    In a nod to the movies we've had our very own "Lockdown Job" so now it's time for a Cannonball Run style Coast-to-Coast Adventure!

    Starting at Stirling Services, we'll set out across the narrow waist of Scotland. With the Firth of Forth in our rear view mirror, we'll head down through the Carron Valley and on towards Loch Lomond as we make our way from "sea to shining seeaaaa-eeaaaaaaaa-eeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa".

    Our lunch stop for the day will be in the coastal town of Helensburgh where there's plenty of great fish and chip shops to choose from (as well as a few other options for those who might fancy something different).

    After lunch it's "eastbound and down" before cutting north to enjoy the scenic Duke's Pass and some surrounding roads before finishing with a warm drink and some delicious cake.

    Start Point: 10am for a 10:30 start at Stirling Services, FK7 8ET

    Lunch Stop: Helensburgh

    End Time & Location: Between 3-4pm at The Woodhouse, Kippen Station, FK8 3JA

    Given the Cannonball theme, do the two birds in the Lambo turn up as well?
