There's still a chance I'm in if the slot is still free - seeing a bike tomorrow lunchtime - fingers crossed

Foccers day out

I'd be up for that anytime.......only place for a good ride out is the West Coast. I've been up there a few times recently, Loch Lomond, Crianlarich, Tynedrum, Glencoe, Kinlochleven loop, Oban, Lochgilphead, Inveraray and back down Loch Lomond side.....about 300 cracking miles.

A great way to test our newly McIvanised bikes.

Bbb, another one for you to try if you ain't done it yet :

Loch lomond - crianlarich - callendar - dukes pass - aberfoyle - drymen - loch lomond. Only about 100 miles for that loop, but à lovely ride

onejay · « **Reply #130 on:** 17 September 2014, 12:59:57 pm »

Dalveen pass is also a good one

bigbluebear · « **Reply #131 on:** 17 September 2014, 01:18:11 pm »

We really do have some of the best biking roads in the world....right on our doorstep.....I can be in Glencoe in 1.5 hrs from my front door....hoping that will be a lot less once ivanised

Guys. I will see you either tomorrow or Saturday. Any problems give me a call.

Managed to sort a Fazer - picking up a 2003 silver Fazer 1000 with only 13K miles tonight

Can I grab a slot for the full Monty please. Friday afternoon or Sunday would be ideal if at all possible but will fit in with whatever since I'm late to the party!

Thanks,

Kenny

Hi Kenny

yes we can fit you in
i am waiting to hear from Mike

Falcon 269 · « **Reply #135 on:** 18 September 2014, 05:39:48 pm »

Thanks onejay.

I've been in contact with Kenny direct and we may have a cunning plan in the offing.

I'll keep you both posted by e-mail.

Funny how that worked out, eh?

Looks like a close call as to whether you'll need a visa and 200 fags to bribe the boarder guards Mike ..........

haha! good stuff

Falcon 269 · « **Reply #141 on:** 18 September 2014, 10:35:45 pm »

The question is, do I need to bribe the border guys to get in or out again ... ?

onejay · « **Reply #142 on:** 18 September 2014, 10:55:14 pm »

Mike
you will get in
i don't know about getting back out
maybe if you bring the bhp gods with you
you might be lucky

onejay · « **Reply #143 on:** 19 September 2014, 05:49:52 pm »
