No, thats my job - I'm getting 120 out of my pointy when I cane it, and over 160 in normal riding (had 200 once, the last time I went to Scotland, but I arrived in Berwick on fumes)

further north on a sunday could be problematic for petrol as lots of places in the sticks are shut on sundays.

Default SV Ecosse Glencoe Massacre chat thread

This is the place for general chat about the Glencoe Massacre, taking place on the weekend of the 16th of August. I've hoovered out the main thread and moved most of the chat in here, it might be a wee bit disjoined for any posts older than 9th July.

Hi,
I've just noticed this yesterday, a weekend rideout in August? Sounds great.
At the moment I'd love to join and the only thing I can think of that would stop me is an earthquake or judgment day (but we all know these things can happen).
I'd be camping and from what I've read here you don't need to book your place and just turn up.
But I'm sure that finding some space for one Pole on the camping field won't be difficult

Hope to see you all.
