There is a pub in the village. Shops are a 15 min ride away If I remember correctly. |
Once I arrive I don't plan on being capable of riding lol. The vodka and Jack Daniels is already packed

Good to hear that despite the chilly forecast that folks are starting to head North. Wee shelter is up and firewood at the ready - look forward to seeing you all soon. Angus and I will be on site from early afternoon. - Chizz

Thanks to Bruce & Angus for a great weekend! Despite the interesting ride up on Friday it was great to see friends old & new and to have fun around the fire. I had a great ride home, via the smaller roads! Beej x

Angus & Bruce, thanks for getting us all together again. Fantastic weekend even though we arrived late, on the plus side I left late as well.

I would have liked to be there and catch up but a trip to morocco over ran . hopefully next time . A meet-up in the borders was mentioned at hercules weekend, any interest ?

Finally thawed out
A fantastic weekend after a nightmare journey there. 3 lots of, snow 2 hailstorms and 1 rainstorm. The best thing about the rain was it washed the snow off my visor! Finally arrived and Chizz handed me a beer which slipped straight through my fingers as I could not close them. A roaring brazier and a few drams from a hip flask eventually took the numbness away and left me feeling like I merely wanted to die. A night in minus 4C left me in my sleeping bag til midday on the Saturday. By contrast -2 on the Saturday night seemed positively tropical.
Great to see everyone again and found it hard to believe it was 6 years since the last one. Would I do it again? Definitely although on the way home I may have thought about flogging the bike and getting a campervan. The rest of the journey home via Durness, Applecross, Loch Lomond and Edinburgh is the stuff of legends. If it could of gone wrong it did!! Hopefully this will become an annual event again. Beej, let me know if the Pillars of Hercules is on again this year. I will try to get to it again. Huge thanks to Bruce and Chizz for all the effort put in to make it such a great weekend. I know how time consuming it is to undertake. GM |
Covid allowing
Would it be a tad premature to ask if anything like this is/could be pulled off this year gents....??? Got a scratch that needs itching...!!!

A scotland mini meet would be excellent.
But I haven't got a free weekend until Mid August ;) |
