Rode to Douglas park Motorrad today from Falkirk for the drive shaft recall on my GS. Horrible weather, didn't see any other biker funnily enough. It wasn't all bad though because my bike got a brand new drive shaft fitted for free.

I think that's the way I'll be going. Sadly no garage for my steed though.

Somewhere between Perth and Dunfermline. Pretty much had the road to ourselves.

thank you, not seen another blue one yet.

It wasn't too bad apart from in the hills where it dropped to 2C. Just tried to go as easy as possible, the GS took it all in it's stride. Was the Mrs first time out on this bike. Only complaint was that it doesn't have a heated seat like the tiger 800 I had before .

A very dull triangle but the wind had dried everything so a quiet and pleasant pootle whilst SWMBO was tending to her Dobbins…

Happy New Year all.

is there no ice or snow on the roads? asking because next trip from west of ireland to inverness in march. last year took the plane because yellow weather warning here and later on snow cover from Edinburgh to Inverness. the previous year it was dry in Alba but frosty at night. Met only 4 bikes between Stranraer and Aviemore.

drimcong,

Slush in the middle of the road and each side of the carriageway. Most gone today but lower temps on the way along with a smattering more snow . . . apparently.

a wee bit nippy was it?

 

[SteveT]

Minus 5 but pheasants need feeding especially in weather like this

Beaky bike goes beak spotting . . . only to find the beak owners hiding theirs

in Oban, any recommendations for a cheap-ish night's rest in March? Premier Inn seems to be pricey. thanx a mil guys

 

[gerarddwatts]

When in March? Easter is at the end of March this year. As far as I can see the Premier Inn rooms are 38 if you book/pay now, 49 with a bit of flexibility.....to be honest I doubt you'll get much lower than that....
You might attract a bit more better advice in the main section of the Scottish department, rather than here.
What about the YHA?

 

[drimcong]

thanx a mil for heads up, googling PI didn't come up @ above £, other places OK coming over 18-22,
