We leave for home on sat 16th stopping around jedburgh. Leaving there sun morning the17th arriving home around 6ish.Our base for the week is near Eileen Donan Castle on the a87 near Skye. Forgive me if the spelling is wrong but this is my friends note to me. Regards Joe
Looks pretty good going... Really want to do that Eileen Donan castle myself.. Won't be this year now but possibly next...
Duckadiledundee. Welcome to join us for the ride. You would need some accommodation as the place we are staying at will be full. Regards Joe.
i'd asked you about your trip Joe, has your mate got any daily routes organized or will you just decide on the day whereabouts you are heading? i might manage to meet you for a days ride,i won't need to find accommodation as where i live it's easy to get to most places in Scotland for a days ride
Dougie D No plans yet just want to see as much as I can. Perhaps you could point us in the right direction. My mate has been there and loves it to pieces. I just want to visit the birth place of the Mc Donald clan. I did find the original mail about 1:30 this morning. Kind Regards Joe.
You really can't go wrong up the west of Scotland Joe, all the A roads are great,if you look at the Thread for the Scottish forum road trip you will see routes of the roads we were on
Dougie D Yes I will love it. Nearly Scottish myself if it were not for a little bit of water between us. We are doing Glencoe and the castle and the locks. And other than that just hopping from place to place. It will be great. And we may get to meet. I will give you my phone number before I come and then we can get in touch. Regards Joe.
Hi Joe, If you haven't been before you are in for a real treat, I live up in Inverness and have rode most of the routes in Scotland and there are some really nice routes a lot of them single track. Enjoy, Willie.
Sounds like you are well into the planning Joe. The planning is good fun and that leads onto the enjoyment of the trip..
Yes peeps really looking forward to it. My pal is doing most of the planning and yes he said mostly country roads and single track. No I have never been there yet and will love every bit. I won't be or am not up to a Sandi T Type write up but I will send some bits back for the peeps. Regards Joe.
No need for a big write up, Joe. We'll just appreciate any news and pics from your trip that you care to share. Have loads of fun! What a great adventure.
Hi Joe, You say you want to visit the birth place of the Mc Donald’s. Is this what your looking for,,,,,the birth place of all McDonalds in Scotland
Sandi T. Will certainly try. Probably be after I get home as I don't have a laptop or anything like that. Regards Joe.
Great, Joe. We'll just be happy to see you photos and hear about your adventures--it doesn't need to be in "real time". Spend that real time enjoying your travels!
