Road trip yesterday in Scotland

[Mark CSL]

Took the CSL for a run round the trossachs yesterday what a run up the east side off Loch Lomond.
Through the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park.
Then over to Aberfoyle and up and over duke’s pass over to Loch Achrey what a road over the mountain
It was 25.5c thats 80F old money good thing my CSL has Aircon.:smokin:


Here are a couple of pictures i took i should have taken more but was enjoying the driving
The car was showing 35mpg :thumbs:

We stopped at Loch Venachar for a coffee and a bit cake 10p change out £10 fook me Scotland can be expensive
And me being a tight scot :banghead:
The lake picture is the View we had with the Coffee and cake so worth the Money.

We then went on to Callander then over to Sterling what a drive i would recomend it.

Sounds good

Dukes pass out the back of Aberfoyle is a great stretch of road!

If you were managing 35 mpg then you can afford the overpriced cake and coffee!! :whistle:

You probably cant see it now...as may be overgrown
But acrossthe road from the hotel you parked outside of, behind the pond/ lochen. There is a random carved stag. Dont really know what the f**ck its for... Tourists or to scare deer away from. Anyway...
