spoke to the campsite guy and he is expecting a group of bikers and about 5 or 6 tents.

when you get there tell him you are with Alastair McQueen and that should line up with his booking system

Fabiostar,
rather than take the boring A75 with all the HGVs, try this route. its part of what we will ride on Saturday, but it is so good it is worth doing every day

if we are all up for it I have a 200 mile route, but it is a figure of 8, so I can cut it short if time or weather gets in the way

this is what the full Saturday loop would like.

its 240 miles, but its all good [this might be the biggest understatement ever :D ] biking roads and some brilliant scenery. I will decide on the day which direction to do it in, but as you can see we can make a decision at the central cross over point if we want to cut it short

Tires have been kicked, chain and oil checked and everything is tip top and ready to go. :D

One more sleep and I'll be on my way! :Dancing2:
