Running it in - 250 miles today

Ok here is what I have done of this list and will research some other lists that I can find.
Some of the ones I have said no to look a bit odd on the map :nenau
So I have an excuse to go do a recce on some of them to see how real they are.:tarka
But whatever there does look like a nice scatter and some good roads across the country to make a good weekend of it.
Journey begins with the first step and all that and getting a definitive list and then step 2 look to link them up, then 3 find a weekend and let the good times roll.:bounce1

Feck spent ages sort this out and looks like a dogs dinner :confused:
 
I think you had better possibly re-think the corrieyairick and the loch Builg road. Both are private,the corrieyairick has had a load of trouble over vehicle access.Also i don;t think it would be possible on a Gs.

But its up to you.

Aye been scoring them off and now doing a comparison with the list on Wiki, which looks more sensible in terms of actual roads.
So still at step 1. Onwards and upwards.
 
Good stuff,plenty other great roads anyway. Are you still liking the new bike?

Indeedy.
In fact I will be out in the next hour or so for a good run.:bounce1
Touch wood I have had no complaints other than it gets seriously mucky on a wet day.
It seems to do all things well for me.
