Default Re: Glencoe Massacre 2016 Poll

ok here is a mad idea. there has been no bids for 2016AR so how about we combine both with a GM/AR 'the border raid edition'. and have both at Bellingham?

the facility's are superb and more than enough accommodation in the town.

its technically ex Scottish territory

no i'm not organising it but since we have been there before it should be no problem. i will however do the route and the reccie along with willing volunteers.

BIG bonus is there is very little midges.

Not such a bad idea. I enjoyed the AR there, and it's reachable from my part of the world

I'd love to get up there, can you please avoid the major matches at Lord's so I can make it this year?

Lol, you are kidding right?

It's not a bad idea, if you can get the bunkhouse available, and it's not some sort of events weekend in the village.

I did like them ribs, best grub I've had on a rideout!

It'll be nice to be able to go to a GM and not have to think about things. I'm looking forward to it this year instead of worrying about everything...

It would be nice to get there on a bike this year too. However, it might not be the bike expected!
And yes Bib, no chance of eating outside up the Macdonald!

There is, you just have to get there in the next 2 months before the midges come out.
