A day up north

[blackpoolsparks]

Here's a few picks of a few Surfs, a Cruiser and a Rangie out and about mid Scotland yesterday.

I drove the 3.5 hours home like a madmman, full tank of deisel used up in about 180 miles and it never missed a beat. That's after a 12 hour drive to and around Scotland. Hardly saw less than 90 mph on the way home and funny enough near the end, the performance actually improved. Air temperature I think ? Had to slow myself down as I bottled it after 101

Great to see you mucker.

We clocked 140 miles on the wee run round the Glens. Must have been 80mile of that on B roads or single track.

Pictures are great mate, plenty of the arse end of Alans truck, I see you were to busy to edit.

Great pics, see you again at the Clog soon.

Plenty time mate, so far 4 Drumclog weekends booked and two more long road trips in the planning stages.

Plus I am taking a trundle back to Wales first weekend in June if you fancy.
Sparks is meeting me on route, Andy, Graham and a few others meeting us further south.

Yea, sorry it's a one day affair. Bit too cold for a camp weekend at the moment. It's on Sunday the 20th.
I'm making my way down the day before to do something at Brians. In any case there would be no point you following me as you're in a V8 Surf and I'm in a 1.3 Jimny, you'd be pulling your hair out following me.
I know it's a long day if you include the drive there and back, but I've done it several times as it's definitely worth it and especially in a Surf as it's easy on the motorway. Try it in a screaming 1.3.
Hope you can make it.

i am going to have to say no unfortunately as it would be about 4.5 hrs either way if was staying there then OK, i will wait till its camping season and make a weekend of it hopefully that will be soon!

The weekend at the end of May has been beautiful sunshine the last 3yrs.

The far travelled an some locals stay the Friday night and almost everyone stays the Sat night. You can also stay the Sunday and run home Monday if you like. Camping is free.
