Tossers Bonanza.......
I never saw any camera vans near Tomintoul but I did see 2 out between Ballater and Aboyne on the A93...
Great Weekend and Ullappol is probably the best venue in the UK for a meet. Many thanks to the organisrs for sortinmg out the accomodation, many thanks to Whatton for Friday nights entertainment and the loan of your jump leads on Saturday (picked up a set from Halfords in Inverness on the way home)... Most thanks of all was the highways department of Ullapool for the superb roads through some of the UK's finest scenery - trully magnificent and proof that God really was a biker
I didn't have such a big ride out on Saturday as I didn't set off until around 2pm so planned a wee trip to the Summer Isles and Lochinver to fuel up. Having borrowed Whattons jump leads and Dens bike I got the HP2 fired into life (Note to ones self - fit the Oddessey battery that you bought about 6 months ago as its no good in the garage
).
Anyway first stop was to see what was on this sign on my way to Reiff. The scenery is stunning around here and due to the gentle breeze (ice cold wind in reality) there were a noticable lack of midges
I saw this post box which was litterally in the middle of no where and at the same time spied a very inviting beach. A quick ride round took me closer to the beach which looked very inviting but the roads won at the end of the day so it was continue on to the Summer Isles, you can see some of them in the photo but in the flesh they are breathtaking. I also saw a folley at the top of the hill and as there was nobody about decided to take the bike up there for a closer look. Nothing much to be honest except an even nicer view from the topm. I was no down to 26mile of fuel left and took the chance of fuel at Lochinver where I filled up and saw Klankys group donning their gear for the ride back to ullapool so enjoyed the road home at great speed.
Fantastic weekend - Thanks to everyone for making it such a success
...very nearly spoilt by the THREE camera vans just after Tomintoul

... Brilliant, what a great weekend lovely to meet you all
... Made it home last night having taken the longest and windingest route home, 720miles in the day.
... Especial thanks to Oonyack, RobMack & Flash for the matinee performance of the Friday cabaret (sponsored by Jaegermeister)
... Honorable mentions: -
- Beetle & Garfield, for permitting yourselves to be brutally violated for the entertainment of all
- Floyd, for sharing the Chivas
- Vango tents, for surviving the weather, a steady stream of kidney filtered Jaegermeister and 85kgs of plummeting RobMack
- The chippy!
- Brewers everywhere
- The residents of Ullapool
- All the tossers who attended
... Super-Special hats-off for: -
- Millions of years of geology for providing such a spectacular backdrop for the gathering
- And an anonymous drunken Scots roadbuilder for fashioning some of the best riding roads on the planet to compliment the amazing location.

Was good fun. My arshe is sore from the ride back down home though.
Think Popeye is lying low - we were accosted by some Iranians near Glasgow who sat on the bikes and had thier photos taken before asking if he was my dad
He was that shocked he rode off and left me to play kiss chase with the m/c copper on the M74 on me own.
