No

Deer stalking is a pastime done by the gentry and cost alot of money.

where sheep stalking is done by every Welshman and usually involves shagging the sheep at the end.

I thought it was the welsh other national sport.

Sounds like a good trip sept is better for us than may possibly 2 bikes if dates work

I could be up for this, date depending, you've not said how many days it would involve.

Would need road tyre's my new rear knobbly was nearly bald after the ride back from the West Wales meet.

[bth2bth2]

i was thinking 5 days would be a min. 6 or 7 would be better. it may also depend from which part of the country you are traveling from. if from the sarf you may need to add an extra day.

Can we bring trailers

If I can work out what my electrics are playing at, I would be up for this and look forward to meeting and greeting some of the faceless names.

I may be interested in this depending on date but remember that their school hols are different to us, so I would try to avoid as prices will go up regarding camp sites.

Remember you don't have to use campsites in Scotland but there are guidelines:

If you travel up the west coast, there are a lot of larke "laybys" where they have straightened the road and left the old road, some of these can be 100's of metres and go quite a way for the new road so are well out of the way but easy to use on an MT.
