Right. I’ve decided.

NC500 early July.
Probably 8 days.
B&B’s.

Anyone else up for it?

Bolox to you if not, I’m going anyway 😝😝😝πŸ€ͺπŸ€ͺ

Good on You.
I would dearly love to do it on a bike.
Doubt if i could do it in June/July. Highly probable we will be in the MoHo somewhere in Europe then.
Have you researched when the midgies are at their peak?
A truly special run and one that just has to be done on a bike.
As you know, cause i've bleated on about it enough times, i did it in the Porsche Convertible, the lid down most of the time, simply spectacular.

I've done most of it but I really want to do the Ullapool to Durness bit...... Had to drive to Ullapool 3 times in 4 weeks once, to fit a kitchen.... It had been designed wrong and it took 3 attempts for the "Designer' to get it right. It's a fair distance from Yeovil, one trip was 16 hours of driving with heavy snow once we hit Inverness. Beautiful area.

I have no idea where I'll be or what I'll be doing by then.

I've put it on the calendar though. You never know and I'd hate to be double booked :)

I was so lucky when I did John O’Groats - glorious sunshine. Fingers crossed for a repeat 🀞

All change!

Son in law told me today that I need to take my daughter away. Suggested the NC500!

So it looks like we are going 16 - 25 July πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ˜

Make sure you have mozzy nets and spray. And the talk is its going to be mega busy. Wouldn't have thought much of an issue on a bike, but a lot of idiot RV and Tuggers will be out and about (no not me)

Oooh! Well done. I'm sure you'll have a brilliant time.

I hope there will be lots of pictures :)
