Scottish Day Trip
Scottish Day Trip
Been talking with @mik about a weekend day road trip in June, are any of the other Scottish contingent up for it or anyone further afield who might be up this way?
Suggestion was....
Glenshee > Lecht > Spean Bridge > Ft William w/The Secret Road

Re: Scottish Day Trip
Count me in as a ‘maybe’ Mike. June is pretty busy and I’m only free a couple of weekends.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
Can I join you? Sounds great. Scott and I can discuss politics
Re: Scottish Day Trip
If I'd have had something decent I'd have been interested in this - been meaning to loop Scotland at some point. Alas, the Up isn't the car for it and I doubt the 4C replacement will be here by July.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
Potential mid June could work.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
oooo , assuming an open invitation, I could well fancy this if dates align.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
Definitely an open invitation @Gavin.
I'll let you know when tickets go on sale for the politics discussion - I'm thinking somewhere in Glencoe, combatants wearing kilts, a lump hammer each and they can have at it.

Re: Scottish Day Trip
I'm sans wheels so no drive but I'm definitely up for Glencoe hammer fest.
An absolute unit
Re: Scottish Day Trip
If anyone's open to that then yeah I would be up for it. No worries if not though, wouldn't want to impose.
I mostly just want in on the secret road :laugh:

Re: Scottish Day Trip
Southside of Glasgow but I don't mind travelling to somewhere more convenient if anyone's going through Glasgow on the way.

Re: Scottish Day Trip
I'll be heading through from that side and passengers are good, but I'm currently waiting to hear back from @Brian_T as he is sometimes up for a run but isn't necessarily up for a day of driving.
edit: there is the possibility of exploring the 2+2 capability of the Evora of course - if you are feeling particularly foldy.

Would love a day of driving, but in no way able at the moment. Quite busy in the first half of the month but free the weekends of the 17th/24th.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
I’m 6’4” Mik, I don’t think I’m getting in the back of an Evora without removing bones
Like I say, it would be nice to put some faces to names after all this time but if the logistics don’t work it’s no worries.

Reminds me of when we used to use the M Coupe to go places with someone in the boot hidden under the load cover.mik wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2023 1:15 pm I'll be heading through from that side and passengers are good, but I'm currently waiting to hear back from @Brian_T as he is sometimes up for a run but isn't necessarily up for a day of driving.

Re: Scottish Day Trip
Would be keen on this but Scotchland is a long auld drive from here and therefore not really possible in just a weekend.
Re: Scottish Day Trip
Lol same although I clipped a kerb with a 3rd person in and destroyed a wheel in a watch this moment. He wasn't impressed.Ascender wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2023 3:19 pmReminds me of when we used to use the M Coupe to go places with someone in the boot hidden under the load cover.mik wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2023 1:15 pm I'll be heading through from that side and passengers are good, but I'm currently waiting to hear back from @Brian_T as he is sometimes up for a run but isn't necessarily up for a day of driving.
