A few of us are driveing over to Ireland for the Ulster GP in Aug.

We will be starting our journed at diferent locations myself from Dufftown and my m8's from Aberdeen. We all meet up at Perth and then off down to Troon for the ferry. This will be on the Wed of the 15th Aug and i was wondering if any of you were out there traveling on the same day and we could all meet up and travel together.

Also I was wondering if any of you on this forum live in the Aberdeenshire area and :D Moray

High mate I'm in Dumfries, this years plans are a bit up in the air cos me missus needs an op and we don't know when it'll be. Am thinking of heading to Ireland sometime later this year, just don't know when yet. I'm up for weeekend rideouts though and will be at the Kelso rally, bit stuck until May though due to work commitments.

Alexsm, Cheers for the Info I will run this by my friends and look to see how far it is from the Course etc.

We are going over on the 15th Aug Troon to Larne and back on the 19th

I got to be honest I do prefer slumming it in my little tent, Its all part of the fun, but I do have to go to a camp site to get washed ect these days ….Lol

I need to find a self inflating Double air bed which obviously works on built in battery power before my trip in June.

Depart Wallsend 19:30 on the 5th June, arriving 22:30 on the 6th June. Time to get pished!!

The return leg we depart Bergen at 09:00 on the 14th June, arrive Wallsend 10:30 on the 15th June. Time to stay pished still!!

The rally is on the island of Sandoy (pop: 475) and the rally is called Forskjellige Motorsykkeltreff.

Hey Iain


Can't wait for the weekend at the GP.


Still no reply from our man in Ireland, but I'm chasing him now.


Did you see the NW200 highlights on TV this weekend? It was another great weekend for the weather. Just like last year. I've got it recorded if you want it anyway.

We are heading off sometime on the 15th Aug to Troon. I will probably meet my slow m8 in Perth and we will be going at slow Kens pace to Troon.

My other slow m8 has a stupid Course to go on which he cannot change... so he will also be doing the same route on Friday.. actually a little faster as slow Ken is already in Ireland by then...

The Plan is to return on the 19th....

I do not understand what you are meaning " how Come you are not touring" and we will be arriving on the Wednesday....

:lol: :roll:

You know that there is no such thing as slow mates..... Apart from Ken LOL


I'll be there on friday night Pal, so you better have all the best drinking holes lined up by the time I get there.


I'm only going to get saturdays racing at the Ulster GP, but I'm looking forward to the whole days riding we'll have to get home on Sunday together.


Hope the weather is better than it was last year coming back from the NW200.....


Hear from you soon Dude

I have sent an email off to the ferry company asking if I can change both myself and Slow Ken to the Friday crossing…

I think B & B will be the best option… I will give alexsm recommendation a try probably today will be a good Idea… as we both know leaving it a bit late and even if Slow Ken and I are still over on the Wed we can Tent it till Friday and check in so we can get a proper bed for the next 2 nights !!!!


Keep Ps weather has turned here now hopefully it will be better next week for the BSB in the square at Glasgow on the 27th and Knockhill for the weekend also. Sorry you cannot come… lol my son Jamie is also riding his bike up so if Slow Ken was coming he should keep up with the 50cc Scooter….LOL

OK Dude


Keep me posted.


Did you get my ferry details. I've had no email back from you, it seems that gmail is down now I have a good internet connection..... :evil:


Should we start a fresh topic on here just for our ulster details etc. I'll send Ken a link so he can join in...? But then, maybe not as he won't like being called slow Ken....LOL

Slow Ken will be calling me tonight I think he does not want to change anything..... So I am ok with that it would be good if we all traveled together...But that was down to you at the end of the day...


I have stuck some flyer's about the town so hopefully more from up north will see it and maybe some from the forum could join us certainly hold your hand as you will be all alone... Fact the time you arrive Slow Ken and I will probably be pickled...lol

Pickled??


I reckon you boys will be completely monged by the time I get there. Friday night and all.....


I'll be needing several beers when I get there, so you better have sorted out where the good black stuff is and where we can look at the pritty wildlife out at night......... :wink:


Of course, you'll probably need a hand to carry Ken by the time I get there to, so don't be breaking him too bad now.


Shake it easy
