just to remind you that I am going but will be staying with old school mate in rothiemurchus.

A couple more will hopefully join us all in saturday rideoot, one Varadeo and one Fazer 600.

Hope this is OK- we are all 60 plus so you will need to bear with us.

I was thinking about the Saturday rideout when I was on Skye at the weekend. We could make it Skye if the weather is fair at the time in the west. Alternatively, I've got an idea that I'll flesh-out when I get back from France in a couple of weeks that involves lovely quiet roads and beautiful country and is a bit further east than Skye. Anyone else got any preferences...apart from cake eating.gif

Hopefully, my TDM should be fully operational by then, so me and the missus might pop down the road for a nosey.


Did I mention 135mph?

And that's official

wifgeni.gif The Applecross ride, then riding back alongside Loch Ness was a stunning ride for the few of us that stayed over the extra night last year.

Are we having T shirts again this year? Last years were good quality, and if I remember rightly £11
Ivan organised them last year, but as he isn't coming I am happy to sort it out.
I suggest the same design as last year ( I'm sure that if you look at last years pictures you will see big Dave wearing one) but obviously saying 2010
in blue rather than red. Being a 900 rider I was thinking of pink, but not to everyones taste.
Please PM me your size, and if there is enough interest, I will sort it.
