duncanshaw@scotland Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 this may be a stupid question but. . . . . . . what like is the parking up there for this comp because as ben mentioned i am driving the pimp mobile and it doesn't really agree with parking in a field without it doing some gardening of its own with the underside of the car i should get a chance to go past work this week on the way home from uni to see if i can get time off for this :P i really dont know yet as i havent had the chance to go and meet the organiser at the venue yet.It should be pretty flat but im not sure.Will let you know as soon as i find out.

Entry will be on the morning of the comp,Should just be a couple of small forms to fill out. Hope that helps you duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncanshaw@scotland Posted November 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hi guys. I met kevin yesterday at the venue.Sorry no pics.Nothin to take yet.It is an old gravel quarrry with loads of huge logs so i can see there probably being around three log sections along with probably man made ones and kevin is confident he will get a lorry load of rocks dumped there before the comp which could then be moved into place with a digger that is available for him to use.The comp starts at 11 so you would probably wanna be there around ten so you can look at thye sections and sign on.The actual venue is just before fort augustus coming from inverness and will be clearly signed from the main road.Sponsored by nevis cycles who will supply the prizes whatever they are,im not sure.Hope that helps you.If you have anymore questions just post them and i can get in touch with kevin and let you know. Cheers Duncan hahahaa, bobby d, what a user name darren. (Y) depending on the situation, im either camping or hotelling, we will see. but yer duncan if you could fire some info up it would be much appreciated, ben If a few of you guys from the stonehaven/aberdeen contingent are wanting a place to stay you guys could stay at mine.Im about 35 mins from the comp.would save you a bit of money.
