The plan is to meet up as usual North of Penrith at 08:45 prompt on Saturday morning. Away 9.00am from the only services on the A74(North bound) north of Carlisle. If you get as far as the M74 at Gretna you've gone too far (ring me if you want suggestions for Friday night digs on 0114 249442). From the meeting point we'll take an interesting route up through the Scottish Borders before Crossing the Clyde around dinner time. Then it's over some stunning passes to our first Hotel overlooking the shores of Loch Fyne. After a good meal and a wee drink we'll rise the next morning to head up the West Coast via a spectacular route to Applecross. Here we will spend the next two nights giving us the opportunity to explore the North of Scotland, a trip to Skye, Cape Wrath, or Loch Ness are all within day-trip distance. Tuesday it's more gorgeous scenery as we take a different route south from Applecross eventually getting back to the Clyde before making a dash for home around mid day. This is a truly spectacular trip well worth the effort. It's always over booked and can only take a limited number due to the accommodation used. If you've done it before you know to be quick. If you’ve not done it before you should make an effort to be quicker still and secure your place on this fantastic tour. Most of the roads we use North of Glasgow are grin factor 9+.
