Well, as i said in my pam post, i had an interesting run.

I'm on the pistonheads forum due to my photography work with cars,

and they had a Scottish meet up at Oban on Saturday.

Groups left from aberdeen, Edinburgh, inverness and Glasgow.

Mine was the Glasgow group and being the only biker for the whole turnout it was quite fun.

I spent most of the run up, playing with a Lambo countach, and ended up overtaking him and getting to the meeting point early as i needed too pee.

On the way up we got pulled by Mr plod cause they wanted a "nosey" at the countach.

It was quite interesting to play with cars, ranging from Seat Cupra, 4l V6 Mr2 (engine replacements) Tvr's and the Lambo.

here are some pictures.

This sums up the Glasgow group's run.

Fab cars, some lovely shots.

Me and Jillyburd went up to the Drover's on the Friday (planning to head for Oban too) but the weather was so bad we stayed at the Drover's. Was half expecting to see us coming the other way on that Loch Lomond road video, by god we were soaked on the Friday. Did about two miles of filtering through water, lovely.
