Hiya Debs, the dates are a definite huni, so book away. Alright folks I've got the three campsites, phone numbers, post codes etc just need to get prices in the morning and I'll get it all on the events pages. Then it's all systems go for booking pitches etc. Sorry it's taken a wee while to gather all of it together.
Spoke to Jim tonight and he is busy get routes sorted out, these will be posted soon. Would folk like to meet up at the beginning of Loch Lomond for the ride up to Fort William? - we can arrange a meeting place for that nearer the time if so.
Once everything is on in the morning, if you need any other information just let jim or myself know - all the best Katie xxxx
Hi Peeps I was up in Bonny Scotland yesterday and had a fabulous drive down from Edinburgh to Newcastle along the A68 then A696. I was wondering if there might be a way to fit this in either on the way up or way back , any way just a thought

Once details have been sorted submit it to the calendar and I'll add it for you Katie.
