Thank you, Malcolm, for the photos.
Only 2 members took part, which is very disappointing, as Cath from the Picts Fort had arranged extra volunteers to come in and give guided tours, not good for the club. The weather forecast was heavy rain all day, but no rain till 1.30, then it was only a steady lite drip. Malcolm and I had a good tour of the site and the Burghead Well, then off to Elgin and then home.
25th August, 6 bikes and riders plus 1 car took part in the P to P run, with 1st was Malcolm, 2nd Emma & 3rd Cliff. Many thanks to Inus for manning the Bar-B-Q once again.
Emma presents a cheque to Ron Williamson, the founder of Mikeysline for £145 proceeds from this year’s rally, with club treasurer John Williams looking on.
A run too far, from Inverness to Mallaig. The run to Mallaig was pretty good, very little rain and the odd bit of sun. A coffee stop at the Thistle cafe and a weather check by Dode, saw some prepare for the worst. The worst didn’t happen till return run, Bill left at Glen Finnan, Peter and myself left Mallaig before the rest who went for a coffee. The rain started just before Fort William and lasted up to Laggan. Riders got home sometime between 5.15 and 8.30, a long day.
Alan died on the 7th July & Peter on the 14th July, both Peter & Alan were laid to rest on Monday the 22nd July 2018 at Inverness, Kilvean cemetery. Some photos from the funerals.
Saturday 20th July, from Dingwall to Tore, or so they said, but instead, it was Dingwall and down Strathconon and back to Muir of Ord for a late lunch snack. One member lost his bike keys en route to Dingwall, no names, but he answers to Ralph. Another great day out in this great sunny weather.
Boat Garten display, 19 bikes on show, but sadly very few people to see them, it rained a couple of times, which was spent either in the shed or in the hotel or cafe eating and drinking.
Only 5 members made this event, the sun shone all day and we got a visit from the Gala Queen and the Big Tots Circus ringmaster, Emma.
