Plugged the route into google and it does give some lengthy travelling times don't recall it taking so long though.

RAC route planner says 90 miles / 1hr 45min from Renfrew to Newton Stewart. So allowing 2 hours I'd need to leave here at 8am to arrive at 10am. Then I'd have to leave at 1pm.

And your looking at £25 of diesel :cry:

Just spotted this - THE 2012 FORT WILLIAM MOUNTAIN FESTIVAL - 15th to 19th Feb

This is bike night with Steve Peat and others...

http://www.mountainfestival.co.uk/programme/ has loads for those into rock climbing too.

I guess only really suitable for those with days off or live near by.

From Big Al's Wheelcraft website:

Big Al hand-builds wheels to the tiniest of margins (typically less than a 'baw hair', or 0.5mm to folks from outside of Scotland) and always combines the best components for the job.

He's good now dyna thanks, he's back at school but will be off sports and walking to school for a week or 2, his energy levels are lower and he needs to build them back up gradually.

He did his first cycle in a while at the weekend, about 2 miles on the flat at an easy pace but it is a start.
