Re: Scotland West Coast 15-20ish May

After getting the GSA serviced and fettled to the point of needing a proving test I set off from sunny Lincolnshire destination Scotland. I decided to call in on a friend at Carlisle so I opted to blast up the A1 up to the Bedale junction then use the Leyburn/Hawes/Aysgarth road. http://img17.images...
