This has been re-assigned to this weekend. The Scottish Borders run planned for this weekend has been moved to mid August.

This weekend will take around the “South West Coastal 300”, one of the new series of Scottish driving routes.

Its planned to start about 9:00 am and finish 5:00 pm each day with somewhere around 150-200 miles driving per day.

There will be two toilet stops as well as well as a scheduled lunch on both days.

A WhatsApp group will be set up for each run to allow pre run co-ordination and on the day(s) any short notice issues/emergencies etc, so you will need a smartphone with WhatsApp.

Hello everyone, just a note to say that we’ve taken the decision to defer the upcoming weekend bash to Dumfries and Galloway scheduled for March 2021 to later in the year.

Given some attendees need to plan ferries, we all need to sort out hotels and with, as I write today, a far from likely probability that either inter country or even intra country travel and hospitality will be allowed by the time we need to commit to various activities.

With the fact that there are several events planned for this year, rather than have a cascade of movements, we’ll just move each one (in turn if required) to be held at a future point this year once travel and hospitality have been re-opened.

We’ll give a minimum of 4 weeks’ notice for any deferments and similarly for any re-planned trips. It could get congested later in the year, but if at all possible, we plan to run all the 2021 planned calendar, even if they have to be scheduled close together later in the year.
Here’s an interesting article on what basis the Scottish Government will relax restrictions for those that are interested.

Hi Peter, of course, would be inappropriate to have a non Zed on a Zed weekend..

And I still will have those guys whining on about how smooth straight sixes are

Hope you have a great time and I’ll be back if I find that perfect Zed

Unless of course as previously offered by following an hour behind and parking round the corner when we stop. Then we MAY still speak to you for defecting without even getting a Z4
