Dave,
bin bag and bungy cords on the back seat, with your clothes and sleeping bag, any valubles in the top box.
This was my XJ 900 on a trip round scotland in 2006.

We'll probably be early as we're taking a gentle run down leaving the 'deen at 12 noon.I reckon im happy to go on the lakes tour on the sat. But re hartsides and hawmans concerns, i reckon there will be people on that run regardless - there are quite a few of us on the G2G afterall. All i would like is for the runs to be properly organised (with which im happy to assist) before we all leave base. Cannae wait!

to be honest it has been really quiet around the lakes of late , most places are begging for business as its been a bit of a washout this year.
seasonally around sept / oct its a lot quieter than june to aug and the 2006 run in july wasnt that bad was it ??
<!--sizeo:3--><!--/sizeo-->the REASON I suggested the lakes was a few requests from last year and a few from this year, I am not trying to split any group or cause any aggro, I am more than happy to take 1 bike round or 20 bikes round, it matters naught to me. I never tire of the lakes cos i find a new road or a new sight or a sight in different light everytime i go.

I'll skip the Lakes trip thanks - I'd be happy to lead a group around the Borders, if a couple of us do that then we can meet at specific points on route for stops.
Tony's Moffat route is a goodun, I'd be happy take folks over the smaller routes, including the Bhuddah bit and all meetup at the cafe at St Mary's Lochside

<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->good idea alan to many bikes can be a hassle,talk friday night over 10 pints
September G2G 2008 - dandywarhol - 25-09-2008
Here's an alternative route to Tonys but where we can plan to meetup on route. A mixture of single track naggery bits, quick flowing bits and some crackin views if the weather's clear [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif[/img]
Around 195 miles - back in time for a shower, pint and food. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/drinks.gif[/img]
