you are mental 
Weathers kinda nice - time to ride!
- Thread starter SteveT

mspenz - you is correct 
I did think it was your chariot that was heading the other way as I was prancing around the road leading to that place.
And people call me mad for riding there, and theirs your Boss out RUNNING on the stuff

Some great photos in a fab country, brings back memories of many a happy tour. But sad to say not since old Krankie cast her wicked spell. Any of the good old remote bars left standing or probably more to the point how many have fallen??
In search of snow . . .
Finally got to take the bike for a longer ride than just back and forth to work for the first time in weeks.
This is The Macallans new visitor centre – looks more like Tele-Tubbie land from the outside, but apparently the inside experience is something else.

Seems to match the contours of the local hills when viewed from this angle
I was determined to find some snow – guess this place will do
Absolutely mobbed – every car park was chocker
And this is the lastest distillery on Speyside – but they just knock out gin from this one, so no waiting years before you can sample the product, if that’s your tipple

A friend and I were out as well for my first proper run on the new GS. Great bike for putting miles on and surprisingly capable in the corners too!
Got the obligatory photo as we passed through Bellabeg...

Wow. Had to goggle that place. Well off my normal routes
Maybe I’ll aim for a pit stop one day.
Well, after over 400 miles since yesterday morning, I think I can safely say that the 21 year old Alp is fairly sorted. Took a 120 mile run over to the Red Squirrel camp site at Glencoe Saturday morning and met up with a fellow Alp rider.
We them covered around 150 miles of small dirty roads and some forest tracks before dinning at the Clachaig Inn.
Said our farewells early Sunday morning, the man heading home via Glencoe and me heading for home via Kinlochleven loop
, Forts Bill & Augustus and Inverness
Apparently, according to Google maps, the filming of Hagrids hut occurred reet close to the campsite . . .
Site of Hagrids Hut . . .allegedly

Bugger Hagrids Hut!! The bar in The Clachaig would be good enough for me! Developed a serious headache or two over the years in there!
The fact that you can see the pub all the way down the shitty path next to Clachaig Gully and you are gasping for drink is awful!
Great pix and a great weekend! Thanks for sharing.

I’ve a pic somewhere of the hut they used, in situ....a few of us from this very site were doing the 3 national peaks back in about 2003/4 and stayed at the Clachaig....anyway, as you were.
Transalps have always been one of those bikes I’ve always thought I should own. No frills, just ride.

From yesterdays trip to the Ardnamurchan peninsular . . .
Busy local roads . . .
. . . being blocked by some wandering locals
Once I’d set up my canvas cave, I set out on a local site seeing trip on even less travelled parts of the local area . . .
Took this one on my way home today, looking across to Fort William and Ben Nevis, after the sea har had cleared . . . almost
