Ooooh another belter of a road! Includes some lovely straight bits to go Skyline baiting too evilhehe

Dare I suggest that that particular road happens to go to Skye....

Before anyone suggests it, I've copywrited "Skyehoon"

Road to skye is better than the roads on skye..... If we do head up round Skye, be sure your dentist insurance is fully paid!!! Some great roads, but some pretty duff ones to, seem to be sinking into the heather in between broadford and portree. I'm sure skyedriver will keep us right on that though. Certainly not capable of the pace of the last run, you'll bounce round some corners.....

Still worth the run for some more fantastic pics. Take your midge repellant!

Quite surprised with the way the VX's went


Ah the unassuming plastic vauxhall have another victum !

When owning a VX the question you always get is [don curious look] "so is it really any good then"

Griff Rhys Jones has a lot to answer for ! ;o)

Just checked my diary,... (as it happens!!!!!),... I was taking pics of the bloke that shut the Kessock Bridge!!!!

F*****g ironic or what!!!!!

It was a call out for a Sunday newspaper. Pics were never used,... "cause he didn't jump"!! LOL,... Bugger got done with breach of the peace!!!

Watch this space! Court case pending.

Anyway,... I'm gonna change my preferencs to email alerts for topic posts. Hopefully I won't miss the next one.

In the Pub!!?? LOL,... chance would be a fine thing.

Yeah, they didn't need to close the bridge. At least, untill we'd passed. Of course, the combined head banging racket of Vipers, Mustangs, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Skylines etc. hooning over the bridge would have given you an exclusive, Guy in his state, would have probably been enough to make the poor sod jump.

Al, no! Was really surprised considering the perception we have of TVR owners as being "enthusiastic" Excpected to be outnumbered by them , but, no. It probably, really was a rather optimistic distance of obscure roads with not a 4 poster ramp within 40 miles to expect too many Tivs.

Volvo 1 - Tiv 0

Tee hee

(would have had the tiv out if I still had it - Chimaera, sold 2004 sob)

Re Skye Roads -
Some bits are good
Some bits are scenic
Some bits are suitable for French cars with VERY soft suspension
Most roads are good for gravel rash and when someone up here says their car has been chipped they don't mean the engine management system

ps mice/rats goy under the bonnet of father in laws S40 whilst up here, gnawe through the plug leads, the sound deadening, odd bits of stuff under the bonnet and the pipe that leads back to the header tank......5 miles up the road - no water!
