The thing is, that the original Linlithgow ride was shortened as many at that time (namely me) found the climbs a little too challenging. Might be nice to revisit it now though, and see how it compares

Missed the Linlithgow one last year and am not available for any of the dates on the Doodle, so I'll miss it again.

Just asked for the 9th.
Anyway, regardless, just tell me when and where and myself and the tank will be there (with me quite possibly not knowing what I'm getting myself into!).

You didn't miss that much of a climb, would you like to do the navigation this time? All you need is a GPS and pair of sun glasses...

I'm still a "newbie" but if my fitness continues to gradually increase I might be tempted to come along! My biggest concern would be holding all you atheletes up at my slowish pace!As I live in Falkirk, I wouldn't have to travel too far either. You coils always route it past my house in Grangemouth-got plenty of beer in the fridge!!

This is not an issue, no one get left behind. As the resident lantern rouge I have personal experience of this rule.

On a CC ride it doesn't matter what you ride, so long as you do. These are friendly social rides not club training rides, no one gets left behind, it is about having fun, not speed

Did my first CC ride on a Sirrus Sport I now ride a Tricross which is not the lightest bike on the planet. Fun before speed (phrase stolen from themightyw).
Don't worry, there is a cunning plan to rein in the faster cyclists.joemaxi said:
They are told where we are going but not the actual route ... so they have to stop for everyone to catch up at each junction !

... and HLaB always uses his GPS, so there is lots of re-routing
