Great pics , must have passed each other I was up that way on the sunday, that Ducatti Diavel is the scariest looking bike...

NP, I'm still waiting on word back from the pub about a room they don't seem to answer their phone or emails

Hoping to ride down on the saturday Bex, let me know if that suits, if not go to pub website and you can get directions from there

I can have it to myself for 50 quid just trying to get costs down

Miners Standard has one room with 4 single beds, anyone want to share?

Weather not looking good for this weekend, make sure you bring thermals as well as waterproofs

Well im seriously thinking of going nextweek, so ive got a rough plan on where im going the satnav will do the rest. I start at Bridgwater, then get to Applecross inbetween ill probably have to spend the night in a B&B/Hotel as its about 650-700 miles. But my adventure (is that the right word for this) doesnt end there. Ill headup to Joan o Groats which is about 250-300 miles. Then at last i head home back to bridgwater which is a nice 800-850 miles. Its probably gonna take 4-5 days maybe longer, depending on how early i get up and how many breaks i have. My questions:

1. How much roughy will this cost in fuel i think it will be about £300?

2. A little worried about leaving my bike outside when im asleep in a Hotel/BB, is there anything i can do, or any advice?

how did the trip go ?

did anyone notice who parked in the disabled bay ?.............

Green Wellie and back yesterday then fell asleep on the couch watching the footie..................

Bloody tight Scots LOL
