31st March Balloch to Helensburgh run

Featured Replies

The last two meets have seen an amazing turn out i'm so glad people are coming along and hopefully enjoying them selfs and meeting new people.

To ease into the next few months of runs the first one is kind of short, it's 40 miles and around 1hr, i will try and make the directions clearer..... for Kenny, Please do not tailgate the car in front leave plenty of space nor do any unnecessary and dangerous overtaking it wont be tolerated. When we stop in Helensburgh there are plenty fish and chip shops.

12:30PM

Ben Lomond way Blue Carpark

Grizzle -as a native of the burgh ,I'll be there in spirit. ( and I know a few more chip shops,and pubs not on the map). But as I'm stuck a looot of miles down south ,I'll not be joining you in body. Best of luck with a Balloch to Helensburgh run .

Route map coming up as a dead link for me mate :(

The carpark at mcdonalds is tiny, your lucky if you can get 20 cars there and it's always 50% full, as the fiances aunt stay a few streets away, might be better at the car park just past the train station on the left

50% full Even at 12:30 on a sunday?

trust me it's quite busy and tiny, carpark 500m away is bigger and not used as much

Sesachc right Griz, that mcdonald car parks stupidly tiny. Been up there on the bike many a time.

Might be easier to meet at Loch Lomond shores?

look on google maps for sweeny cruises the carpark there is large enough for us to gather, it's just left off the road the train station is on, or the co-op across from the lomond information centre

Still cannot copy & paste,but I will be there.

OLD BIDDIE???

Btw if anyone's looking for a full size spare I have one spare ( confiscated one from my old vrs trade in as garage were being tight ) Full size spare with Bridgestone Turanza er300 never ever used. Pm me if your interested in buying. Hopefully can come to a deal of some sort.
