Default A Highland Hoon

That's Jocks as in Scots, btw, and this is one of my rare posts to justify/defend my Vintage badge ...

Anyway, here are some pics of a recent trip three of us made round the Highlands of Scotland. As it was midweek, we had the place to ourselves and caught some glorious weather. 300 miles of fantastic hooning.

Who needs the Nurburgring Nordschleife when you've got this on your doorstep (The Lecht, incidentally) ...



Needless to say, this one was taken in the private grounds of someone's estate ...



A quick coffee stop at Braemar (home of the Royal Highland Games) ...



And then on with the hooning. That's Dalwhinnie Distillery in the background ...



More pics on this thread.

The meet was planned as a farewell to Vince (Rocephin, one of the S2K Jocks) who's moving to a new job in England, but he couldn't turn up as he was too hungover from a party the night before ...

Speechless! (almost).

Absolutely incredible.

Thanks for sharing the photos (and for taking the time to snap them )

Nice pics, but aren't you on the wrong side of the road?

The roads were empty, so it was strictly "racing lines" ...
