Cool or what? Anyone that was on the Easter Egg Run or that's viewed the photie thread will remember the monkey bikes. Well Quedos and I bumped into the guys at................. wait for it...............................

...............The Green Welly!

Yes - they were on the monkeys, and NO they hadn't transported them up there. The lads had been out and about since early bells and had covered over 200 miles when we met them. They had come from Oban and we had just arrived in Tyndrum at the back of 4. The boys headed in for an ice cream whilst we popped down to the Real Food Cafe for some chips

. I managed to snap a little vid on the ol' mobile as they headed South, so I'll post that later. We next encountered them as we passed a layby somewhere along Loch Lomond.

Cheers,

Garry

Reminds me of these guys i know who once rode the entire west highland way on raleigh choppers. Well, I say "rode", carried mainly... The next year they launched an attempt to spacehopper it but got too many punctures.
