monty halls (Applecross Area)

[Boris]

I have a run planned over there at the end of April or beginning of May when I get back from India. The plan is to spend a night at the Applecross campsite and then follow the coast to Durness for another night and back to Edinburgh on day 3

I hope all this Monty stuff doesn't make it too busy.

Haven't yet made to applecross on the bike yet , but planning to on my way to TLD start . Im going the long way to Edinburgh from London via Inverness ( Parents live in Drumnadroghit ).
Great road that i have driven a few times in cars , the most memorable being in a Rally prepared 1965 cooper 's' , competing in Historic rally (amazing)
I try to get up to the hightlands at least once a year on my @ , and i bloody love the roads . Is such a nice change as most of my riding is done in central London. The A82 from Glasgow - Loch Lomand - glencoe-Fort william-Inverness () and Loch Ness is a great ride . Although fort william to inverness along Lochness can get quite busy during season , coaches and caravans .
Most roads north of Carlise are great .

Dear Thieving Pikey Scumbags ,

I know where there is a nice AT lying in London most days / nights.

Soho and DD - you really need to be a bit more carefull about this sort of stuff on a free access forum - you never know who is looking !!!! not everyone on the planet is as nice as our members

Dear Thieving Scumbags

If you are up my way, DO NOT worry about my small dog.

He likes thieving scumbags !! ........................... For a Snack




Yip , I agree wee jack, can not be to careful, especially if you say your going away on holiday on the forum........

Is that a bull mastif? My brother has one of those. He's the biggest softest lump of a dog I've ever met He's not long out of being a puppy though. They seem to have a lot of character those dogs (his does anyway).

[largewayround]

Nope , English Mastiff (My Wifes Dog)

He is Very Carefree, but funny, he can sense thieving scumbags or intruders outside.


I watched the 3rd episode, last night , on iplayer. His girlfriend came to stay and made the cottage *liveable*

Yeah, sounds similar in nature to my brothers (I think his is a bull mastif though it looks exactly like yours so I might be mistaken). Has me in stitches sometimes watching it torment my brother then run away

I'm from the next peninsula north of Applecross - Sheildaig; Mr Halls chose a lucky time to migrate - last year April + May was 'pure' stunning, weather-wise. Was up twice in May for a cycle race over the Bealach + a local wedding, felt like the mediterranean after Edinburgh. Most of the folk back home tanned / sun-fried. Watch the forecasts and get up there if you can..
Here's the road about 10 miles north of Applecross, looking south west.
