I've not been on here in ages and just wondered who was still on here that went to the Stirling Runs all these years ago. Back then it was an Imola yellow Audi S4 and then my Misano red B5 RS4. Andy my right hand man had a 911 and then his little bumble bee lotus. Many amazing cars with some great roads. My first ever run was with Si who had the Monaro. Feel free to post up some pics or tell us about your favourite run.

Not sure about Stirling, but there was a Borders run and one down towards the south west that I recall - a certain countach ended up (slightly) in a ditch maybe?

I wasn't on that run, but remember the banter afterwards. I mind you had the T5

There were good runs with lunch stops at Inveraray Castle and Drumlanrig Castle.
The wide range of Porsches were always interesting.

I went on a few of the runs that i think Barry Sillers organised back when i had my Monaro VXR. Must have been about 2010, or 2011.

I did a few of the Stirling runs…

Was a giggle back in the day.
I remember 50+ cars at times having to go in groups to avoid clogging up areas.

I went on a few of the runs which went up Glencoe way. I had not long got my Clio V6. I remember meeting in Dumbarton before setting off.

Young guy (not part of our group) was showing off in some new Jeep, I recall he went through McDonalds car park and coming out somehow managed to crash into some poor passer by.

I must have some pictures somewhere.

My first run was a rude intro to PH. January 2009, met in Falkirk, drove to the Green Welly via Aberfoyle. Weather got a bit, err, tasty and I had <3 weeks RWD experience in a new-to-me Z4 with barely legal rear tyres... I think a couple kept going up to Glencoe but I turned back just north of Tyndrum.



















I went on a few more PH drives in the years after that but can't find my pics from those. Then got quite involved with a group of Z4 owners and tended to go on drives with them. And then kids arrived and I've barely managed a run since biggrin. Met up with mates at a few TT breakfast meets recently.

I remember the flying banana, frequently spotted it - do you still have the gym Kenny? I've chatted to a local guy with a TVR (not the West End gallery owner, but I believe he's got one now too). Currently rumbling around Falkirk in a silver Monaro:

I mind them days with fondness but i don`t have the Monaro and more as a family car is required
