There's been talk of one starting up in Aberfeldy for ages, but it's not started yet. If you don't fancy a tough one at Faskally, then Perth is a nice flat one, but a bit further of a drive There’s a good few that have been imminent a while.

Any more? @Old Croc @57.5 Degrees of Pain @RunningRonnie @halfpint - are you around by any chance? Is there a usual refuel stop afterwards? Maybe people fancy going for brekky. I would’ve loved to host, but I inherited a knackered cooker when I moved in and I’m down to 2 rings and no oven! I will definitely offer when my kitchen’s done. Guess who managed to get there a week early.................
