Grape run

Post by SILVER ZIPPER »

It seem's our Scottish member Zero has caught himself a cold or summat so i suggest we go and take him a grape or two to make him feel better.
Bearing in mind i will be going on a bike, how many grapes do you need for a bunch :?:
I'm sure other's could take him something an asprin, paracetemal, some slick's for his chair :biggrin
The bridge of Cally hotel has an offer of three night's for the price of two, so we could also have a long weekend having a look around the U S of A's favourite place. :roll:
Saturday 3/10/09 ok
I just hope their some room's at the hotel camping in October ain't to my liking.

Yep I am up for this, will make sure that I can fit a couple of lemsips in the tank bag and get my pass stamped.

Will let you know later Zip when I've had a word with Helen.

You can count me in too, oh wait, don't I live there?

Definite or not, you are all welcome anytime. If its a good weekend the road to Braemar is an excellent run.

Blimey, just realised that I'll have to scratch the Charlie Dimock look for that weekend, and ditch the jogging bottoms to the spare room. I draw the line at wearing heels though.

Probably can’t do an overnighter but definitely on for a run up on the Saturday
Should see the last of the tread gone from the back tyre.

Edit: ouch :eek2 just run it up on the route planner 5 1/2 hour run
Sorry but I think I’ll have to bow out other commitment dictates just a one day run

Having seen who is down for this run Norma the eye candy is in short supply, except for me of course.

My plan.
Ride up Sat,
Knockhill Sun,or rideout.
Mon rideout.
Return Tuesday.
Thier seem's to be plenty of place's in Blairgowrie to stay, i shall be booking somewhere for me and big spoon. I'll look for somewhere with plenty of room's and hopefully we can get together so no one has far to go when pissed.
I'm sure thier's something else,oh well i'll remmember when i get up there.

Yep but just fitted a new one so it should be ok.

I can only do the Sat, Sun anyone else in that situation?
