I'm thinking if this is a successful as I think it will be polling dates for another in October!
My only problem is I'll need 4 tyres not risking o8's when all the leaves are falling and greasy rds

Got to say the roads through the leadhills and wanlockhead are very good drivers roads and sure with the start point being abington services you guys will be going though them

Thanks Rick, so many good rds in this area. I could put together 3-4 runs without to much thought or difficulty. Details kept qt

are not much of a issue as long as we are sensible.
My problem is where i stay and making a start/finish easy for everyone else

I know it's difficult times, but I remember when we had 3 groups of 5-6 cars on the road. Those were really fun times and after a few runs groups were filled with drivers of the same/ similar experience.

These runs are social events to meet new members catch up with old friends and have a bit of safe fun, all are welcome from far and wide

Perhaps, if I do I don't want to take the car as I'd like to take pictures on route

Anyone want to take a detour round my way and then head out by Penicuik, West Linton and then onto our starting point

You can leave your car here if you want and come with me, thats if no one else from that way is going.
