Most roads around the country have taken a battering with all the bad weather. There's loads of pot holes on the roads were I live, and it has been reportedon the news about the state of the roads around the uk, so iw ould assume scotland will be the same

Roads up here have got quite a few pot holes and there is still a far bit of grit laying about them, but if you don't mind the cold I'd say take the bike! I hope to get out next weekend myself, not managed so far due to other commitments. Just be careful :thumbup

I'd maybe go A82 rather than A9 as there's still a fair bit of snow around to the east (Dunblane etc.) so bound to be greasy and salty....yum yum!

Got down to Glasgow weekend before last and the roads were ok-ish on A82 despite a fair heap of snow at the roadside. Take it really easy and you'll be fine. But not sure it would be enjoyable coming so far. ???
