10/11 or 17/18 good for me
Give me a few days and i'll check what i'm like for this. I could potentially be in ( there and back in a day sounds good for me )
Im well up for this, I'm never knowingly dragged anywhere.
Has anyone posted this?

Hi Guys
Time off for me isn't a problem so if you want to make a date and then i'll sort it out so im there.

OK - any objections before I make this into a new thread?
Weekend of 10/11 April.
Ullapool - Bonar Bridge - Ullapool with a 2-day option overnightitng in Ullapool.
I'll wait a couple more days on this thread before starting an official new one.
None, just count me and italspark in.
Stuartie,
I can't do 10th and 11th I'm afraid, I've already booked that weekend for the 4 dayer (Gleneagles to Lochearnhead to Killin to Rannoch to Taynuilt then Oban)
I mighten't even be able to do the 17th 18th as I'd need to leave Edinburgh after work and then get back sunday night, need to look at transport logistics!
Will check it out at lunchtime.
I might be keen on this and can definitely make the weekend of the 17th/18th as the better half is away that weekend 😀 Less sure of the 10th/11th but may make it.
13thfloormonk, that sounds an interesting route you're doing there. Have you got any further details of the route taken?
I've got it all mapped Ally, although I've assumed miserable conditions throughout so there's a healthy proportion of landy track thrown in, and some slightly pointless detours to visit some random wee spots I fancied.
Doune - Braes of Doune - Findhu Glen - Glen Artney - Arivurichardich Bothy - Gleannan dubh Choirein - Glen vorlich - Lochearnhead - Glen Kendrum - Glean Dubh - Killin - Lochan na Lairige - Bridge of Balgie - Lairig Ghallabhaich - Rannoch forest - Rannoch Station - Kingshouse Hotel - Victoria Bridge - Glen Kinglass - Inverawe
I was just playing with memory map when I plotted that but figured it'd be a good route, could probably do it in three days if the weather played ball...
if you were a week earlier you'd be overtaking us on our tourers
we'll be in Plockton by then though
Just had a look on memory map - unless I am being a total muppet then its a lot less than you said - under 30 miles each way and under 2500ft off climb each way - that makes it a lot more feasable for a return in a day.
anyone going up in a van / big car that can take the tandem?
you forgot to factor in the D.E.F.
D.E.F? I did only take the route to the limits of the tidal river rather than on to bonar bridge - thats probably the difference
if you make it ill tell you what it means !
