The approx 100 mile route on glorious roads through Stirlingshire, Perthshire and the Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park this year starting from The Beech Tree Inn, Dumgoyne, by Killearn  and finishing back at Culcreuch Castle, Fintry www.culcreuch-castle-hotel.com for High Tea and Award Ceremony.    A Tulip Plan Route Book together with a map to ensure no one gets lost will be provided. Entrants will have the choice of making their own way, individually or driving in small groups.  The event has been organised essentially for driving enjoyment on quieter traffic free roads.   It is estimated that those parts of the route on A, B, and better minor roads will be easily covered at an average of 30mph with the more interesting single track roads at a lower average.
