Good to see you again TechMech & scook!
I appear to be "in possession" of the Northern Relay Jersey now, attempted to take a handover photo, but the guys were too scared to be touch it again, in case they were left with it

.
So who wants it next?
There are a few Edinburghers (old and new) who didn't get a chance when it first arrived here a year ago, + the Winchburgh & western contingent ... any offers? It didn't make any progress north of Perth, so we'll try and send it west ...
In case you haven't heard about the jersey relays, there are a couple of threads in the Cafe ("pinned" at the top of the 1st page, one for the official relay progress & another for discussing practical things, such as where to meet for the next handover). The deal is: You sign it and carry it (by bike!) to the next handover!
Loch Leven's Larder is a great place for CC Ecosse meetings, plenty of space if you arrive early, no need to reserve tables, and lovely food!
The return journey was "interesting", HJ and I thought we'd skirted past the worst of the "isolated showers" near Kinross, but another one caught up with us, and stayed with us until Crossgates, with flooded roads (there's even a weather warning for the area on the met office website now

). On leaving Crossgates, it was like somebody had turned a tap off, and the roads were completely dry until Inverkeithing. We managed to create sizeable puddles when wringing out our socks, but the jersey stayed dry, safely tucked away, phew!
Did you guys manage to stay dry-ish?

Sorry to miss you HLaB! There were lots of bikes at the loch-facing side of the cafe ...
