Listen up, lads and lassies...

You've heard the rumours, yes we're planning a long-awaited rendezvous and parley, not to mention a fair spread of tarmac-crunching, while we still have daylight and fair autumnal colour!

To accommodate new compañeros and attract as many coupes as possible - which includes the most northerly example in the British Isles - this is likely to consist of a route centering on the best of Aberdeenshire.

Due to other commitments we're aiming for mid-October - assuming a weekend day suits most people please indicate your preference/availability for the following dates...


- Sat 17th
- Sun 18th
- Sat 24th


(Sun 25th not so good as clocks will have gone back this day)


1. Edinburgh (any day)

Oooooooh!!!!! Interesting. . I can’t commit at the moment Simon, but I’m definitely interested.

Saturdays are best for me Simon, but can do a Sunday if better for most folk.

Morning, sounds good - any day works for me.

1. Edinburgh (any day)
2. jimboy (provisional)
3. driley (Sats preferred)
4. Alastair (any day)

The itinerary (thanks to Brian for investigating) could look something like this...


Revised Coupe cavalcade route



Initial meet-up at McDonalds, Forth Road Bridge, secondary rendevous at/near Stonehaven with northern contingent - somewhere like this for example


Kirktown Garden Centre


- located on the ring road, plenty of parking space, café etc.

1. Edinburgh + 1 (any day)
2. jimboy (provisional)
3. driley (Sats preferred)
4. Alastair (any day)
5. Rosso + 1 (any Sat)

Some latest amendments made to itinerary above..
