We left Grantown on Spey heading north to Melvich via Loch Ness, Fort Augustus, Urquhart Castle and General Wades Road.
We were late leaving with the group so followed on 15 minutes later. We were not rushing but were focused on meeting them at the first stop in Fort Augustus, when the trip took a turn for the worst. Thankfully Sarah was not badly hurt, but her bike was unrideable and required recovery to our preferred dealership in North Oxford.
We have to say, the BMW SOS and Assist Service is priceless, and we would highly recommend this should anyone consider buying a BMW product.
We would like to extend our gratitude to both Ross's Garage & Recovery in Inverness and BMW Motorrad in Inverness for an absolutely outstanding service.
When we realised, we were unable to catch up the group due to the time we had spent organising ourselves and without taking far too many unwanted risks, we diverted to the following night’s location and stayed for 2 nights thanks to Katrina and Chris from BMW Motorrad Tours who made this possible.
The staff at Myrtle Bank Hotel were accommodating and welcoming as well as giving us a relaxed couple of days stay, not to mention the nostalgic catch up with Shaun the owner who was in the same trade as my parents, so we discussed 'the good old days' which was fantastic.

Thank you AJ & Sharpie x
