Following on from Craig's advice reference suitable gear for NC500, Mo and I went out today on the Cheviots for a pre-deployment check out!

Will be watching your progress with interest guys.

Speaking of the non-Scottish weather I just spotted this in the news.

Crews tackle wildfire in Sutherland burning since Sunday https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-48280002

It’s on the road to Thurso so keep yours eyes open for any developments that might affect your route.

Oops - just noticed Nictrix beat me to it.

Looking forward to this and the weather looks awesome

My pal has a drone but we don’t really have the room in the Westy for any extra luggage (or even luggage).

What do people think, is it worth taking and if so would anyone carry it with their real cars.

Cheers for the heads up... hopefully they will have it sorted come Tomorrow/Friday,as it's been ongoing since Sunday past,so fingers crossed.
That would be right pita if it wasn't.
