NORTH COAST 500

Post by vpreynolds »

Anyone here interested in the north coast 500? I live as far up north as you can get! from experience it is beautiful, long, straight and relentlessly winding within un-monitored mountainous road.
Where better to drive? It would be such a shame to do it alone one day.
Any takers?
Anyone willing to organise an event on this forum?
Just thinking out loud.....
and for anyone who hasn't heard of it yet

wow, what a fantastic adventure up north ... pictures of the surroundings look unreal. however, as much as i would really like to do this, i live in gatwick, to glasgow is an 8 hour drive without stopping for me and quite a bit for the individual hotels, plus extra fuel etc , oh and spending money too. if i was closer then possibly, but at the moment, sorry no can do

If you remove the back seat top half then you can turn the car into a camper with a sleeping bag and the lower half of the seat as a pillow. I'll be doing the same with my partner. in the outback. Believe me the stars at night and local sounds are worth listening too camping out!
