next CC Ecosse ride May/June

[HLaB]

HJ is having a lie down ... What have you done to him?
He returned with a bit of a cyclist's tan - thankfully not lobster-coloured!

T (feeling a bit better, apparently I have a deep husky voice now . Shame the effect is spoilt by coughing

I showed him a big hill, it was downhill though Edit: maybe he got too excited.

Glad you are feeling better

He's lying down? Did we ride too fast for him today??

Glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better now T

Grand day out today! Glorious weather and company (as usual). Great to see another 2 new faces and kudos to Macmerry Saint for a great effort today!

Special mention for Jane for being appropriately attired for the weather!

my boob tube was black, not pink

Well it was rather hot

Jane, have you been modelling for Steven on the quite??

No the ride wasn't too fast, I think it was more like the heat I am not used to cycling at 25° C, or maybe it was T's response after I did as you told me to...

Thanks sleekitcollie - it definitely worked

[Jane Smart]

Great pics, once again a nice reminder of such a great day

Sleekit you certainly deserved that drink, you certainly did well coming out with us having had no sleep

Hope to see you all again very soon

You use the "Go Advanced" button then look for the paperclip in the toolbar, click and follow the instructions in the pop up window

After seeing that first photo I have decided to wear baggy clothes until I lose some weight. I am surprised people could eat after seeing me dressed like that. lol

 

[Jane Smart]

Macmerry don't put yourself down like that lol

No one likes themselves in photos. I am also ( again ) cutting down after seeing pics of me the other week at Linlithgow and also yesterdays.. .. ..

Oh well

Think I may do another 46 miler today, that will burn off some calories.

You did really well yesterday ;-)

Hey MacMerry,

Don't worry about how you look as many of us have been bigger and lost some weight. You did great yesterday on a bike with a old school 52/42 double and what looked like a 23 max on the back - thats pretty hard gearing easpecially for the wee steep bits on Cleish Hill. Stick with it and keep coming out you'll be suprised just how quick you improve as your certainly not lacking in effort/commitment - good on ye!

 

[Telemark]

well said Kevin!

CC Ecosse is full of people who have been near the back at some point. But I can't recall anybody NOT coming back for more, because they felt discouraged ...

[There are also the greyhounds of course, but they keep coming back for the company or something. I am guessing here, as I am not one of them .]

Sorry I missed you yesterday, Macmerry Saint - hope to see you next time! And don't worry what you look like ... nobody else does ... [says she who HATES having her photo taken ]
