Scotland : Edinburgh & Lothians Future CC Ecosse Ride suggestions

[DougieAB]

Kevin, looks like you avoided going up the Temple hill and crossed the river South Esk at Sandy,s Brig and onto Carrington. You did however have to climb the hill from Arniston Glen up to the Povert Road and also the final hill past my house on New Hunterfield. Good little run as the hill at Arniston Glen is almost as bad as the Temple hill. Looks like we stay about five minutes walk away from each other. I am just down the road from you, where the B704 sign is on your map (blue Saab 9-3 parked on the drive). We will have to go out for a spin sometime or keep an eye out for the next CC Ecosse ride.

I'm def up for that, I'm just down from scotmid on hunter field road.

I have that 8 mile route that I try and do every morning at the weekend but looking to go further afield, maybe hit 40 plus miles

Of your going out let me know and we can meet

I received an email today re the Perthshire sportive next August, anyone else going again?

Yep - 30th August?

50 or 100 - what do you think?

Is it similar to the Glasgow thing last september?

Count me in!

I'd be up for either distance but leaning towards the 100 - I hope to be doing the odd century ride next year, might as well make that one of them!

 

[Kevin Alexander]

I'm interested in the 100

 

[Louch]

Wanted to do the 100 this year, but passed. Think @Col5632 is too, if he makes it through the week with his man flu.

I expect to be up for the 100 mile HPC as well.

Anyone have plans for January? I was thinking of running the Loch Lomond ride we did last year again.

I'm up for that, assuming the weather plays nice - was a great ride.

I need to sort out my cycling calendar for next year, because so far there's nothing on it, and some of the bigger events have already sold out

I'd be up for the 100 as well, all the better if there were a few of us doing it.

 

[Louch]

Cool, I will sign for the 100.

Loch Lomond sounds good to me @Rasmus . Nothing too tricky as don't want to damage my new bike as will get in January

Hardest bit is avoiding the apaches in the "wildwestend" of Glasgow......
