    Hi all,

    Following my trip up to Scotland, there has been some interest in the GPOC having a run up sometime in 2015.

    No idea on numbers or dates but it would be good if we could tie it in with a NMS run.

    I personally wouldn't have the time to organise the GPOC end of things so, as mentioned on the GPOC, if one of our Scottish members has the time it'd be great.

    All this post if for is to gauge potential interest in such a run....it'd be good to get the clubs together on a run rather than just meeting at a show.

    Cairngorms have to be a must though

    Weekend of fun and MINIs sounds good and something to discuss over the next couple of weeks ..
    I'm sure "we" can sort this as a joint club run - think it would have to be later in the year as NMS Heartbeat Tour is on mind ..
    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Was going to say early Spring but just seen the dates of the Heartbeat trip.....

    How about reasonably soon before that or not too long after that?......at least the Scottish lot wouldn't have too far to travel :-)

    Of course :-)

    The whole idea is to see if we can organise a GPOC trip to tie up with a NMS run.

    I'm up for this (date dependent), and happy to recce the NE roads that Brian enjoyed :-)


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
