Applecross 2017 the tartan weekend

Recommended Posts

I think I checked a couple of years back and there is roughly no more than 40 miles between fuel stops on the way. Applecross has 24 hr fuel at the unmanned pumps in the village (card payment obviously). Lochcarron has (I assume still) 2 petrol stations - one at the garage/shop, although it's not open on Sunday and another smaller unmanned one, if I remember correctly.

                    6.30 Meal booked for the Applecross inn a few beers then back up to the campsite for story time with Bob .

Sunday      10.00 time to go home, we say our goodbyes for another year.

A couple of things to remember this year, a lot of the route we will do this year is part of the NC500 therefore it may have a few speed traps and unmarked cars so keep an eye on the speed especially round the Green Welly area . there are pleanty fuel stops on all the routes that we go so no need to run out of Fuel . I will have a decent tool kit in the van and fuel just in case . there may be a wee problem with the Barbie , so we might have to think on our feet but we are good at that I will keep you posted in the next couple of weeks . I should have the stickers by next week so lets get the spanners out and make sure your cars in tip top nick.
