Weather forecast sucks, but it will change for the better.
If not, then don't panic, it's on to plan B.

Hmm, initial enquiries remain inconclusive, i'll do some further investigation! I'm definitely not a @€¥# though if that helps.

Weather forecast does look a bit questionable but looks to be more hopeful up there than in the central belt. Keep the faith in plan A!

One of my favourite roads. Here's hoping the weather is lovely and you don't get stuck behind any camper vans/jcb diggers/etc

I'm 40, so I'm more of a Vanilla Ice man......... Alright stop, colllaborate a listen, Ice is back with my brand new invention.

Anyway, Plan B is that there is no plan. At least not until we realise that Plan A is gonna be a weekend of soggy scrotums.


Plan A..... August's Applecross Assault.
Meeting at 12:30 on Friday at Esso petrol station on Dumbarton Road (next to Little Chef).
That's the important bit.
From there it'll be Tarbet, Crianlarich, Tyndrum and Fort William.
We'll stop at Morrisons in Fort William for fuel, scooby snack and a pee-pee (you've to try, even if you don't need).
Then we'll push on to Applecross.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=...t=m&mra=ls&z=8

The ride on saturday can be discussed in the pub on Friday.
The return trip on Sunday will be the reverse of Friday, with the option for a surprise little detour courtesy of Dean if the weather is OK.

If you're coming, please PM me your mobile number if I don't already have it.

That's it guys.

See you on Friday.

Fred x

Thanks, Dean - takes me straight past our house!
Good thing is Humber Bridge is free for bikes.
Thought plan A = Applecross
plan B = Bettyhill, near Tongue
f knows what plan C might be!
