yeah you should have a blast round scotland

Rutz and meself have talked about this. Maybe a whole weekend thing, with B&B's, take better halves along, sorta exup club holiday. Thing is I'd do 170 miles just to cross the border, and motorways all way would do my head in. But I agree roads are well good up there. When scotland becomes independent in 2010, I'm emigrating north.
......Its only an hour on a fzr
The EXUP stickered zimmer frame is mine and I aint got no friends

I hate the Loch Lomond road from Tarbet to near the Drovers Inn, its always soaking wet no matter what time of year and you need to dodge tourist coaches and foreign drivers.
A better road is from Tarbet head the other way towards Arrochar, then to Inveraray , then out towards Garelochhead and up to Oban.
Excellent roads, hardly any traffic or potholes, loads of sweeping bends and less cops than going straight up Lomondside to the Fort
I did Mine--->Macclesfield--->Whalley Bridge--->Buxton--->Cat&Fiddle--->Macclesfield--->Congleton--->Alderley Edge--->Mine early last Sunday morning.
About 70 miles and leaving at 6:45am there's no traffic and it's a lovely ride even vaguely keeping to the speed limit.
Yoda, If you're used to getting up early with that WVM job, get your ass up here one morning once I've done the shock on this 400 as we'll have an early morning blast on that route.
alright metalface. the video clip is mine and the bloke that put it on youtube is the lad who came second on the nsr250
brilliant racing hopefully we will see you there next year

So that'd be a 6am start from mine to be at yours for 6.45. Why not indeed. That'd be a lie in these days.
