The Rules!

To join the convoy, all we ask is that you organise a car-load of supporters who are prepared to meet the costs (fuel, insurance, etc) of participating in the tour, as we would like every penny raised through sponsorship to go to the Reclaim The Rovers cause. Contact falski@raithrovers.net with your details to register for the tour. Sponsorship forms will be made available to all participants.

In the interests of safety, you should ensure that you have at least two drivers in your car to share the burden of getting your car around Scotland, and we ask that you stay with the convoy at all times (we will be observing the legal speed limits!)

Although it is theoretically possible to visit all 42 grounds in Scotland within 24 hours, this would not allow time for photos to be taken at each ground or for rest and food stops. Setting a target time might also lead me into lead-foot temptation and lose my driving license, so with this in mind we will not put a time limit on the tour. We do expect to return to Kirkcaldy at some point late in the evening of Sunday 18th September, though.

The Plan!
