GMX…THE APPLECROSS EDITION

Date – Friday 8th September 2017 to Sunday 10th September 2017…Plus optional Sunday ride-out.

Venue – The gorgeous coastal village of Applecross

Accommodation – The campsite is the obvious choice with camping, camping huts, caravans and a B&B.
The Applecross Inn sits below the campsite and does B&B.

The Applecross Inn serves fantastic food both indoors and in the beer garden (which has the most amazing views and the most friendly midges).
There’s also a retro food van at the Applecross Inn which serves Fish & Chips plus Ice Cream and hot drinks.

The campsite has a café which serves great breakfasts.

The exact ride-out details will follow, but currently looks like this….

Friday 8th September
Arrive, check-in and meet at the Applecross Inn for drinks and food.
Saturday 9th September
Rideout around the coast (Cowards Way), to Ullapool, via Torridon, Kinlochewe and Poolewe….lunch in Ullapool (115 Miles).
Return to Applecross via Garve and over the Bealach na Ba (85 miles).
Sunday 10th September
Head for home….or if you want to do the “Applecross Add-On” stay for a Lap of Skye with lunch at Dunvegan Castle and back to Applecross for a final night (195 miles).
Monday 11th September
“Applecross Add-On” people head home (via the Glenelg ferry if interested).

If you’ve never been up here, then it’s a must.
If you have been up here, then there’s really no excuse for not coming back.
Scenery and roads are spectacular.

Please book your accommodation early (as in now) to guarantee the type you want.
It is greatly advised to come with suitable breakdown cover.

If you are coming then please add your details to this thread.
