who's up for a meet within the west end of scotland? not a nice drive in the country type meet, just a park up in a car-park meet (with a McD's or KFC in sight) just so we can .... ehh! meet each other and know who we are talking to on the forum and maybe even have a look over each other's car's over a cuppa coffee? ive met a few folk but no-where near the amount that use this site (from the west) if anyone's interested please post here and we'll see what we can arrange i'm free, most night's and sunday afternoon's |

yip Loch Lomond shore's has plenty of room, and if folk want a wee trip we could meet there and then take a trip along loch Lomond and cut of and go (slightly) cross country over the "old hall road" which was purpose build for army lorry's carry'n war head's trident/faslane & coulport (abit like a roller coaster road for car's) there's a good big car park half way across it with amazing veiw's of the clyde valley then from there we could go in to helensburgh which is full of quality chip shop's and chinese places and more than enough car park's as there is a monthly meet already planned for Troon 6th may then maybe this could be a sort of in between monthly meet? maybe set this up for either sunday 13th or 20th May?

can we pencil something in for May 13th? if this is OK with folk i'll type out a meet point and a wee tour .... taking in some of Loch Lomond and maybe Luss (stop of for a cuppa T?) then across the military road in to Helensburgh? nothing to "out the way" just a 15-20 mile drive with decent photo taking areas and like ive said above i think stopping in Helensburgh for a good chat a nosey and if folk want there's place's for eat's then back across to the origonal meet point where folk can find there way back home from? like i said not a lot of mile's will be covered between leaving and returning to the meet point but good veiw's and good road's and good company to be had and i'm sure it'll be a long enough time for folk travelling from other area's .. not to mention all the chit-chat that might come about
PS, if folk want we could also head in to Arrochar and travel back to Helensburgh along Loch Long .... not a great road though for low car's.. Edited by 523 iAN |

SHORTY: if all's well with other's you might beable to use this date & route
OK folk's how's this look? Sunday May 13th meet point: Balloch Loch Lomond Shore's (outlet's car park) Time: 1pm have a meet N greet and then leave for 1.30-1.45 travel 10 mile's to Luss (large car park with a T-room/carry out) where folk can have a cuppa and a natter. leave Luss and double back toward's Balloch for 2 mile's then take the millitary road which lead's to Faslane/Garelochead (8 miles) stop of at a car park with a veiw (i know which one) camera's at hand (or travel a further 2 mile's to a picnic spot with a veiw at the top end of Garelochead, whistlefeild) then from here head in to Helensburgh (6 miles, passing the peace camper's) for food, ice cream, refreshment? have a natter (a walk along the peir ) and a look round folk's car's then from Helensburgh go back across to the meet point/Balloch (8 mile's)
maybe not thee best but all in about a 30 mile round trip (excluding your get there/get home mile's) on good smooth road's .. which will have the odd visitor from other countries and the odd police car .. with a couple of stop off's (if wanted?) for pic's, food and banter (if needed balloch, luss and helensburgh all have fuel station's) if this is a go'er and it work's well and if folk want maybe we could do a longer run in the summer, maybe a trip to invarary or Oban? please add your thought's to this wee outing so we can get it posted in the event's area, thank's
this pic was taken at the "car park with a veiw" ... a while back, when my E39 had it's 4X4 look! Edited by 523 iAN |
