No facility to edit the OP so here goes:

I think with the new forum software posts can only be edited during a 2-hour (?) window, which isn't ideal for trying to help people find the details. Not sure whether the same applies to calendar entries?
Maybe HLaB can try to edit, as he posted there?

Looks like a big crowd

[HJ]

Looks like it is going to be a good turn out...

 

[TechMech]

I'm still coming to this, however, I might get caught up working that weekend as we're doing a big email migration, but i'll know more by mid next week whether it's going ahead or not.

If all is well, i'm gonna try and get my mate to come as well

Iirc its a 45 miler; I believe there is a couple of shortcuts if you needed back early, the one that springs to mind is the left before the Carron Valley reservoir which takes you straight back to Stirling; perhaps locals could advise better

 

[eldudino]

It's about 45miles, I'd not included you because you'd said earlier that you wouldn't make it - despite it being set up so we can have a good look at this new bike of yours!

There's not too many short-cuts to be honest other than going straight back to Stirling from Kippen. It's about 35miles that way I think.

 

[HJ]

So the question is will sleekitcollie's new Pinarello be there??

 

[HonestMan1910]

Two new bikes from Winchburgh if sleekitcollie turns up

 

[Scoosh]

What is it ?

Maybe, if he can get a dog-sitter....

What kind of dug is it?
