Baz, not sure yet if I can make it but will try to come along
Cheers Al I'll put you down as a mebeez.
If it's bad weather I'll still go, but we could cut it shortish n make it a fun run to a nice food stop?
Ok I'll work up a quicky route using the bigger roads as a contingency.

Hmmm play granturismo5 (santa's present) in the warmth with a JD & coke or head out in the cold and be all social & sober. Maybe! Would be good to get the car moving again - it's been stuck standing for the last month!

Guys - I am going to run the route that I have sent out on boxing day morning - if its dodgy anywhere (especially the first "alpine" section) I will send an amended route using the same start point that we had for the November Argyll run.

It will be clear in the e-mail, either way i'll post when I get back.

Cheers B

  • ********************IMPORTANT ROUTE CHANGE*****************************************
The Duke's Pass is a little squirrely this morning and as we have a possibility of some snow overnight I have decided to change the route to the less challenging alternative to ensure we keep everybody's P&J intact.



The new route has been emailed and is only about 3 miles shorter but it stays on major roads.



Please note the NEW MEET POINT is in the route (same as the Argyll Run in November)

Cheers Barry

I’m dropping out, I’m afraid.

The car’s running okay but after yesterday’s thaw-then-freeze weather, I can’t get it out of the garage and up the street in one piece.

Hope it’s a good wee run guys, enjoy yourselves!
