How about it Dave,, make a weekend of it fella.....
September G2G 2008 - Matlock - 29-12-2012
It was a great weekend. Joe (Nanook) used to organise it, but I guess he's too busy enjoying retirement - lucky bassad! If one of our Scottish brethren were to organise one in 2013, I'd try & fit it in. The bunkhouse in Aviemore was well situated for rides out and next door to a decent boozer <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/drinks.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':drinks:' /> .

September G2G 2008 - peterkelly - 29-12-2012
Bellingham accommodation had some attractions...

Aviemore in 2010 and 2011 were attended by a select
![[Image: 011.jpg]](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj47/peterkelly/2010%20aviemore/011.jpg)
and then even more select crowd, but the weather was not brilliant.

There seemed top be a feeling that it was a long way to go for fantastic roads and accommodation, but unluckily, some, wind and rain.
Happy to head North again if people are interested, but generally must avoid 15 sept for domestic ( and therefore safety - my own) reasons

Plenty of room to camp and lots of 'companionship'.
September G2G 2008 - wicklamulla - 30-12-2012
that shud be 'campanionship' seeing as it's a 900 in the shot....

We still make a point of getting to Bellingham every year.
Last year, it was Waspy & myself, and we took Boy up there for his first big trip on his CBF 125. - it was interesting getting up there without using any motorways.
And the pub is under new management - the restaurant is much better & they've moved it downstairs - so it's easier for all you old gits <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Both Bellingham and Aviemore were memorable. 'Doing' the passes from Bellingham with Hartside Man and the ride up from Glasgow to Aviemore following Big Dave on a wonderful road with 3rd/4th gear bends for about 30 miles both stick with me. Anyone remember which road the bends were on? Also the trip from Aviemore to Edinburgh on the way home cross country with my Manager and I following Dandy with Andy and Tam on tiny roads. Great times.

I thought your experience of camping in a river at Aviemore had put you off Dave <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
