Now I have been to the Loch Tulla view point and this is not anywhere to be seen....

Weird how that comes up on the google maps link. It looks more like this.....

and it is the car park where there is often a burger van and bag piper. It is also the scene of the very first road accident I attended after I joined the police.

Yes to all the above!


But you can't have 'Farm'; depot; shed; burger bar, etc. - keep to the spirit of the Challenge. 8-)

 

I'm guessing I just find a pub near me with any of the 10 names and these aren't specific pubs in the country.

Correct, mate......so long as it's a pub name that's listed, it doesn't matter where in the country it is...... :wink:

I think that the thing to remember about the challenge is that it's just an encouragement to get out on your bike, and maybe explore places that you've never been to before......above all, it's for fun!.... :wink:

Cool so I'll find the nicest one in range as might as well enjoy a drink and lunch at them. :cheers:

WHAT, this is serious, after finishing 2nd last year my ambition this time around is to at least make GOG sweat a bit. :shock:

 

Sorry Guys, After my worse year in 46 years of biking, you have no chance, and as [mention]Stocky[/mention] say's it is serious, :) :) all I have to do is get off these Crutches!!! :oops:

I think there should be extra points for getting the Applecross Inn, although the reward for getting there is a fantastic ride.

 

It is great road unfortunately I was in the car when I did it.

Did think straight away when looking at the Pub names, have to try for The Applecross Inn, not been over the Pass for awhile, last time was on a Old Honda CB650Z. Another brill road is if you do the Rannoch Smokery, then if you have time carry on to the Rannoch moor station at the end, brilliant bit of road. :D
