That's a good idea Jason, the Northwest Posse did this on the Feb invasion of wales - I'll PM you mine if you don't mind compiling a list, then pm everyone - I don't always have access to email or internet so I would be unsuitable to do this

For those who fancy a different way up , to the route we are taking back down !! I was thinking ............

A rendevous at the Erskine Bridge ( West of Glasgow) then - Loch Lomond - Glen Coe - Fort William - The Great Glen - Inverness - then take the Thurso road to JOG. A different route to the "charity" route and some nice roads.

We could arrange a meet at Erskine bridge mid / late morning on Friday that would get us in the Fort William area for lunch and probably in JOG area for say 7:00pm ish .

Any takers ????

I've just emailed everyone the Partcicpants Pack paperwork - which contains everyones mobile numbers so that each and every one of us can contact each other if needs be (barring any restraining orders from the Orange Jihad ).

Please respect this information as some might not like their contact details bandied around un-necessarily

I think I'm going to be taking this route on Friday...300 miles is plenty after 400 the day before and with 900 the day after!

Great Maurice , If I get the 08:30 ferry I could meet you in Adrossan - alternatively if I get the 09:30 you could meet me in Largs ????

Blue Skies is coming off the Irish boat at Troon at 09:00, we could all arrange a meet "somewhere" on the coast before heading for the Erskine Bridge for about 10:30. And see if anyone else is joining us there.??

I shall be leaving High Peak 0500 Wednesday and riding up in one go. Route will be M60, M61, M6, A74, M74, M73, A80, M80, M9, A9 and A99. I have done the Ft William route many times but not the route via Blair Atholl (A9). I don't expect anyone will be traveling on Wednesday, but if you are, PM me before 2200 Tuesday. All, have a good journey up to JOG.
