I'm happy to organise a run sometime. Have put me down for July in the Wiki but no real preference other than post Gumball would be good.

It was subtly mentioned.

No thread though.

Was thinking of Ayrshire too but am happy to do somewhere else. Dumfries & Galloway?

Might be doing the HH at this rate! smile

Hi Folks

Hope you don't mind me hijacking this thread, but a few of us PH'ers from Southeast Englandshire are planning to grace your shores this coming August to take advantage of your fine roads, hospitality, whisky and women. (Okay, maybe not the women.)

I've been lucky enough to have done a couple of trips up in recent years (including a moist but memorable Monaro 5.7 Borders Run in 2009) so have a fairly good idea of where we want to go.

The general plan is to spend 4-5 days in Scotland and to approximately do a lap of the country going clockwise via the Trossachs, Mallaig, Skye, Durness, Thurso, Inverness, Braemar, Edinburgh, Moffat.

I'm pretty familiar with the beaten track, but any off-beat suggestions would be well received, as would Tomtom ITN files if you have them (for example from any of your recent Scotland runs?)

We're all veterans of PH runs in our local area down south, and great driving roads are what this trip is all about. We would of course also welcome Scottish drivers to join us for any part of our tour, although please note we expect to be on the road during the week.

To save further clutter on this thread, your feedback via PM would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
