SW:UK Scottish Meet

[nellydragracer]

Hey you scots should organise a weekend thing when it's a bit warmer, I would definitely be up for the drive. Others might be keen if it's a couple of days and no rush too. I was thinking the other day maybe a weekend/ drive/ cruise meet in the lake district would be awesome, apparently the 'best drives' around that area too and is sorta mid way for all.

Feel sorry for you fulla's up there with no meets ahah

+1 on a cruise/weekend of some kind. It's true there are some awesome roads in the Lakes, although there's just as many in Scotland. In 2009, me an my mate did Lands end to John 'o' Groats over two weeks (with Glastonbury festival in the middle) an stayed off the motorways as much as possible an didn't plan a route, best two weeks ever.

Sounds gooood. I went to the lakes last summer and the roads are amazing, uneven surfaces in some places but generally just wicked driving and scenery. + lakes + cool little accomodations and pubs.

It'd be nice to see all these cars being driven rather than sitting in a carpark for a few hours. Good chance for a video to be done.

I'd like to do a summer beach thing too this year again if anyone will actually turn up this time

I like how the more this is discussed the further away from where i live its getting :-(

Although, i thought this is a scottish meet...defeats the purpose of it being called scottish if ee would be having it in the lake district haha

Go for gold on the scottish area thing, I'm just saying on another occasion that would be a cool idea

Want it done for April as the forum I'm on are having a rolling road near the end of the month.

Went for a wee trip to check out the roads and car park at the transport museum tonight cos i was in the west end anyways.
Half the car park is gravel and bumpy as fuck and the other half is smooth tarmac. Also no speedbumps and the roads around it are alright.

Thanks Jimmy! Saves me a trip. I'll ask for the smooth section then

Still waiting to hear from them.
