Anyone interested in having a run through the Scottish highlands and Skye before the scottish rally ? Our intention is to head out on wednesday the 8th of august from the service area at Stirling on tha M9 around noon / 1pm . We would be heading up through Glencoe for a stopover on wednesday night then more tourist stuff and another stopover on thursday . Friday would be a run back south to the rally site at Crail . Chief Thundercloud is going to post some pics of a proposed stopover site. Please give me an idea of the number of people coming , thanks .

Spoke to Iain this morning Fer me and my old man will hook up with lads at glencoe and take it from there,got my flip flops and ambre solare looked out.

Heres a few pics of the Wednesday night stop over at Glenuig,there are a few chalets (double bed+single approx?65)a bunk house with two rooms each with two bunks(?10 per bunk) or just camp in the grounds,just a thought depending how many there are we could all kip in a chalet,nice and cosy .More details below









couple of views of the pub and surounding area also a romantic sunset if your to that,thanks jacko for the pics

That looks superb Iain warm digs and a nice pub close buy heaven,did you take those pic's from the clubs jet ranger.

STOP PRESS!! My mistake about the prices sorry guys it's more expensive for the chalets, it's 65 quid per room. Expensive but they are very big and well equiped. The bunkhouse is the best option coz it's much cheaper.

From the website
"Rooms are offered on a whole room basis.
Brand New en suite rooms - ?65 per room
In addition, we have a bunkhouse, sleeping 8 people in 2 rooms. The bunkhouse has been recently refurbished and, for those on a budget, is the ideal solution. The rooms share a bathroom with a shower and are only ?10 per person per night. Alternatively we can offer a whole room for ?30 per night, this sleeps a maximum of 4 people.
Bunk Room with shared bathroom - ?30 per room"

Was thinking the same myself, he is either very tall, good at climbing or has a helicopter. Would love to come along but no hols left to take but definately going to crail

A helicopter would have been nice Davy but it's a tad out of my budget so I had to climb up instead. Not too exhausting even for a lazy git like me but the view was well worth it. In the distance are the Islands of Eigg and Rhum with the Cuillin Hills of Sky behind them. If it ever stops raining and the sun comes out on the 8th of August it'll be a fair treat for everybody who goes on that run.

Fer - Is that J9 services ? how many miles / hours is Glenuig from the services. Are the tickets for the rally from Ian as usual?

Hi Ian / Fer

Please put me down for the whole shindig bunk house sounds good i will be topping up my tan as i get back from marbella on the sat but o what a shame my good lady has to go back to work tee hee . So its a big yes from me cant wait to cross the border and have a jolly with you guys. Do we pay on arrival or do you want some wonger in advance i know how fer likes to take cash.

the best driving road in the uk is the Fort William to mallaig road the A830

Just had a word with Pete who runs the Glenuig Inn. He is getting very busy and has had a lot of bookings. I was able to get one side of the bunkhouse for the 8th, so that's four beds. I booked one chalet, I know it's expensive but they have a super king sized bed and a single bed and you'd get a forth person on the floor if they bring an airbed so the cost could be spread out. There is also space near the pub to put up tents. I need to know how many people want the accomodation option so I can work out if we need the chalet (it would work out at 16.50 per person for four people) Pete is keeping it for me until this weekend when I have to confirm if we want it. Also please take note his breakfast's are 7 quid, not cheap so you may want to make your own arrangements.

Hi Jacko

Please put my name on a bed in the chalet or the bunkhouse cant wait whatever the cost lol. Might even have a big brekky

Jacko, just pm'd FER, if you are taking the numbers pls put me down for a bed/bunk on the Thursday night, can't make Weds, will aim to meet up with you on Thurday am in Glencoe. Cheers

Thanks Hobbo and Mysticzed, I've put you on the list. I'm seeing Ferry this weekend and hope to find how many others are turning up for the run. Lets hope it's stopped raining by then!
