W Coast Weekend 17/6/06 - There'll be camping!

[The Dogfather]

I'm thinking of putting together a run along the west coast taking in: -

Bridge of Orchy and Glencoe
Fort William and Ben Nevis
Loch Glen Garry
Eilean Donan Castle
Torridon and Applecross via Scotland highest road :eek:
Loch Maree

Starting point will be Perth, same place as the start of the Cullen Run. There will be an overnight stay in Gairloch. Booking might be tricky as places are usually jammed but to keep costs down there should be a choice of Camping, Hotels or B&Bs. The plan is to meet up down a local pub for a few beers in the evening.

After sobering up the next day the final leg of the run would be to complete the final leg of the journey back to Inverness and the return home via the A9 and A90.

Anyone interested? If there's enough interest I'll firm up some plans. BTW if like me you haven't got a MINI you'll still be welcome the idea is its more of a social event then a MINI run.
:D

Could this be this years Cullen ?;) Don't be shy!!!

I'm supposed to be working this weekend VB, so might not be able to make it... Will it be a leave Sat morning, back Sunday night thing ? ?

[The Dogfather]

Yes, although you don't have to go all the way <snigger> Lunch will be at Eilean Donan Castle and you could come back from there.

[Julz]

Contemplating just dropping by at the start, doubtful we could do the much of the run beyond lunchtime, don't think the little guy would like being in the car much longer than that (and I mean Craig, not Rob!!)

[The Dogfather]

You'd be more than welcome Julz :D make sure you bring the wee man along, haven't seen Rob in ages ;)

Craig will be a wee bit older by then as well :)<takes stating the obvious to a whole new level> so he might be OK for a gentle wee run;)

[T6 KFR]

I will ask the wife if she fancies it - would be a good wee weekend away i recon.:cool: sun cream here i come - hold on ill be in my car mostly:I

I'm going to ask a mod to lock this thread. I'm looking at different dates, routes and interest so this might get dropped in favour of another run.

Watch this space for future developments ;)

[Gismo]
