Dag nabbit Nutty! Why is it that I'm always away when a rideout is organised. I just got new tyres too and would've looked forward to this.

Ah well, i will come along to one at some point in time.

hope to see you at a rideout one day splund

Are you guys serious about Skye AND Back in one day ?

I'd like to come along and meet some of the folks on the forum.

You planning a really early start I presume....

I'll order up some new wrists/forearms for Sunday 18 th........

Stev

yeah still considering it. should be fun

just received this pm from justmac. what do you lot think?

can anyone get an overnight pass lol

Hi Hazel, Are the posse still up for a trip to Skye?and if they are would anybody be interested in an overnighter? Checked the SYA site and they have places at both Kyleakin [at the bridge] and Armadale [Ferry] although to be honest I would prefer
Kyleakin myself

Sound out any of the others that are going and see how the land lies as I think it could be a much easier trip with a few giggles if we stopped at the YH and went for a meal and a couple of beers,then rode back on the Sunday

I might be able to manage an overnight stay..... will have to do a lot of grovelling and begging though

aye, I could stay overnight, nae problem, need to ask the fridge or poss the cooker (shirley valentine style)

yep, defo for me, thats the benefit of being single, nae brownie points to earn

[carelesschucca]

Oh now your asking for trouble... This could cause war... having said that I could use the hey doll we'll be together for the next 1300 weekends if we get this mortgage and the house, cause we'll be skint and won't be able to go anywhere...

I don't know if I'll be available or ready for a long run on the new bike, but it strikes me that if this was a single-day trip you'd all really be chasing the miles.
There would need to be far fewer stops than usual "Ecosse" rides & if anyone was a bit slower they wouldn't get the normal length break.

My mate Derek with the VFR went out with two guys he barely knew (VFR & Mille)
& they went as far as Skye. Big tank ranges on these bikes & very little stopping.
The trip from the east side was nearly 500 mls.

Either a two-dayer or reduce the route.
Or am I being too negative.
