highly recommended. I cycled a lot between Edinburgh and Perth, and always stopped there on the way.
if you're on a motorbike you should be able to park opposite or alongside, if there's no parking space in front. a single bike shouldn't cause a problem, and Milnathort is a quite sort of place.
cheers

We had a great weekend, catching up with old and new friends. Beej n Chris thank you for organising it this weekend, a bonus for me.
Cant quite get our heads round how many great friends we have made since joining the HUBB forum.
Already looking forward to 2014 and our collective adventures.
Hill walking cancelled tomorrow due to having no car brake problems.
Dave - I am going to be googling Montenegro :-)
See you all next year.

So very true! After a long soak in the bath yesterday evening and a shower this morning where I thoroughly washed my hair I couldn't believe it when getting dressed for work this morning I could still smell smoke! Beej :confused1:

Still waiting LOL
Beej, I am still waiting for the campsite to contact me about electronic payment details LOL. I didn't want to turn up and be told I could not stay cos I had not payed in advance. They did promise to contact me after a few emails about payment but zilch.
Hope its all sorted for 2014

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.
Read more about Grant & Susan's story
Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
