Scotland : Edinburgh & Lothians CC Ecosse East Ride - Sat 6 April

[Col5632]

When is the pedal on the parliament?

Sunday 19th May, with it being a sunday now i'm not sure i can make it

 

[Fubar]

FFS!!! Lol

I think I will give the dunfermline ride a bash in the 13th and if others want to come along then great
It's going to get harder to suit all as we come more into sportive season anyway

13 April seems ok with me, so pencil me in and I'll firm it up with you shortly. Cheers, M

I don't think I can make the 13th, unfortunately.

What date can you make?

 

[Rasmus]

What date can you make?

Pretty much anything else, with a few weeks notice.

 

[Edwardoka]

TBH, May 4th is probably ok for me.

If the last couple of days are anything to go by, I'll be completely broken by the end of the April challenge so don't think it would be a good idea to hit the fairly challenging Drumlanrig Sportive so soon afterwards.

Shall we say 9am and usual place? (sounds dodgy that)

I'm guessing you know your way, i know the way roughly

Hope most can make the date

Which way round are you going ?

I was wondering why the CC Ecosse Forum rides thus far this year have been in wet, cold and horrible weather. Then, when the sun shines for a week and rain is but a past memory**, ...... no rides.

Tomorrow, I was considering going for a wee doodle around W Lothian, starting from SQ and ending at Linlithgow, so any westies who came over can train to/from Liligow, ride to start, head off from Liligow on way back.

Something like this would give plenty of options - for newbies, social riders, would-be mountain goats, actual goats, Strave-seekers, coffee/CAKE riders etc. I did most of it with edindave a couple of weeks ago and it kept him fairly honest ... though he bailed out of one of my 'options'

The loop round the back of Liligow can be revised easily enough - and Kingscavil hill is not far away ...


** there was a strange sound around 2300 last night, though - and it looked wet outside

 

[Col5632]

Which way round are you going ?

I think we will be going round the same way as last time You can tell my sense of direction is terrible eh?








I'm going to say East to West

I'd be up for a doddle round WL, and a chance to get a wee CC Ecosse ride going - though I'll bend to Colin's will at a moments notice!

PS 9am sound awfully early...

@Scoosh, what time are you planning on starting the ride?

Mark - How does 10am sound? Could maybe meet Scoosh at 10.30?

 

[Scoosh]

Now that sounds quite a bit more civilised - given that it'll take me 40 mins to get to SQ.

1030 at the carpark ... or the Shell station .

Might have to wrap up warm
