Bikers Weekend Rideout/Meet

There was talk of a ride up to Scotland, meeting up with Hotel21 who will show us the lovely roads of the Highlands :y

Anyone up for this?

I was going to post this up, but got side tracked  :-[

I am up for this, some stunning roads around his way  :) - I am also keen to get  H21's input on my riding. (for those that don't know H21 is police trained)

For me, i would have to stop at least once on the run up, maybe twice. Doing run to Isle of Man in June on the bike, so see how that goes!

Notice quite a few members here have bikes, maybe meet up along the way?  :-/

You will need to stop a couple of times Tunnie to refuel  :y
Don't fancy keep stopping off for a night here and there though if thats what you mean. I would prefer to get up Scotland and pitch tents up their. ;)

Your Fizzie will never keep up with yer Dad's steed, and you'll be knackered with all the pedalling. ;D

don't think i can do Brackley to Fife in single day, not on the bike, not yet anyway! I'd half to stop halfway for the night, i'd personally be tempted to stop in Yorkshire Dales someware, then carry on up to Fife

Had to google DLK's bike:

The Yamaha FS1-E (originally FS1) was the definitive UK 1970s sports moped. The un-restricted form of this machine was capable of up to 50 mph (80 km/h)

Engine: Two Stroke single cylinder [size=16]4.8 bhp[/size] (3.6 kW) rotary disc valve induction, 4 gears

 ;D ;D ;D

There's a boy who doesn't understand that the fizzy was the moped to have in the 1970s.  And worth a friggin fortune now
