mealexme Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 bollox. I keep forgetting! I have ridden past a few pub names a couple of times lol Quote
TC Posted April 8, 2012 Author Posted April 8, 2012 You've been busy Roy First one to get Tower Bridge as well. What was it like for parking Quote
TC Posted April 8, 2012 Author Posted April 8, 2012 Expecting a few tags of the crazy fox to appear soon Quote
Stu Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 I might get the three I got put on tomorrow they need to be resized first Quote
yorbandit Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 well i was gonna do brands on monday but i think due to the all day wet stuff i gonna watch on tele Quote
Tango Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Well....I can't have a week off and not get any tags.......so 150mile round trip to get Snetterton.....took the scenic route..... Was gonna head down to London for Tower Bridge, Ace Cafe and Brands Hatch......but once I started riding decided it was a silly idea.....save those for a weekend I think.... The London ones (at least Tower Bridge) will be a pain when the Diamond Jubilee and Olympics are on as there's gonna be serious restrictions to traffic all around that area....so just bear that in mind when you are planning your trip to get that tag.....

Mk5Centurion Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I was up in a (very wet) Argyll and Bute on Good Friday, stopped at the jail in Inveraray for a picture - i thought i had my number in my jacket pocket but no luck I really need the number in the picture don't i?Not that i have any aversion to going back that way mind......

whitedevil Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Id have got some dirty oil off my chain and wrote the number on the side of my bike if i hadnt got my number or anywhere to get pen an paper. Quote
Tango Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Can't see the number in your John O'Groats pic Roy.....you'll have to go back and do it again...... Quote

Throttled Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Bike ready, kit ready, so tomorrow Ullapool, Monday John O'Groats, Tuesday Culloden and Wednesday some pubs on the way home. This trip will involve camping rather than B&Bs. The forecast is not great The pubs are proving to be quite a challenge. The Kings Head involved going abroad and I can only find one Rose & Crown in Scotland, in Edinburgh in a pedestrianised road Quote
Throttled Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 A nail through the back tyre at Fort Augustus. No dealers open today or tomorrow with the bank holiday so the whole trip has been written off. I am back home absolutely gutted. Where do these nails come from? That is two punctures in the space of 3 months. Quote
Susieque Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Aaww that's a real shame Hope you manage to do the trip another time! Quote
