April 24, 201610 yr Going to be arriving in the Kinlochleven area about midday on the Saturday. Will the trial still be going on then? If so where would be the best place to head? I have watched the 6 days many times but never managed to catch any of the pre65, so would like to see some if possible.
April 24, 201610 yr Pick up a trial programme from the paddock area usually right by the gates where you enter, possibly pipeline or the roadside above the loch might be best.
April 25, 201610 yr Looking at the Friday route, you'll be able to pick up sections on your way into Kinlochleven, but the odd numbered riders should have pretty much passed by noon and even numbers aren't due there until around 1:30 so, depending on when you arrive, possibly time for a spot of lunch (and pick up a programme) in Kinlochleven then head back out the south road. Some of the sections are pretty close to the roadside so are easily spotted.
April 25, 201610 yr Author Thanks for the info. So it sounds like there will still be plenty to see at midday on Saturday. I will head in and get a programme and have a watch.
April 25, 201610 yr I went on Saturday last year and am doing the same again this year. It was my first time at the Pre 65 Scottish. AS you arrive in Kinlochleven, because of the odd and even numbering you will find bikes and riders travelling in all sorts of random directions and if you just want to see bikes and riders it's dead easy. If you want to see somebody or something more specific then you need to get a programme and do a bit of planning Can't claim to be an expert on this but it worked for me
April 25, 201610 yr I have heard their is a shuttle bus being run on the south side to help with parking at the side of the road
