sweet :)

If any Foccers want to meet me on the way back (towards Crianlarich and down the A82), or in glasgow somewhere. post up :)
There's quite a few foccers in the central belt area. Hopefully a few can sign and pass shirt around and eventually back down south

Met up with mickvp today in Aberfeldy and handed the shirt over.
Red98 was in the vicinty and popped along for a cuppa so we had a good mini meet.
Then an excellent ride home via Braemar and Tomintoul.

Mick, good to meet you as well (and Red again). I did better than you guys with the weather. Couple of small showers but really windy all the way. Glad I took the scenic route  :)

Still with me. If we don't get no local takers in the next 2-3 days I'll even post it to someone as a last resort?

Good to read the updates guys... Surely someone between Glasgow and Wigan to partake??
 
Red, You're home early...thought you were away till Friday? I have camped on the site at Keswick and I know how close to the water
it is! :eek  Hope you enjoyed your trip anyway?

Ah, Paul, you should have gone to the campsite I suggested - up above the town by Brockle Beck. A bit windy sometimes, but no risk of flooding! And great views of Derwent fells, Skiddaw and Blencathra. Never mind, maybe another time. :)
