Gary Taylor Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 So thought I had better move over here as now the cars on the road our adventures aren’t really for tech talk So day two and another lovely day out, left Home in blustery weather overcast and some looming clouds some sunny spells went out over the lecht to corgarf where the braemar road was shut so did a loop around strathdon down to braemar and on to glenshee then backtracked Home , had a great day and avoided the rain ( always a bonus) Bring on the holibobs next week 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David-hrv Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I could have joined you today Gary, if I had known. It was a wee bit windy though! My son, James, has just started work at Orton, near Fochabers, so he's driving those roads every day now, just like me. Great, isn't it? See you on Geoffrey's trip next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Cutler (Adge) - Dorset AO Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Car looking great. Enjoy your holiday tour. Currently in "the borders" after visiting Outer Hebrides via Skye. Sure you're used to it, but keep your eyes peeled for potholes, some of the roads (irrespective of type) we've been on have been rough as b-----y! I'm amazed only the badge has dropped off the grill on our motorhome! Some great Westfield roads though, look forward to updates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David-hrv Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Good luck on the trip everyone. I'm planning to join you on Tuesday, and looking at Geoffreys route map, I could meet you at the Commando memorial at Spean Bridge if you let me know a rough time. I'll leave you at Gairloch at the end of the day, and then I'll join you again the following Tuesday for part of your run down through the Cairngorms to Killin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
