OK guys. I have booked and paid a deposit for 8 places in the Aviemore Bunkhouse for the nights of 15 & 16 September in..er...Aviemore, and so far 6 places have been taken up. Plan is to meet up on the Friday, do some drinking and eating and a lot of taking the piss rotflmmfao.gif Saturday will be taken up with a rideout where we can go north, south, east or west - the roads are all magic and generally light on traffic and police. Saturday night will be a repeat of Friday night. Sunday will find people heading away but another rideout could be incorporated into this no doubt. The bunkhouse is next door to a pub that does good beer and food (that's a bit pricey though). I tend to frequent the Cairngorm Hotel on the main street where the beer and grub is a lot cheaper and the staff are magic. smile.gif smile.gif It's only a five minute walk away as well.

So at the moment I have two places free for anyone interested so first come first served just send me a tenner deposit to secure. banana.gif banana.gif

Yes if the two places I have spare at the moment are still spare then. If the places have gone you still might be able to book places yourself if the bunkhouse has spare capacity.

Jimmy, you've skipped to the end of the thread without reading the middle!!

The meet's in Aviemore , just a WEE bit further than Largs. I reckon on at least 2 hours to get there and that would be cracking on a bit.

I can't make it , I'm back shift (as I was for RTT06) and no chance of time off.

I was planning to head up in the afternoon and take in a few good roads along the way - trying to co-ordinate with Emmett and AE. I could get away for about 2.30pm, not sure if Alan has to work that afternoon (?) It's a holiday weekend hereabouts though, lots of peeps will be heading off. The long range forecast suggests weather will be v good in mid Sept, so fingers crossed. unsure.gif
