Thanks....one minute you think you have loads of time to prepapre, next thing you know your running about like a blue ersed fly getting things finalised....some things never change....lol.

And for any of the ladies (or men) at a loose end this evening don't forget we have the Virgin Vie Fundraising Party Night at the Stadium....7.00pm for 7.30pm....The more we get along the merrier :001:

By this time in 8 days time we will be nearing the end of Day 1 at Dollar after gubbing Falkirk.

Everyone is really looking forward to this years event, as always. It will be excellent to finally have the 'Immorral' one on board, even for the last few days! The anticipation of his presence the last couple of years is finally set to become reality. Superb :022:

It will be another weird one this year too with the absence of the PB's and Gringos, yet the excitement is still there. I can't wait to get out on the road now!!! :021:

We'll no doubt try and update people on our progress during the week of walking both on the forum and on HighlandMarch.co.uk

hey.

good luck to the pepole!

I think you are doing a brilliant!

:021: :021: :021:!!

Whats the route this time CD

Falkirk to Inverness.... der 

We intend to head over the Kincardine bridge and venture North to Dollar after the game. We then head over the Ochills into Gleneagles and onwards to Crieff (avoiding a busy 2 mile long straight road in the process - thank feck)

From there its along Loch Freuchie and over the hills into Kenmore. A route we have previousluy done - twice. LoL

Heading NE out of Kemore we head to Dalnacardoch, and weather permitting, the Pass of Glen Tromie. Should the weather and late snow melt be an issue, we shall follow Cycle Route 7 through Dalwhinnie and into Newtonmore and pretty much stick with the CR7 as far as Sluggan Bridge (carrbridge) but take in the Speyside Way too. Another route we have done before in both directions.

One the penultimate day we head to Daviot, with the final leg starting at Daviot woods and onwards to the Stadium. We'll probably aim for around 1pm for the Innes for a wee swally before out scheduled arrival at 1430...

Phew - that was a mouthful. A day to day schedule will probably be posted just before we set off so people can track our progress...

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET GOING... BRING IT ON :021: :021: :021:

Or in brief.......

Saturday Post Match - Falkirk to Tillicoultry/Dollar

Sunday - Over the Ochils (weather permitting) to Glen Eagles, failing that it's the A823 and on to Crieff

Monday - Crieff to Kenmore

Tuesday - Kenmore to Dalnacardoch Lodge (including a wee jaunt up Schiehallion for those feeling up to it)

Wednesday - Dlanacardoch Lodge over Glen Tromie to Tromie Bridge (east of Ruthven) waether permitting.  If not then it's the route via Dalwhinnie and round into Newtonmore.

Thursday - Newtonmore/Tromie Bridge to Sluggan Bridge/Carrbridge

Friday - Sluggan Bridge/Carrbridge to Daviot

Saturday - Daviot to Stadium via Dows and the Innes

We'll have a map online at www.HighlandMarch.co.uk before we depart giving the exact route planned.

Cheers for that CD. Are you walking or driving this time?

Utmost respect for all you guy's, :salute:  I get weary these days if eh have to drive that far! 

Know what you mean, H/Dee...  These days I struggle just to walk round a golf course, although I do tend take a very zig zag route...

Good luck to the marchers.... If your passing through Muckhart, about 4 miles along the road from Dollar, be sure and stop at the Muckhart Inn.. great little pub... They make their own beer and it's delightful.... (Devon Original)

Jnr...Don't forget the cornbeef sarnies.... :015:

Cheers for that CD. Are you walking or driving this time?

Driving again....not even remotely fit enough to walk anything like what these guys do even though I'm much fitter than I was last year.

Got a new job lined up for when I get back and going to get myself back to the gym with the aim of doing at least part of the walk next year......that's if they'll let me retire my driving duties  :015:

Good Luck to all involved :021: :clapping03: :021: :clapping03:

Ay, have a good one !  :022:

Hope the weather holds for you (although you could probably do with it cooling off a little).  Have a great time, see you all next weekend.  :021:
