Hopefully see you there Ian.

So far, myself, Wullie, JC, Paul and his mate(s) and Ian (hopefully) are meeting at the little chef. Nice wee convoy up the A82 to Tyndrum :D

Been having a bit of a think about this run and we all seem to be sorted for getting to meeting points and then on to The Green Welly.
What are the plans from there on?
Are we still heading to Fort William?
Any other plans?

Plenty of practise Graham and a healthy disregard for back tyres :wink:
A very enjoyable meet, nice to see everybody again. Its funny how you can cover loads of miles and not really notice if your in a group and having a laugh.
