Posted

ok as its almost here i thought id put all the important stuff into a nice shiny new thread so everyone can see it!

the exact details including a map of the route will be available to all on the day but thisl give you a guide.

also still room for any last minute stragglers to join up :lol:

CAN ANYONE WHO IS DEFINITELY GOING ,AND HASNT ALREADY, EMAIL ME THEIR NAME,A CONTACT NUMBER, AND THEIR CAR DETAILS AT dave222@tiscali.co.uk

this is so we can identify everyone,check no ones missing before we leave and check on anyone who goes missing en route

DAY 1

190 miles, approx 5 hours driving

formation at the vue cinema,inverness from 10 am saturday 1st may for departure 10.45, 11 at the latest.

there will be 2 groups, a progressive and a family friendly group both departing at the same time. when you arrive if you wish to be in the progressive group park in the vicinity of my car (blue blob eye sti,L22 DRS) where il try not to hold you up too much.....

if your unsure which group you want to run in i would suggest the family one as the pace will still be spirited and you can change to the progressive at the lunch break if you wish

lunch break will be approx 12.30 for an hour, ive been emailed a copy of the bar menu which il paste below and if people can let me know what they fancy itl save a bit of time and save on 'sorry were out of that' syndrome

we should arrive at ullapool approximately 6pm, dinner is booked for 7pm at the royal hotel Ullapool where most of us are staying

the rest of the night shall pass in a blur of food,beer and banter

DAY 2

135 miles, approx 3 hrs 15 mins driving

departing ullapool royal hotel approx 11-11.30am to allow room for the night before to pass....

lunch break approx 1pm

return to inverness around 2.30-3pm to vue car park again for a bit of farewell banter

FUEL

the shell garage at the raigmore interchange is the last v power stop and with the number of cars going expect saturday morning to be busy!!!

i have confirmed with the filling station in ullapool that they have 98 ron fuel and they know we're coming in force so to have stocks in, if you want to take a jerrycan,fuel bowser or octane booster order now!
