The "Cotwolds" is an area north of the M4, West of the M40, East of the M5 and south of a line from Evesham to Banbury. - Well that's a rough guide.

Righto, Ok for me to get there about 130-150 miles away I reckon. Seems a fair old trek for the folks from the far north. Probably about 5-6 hours from Glasgow at least, with breaks for bladders and bums.

Just for interests sake where was the 2003 ride out held?

If from the south you head north and like me in the north of Scotland you head south, then somewhere like either the north of the Lake District or Northumberland, would be in the middle and that way we all have a chance to get there.

What do you think guys.

I reckon Scotland should be looked at seriously.

If it is as well supported as last year it could be a proper good weekend.

Not sure of dates though, sometime when the kids and caravans are in one place :P

scottish school holidays start 1st july so any time before then in june should be ok.

west coast of scotland up to loch ness but agreed it would be a long run for those down south but worth it.

even if its not the annual run if anyone fancies coming up i'll get the guys together and show you some of our fantastic roads. weather not guaranteed but midges are

Ouch I hate those nasty scottish midges. The last time I fed them it took 6 months for the holes in my legs to heal
