garyb,ColinBr and Giv and the rest of the boys!
    Ahh good times with the most amazing group of guys each and everyone of them!!.. :D

    Salt of the earth really ;)

    Thanks for the memories dudes :)

    Wow!! Can't believe that was a year ago. Was an amazing weekend and even the weather couldn't put a downer on things!

    That ride to John o groats in the rain is something ill never forget ;)

    Also can't believe it was the start of the big mans epic adventure and the crazy idiot is still riding his gixxa non stop a year on! Lol

    That weekend hasn't finished for him :(

    T'was a mint weekend, made new friends had a lot of laughs and some nice riding out on some great roads! :)

    Was my first ride out on current bike too since picking it up, was all going pretty well and settling in till the pirelli's got aquinted with the rain........Pirelli will never don my bike again while its being used on the roads that's for sure!

    Will never forget those seriously bloodshot eyes Andy was wondering around with on the Sat nite! ;)

    Looks like a cracking journey was had by all, I recognise loads of the roads you were on too.

    If your going to do something similar again I will definitely come along for the crack.

    I was thinking of this last night actually when on my way down thru the Lake District.

    Can't believe this is already a year ago.
    Things have been so busy this year, with me moving jobs and home that it has went passed in a blur.

    Next year I plan on making up for lost time though, as even this year looks to be a very busy year with the pitter patter of small feet due this summer.

    The Scotland Tour is without doubt 1 of the best experiences I have ever had, and 1 I hope to repeat.

    Good times indeed ;)

    You'll do it no sweat mate, not waiting for me to put on waterproofs should save a day, or two!
