so we now have:

Tummel:
1 definite but will do either.

Borders:
2 maybes.
1 will if passes MOT
1 would but working and broken bike
1 maybe hung over meet up.

warning:
if we do the borders i WILL get us lost (i'm very very good at that) which is more fun

as with all runs, make sure your bike is in good working order and you have a full tank of petrol before we set off. have enough money for more petrol and food/drinks etc.etc.

there will be a good few stops for chat and rests. the borders run will have 2 fuel stops 1 at Gretna 95 odd miles and 1 at Berwick-upon-tweed 177(82) odd miles. the Tummel run will have 1 fuel stop at Pitlochry roughly 115 miles.

and remember its a bimble not a race. if anyone feels that the pace is to slow then they are more than welcome to go and play then pull in and wait for the rest of the group to catch up.

seems like the weather is going to be much like 2day and yesterday. so it's on. but i might cut the route down and instead of going over to Berwick we could head up the back road to the glen cafe at st marys.

i'll pop a route up later. i was out for an hour or so last night and it was fine.

ok here is the revised route:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&so...99,7.13562&z=8

there will still be a stop at Gretna for fuel but the other stop will be at Peebles or S,Queens.
