The dates and routes are set Simon and folk have started to book accommodation, I would recommend strongly, if you want to come, that you do this sooner rather than later.

Steve, I trust that it would not be rude to join the party for the Saturday morning. I believe that I can get the Friday off work to drive up, but would need to drive back to the south coast on the Sunday. My intention would leave you all after Saturday lunch so that I can enjoy the Dukes pass and get back to Dumbarton or Milngavie for Saturday evening ready for the Sunday drive home.

Please do. I could suggest a decent one day route for you. I'll pm you one tomorrow

apologies for being thick ..

Re: Premier Inn Dumbarton -- am I right in thinking that this is Milngavie as per last year?

Either will do....

I think Milngavie is where the troops are going. Its easier for driving up from down south, but 35mins from start point rather than 5mins. Glasgow is better served for eating out etc.

Meeting point will be

Duck Bay
Hotel & Restaurant
Loch Lomond
G83 8QZ


9:30am is plenty of time.

Aviemore (Roo's Leap for lunch) and head up via Glencoe, I may throw Inverarray into day 1's mix too. I have given googlemaps links, but I do these just off my head as all the roads here are familiar to me.

Bummer, most of this route should be familiar to you?

Any chance of making the Lunch on Saturday or Sunday, Aviemore both will be lunch stops.
