Right folks the game is on.

The destination is Fort Augustus, the date Saturday 6th July to Saturday 13th, although you can do more or less as you please.

The events page refers to the Loch Ness Highland Resort, previously Cumberlands, where we have camped previously.
Other options are hotels, B&B, cottages, apartments or sleeping under a bridge!

I've had an email back from the Lock Ness Highland Resort and they will be happy to see us again

I'm not sorting out your accommodation, I'll leave that up to you. Be warned though hotels etc will fill up so if you want that you need to book well in advance.

I can't guarantee the weather... only exceptionally good riding!

There's a great atmosphere in the campsite when folk are camping but it all disappears when we have to gather from assorted bunkhouses or B&B's.
Of course the weather makes a difference, but even so it's camping everytime for me.

Bike, car or space hopper... all forms of transport are acceptable!

And it all began in 2013... and it was fooking awesome.

Link to the 2013 pics https://www.bikermatch.co.uk/events/event.asp?event_id=4156#photos

Which I've just had a look at again while listening to Little Barrie... I feel all nostalgic now.

Can't comment on 2013 as we only started with the Sequel to the Prequel in '14 - that was a cracking year, amazing weather and a good turnout. Would love to renew acquaintances next year, and make new friends too.

It sounds like the photies have brought back some memories. It was a wonderful week! Blue sky all the way and that utterly insane thrash from the Corran ferry...

The other times I've stayed up there was at Aberchalder .
I like the idea of the Curran ferry sounds like fun
