Hello All! I'm a proud new owner of a Supercharged 320 Ariel Atom 3. I am based on the Isle of Skye and would love to hear from folk 'up North' who meet for runs etc.
I have some novice questions to ask but I'll try and find the appropriate forum!
Thanks

Welcome SkyAtom, nice work on the purchase!
There is certainly a northern chapter so I'm sure someone will be along shortly! In fact, there is planning in place for a bit of a Border Blast in May so some of us shandy drinkers might be up your way then! Keep an eye on the events section of the forum.
In the meantime, any questions, feel free to ask!

310=325! That'll be the Presidential Remap kicking in...

Must just give a plug for Morar Motors at Mallaig. Last May did the clockwise tour up from Lochgilphead, aiming for Mallaig, the plan being to see my secretary who has moved to Skye recently, then get up to Applecross, round the top via Bettyhill, then back through the Grampians on the Military Road. Home for me is Cumbria.
Day 1, got to Lochgilphead, started to rain stairrods, and smacked a rock at the side of the road. 90 miles short of Mallaig. Kept going, as was following a pal.
No idea how but made it, to find a hole in the sidewall and a chip from the Dymags. Wrote off the rest of the trip, but through my secretary was told of Morar Motors.
Next morning gingerly trundled the Atom 3 Miles. Got her there. The fellas could not have been more helpful and, what is more, had a brand New set of T1R’s in stock. Which they fitted in time for me to catch the 9.40am ferry. And only charged £172 the pair.
Absolutely brilliant and saved my trip for which I will always be grateful.
Will give you a shout when next up. Which part of Skye. You have fantastic roads to play on!
All the best

Ps the Dymag was subsequently written off so feel rather lucky it didn’t fail on me!
