[Rusty]

Hey Mr Wolf ... great thread ... so glad everything went well for you, well ,most of it   ;D
I knew the scenery would be stunning ..and those dogs !!! Lovely  ;D
Got back from France last night, so give me a day or two and I shall get everything sorted, photo wise and put it all on here.
Well done you on achieving a good Tour de Scotland.

[Lonewolf]

Thanks, looking forward now to reading all about your travels.  ;D

Excellent write up buddy.
Tis about time I did Scotland, only ever been up as far as the borders in my quarter of a million (nearly) miles on the road.
Looks great!
Did you have it mapped out on the GPS?

[Lonewolf]

Yes it was all mapped out with Mapsource on the Zumo 550 and then I just improvised in a couple of places when I wanted to deviate from the planned route.

Just read your story of your Scottish trip,I really enjoyed it and the photo's. Shame about the 1st B&B though. I live in the central belt just outside Edinburgh and went up north this summer (April, been pouring most of the time since) we went to Applecross and the scenery up there was staggering, Lochcarron was just great and then that famous road. Maybe we could organise it next summer and get a whole group of GTR's up there. Thanks for posting the pics.

All the best, Donald

Glad you liked the write up. I'm back up in September going to Skye for a week.

Just read through it all again .. those " Highland " photos are just magnificent ! I look at them and think I'd love to 1. Ride them on the Gtr.  2. Ride them on a mountain bike. 3. Run them by myself. 4. Run them with my dog ..... Is that a bit weird ? Do I need help or does anyone else out there get the urge ? ...I just the outside and doing sporty stuff and to combine it with scenery like that would be great  ;D ;D Anyone done The Fort William Marathon ?

Why would anyone want to run when God invented the combustion engine ::)
