Default Anybody thinking of coming up North (real north)

I was wondering if some of you have plans for coming up this way, Inverness---Caithness in the near future???

I'd quite like to do that sort of trip if the weather was nice, maybe go for a couple of days - open roads, mountain views and, best of all, no cars? Or am I dreaming?

I might be doing a run up to Arisaig at some point... Though I'm antisocial when I'm touring

Might be shooting up to Invergordon to have a look at the old place then back down to the Elgin/Dallas/Forres area to say hi in person to some very very well aged relatives this year.

Then over to Fort William for a day or two before heading back south.

(If work lets me have any time off)

I'm putting the new panels on next week, hopefully, so my bike will be completely sans scratches, dents and cracks... I'm considering funding the whole respray by starting a book on how long that'll last
