A few final points before we set off.

For those that didn't make the short meeting a week or so ago, here are the key points discussed/agreed;

• Group costs and itinerary updated in previous posts
• Total group costs (accommodation, van, van ferry etc) estimated to be £100.  John Dyer in charge of the kitty.  If you haven't given him your £100 yet could you make sure you do so before we set off. 
• If you've paid group accommodation and other group costs up front see John and he'll square you up from the kitty.
• Remember to book your individual travel - see itinerary.
• Food booked at Saturday night accommodation by Alastair - dinner and breakfast plus packed lunch for Sunday.  £27 each.
• Johnny booking food for Sunday night at the accommodation.  Can't remember cost. 
• GPS traces of possible route can be downloaded  from the mapping page on previous posts.
• Van loading - from 6.30 to 7.45 at VAL on Thursday 6th.  Aim is to prioritise bikes in van.  Bring your bags along on Thursday night but you may have to hand carry them on Friday - depending on how full the van gets.   Van being stored at Motherwell Police Station overnight (thanks Scotty)
• Bring sleeping bag - may be needed for bunk-houses and would be useful as bike separators/padding.  
• Friday departure - meet at Queen Street station 8am.   Quite a few folk catching the train from Hamilton at 7.15.
• Return/unpacking - 7am at VAL.
