Annual GTR Meet up May 2020.

[Lonewolf]

I'm in Blairgowrie about 100 miles north of you.

Probably a little too far then, Steve.

Probably a little too far then, Steve.

You're probably right. However there are no guarantees that even that will come off.

Looks like Scotland is going to be populated with GTR,s and the occasional GS in September !
I am going with some old work chums to support the guys from my team who are doing The Celtman Ironman Triathlon ... they need "supporting" for the weekend ... so it is a busy schedule .. all camping ...  from London to Morecombe Bay to Aviemore to Ulllapool to Thurso to Nairn to Fort Augustus to Glencoe down to Bedal then home to Sussex ..not huge mileage as it works out at about 200 miles a day as we have a couple of nearly "stop" days when supporting but it about 1700 miles mid Sept so hopefully the weather will be kind to us ....
Needless to say I shall enchant you all with a thread of photos fun and madness !

Mick thanks for the reply and the PM. Yes the next two weeks are make or break! I'll post any further updates as and when I can and drop everyone a PM also.

Alas Steve National Express at this moment in time are insisting all group holidays have to be taken I'm in a group that has two weeks off in May so unless another drive will swop I have too have these holidays even if the lockdown is ongoing meaning 2 weeks in the house 
I am the same as others no deposit paid so I will leave a while to see the outcome.

Tony thanks for the update and the PM. We could never have imagined in a million years anything like this would have happened. It's not over until the fat lady sings.....but I think I've just heard her warming up in her dressing room!

Yeah it just came to me and I thought, I can use that.

I was really looking forward to this. And what a debut for the new bike 👌.
As you say The fat lady is breaking glass at the moment

Yes I got one as well. You still have to manually confirm that you wish to cancel and you have until 23:59 hrs on the 18th to do so. I'm not rushing into cancelling at this stage, wait and see what happens during the next 10 days first.

Guys, I'm sorry this has fallen apart on you.

Originally I did not sign up for it as it clashed with the two weeks I had put aside for a run around France - and that ain't happening either.

Depending on what the eventual outcome is I may be back in the game if there's room for me but just at the moment it is impossible to plan for anthing with certainty.

I'm currently on Furlogh leave from work and although I don't know how long for, the period will probably encompass three weeks that I had booked as holiday anyway which I think I can carry forward.

So difficult to make any decisions about anything.

Pete.

Hi Pete.
I'm in the same boat furloughed from Sunday 3 weeks followed by a weeks holiday 🤬
So as you say its hard to plan forward 👍

[O.C.]

Obviously we had to cancel our May holiday,  the events surrounding the  NW200 are also cancelled as is the Kawasaki Triples Club Rally

So depending on the revised date for the meeting I could be up for it myself,

If you'll have  me        

[Lonewolf]

What I am planning to do is cancel if need be my May booking for Scotland at the very last minute to avoid any fees and then re-book the same holiday again for June with the option to cancel penalty free if the restrictions still aren't lifted. I'm going to do this on a rolling month by month basis until the restrictions get lifted to avoid disappointment if they suddenly have a flurry of bookings.




Roger, of course if you were available you would be very welcome. It would be good to have the BMW hater along too on his imaginary new K1600  and maybe even Charlie could force himself to come and revisit Scotland as he seemed to enjoy it last time he went.
