CC Ecosse August Ride

[HLaB]

any silly questions will do for a wee "bump" of the thread

Thanks, we shall wait at the station, for the assembled CC Ecosse peloton to arrive, an impressive frightening sight if you've never seen it before

Frightening in more way than one

just make sure you iron your CC jerseys

How about an impromtu meet this weekend, since we're supposed to be having some anyone up for it ?

Just name a time and a place, and a tempting route? Seamab managed to get some takers for his impromptu Perth ride a few weeks ago

Sam and I have a ride over Crow Road and up Tak Ma Doon planned for very early Saturday (stupid o'clock), but I'd be up for one on Sunday if that's when you're thinking?

So where we going jimbhoy?

Sunday's good at the moment for me too, just don't make it too early I'd be cycling through

How stupid ? as i was thinking of doing this route myself at the weekend, if it's reasonable, i could meet you at the Lennoxtown side.

Oh i've started something now i didn't have anything planned, i just thought it would be nice to make the most of the supposed sunshine coming our way, if anyone wishes to suggest a route feel free, what about one of the other CC Ecosse routes that's suitable for quite a few people to meet.

07:30 start from Stirling. It's about 20 miles to Lennoxtown so maybe be there about 9? (I'm guessing, there's a lot of "uphill" to do).

not stupid enough for Jimbhoy, online at 05:50 AM

I can confirm that I definitely won't join you on this one, too stupid for me , and I wouldn't want to hold up any serious training

If you are allowed out both days, and if anybody fancies coming that far east for a recovery ride on Sunday, we were thinking of heading east or south from Edinburgh (East- or Midlothian, possibly into the Borders, depending on the weather and how we feel). There WILL be cake afterwards, whether anybody is joining us or not, we have courgette overload .

Stupid enough for me. I have to get up earlier at the weekend to go cycling with Sam than I do to go to work! So much for getting a rest at the weekend!

I know, started work at 5am this morning, sod all to do but browse thru CC to see what was happening in the crazy world of cycling BTW, i might take you up on the offer of a ride out east on Sun, i'll see how it goes nearer the time.

I'll see if i can make it, it depends on how tired i'll be at the weekend, although after getting up at 4am all week for work, you'd think i'd be used to getting up early
