Default Re: Gm10

Kinlochleven has served it's purpose.
The turnout in 2016 was low with only the usual suspects there.
For 2017 there's no point trying to pander to the Golden Era of early GM's where we had a fair few folk come from South of the border so had to keep it accessible.
It's a single weekend, so make it somewhere that the ride there & back is as cool as the actual ride-out.

GM10 - Applecross
There's camping, wigwams, caravans and B&B at the pub.
Breakfast in the campsite cafe and dinner in the pub.
Friday - Folk Arrive.
Saturday - Rideout up the coast to Ullapool via Poolewe and back via Garve and A832.
Sunday - Folk head home or a "Lap of Skye" for the Add-On Day.
Monday - "Add-On"ers head home.

This was drunkenly discussed in The Raven.

I'm happy to put up a dates poll and organise if Applecross is the venue.

Let the discussion continue......
