one thing to remeber on the sunday is we will have to have the tents down and cars packed afore we go on the ride as the checkout is 12noon.

the sunday run should be approx 4 hours so leaving glenmore around 3.30pm - probably dont want to be much later for most folks getting back down the road ?

given the heavy rain in aviemore tomorrow/thurs plus the snow melt fair chance the river crossings may be a bit difficult on the Saturday ?

is there a back up plan just in case ?

Yep, it's already been thought of...

SNOW
Today the road to Tomintoul is closed due to heavy snow, the A93 is passable with care and for a brief period the snow gates on the A9 were closed.

This is getting too much of a habit for my National meet attendances :facepalm:

Naw, was on the radio this morning, Spittal of Glenshee, Tomintool, etc... I think they finished it off with assorted ferry crossings cancelled due to gale force winds!

Drumochter Pass looks fine, how bad can it be?

Could someone please bring a shock pump with them, I want to fit the SIDS I'm collecting from Robmac before the ride I'll be bringing the Marin to this one I think.
