Myself, Tenere Mart and another guy are doing Glencoe, Skye and Applecross again this June. Camping.
We did it last year and i did a full ride report with lots of photos, but for some reason it seems its been removed. So i cant post a link to it.

If anyone wants to come, we will meet you at Southwaite Services off the M6 at 10am on Friday 14th June. The services are between junc 41 and 42. Postcode is CA4 0NT.

We will ride up to Kingshouse for our first camp. Then ride to Applecross for second camp, then third camp will be on Skye.

On route we will be riding thro Glencoe, riding part of the 'Rest and be Thankful', and Pass of the Cattle.
All the camps are wild camps exept for Kinghouse (which isnt really wild camping).

The trip last year was such an amazing experience, we just have to do it again!

Everyone welcome to come. Just turn up at Southwaite services, and were off. We will wait till 10.30am, then we are gone. If you really are coming with us, pm me, and i'll send you our mobile numbers.

Heres a few pics from last year.

Nice one Jim. Weve all got it booked off work, so its defo on.
Not really sure if much will happen on this thread, apart from anyone else wanting to come.
Were not going to go mad on this trip, nice and easy, plenty of photo stops etc.

Sounds great, I'll check with the misses but I don't see any reason why I shouldn't make it, I've got no other trips booked yet ;)

Ok, checked with Tres and i got a green light. Sad when a grown man has to ask to go out to play.

Want to ride up together Pete?
