I dread to think, and this is why it a dream. But you never know Dreams can be made to come true one day. Yeh I've seen Dual, good film, but my vision is more of an Easy rider. Sleep under the stars and go with the flo. Not exactly reality but a nice vision. It's funny as all we have to go by is the films we influenced by.
I wouldn't want to run into Clyde doing a right turn though.

Animal, your going to be a very lucky chap indeed:
road out to Mallaig is awesome, even better after they re did it a few years ago.
in fact all the roads around you are stunning. your just going to have to stock up on the Avon "Skin so soft".
and keep your eyes peeled for the tourists and red deer.
Hope you have a garden big enough for tents......

You've just got to live your dreams. Pointless sitting around thinking about them, that's what I think anyway.
Been going to Fort William for quite a few years now and know the surrounding area quite well.
I'll have everything I enjoy right on my door step. Mountain biking, good selection of not very busy ribbons of tarmac and plenty of walking to name a few.
We wont have a very big garden but we will have a couple of spare rooms in the 5 bed house.
Cant wait, should be getting our completion date soon.

Things never quite go to plan. Had the house we wanted pulled from under us in Fort William. We are now in temporary accommodation in Fort William waiting for our house to go through in Spean Bridge (10mile North of FW). Not quite as big as we wanted but it'll do just fine.
Who on the forum is near me?

I was, until you moved far, far away.
was it the aftershave?
I can stop drinking it any time I want....
Honest, I'll start stopping next week.
Or the week after, although that's getting near Christmas, maybe the new year, then. Another pint of Channel for me, Barman.....

Darwen to Rivvy Barn, via Tockholes and Belmont
Long time ago, be back soon. Or the A52 through Ashbourne where it then becomes the A523.

sorry Animal, im on the other side, but have been known to just nip out for a bag of chips in FW or Oban during the summer. breakfast at the little chef at the bottom of the gondola used to be good too.

Had to think long and hard about this one, but the B258 from Monschau, through Schlieden and Blankenhiem on to the Nurburgring has to be mine.
I've ridden other roads that are probably better, but this one I have a soft spot for.
