I have booked a Trekker Hut in Tyndrum for this coming Thursday and Friday night:

Cost is £20 for single occupancy or a total of £30 for two. Anyone here want to keep their tent dry on Friday night for £15?

Hostel is full so I booked it for myself. I am going up Thursday but doubt anybody else will be that early arriving but happy to share that night as well.

Snorer's need not apply!

Nice and cozy, especially with 2 bikes in one.

One thing to not about Tyndrum is there is no parking anywhere. Its just a main road up to the highlands with a few buildings either side. No real place to stash any cars without someone wondering who they belong to. I asked the campsite if i could leave the car there for the week, but they forgot and then called the Police thinking we'd gone missing on the hills :oops:

I'm assuming you'll be fine on the train Kevin.

Stash your car(s) in Crianlarich then ride the few miles up to Tyndrum? Should make for a nice warmdown ride back after the race. ;)

I left my van in the car park outside the Visitors Centre in Tyndrum when I went off for a night. There's tons of space.
