FAO the northern boys

hey guys got our central belt meets sorted out now,

i need some feedback off you oop northers as to where you would prefer your meet to take place

c'mon guys dont be shy give me some locations now

Most people seem to be in the inverness area or aberdeen area. To be honest, if they were all to meet, it would be easier & probably quicker meeting in perth than going from say aberdeen > inverness or vice versa. Or maybe fortnight about aberdeen/inverness. Takes me about an hour to drive to aberdeen and about two and a half hours to get to inverness, about the same time it take me to get to glasgow.

TBH, I would say Elgin is probably best for us lot.

But that is a complete chew for anyone from the central belt!

fragpot · 14-02-2005, 13:33

Elgin is pretty good for northern region. I think its like an hour from Aberdeen, so that would be about 2 hours from where I am. Kincardine is an hour and a bit from Dundee, so I'd be better off going to central meets. However I might region slag and go to both cos I'm often up north working.

Scott G · 15-02-2005, 15:37

Elgin is do able.

GlasgowRob · 15-02-2005, 18:02

bugger elgin

how many miles is that from glasgow?

Scott G · 15-02-2005, 18:31

RAC says 188 miles but its just bombing up the A9.

Aberdeen - Elgin 65 of crappy A and B roads, single lane all the way.

alistairolsen · 15-02-2005, 18:40

single lane is only bettered by single track, dual carriageways are gay! lol. How longs it going to take you to get up rob?

GlasgowRob · 15-02-2005, 20:20

fancy doing it every second week with me alistar

Scott G · 15-02-2005, 20:35

Meets generally only happen once a month.

With the work I do there is no way I can commit to a bi weekly schedule, not for a meeting in a car park with 4-5 other people.

GlasgowRob · 17-02-2005, 21:42

well i aint gonna be coming to elgin once a fortnite lol

i'll do it on a 4 weekly basis for the elgin run if you and the guys up there wanna do it every second week do it but i'm gonna be doing central fortnightly just as it seems like it might take off down here for now

already got 12 names for the meeting a week on sunday

will post more details up on the knockhill meet in may up when i get it

Rob · 17-02-2005, 23:02

Once a month would be almost do-able for me. Serious work complaints if I ask for too many weekend days off.

But as I have said, I would really try to do as many as possible.

GlasgowRob · 17-02-2005, 23:09

so who would be up for elgin the first sunday in march?

Rob · 17-02-2005, 23:16

Mothers day??!!I would be slaughtered by not only work, but my mother and worse of all.... the mother-in-law!!!

Second Sunday perhaps.

paul maxwell · 17-02-2005, 23:17

i will be along once im motoring again

alistairolsen · 17-02-2005, 23:35

Im up for coming to the odd one with you to see the other, but not running my own car up there all the time, odd one, maybe. You going up fortnightly?
