the squiggle Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 Anyone from Glasgow fancy a run up at the end of the month?.
ally-b Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I was talking to Gmac earlier and he could be interested . I'm going to try to get Sunday 30th off work . . . so I'll keep you posted [] It would be good to attend the SIDC National day , we could even meet up with other areas on-route , we'll be passing Stirling , Dundee etc on the way after-all. Al.
oz *sti* Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 As long as my mapping session with Andy F goes o.k. on the 27th of this month I'll be up for that.
the squiggle Posted July 8, 2006 Author Posted July 8, 2006 Just a gental convoy up to Blairgowrie and then past Braemar towards Alford.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 I cannot be there but it's good day oot. Take your car on the mini track and get someone to video you hooning round. The track as decent grip and even a wee grandstand Cal

micra_wrc Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 yeah, but the we've factored in breakfast stop and toilet breaks! its a mega early start for a Sunday morning []

st3ph3n Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Autoroute 2006 is configured quite nicely to my tastes (speeds) and it says 2:27 from Bothwell to Alford. TomTom says 3:31 using the same route. It lies though.
G.Mac Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I will eb there if I canny get my bike on the road for the friday as im supposed to be going to Skye with the GPz owners club Graeme

dark Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 If anyone is travelling up to Alford from the Edinburgh / Livingston area please can you contact me to organise the return of a crash helmet to JohnS. He'll be wanting it for the track sessions ! I'm in Kirkliston so could easily meet anyone who's on route. Thanks, Mark
