or M74 to Abington, Biggar, Carnwath, a sneaky route and then as above.

if you have Tyre installed i can give you the sneaky route.

both routes cut out all the heavy traffic.

Geo, I have a Gelert 2 man tent although for the sake of economy Mick and I both piled into his 3 man Gelert tent which had a big enough porch for all our kit and takes half the time to put up. Oxford Sports Lifetime tankbag and panniers to carry everything. Set of nested Coleman s/s billycans and my trusty old Coleman Peak white fuel stove.
