Fly fishing? Motorcycle? Got to be South Uist. I can find the accommodation.......
How did you get on KR? I'm having a few hours on the Itchen on Saturday as it looks good weather.
Some great pictures here.
So....I have had a crap year in 2016 starting with an off leading to a fractured clavicle and busted bike. Then lots more serious health issues later in the year which I'm just recovering from now. One of the things that has helped has been my discovery of fly fishing which I am very much a newbie at, but enjoying greatly.
I'm in the SW, not too far from the big reservoirs of Chew/Blagdon or a bit further to Farmoor, and the rivers of the Wye/Usk, Avon, Kennet etc are in easy reach.
Also have family in North Wales so the Dee wouldn't be impossible by any stretch.
I'd be happy to meet up with others, though I might be traveling on four wheels for a short while yet.....
Just as an aside, the guys at Barbless Flies (good outfit to deal with) have started a house mag, one of the features is about combining fishing and bikes....#2wheels1rod or something similar.

....after many years of thinking I should try Fly Fishing I've given it a try.
I have this romantic vision that a GS and a Fly Rod could give me a reason for a ride and take me to some great places
Well I now have that Rod and I've had a few lessons and the local lake with some access to a little chalk stream is just 5 minutes away so I'm currently skilling and kitting up.
With Dent next weekend I had a quick browse as to what's avalibe up there, expecting big bucks I was surprised how accessible fishing in some of those great rivers I've ridden by many times is.
We could have a Dent fishing expedition.
