Folks, this is up early because I'm doing it while I remember.
for the Glasgow meet the Scottish Region of the BMWCC will be meeting at the;

Stonefield Pub & Carvery,
Dumbarton Road,
Milton,
Dumbarton,
G82 2TN.


on 1st February 2009 at 1pm as usual.
For those who feel inclined afterwards we'll be going for a liesurely jaunt along the shores of Loch Lomond down into Arrochar, through onto Garelochhead and then across the MOD road from Faslane back over to Balloch.

DIRECTIONS

route from showcase cinema
the location is on the right at the fuel stations/Nissan Garage but has no direct entrance for west bound traffic so to enter it will require you to hang a u-turn and join east bound traffic. be warned this is a very busy road, my preferred option would be to turn right into Milton Brae(just before left bend) this way you can turn safely, rejoin east bound A82 then enter venue(approx 200yrds)

alternative route from showcase
for those who would prefer to avoid too much motorway but be warned this is a busy part of the city to negotiate and could add considerable time to your journey

TRAFFIC UPDATE
I have been informed that the west bound off ramp on Erskine Bridge will be closed for road works, an approx 1mile diversion will be in place but depending on traffic volume this could add some time to your journey


hope to see you all there

I'm well up for that 20 mins from home.

Put my name down for the run too.  That's a great road past the MOD over the hills.

I've even got the approval of the Long Haired General, her indoors who must be obeyed at all times.

Is the plan to have lunch at the pub first?

lunch will be first then the run. think of it as your last supper , unfortunately they wouldn't accept reservations so it's first come but they have assured me that if we're there for 1pm then they'll be able to seat us, if we went for run first we couldn't rely on getting some food.
it's not ideal but I have had good reports about the food so thought it worthwhile to take the chance.
I'll make sure everybody that makes the effort will be looked after
