Sunday May 6th Scottish ABR Meet - Aberfeldy & Forest Drive
Re: Sunday May 6th Scottish ABR Meet - Aberfeldy & Forest Drive
Ye I made back through the showers, the forest drive was a bit damp and muddy, good to meet you all and put faces to names. Hope we can do it again but can we sort the weather next time.

Hii
Just in the door , freezin' , dripping wet .. Had some more snow and hail towards Perth and the rain was bouncin' between dundee and Forfar.
Steve went off towards Glen Shee , I chickened out and took the fast road home.
Thanks for everyone who turned up , sorry about the weather . At least it was dry for lunch .
When the better weather is about , we will have another Scotland ABR Meet ..

I have been home since 6 PM :laugh: A good day out was had by all I would say and as for the weather? well, it is Scotland so what can you expect.I only had about a minute and a half of hailstones near Doune and the rest of the run home was dry if a little cold.

Today was less than perfect driving conditions, but funny that when steve and myself went down lochearnhead, we were keeping a steady pace, and caught up with a couple of bikers.. The look on the leader as we. Sailed past , was a picture.. Overtaken by a transalp on the twisties... LoL
