I'm not a big group rider but it would be nice to have a Scottish meet up sometime this year.

A Sunday in the Middle of May I'm thinking.

Routes would need to be decided but I'm thinking meeting up in Fife, along to crief - loachearn head, to callandar trossachs trail then home...... about 150 miles ish.

As I said im not a big group rider, cant be arsed stopping off for a bite to eat for an hour when you could be riding, but there will be fag/piss stops. Just not hours of fannying about going to cafes for a cup of tea every twenty miles and taking wky pictures of the local sites.

Anyone interested?

I'd be up for this if the weather ever decides to warm its punk ass up.

I'm thinking May the 12th or 19th.

another possible route, trying to make it fair on everyone from the East to the West so we all have the same mileage to do.

Both suggested routes are 3 - 4 1/2 hours so a decent distance.

Plan would be for everyone to show up on a full/nearly full tank with one planned fuel stop (planned meaning the cheapest petrol station on route preferably with some loyalty scheme) and to hit a burger van.

with a few pee/fag/red bull stops flung in.

So, the 19th it is then. I can probably reschedule some stuff so I can still make it.

I suppose I could muster some enthusiasm for this.
If it ever gets warm.
