McJim Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Copied from the magazine:"Well it looks like the RBRR will have a lotof new controls this time. It looks likelythat the following 2016 controls will not beused: Blyth, Kinross, Stirling (?), Sugar Loafand Weston Zoyland."No pies at Stirling this time?Also, I don't know how bad Kinross Services were in 2016 but from my visits to Knockhill, Kinross must have been truly dreadful to be replaced by Knockhill - a bleak portacabin building well off the route. Another Weston Zoyland?Jim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescrapman Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Quoted from Alex I liked Weston Zoyland I didn't when I needed to park my Stirling pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt306 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Last year was my first so difficult to compare, however the Weston Zoyland one did seem to be the only one where we went off route to find it, the rest all seemed to be on the route. I liked the tea and bacon buttie though so not all bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthesnail96 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Westonzoyland was weird, but in a good way. Doubt we'll be anywhere quite as surreal this year! Be a shame to lose the traditional stop at Morrisons (and the pies) but with the changes at the garage understandable. The car park does get a tad busy too.

DUBAIDAVE Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Weston Zoyland was my favourite stop, Just needs a few portaloos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shynsy Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Certainly surreal.. we were in the first 10 to arrive and for some reason someone decided that a deserted lane was the Weston zoyland halt.. and everyone followed... looked more like some place for dodgy late night liaisons.. When we got to the halt itself it all seemed pretty good after all at 3-4am you are not looking for a picturesque stop.. Cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cook1e Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Check out the facebook Group, Rob Southern is suggesting he may be able to organise pies at Perth Tesco Extra. This has a 24 hour petrol station and is actually on the route. So it looks like pies in the early wee hours rather than tea time may be an option. Please respond to Rob's post on the RBRR facebook group if you are interested in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
